Hello, Hello, Hello! It’s time for makeovers on RuPaul’s Drag Race. But not on Phi Phi’s wonky eye and Boca Raton divorcée makeup. No, it’s the annual episode where the queens are tasked with putting enough slap on some guy’s face and throwing as much glitter, sequins and marabou at him to hide the fact that he’s a dude. Then make him wear heels and dance so everyone remembers.
But first, a queen gets to come back into the competition and the final four revolt, putting on protest signs. Not that Ru cares. His show, his rules so sorry ’bout it. Time for the mini-challenge. Queens are all given “Papa” teddy bears and have to transform them into beautiful and glamorous “Mama” bears. Each queen remakes her bear in her own image so, yeah, Sharon isn’t winning this challenge but the winner is a surprise. Then the bears are collected because they’re being auctioned off and the proceeds will be donated to the Matthew Shepard Foundation.
Ru’s not sentimental, though, so with that out of the way, it’s time for the main challenge. Transforming DILF’s (Daddies I’d Like to…Frock) into MILF’s. And to make it fun, they’re all construction workers, except one who’s a prison guard. Fun. But wait. That’s not all. Runway category is: Baby Bump Realness, so queens and DILF’s will all be sporting pregnancy pillows under their drag. Oh, and by the way, they’ll also be choreographing a sexy striptease before the runway.
Most of the guys are pretty open and game, if completely lumbering and uncoordinated, except for Rick. Who’s as taciturn as he is pretty…ish. And Mike, who is probably the prison guard because that dude was crazy. And a little scary but claimed he was laughing…on the inside while calling Chad a bitch on the outside. This brings out a street-fighting, profane side of Chad that is oddly appealing. But Mike’s contrite the next day, so it’s all good. Except he’s still a hatchet face so it’s not all good for his queen.
The stripteases are all pretty awkward and clumsy and the runway is just…weird…and it wasn’t as much fun as last year, but I’ll credit Slava with making last year so much fun. Because I’ve met Slava and he wasn’t kidding about how friendly and affectionately “European” he is. The lip synch is pretty great and showcases two very different styles but in the end the right decision was made.
Full recap in a few days. Until then, you can catch up on the last recap here.

Wow, Vallegirl! That was FAST! Thank you!!
I have mixed emotions about this episode.
I loved PhiPhi’s dad. I loved his personality, he was so kind and open. He even made PhiPhi look like a human being. He was awesome!
I think Sharon’s “DILK” was akin to PhiPhi in that he didn’t know how to deliver a joke w/o being offensive. He seemed to be trying too hard.
I’m Team Sharon now that Willam is gone but I have to admit … I was sort of put off by Sharon this epi. Her stating that her DILF was embarrassing her by being too out there seemed “odd” or hipocritical almost (?!).
Latrice and her DILF … their laugh!! I could listen to them all day!
The returning queen = Yellow lipstick … No gurrl … just no.
*hypocritical
Chad is one fierce bitch and I’ll bet Sharon’s DILK didn’t expect to be stood up to like that. He had to cave.
I really enjoyed watching men who are so sure of and at ease with their masculinity that they would become drag for a day.. or two.
Speaking of shameless whores, P2′s little act in front of the judges absolutely gagged me . Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Is the guy in the front row on the far right side Sharon’s “DILK”?

I KNEW I had seen Mike before. SexyPanda clocked him on his aggressiveness on Millionaire Matchmaker: http://www.tvgasm.com/recaps/millionaire-matchmaker-recap-mamas-mixer.html
He was Patti’s “bad date”.
Ahhh! Great call, cbc-cca! Interesting that on Patti’s date he said he was cop and then admitted he wasn’t a cop, but a sheriff’s deupty. Then on RPDR, he said he was a prison guard. He’s a loon! Guess he’s just a brash guy who loves being on tv any chance he can get.
As much as I hate Phi Phi, I really liked her DILF and I thought she did the best job on that challenge. A lot of the pregnant bellies were really off…..like it looked too stretched out or just not flattering. Phi Phis little flowy dresses are the best for pregnant women and it looked cute.
Can’t understand how guys like Brash Mike get so much air time. What a tool. The millionaire recap was fascinating. I wasn’t anywhere near him and I wanted him to back off. Ish.
