With all the preliminaries out of the way, it’s finally time to “crown” the winner…

Please note the size of the crown… And the winner is…

Wha-ha-happened to the crown? Psych. Since Ru didn’t crown the winner at the reunion Sharon didn’t get her big, fancy crown until the viewing party. Instead, her Ouija planchette obscured her tiara. Heh.

Now go home. So, that’s it for another season of RuPaul’s Drag Race. I would have liked an honest ending to the reunion where the winner knew she won, and in retrospect it was kind of unfair to Chad not to tell them in advance that they’d shoot the different endings because she had that moment of victory snatched, but overall, it was a good season. Just next season, let the reunion be live so the reaction is sincere.

And thanks to everyone who took the time to read my recaps. I used to be the fan just waiting for the recaps to post in past seasons so let me just say it’s been my pleasure to write these recaps and I hope you enjoyed them.

    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?

    “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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
