Meanwhile, over with the young and functional group, Ivy and Jinkx are writing lyrics and working out harmonies while Jade is getting HELLA intimidated being in a group with them. She tries to add some lyrics but is too meek to really defend her ideas. Ivy admits in interview that she’d have been fine working just with Jinkx since Jade’s been coasting and Jade admits in interview that it’s a little demoralizing when your own friends “underestimate” you. Or, you know, perfectly estimate your skills that you overestimate. Potato, mediocre.
Finally, the assholes. Detox and Roxxxy are all “You’re pretty,” “No, YOU’RE pretty,” “No, WE’RE ALL AWESOME,” and generally riding the hubris wave as long and hard as they can, while a Frankenbyte by Alaska suggests that she’s feeling insecure being the only member of Rolaskatox who hasn’t won a challenge, but I’m going with the editors cut out the part where she admits that Rotox really can be overbearing.
Asshole Power – ACTIVATE!
Hello, hello, hello! Ru’s here for his Tim Gunn visits and asks how his little singer/songwriters are doing. They all do that stupid Mariah finger in the ear/hand flap thing and Ru doesn’t have the heart to tell them they look ridiculous so he just heads over to Coco and Alyssa instead. Ru asks who’s a singer and Coco feebly says she’s going to “try to bring it to church.” Alyssa, fully aware of her strengths and weaknesses says she’s just hoping to bring it to the “Jack in the Box down the street.”
Ru asks to hear a bit of their section and Alyssa wasn’t kidding but…Coco kinda sucks, too. Not that she’d admit it when she can make faces at Alyssa. Then they recite their lyrics and Ru’s all “Um, yeah. Just remember make it fun,” knowing full well they won’t.
On to Ivy, Jinkx and Jade. Ru jokes that it’s like Wilson Philips is back together and they’re all thinking “I’M NOT CARNIE,” (that’s Vicky). Ru asks if any of them sing. Why yes. Ivy’s classically trained, Jinkx is a professional singer and Jade…sings in the car. Jade says she’s going to “freestyle it” so Ru can throw an anvil at her, saying this is a competition, you have to plan something out. Ivy agrees with Ru in interview and calls Jade a “floater.”
You know what else is called a floater? Fill in that blank, Jade.
With their work coming together so smoothly Ru asks why come Michelle’s such a bitch to Jinkx. Jinkx politics it that they have different ideas on what glamour is and promises it will show up on the runway. Ru wants to tweak at least one of them a little bit and says there are some fierce queens there so she has to find a way to steal the spotlight. Jinkx weakly agrees so it’s on to the assholes.

Bye, bye, Jade. On to better things, like starring in the Jodi Arias story. She’d be perfect in that role.
Did anyone else notice Jinxx yawning on the runway? I thought I saw her do it and Michelle made a WTF face. I waited for her to call Jinxx out on it, but it never happened. I am sure it was because of her narcolepsy so it was not something she could help. So I would just overlook it as a judge. Wondered if I hallucinated it.
@april-i noticed that, too, along with michelle’s reaction. my thought was that it was on purpose, because she was playing ‘rich bitch’, and it coincided with her saying she’s just so over it-something to that affect. but i did think michelle was going to call jinx out on it.
after jinx, alyssa is my fave. at least she’s self aware and doesn’t pout, and i love her crazy face and expressions (both facial and verbal). i think she was willing to play this whole fued with coco thing for camp and laughs (like when she was teasing coco about her make-up), but coco is so far up her own butt, she takes everything so seriously. i hope she’s next to go.
Somehow this episode escaped my DVR, I’ll have to look for it on On Demand and come back to enjoy this on Monday!
xoxoxo
@juddfan – my DVR didn’t tape it either. I had to watch it on LOGO online.
I always watch them on logotv.com.
I knew Jade would get sent home soon, she just always coasted along in the middle. BUT her lipsync was one of the most surprising things I’ve seen on the show in a while. Girl was GOOD. I’m sure as a performer, she’ll do well. Plus, as much as I hated her attitude, she’s gorgeous.
Coco is annoying the shit out of me, Alyssa (as much as she can annoy me to) was trying so hard to make things work and Coco was having none of it. Come onnnnnnn.
I didn’t like Jinkx’s runway at all. I get what she was going for, but her makeup was almost as bad as last week, the outfit and wig were not high-glamour, at least not the kind that Michelle is looking for, and I really didn’t like her yawning.
I know why she did it, but still…it just wasn’t the right thing at the time.
I wish she would make good friends with Ivy and get some makeup tips.
Remember how tragic PhiPhi looked at the beginning of the season last year? By the end, she looked so much better all around, because she got help from Kenya Michaels with her makeup.
My only irritation with Alaska is that I don’t see her trying enough. I think part of why she makes everything into a joke or just plain gives up is because she’s afraid to put everything into it and end up looking foolish (which is ridiculous because she’s a freaking drag queen), or failing. The only exception I can think of is the ballet challenge. And I guess she took a risk on the kid show challenge too, even though it didn’t pay off.
But generally, she doesn’t put herself out there enough, especially in the mini-challenges. I know that they aren’t as important as elimination challenges, but they matter because they are still an opportunity to show Ru who you are and what you can do. She really should be less self-conscious and relax.
I’m glad that Jade went home because she’s beautiful but lame. But I was also very pleasantly surprised by how good her lipsync was. Coco is an excellent lipsyncer and given her age, I think she just had a much better connection to it, so I didn’t expect Jade to actually stay, but it was far from the blowout that I expected.
I would agree with Vallegirl that Rotox brings out the worst in each other. They are much better peopl when not paired off together. Or at least Detox is.
Coco needs to go. As much as Jade had been coasting, I was honestly a little surprised she went home. This was Coco’s second time in the bottom, Jade’s first. And Coco has had some serious attitude issues, that she has been called out for on the runway, a couple of times. Unacceptable behavior. She’s gosta go soon!
Every week, I love Jinkx more. She’s such a doll. I get the “glamor” that she’s trying to portray. She needs to understand that what Michelle is looking for, is MODERN glamor, not vintage. While I think her vintage glamor is beautiful, it’s not what the judges are asking of her.
I have to wonder if Alaska being on this show so soon after Sharon winning was a mistake. It seems that she is comparing herself to Sharon inside her own head. She might have done better on a later show.
Jade is truly a beautiful queen and I hope she goes far in her career.
Now I wasn’t a Jinx fan at the beginning but damn I love that girl.
Can’t wait for the new episode! I already saw the first 10 minute preview and Reading is FUNDAMENTAL dahlings!
This could be Alaska’s challenge to win because she can be pretty funny.
“Reading is FUNDAMENTAL dahlings!”
Omg, Alyssa Edwards and Ivy Winters <3333
Ivy's smile… I'm gonna die!
