We begin our week of Drag Race with the aftermath of last week’s send-home of Team Brown Flowers. At least we’ll be able to figure out what the holy hell the queens are talking about now that Tammie is gone.
Latrice realizes that it was her fault they were in the bottom 2, so she felt it was up to her to save the day. Manila is upset that they won the first week, but got knocked off their pedestal last week. Raven, shit-stirrer extraordinaire, asks Manila if there was ever a moment during the LSFYL that she wanted to push the button. Manila, cool as a cucumber, replies that she’d gone into it telling Latrice she was saving the button because she knew they’d be staying.
Jujubee thinks, as do I, that Alexis should be sucking on some Yara Jr. because Yara is the only reason they did well and won. Just to prove Alexis’s unnecessary confidence, when cutie-patootie Shannel points out that Charo was “everything”, Alexis is taken aback. Girl, you don’t REALLY believe your Shakira was noticeable? It wasn’t even horrible. It was blah. “Blah” and “drag queen” absolutely do not go together.
Ru pops up to give us a She-Mail full of Candid Camera hints. She wants them to take photos of themselves as sexy, hot-blooded hetero males. I foresee like 2 or 3 of these ladies pulling this off and Chad is definitely not one of them. He hits that feeling home by wearing eyeshadow facial hair and quoting Buffalo Bill.
Did anyone notice that Chad had to do this reverse, as though his serial killer secret is shaving beards off dudes and gluing it onto his face?
I’m dying watching these queens try to act manly and butch. Yara takes a classic Facebook pose of a pulled back button down, ultra-low-rise jeans, sideways hat, and big gold chain in the mirror. What makes me sad is that is a pose of a modern-day hetero male. Long gone are the days of Clint Eastwood and Sean Connery. Now, it’s all Justin Beiber and that dude with the hair in that bad Next Stage or 45 Degrees or whatever.
Shannel is getting me all excited with his super-cuteness. Alexis looks like that one guy from Backstreet Boys and Chad and Raven look like gay guys trying to look straight. The winners of the challenge are Yara and Alexis! I find it hilarious that the queen of queens is judging this mini-competition instead of having straight women judge. Raven is all disappointed, but there can’t possibly be any way he could believe that he looked anything but gay in his pic.
Girl, don’t be playin’ games with my heart, now.
Yarlexis wins a membership to the Miracle Bra for Penises undies of the month club. I foresee many a bulge in their futures.
And now for the Candid Camera part of the real competition. They’ll have to pull a series of outrageous pranks on regular people on the streets. One queen will be hiding somewhere off site to tell the other queen what to do. It’s basically the premise of Impractical Jokers on TruTv (which is anything but True). The crazier the stunt, the higher the points.

Great recap!
Latrice is fierce on stage and with makeup and her look, but she ( as he) lacks confidence and self esteem, and it effected her. What she said in the workroom about not having confidence and using drag as a way to feel beautiful said alot.
Yarlexis is all Yar and no Lexis …i mean she dressed her and used the contacts and similar makeup ! She is un- pageant- queening her !
Shad is professional and polished all around- that’s it…hard to beat
Rujubee- has personality and confidence enough for all ( and them some) That could hurt them tho
Ugh Tati…annoying( so glad she wasn’t an all-star!)
That screen grab of michelle and rachel dratch …lol…
Michelle is morphing into a drag queen.
The right team got sent home. Manila was doing a lot better than Latrice but it is a team thing. I still find Manila annoying. Yay for Yarlexis! They are doing fairly well. I am proud of them! I don’t like the other queens dissing them. They are still my favorites. Janice Dickerson is a nut. I love it.
I am sorry but Manila’s LSFYL sucked. She just makes cross eyes and crazy faces. That is not sexy or killing it whatsoever. Juju schooled her.
Is Michelle wearing a breast plate?? LOL
MsMmmm seriously!!! Thats what I thought in that picture! Those are the kind of tatas only money can buy!
Michelle admits that they’re better boobs through science. But, yeah…that was some infrastructure she was showing.
I am sorry but Michelle Visage’s outfits and look gets worse and worse. She critiques the Queens, please girl.
Michelle has repeatedly said that she is a drag queen in a woman’s body, and this episode really hammered that home. Those massive mammaries looked more rubberized and artificial than any of the queens’ breastplates have ever looked.
Sad to see Latrila go home over Yarlexis.
I usually enjoy the fuzzy pink box surprises, but I didn’t really see the point of Tatiana reading everyone. It seemed really disconnected to have her just show up out of the blue like that. Personally, I always enjoyed when the \library\ when they get to read a bitch face-to-face. It’s always in good humor and everyone laughs. This seemed kind of mean-spirited and I didn’t feel right about it.
And geeezus…is it just me, or are the pit crew’s bulges getting freakishly large? What is Ru feeding those boys!!!
Great recap, Sugarbush. Thank you!
It was heart breaking to see Mama Trice and Mz. Luzon sashay away. I was actually surprised that Manila picked Latrice twice in the first episode. However, I thought she was really smart to picked one of the most loved queens on the show ever. I loved watching their two different styles meshing to create a sisterly bond. Incredibly sweet.
Manila’s outfits are always polished and intriguing. Girl has some fierce fashion sense. I wish she would have been able to guide Latrice a little better.
Latrice went from Season 4 straight to Drag U then right back to AllStars. Maybe Lashawn Beyond just didn’t have enough time to put together some new outfits for her to compete on the same fashion level.
Before the lipsynch began, I loved watching Raven cuddle up to Latrice.