Do these famewhore wannabes have agents? Anybody know? Of course it helps to live in NY or LA.
The leaving queen of this episode did a really awful job with the song for the LSFYL. She just looked psychotic up there.
I wasn’t really put off with Sharon’s outbursts. I know how hard it can be to work with someone like that. Especially when he went after Chad who is the person Sharon seems to be closest to in the house.
PhiPhi is still annoying.
Yes the queen who left did WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much. The judges truly enjoyed the winner of the LSFYL, grins were abound
I thought the losing queen this week seemed kind of out of it the whole time – like she wasn’t really invested. The winner of the LSFYL was beyond question. I, too, enjoyed the DILF’s and their attitudes and willingness to accept something very different – especially the ones who tucked – AND allowed their queen to tuck them!
Verrry interesting about Sharon’s DILF – that guy was scary humorless, but during Untucked part of him seemed to be truly empathetic to the queens. An enigma, indeed…..
Although I eventually did, I was hesistant to watch Untucked because I couldn’t stand one more second of that obnoxious asshole Mike. I don’t blame Sharon in the least for feeling embarrassed. Her calling him “out there” was a delicate, professional way of saying “inappropriate, tasteless loser”. (And this bonehead is a grandfather? His family…I’ll bet THEY were plenty embarrassed.) And something tells me that Chad has seen it/done it all before, and sista knows how to stand up. Yet, she did it with class, as usual.
Oddly enough, I didn’t have a problem with the team that won. They did a very good job, and yes, I credit the nice daddie for bringing out a little humanity that we don’t often see in THAT ONE.
And the winner of the LSFYL? She absolutely killed it. Less is more, baby. Gurl totally understands how to evoke the proper emotion of a song like that. The queen that left…did too much, moved too fast, and missed the meaning altogether.
Did anybody else pick up on something not quite right with TQTL? Wierd head movements and expressions. Kinda went along witht the way she was on the LSFYL. S-Natch mentioned that she wasn’t really invested, but it seemed like something else was going on.
@snowshoecat I felt the entire cast/show was off!
Sharon clutching her pearls.
Chad getting ready to throw down.
TQTL acting like she was high on crack both on and off the stage.
PhiPhi acting human.
Usually I find the ginger guest judge hysterically funny but the jokes kind of fell flat for me.
The only one who was consistent on last night’s show was Latrice. Behold her awesomeness: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_eH3vDLE5o WOW!!!
PS … You can spot Raja making it rain @ 5:06.
Funny! Esp. the rain. And P2 acting human. What’s with that lately?
I think I was most fascinated with Ru. She looked like the devil. I mean it. I guess it was shadows or something, but she looked like she had horns. Beautiful horns tucked into all that flowing blonde hair.
HA! Devil-Horned Hair gif for you. heh http://www.newnownext.com/rupauls-drag-race-episode-ten-gif/04/2012/
Yeah but I think the winner only does good with certain kinds of LSFYLs. If it was say a fast Britney Spears song or something like that she would not be able to do a good job because she can’t dance and move fast. So it is kinda the luck of the draw on what kinda song you get and if it fits your style or not.
How sweet of you!!!! Many thanks.
I recognized Mike as well. As much as I can’t abide Patti Stanker, I felt for her during that yucky date she had with him. He came off as quite the sleaze in that episode. I guess his MO is to act as crazy and off-putting as he can to insure a lot of camera time. Looks like he’s a professional “reality” show whore. I loved Sharon’s remarks about him and was prepared to kill him myself if he’d been responsible for her sashaying away. He is beyond creepy. I wonder where we’ll see him next. He’s probably been on other shows that I haven’t watched.
I couldn’t agree with you more. On all points.
And just let me add that the yellow lipstick matched the teeth…it was so awful.
@snowshoecat Yeah I felt like they were trying to make me like him. It didn’t work. I’ll give him props for the stuff he can do and that he’s got degress and read books and stuff. But so have I so I know it doesn’t make you smart.
Much less able to do what certain people can do without lifting 1 foot.
Sharon’s DILK is a worse reality showho than that old lie detector dude that shows up on every single show where they make people take a lie detector test.
