There was another leaked playlist of potential lip sync songs. Looks like we’ll finally be getting Broken Heels now that Alexandra is a judge.

Loving the fact that Sophie is a judge and they won’t be using one of her songs if this list has all the songs on it.

Wasn't rumored to be La Grande Dame & Tia the final top 02?

I’m think everyone rumoured to be in the final 4 has been rumoured to be amongst the final 2. However, from reading the tea on Reddit, it seems that it’s
Tia and Hannah
but I guess we’ll see.
 
I would have liked a top 2 where one of the contenders is from a non English speaking version of the show.
Shows progress and that drag is a worldwide art form. Plus I want one of Nicky Dolls fierce bitches to be in Ru’s winners circle.
 
Any word on how actually good Season 5 is? We've had 2 pretty flat seasons, so would LOVE to have something a little more exciting. The lip sync songs look great and I really hope we get some strong queens for Broken Heels, its what the anthem deserves.

Considering someone dropped out (got kicked out?) So close to filming they couldn't get a replacement (hence 11 queens) and someone else gets kicked out for (being accused of) sexual assault.

It's already feeling pretty dark sided.

This isn't quite tea but I'm expecting Ginger to dominate at Jinkx and Bob levels.

Based on this and the others lists that have leaked, I think they basically gave the UK5 and UKvsTW2 queens the same playlist and just split the songs.
 
Things I've 'heard' through the proverbial grapevine are:

- Somewhat corroborating with @Stradiwhovius , Ru has a big soft spot for Ginger - not sure if it'll all make the edit, but it's like, Lawrence Chaney levels. And from my general encounters with her/from people who know her personally, I'm honestly not mad at it. She's really good and seems very nice.

- Tomara is potentially going to get the 'I didn't know I had skills in comedy etc but I'm actually quite good' edit. I imagine they might portray her as a 'hardened, fierce performer' who ends up softening and discovering other talents throughout the competition.

- Tomara and Cara have a proper argument at some point during filming (might've been a sewing challenge if memory serves me correctly). Again, not sure how much will make the edit, but it apparently gets very personal - which makes sense to a degree, given that they've been on the same circuit for a few years so know each other well.

- I'm not sure Cara is terribly enamoured with her experience. I imagine a part of that could be down to her and Tayce basically being partners in crime for many years before Tayce blew up from the show, and I suspect Cara might not have the same post-show trajectory, but we'll see.

- Dede will almost certainly get a 'living up to Krystal' edit, which is predictable, but makes a lot of sense. They started together, they paint almost identically, and Krystal was a winner. It's a shame, as I've seen Dede a lot over the years and would argue they're a more inventive performer (they often lean a bit more theatrical/'classic' drag), and a more skilled seamstress. I imagine a lot of this storyline will come forward in episode 1, since she has a mishap.

I just looked up the S5 spoilers and it was a wild ride that made me a lot less excited for the season. My first episode hunch had Cara, Alexis and Banksie down as clear frontrunners I.........

This seems to have been teased in the preview for next week.

Literally same.

I was sure Cara and Banksie were nailed on finalists.

Ginger Johnson I thought was one of the worst and typical 1st/2nd out queen. I’ll be Intrigued how she evolves over the season as I hope it isn’t obvious favouritism.
 
The fact that three of the next four eliminations are Banksie, Cara and Kate is about to make this season hurt a little.

I agree. I think it will sting more with Kate and Banksie going. I feel Cara’s time is coming to a natural end as she hasn’t really delivered in the way I thought she would.

Watch the fandom deride the season from now as these three go by one by one and Vicki survives longer than Banskie and Dede’s storyline is basically the lip sync assassin of it all.
 
Have we seen Dede lil sync? Maybe she's great.

It's a shame for Banksie to go so soon as she's felt like a highlight but I can't see a rusical being her strong point based on the girl group.

I also think Vicki and Cara leaving before Kate will help soften that blow too. They've both been running out of steam. Kate has been great but there's definitely some room for improvement in those runways.