Alas, each week I feel sad at watching the queens sashay away. *le sigh*
What confused me was Shad scored the most points in the \Queens Behaving Badly\ challenge, therefore they won. I would have thought that the team with the least amount of points would lip-sync for their lives. I listened to an interview with Manila and Team Manila had the second highest score. Watching \Untucked\, Alexis admitted they had the least amount of points. Hmmmm …
Side Note:
Photos of the queens as queens and as sans drag along with their boy names. I didn’t know all of them. All of the queens on all of the seasons.

Damn damn damn, no trip to la biblioteca. I want to go.
I love Chad and she looked amazingly gorgeous out there on the street, but that was kind of grimey what she said about Shannel. It’s super true, but damn…she could have tempered it by saying that Shannel also brings something to table. Nope, she was just like…absolutely. Can’t wait to cut this albatross from my neck. I mean…that’s your partner though smh.
I just knew Latrice was gonna drag down Ms. Manila. Although that lip sync was not it….too much crazy, not enough sultry bad girl. And I feel like you should never get in front of Ru and just start deconstructing your outfit from the jump. I feel like he hates that.
I know I do.
Ruining the illusion and shit.
Did you guys see the full-length pictures of the judges panel on facebook?
When I say Michelle had on some tragic pants to go with that crazy top and that hair….those pants gave her that weird bulge of fat right above the cooch, and then they had the nerve to be highwaters at the same time. But she tried to come for Raven’s panty. I like Michelle, but she has no room to talk about anyone else’s clothes. NONE.
Ru ain’t shit either, for coming in every day looking stunning and then letting his best friend sit there next to him looking like that. He knows this shit is gonna be on tv!
I thought her boobies looked wonderful though.
Is it just me or the episode was pretty lackluster. It felt like watching two mini challenges back to back.
The last time in this show the queens were sent on the streets (the strippers episode in season 2), it was just a part of the challenge and they had to create and perform a group dance routine and a solo routine as well.
Thank god that bitch Ru was there to inject some necessary drama by asking her favorite question : Who should go home ? And inviting Janice Dickinson was a genius move. She was at her best : crazy, loud and completely drunk.
And Michelle dressed as Lady Tata… I was waiting for one of the queens to pull a Tammie Brown and read her ass for the second week in a row but alas, it did not happen.
So many cringeworthy moments on Untucked :
* Tatianna’s whole shtick : she said some true things but seriously if you’re gonna read a bitch, do it to her face.
* Alexis getting more and more bitter each time a queen confirms that yes, Yara Sofia is carrying her. She was sending so much shade and excuses left and right, I started to have a case of second-hand embarassment.
* And Chad, there is a thing called hubris, look into it.
And finally I was sad to see Manila and Latrice go but Manila sucked during that LSFYL… the ugly wig, the not blended enough/too white make-up… she looked like a ghoulish mess on that stage.
Well at least we’ll still have Mac Arthur Park (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tatoplO2A70).
I heard they are doing the library minichallenge this week. So excited for it! Juju can read a bitch!
I died when Manila pulled her picture from the wall and the other fell like she really just couldn’t give two shits about it. While I totally think Latrila was perfect together, Latrice really did hold back Manila. I really want Logo to give a FULL season to All Stars and fix this team injustice. Manila really should have won or at least been in the finals again, not sent at the halfway point. But I think you hit the nail on the head saying how hard it is seeing any team go now that Mimi and Tammie are gone since everyone wanted them to go anyways.
Hopefully, now, Manila will address her wonky padding. I love her and think she’s a great, young queen but her makeup can go horribly wrong some times and her padding always makes me sad. Juju pads a big juicy ass but she always balances it out for an hourglass figure but Manila, bless, always gives herself a pear shape. He’s a thin guy so there’s no excuse for it.
Where’s Raja to explain the power of illusion and corseting to get the most feminine shape out of her natural body? Manila’s tall so she could pull off looks similar to Raja rather than attaching two foam pillows to her ass.
But I’ll defend Tammie and point out that it was likely Nina and not Tammie who sunk them in the Gaff In challenge. Tammie was “funny” for those who like her act and per the other queens she was pretty solid in the lip synch, too. I love Nina and she’s still one of my favorites of all time, but they lost because of her, not Tammie.
^ But Tammie easily had the worst look on the runway that night and tried to come for Michelle (which I’m sure didn’t help her case), so it balances.
They both did poorly that week and deserved to be sent home.
I think Nina would have lasted longer if it were an individual season because her runway would have saved her.
But Tammie didn’t hit the main challenge the way she needed to (she was Tammie herself, not Tammie Faye Messner up there) and the judges didn’t like her 60′s look. So she would have been going home at that point anyway.
Man I do not understand why Ru would do this team nonsense.
What was he thinking?
Juju’s name is Airline??
What a tragic ending!! Losing Manila was painful. I love Latrice, but girl, Manila beats you hands down every time. Her LSFYL was way off though. Crazy eyes and faces don’t make a winner (not all the time anyways). JuJu beat her fairly. I was very sad that Yarlexis didn’t go home.Yara is definitely carrying the team and Alexis needs to learn to take some criticism better. How has she made it this far without hearing worse comments?
Untucked was honest, but uncomfortable. I LOVE CHAD! Such a class act. And I think by him saying, “absolutely” that he was just being honest. Sure, he could have said it a little nicer probably, but he was being truthful.
And Michelle’s boobs are out of control, girl! Get those things in check before they take over the stage!
