Seeing an opening, Ru asks if any of the other queens have something to say to the top three and raw-nerve Jiggly admits that Phi Phi’s sabotage hurt because she thought they were friends, she had Phi Phi stay with her, and then to learn how she got played hurts. Phi Phi, for her part, offers the classic non-apology apology and says it was just the game. Man, she may be even worse than we saw.
Phi Phi’s response to Jiggly’s tears. Willam pipes up to tell us that she may be an egomaniac, but Phi Phi needs to be studied because she’s almost sociopathic in the way she can say it was a character for the show and still sign autographs taking cheap shots at Willam and Sharon. Then she says that while she didn’t retaliate at the time because she didn’t care and “indifference is worse than hate,” she’s not going to RuPaulogize for anything she’s saying now. And by the way RuPaul laughs and tells her she’s going to steal that word and name her next album RuPaulogize, I think we’ve found Ru’s heir.
I may be mad as a hornet, but I look good and can still quip with the best of them.
Oh, bitch… Oh, bitch… With the evisceration of Phi Phi completed, it’s time to hand Latrice her Miss Congeniality sash.
I hope that’s forced perspective because Pit Crew Shawn isn’t that wee. Condragulations! You win a trip anywhere in the US! Now wave like a pageant queen.
Time to talk to the top three queens one last time before crowning the winner.
Chad’s thrilled to have been there, and is ready to win the crown but first, she brought her lovely partner Adam who made her gown for the evening. Ru says she wants one in every color, then asks Chad what winning would mean. Chad, true to her classy form, says it would be a final validation of her 20 years of hard work and an honor to represent Ru and the show. Ru thanks Chad for elevating the competition by being such a class act.
Sharon says she wanted to show the underground/outsider art side of drag…and win $100K doing it…but is surprised at how many people she’s touched along the way. Sharon introduces Alaska and her mother Joan who is completely at ease with her spooky son. When asked what winning would mean to Sharon, she gets emotional and says it would be an honor and that she wants to represent for the weirdos and the kids who get picked on so they know “when in doubt, freak ‘em out.” That boos are just applause from ghosts, and the audience boos…affectionately.
Finally, Phi Phi. She sidesteps what an awful person she was and just says she wants to be a role model for other kids who’ve been through an abusive childhood. Yeah, maybe as a role the kids won’t want to emulate. But Phi Phi finally shows some genuine emotion when she talks about how her father hates her being on the show, but as long as she’s happy and loves herself, fuck what anyone else thinks. Then she says her mother’s there to support her and Phi Phi’s mom is very sweet and, like I said in the minicap, proves a mother’s love is unconditional, even if she thought Phi Phi applied her makeup with a trowel. Phi Phi says winning would prove that the ends justify the means and basic human decency doesn’t mean shit as long as you get what you want. At least that’s what I heard.

I didn’t know who the crazy face plaid painted queen was so thanks for telling me it was Raja. I should have known. His style is avant garde, but I am not always a fan of how out there it always is just to be out there. I know I will get my butt kicked for that because I know all you guys adore him.
I so want Rupaul’s gown. I just would totally commit murder to get his closet.
Alisa Summers was so pretty. I thought she was one of the prettiest queens this season and I would have liked to see more of her. Sometimes the first queen to go just doesn’t get a fair shake as far as you don’t see what they can really do in such a short time.
No kidding about Milan not getting it. I was like “yeah right bitch you KNOW Rupaul ain’t gonna snatch her wig off!!!!!” Milan made a pretty drag queen, but yeah………the rest was not so much great….
I know everyone thought the Princess was obnoxious, but maybe he was as horrified by Flintstones realness in the final three as I was. Or the thing Madame LaQueer wore that had Michelle swearing off green. Or Milan purposely tearing off his wig, dress, whatever else while PhiPhi’s wig, shoes, and boobs were likely to go flying to the four winds every time he did much of anything.
VGirl, your recaps simply kept us GOING throughout the season! And this was your *ahem* crowning glory. You hit every highlight (and ya know that if you missed something one of us sharp-eyed Gasmii would call it).
