Using an Elvira quote as your exit line and thinking the gays won't notice.

I'm assuming she did it because she knew the gays would notice.

 

[Verandi]

The top 2 is so obviously Sasha and Anetra that any other outcome would be a mess.

 

[Dangerous Maknae]

Mistress is also very deserving of the top 2 placement though. But Sasha is definitely going to win, there's no doubt about it.

 

[LPMA]

A potential Sasha/Anetra double-crowning is gaining traction!

 

[Joe.]

Luxx’s lip sync was so chaotic, given how erratic it was and the fact she didn’t know a single word her clips could have been from any part of the song sksks. But for the mess that it was, at least I remembered it, unlike Loosey’s lip sync.

 

[RJF]

I think Luxx is an absolute firecracker but she's such obvious All Stars fodder. Everything still just feels a little rough, but the taste level and talent are there. Touring money after this season will probably sort everything else out.

 

[Bookwormboy]

All others have room to grow and more to show on a All Stars season - as predictable as it may seem Sasha just seems right to win

A little like Jinkx winning you get the top 6 all excellent All Stars castings

 

[Jersey]

It would be one thing if Sasha didn't stomp every week but she pretty much did!

 

[Vasilios]

'She looks like the heads in Easter island'

 

[Sanctuary]

Nah, just crown Sasha ddd. Double-wins feel pointless and lowkey insulting. Only one person can represent a season.

 

[Sleepycat]

I like the idea of a season that crowns the legend and the legend-in-waiting together. I don't think it's insulting, I think it tells a nice story about cross-generational excellence and the way both experience and raw talent are their own kind of magic and both are an important part of drag and artistry in general.

 

[Vasilios]

Lux's lipsync was manic girl that dances with Joey in The One With The Routine meets

Queen!

Yeah. Especially now that there are so many chances to get a crown anyway (All Stars! Vs The World! All Stars again!), it cheapens the deal to be giving two crowns in one season. There can only be one winner. Ties are so low stakes.

 

[Gemini]

We almost got a tie season 6 between Bianca and Adore. That possibility was filmed (and no tie possibility filmed with Courtney... oop) and when you think about it, it makes way more sense for them to save Adore for All Stars.

Sasha is the clear winner here. Sasha has been a clear future winner even before Ru allowed trans women to compete, people would always say "She'd get on, she would win". It's like fulfilling some sort of queer prophecy.
Anetra, Mistress and Luxx will all be lovely All Stars competitors and will absolutely blow us away by the time they get on.

Luxx's drag persona just doesn't feel fully realized yet in the way Mistress, Sasha and Anetra to a lesser degree have theirs nailed down.

Exactly, I've enjoyed the 'bouncy flirty' persona a lot more than the high-fashion one, and I think she shouldn't be attempting to balance the two.

 

[theelusivechanteuse]

Sasha is the only winner. She's a legend and she's proven proficient at Drag Race. That's more than enough.

That said, I'd secretly stan a Mistress win.

 

[Vasilios]

Sasha should win for her Ballroom mini challenge slay alone.
