Lawrence and Bimini should have been a double crowing, they are as equally as amazing as each other in different ways.
In case y’all missed it, there’s new T about the premiere episode (talent show) of UKVSTW: Baga Chipz is Top 2, but loses the lip sync (unknown against who, but Pangina, Mo and Janey are the most likely options). Lemon tap dances and is eliminated. Cheryl sings. Her placement hasn’t been spilled yet but it is likely not great (either Low or BTM2). Overall, this T isn’t surprising. With the amount of production favoring Baga got on UK1, her winning the talent show was obvious even tho her song (that leaked last year) is really boring. I really hope this season isn’t a mess. But it’s not looking great so far.
This is the first season of US Drag Race in a sec where seeing everyone's optimism about the season when you know it's about to be a shitshow from the spoilers is like... Hard to handle. This is why I could never travel back in time. I'd be like "You people don't know how good you have it NOT KNOWING WHAT IS TO COME"
Baga drunkenly bragging about how well she did at a show a few months ago make me think she's very much still in the running for the crown, unfortunately.
The rumor now is that Janey wins both Episode 1 (Talent Show) and Episode 2 (The Ball). If this is true and she gets the chop at Top 5... Delete the whole season smh.
I seriously doubt producers are willing to give Janey two consecutive wins when the short season length already inhibits their ability to craft winners arc for their faves (basically Baga) and established names / fan faves (Jujubee, Monique, Jimbo)
Yeah she did a Pride event in my work as well (I only attended cos it was meant to be Lawrence until the literal last minute) and she hinted at having filmed being crowned alright. The worst timeline.
Jennifer Lopez - Play Ava Max - My Head & My Heart Beyonce - Suga Mama Toni Braxton - Unbreak My Heart Christina Aguilera - Something Got a Hold On Me Whitney Houston - Heartbreak Hotel Dua Lipa - Levitating Olivia Rodrigo - good 4 u Lady GaGa & Beyonce - Telephone There's a lipsynch-based episode further into the season, so that'll probably be a gaggle of Ru's songs.
UK v. World Ep. 1 - Talent Show Top 2: Baga and Janey Janey wins. Ep. 2 - Ball Top 2: Janey and ? Janey wins. This is mad, her elimination must've been shocking surely?
These first two episodes are gonna be a delight to watch. The whole world and the whole cast is gonna underestimate miss Jacké and write her off from the start. Her winning not only the challenge but also the lip sync both times is gonna be a serve like no other and I’m so excited for the world to fall in love with her.
With this new T the final season should look something like this: Episode 1: Talent Show WIN: Janey Jacké TOP2: Baga Chipz HIGH: Pangina Heals SAFE: Mo Heart, Jujubee, Jimbo LOW: Blu Hydrangea BTM2: Cheryl Hole, Lemon ELIM: Lemon Episode 2: Ball/Design challenge WIN: Janey Jacké TOP2: Blu Hydrangea HIGH: Jimbo SAFE: Mo Heart, Pangina Heals LOW: Jujubee BTM2: Baga Chipz, Cheryl Hole ELIM: Cheryl Hole Episode 3: Snatch Game WIN: Baga Chipz TOP2: Jimbo HIGH: Jujubee SAFE: Blu Hydrangea LOW: Mo Heart BTM2: Janey Jacké, Pangina Heals ELIM: Pangina Heals Episode 4: Rusical or Acting challenge WIN: Mo Heart & Jujubee BTM4: Janey Jacké, Blu Hydrangea, Baga Chipz, Jimbo ELIM: Jimbo Episode 5: Rumix WIN: Baga Chipz TOP2: Blu Hydrangea BTM3: Mo Heart, Jujubee, Janey Jacké ELIM: Janey Jacké Episode 6: Finale Baga Chipz: 2 Badges [2x WIN + 1x TOP2] Blu Hydrangea: 0 Badges [2x TOP2] Mo Heart: 1 Badge [1x WIN] Jujubee: 1 Badge [1x WIN]