Gonna do the RuPaul U?
I finally started catching up on this season. I wished I could have kept up with them so I could have been more involved with the comments…oh well next year.
Please teel me you are recapping again next year vallegirl.
PhiPhi was RANK. Ugh
I am so happy for Sharon!
“The ends justify the means and basic human decency doesn’t mean shit as long as you get what you want. At least that’s what I heard.” Vallegirl, your take on Phi Phi’s philosophy on the stab ‘em in the back school of life was perfect. And kudos for calling it for Sharon from the beginning.
Vallegirl, thanks for all the fabulously funny recaps! I’m missing the show all ready…all stars cant come fast enough.
Ha! Chuckling at my desk, gun kata.
Thank you for all your recaps Vallegirl!!
You better be doing next season and all stars! It’ll be fab and hopefully we’ll never meet anyone as awful as PhiPhi again!
Thank you, Vallegirl! It was a great season of reading your recaps. You even made Phical Matter more palatable.
Can’t wait to see M*Fg Miss Latrice Royale on Drag U
And I wish that Chad could’ve won as well. There’s something so polished, so elegant and beautiful about her. IMHO she just jumped over Raja as the most complete drag queen contestant. I hope to see her in person some day.
Aw, thanks everyone. Your kind words are always much appreciated.
And if anyone’s watching Drag U I will be recapping that, as well.
I tried watching Drag U and just can’t get into it. But, I’m giving it another go since my Auntie LatriceMotherFuckingRoyale will be on it. I so happy Sharon won, even though I would have been equally happy of Chad won. I’m sorry while I understand PeePee is shorter than the other ladies, they still looked more polished/regal in their clothes than she did. I didn’t mention it in the mini-cap but Latrice looks like she lost a few pounds. I must say with Jiggly is much cuter.
don’t know if this is true but supposedly Sharon’s beer stein dress came from Party City – heh. looked on their web site and couldn’t find it but sure would be fabulous if it isn’t a fable. Party City should sell one. it was fierce.
We will be there. Here? It’s all so confusing. But we love you, VGurl!!!!!!!!!!!
So happy that Latrice will get to be on Drag U. She’s perfect for that actually, with her randomly amazing nuggets of wisdom and fierceness.
She looked so beautiful at the reunion too. Her face was much less orange.
Also happy that she got Miss Congeniality, although I don’t understand why they only could spring for a ticket to anywhere in the U.S. She can’t even go to Canada with it? For real? That shit better at least include Hawaii and Alaska, because if they mean the continental U.S., I would have thrown a damn fit.
Best part of the episode had to be when Willam randomly read Phi Phi for filth in front of everyone. The only way it could have been better was if everyone went in her face and screamed on her the way that she screamed on everyone else the whole season. And why does Phi Phi insist on wearing onesies all the damn time? Does she know that doesn’t have Carmen Carrera’s body and can’t get away with that shit? Also, this is Ru Paul’s Drag Race / finale/ bitch…put on a damn ball gown or something. She looked straight up foolish next to Sharon and Chad. I wonder if her momma is ashamed of Phi Phi’s behavior. Her face looked good though, I’ll give her that.
Chad and Adam are the cutest thing I have ever seen. I want to go to their house and live with them so Chad can be my mom and Adam can design me ridiculous giraffe cutout outfits to wear to work.
And thank you for the amazing recaps this season vallegirl!
I know Party City does have a beer stein costume or they probably do. I have seen them at Halloween. She might have fancied one up or designed it after that one. I thought it was fabulous.
I only watched one epi of Drag U and was also not a huge fan. Maybe I should give it more of a chance.
Hehe, Jessi.
When they get through studying PP’s crazy maybe they can then study why drag elements are always leaping off his body.
I just discovered your recaps and they are fucking amazing. DEAD ON since the recap of the first show. Kenya constantly moving and being annoying, Jiggly mouth breathing, Willam being hilarious, Sharon rocking, Phi Phi never admitting or accepting fault – damn, you’re on!
Bookmarking you, girl.
