It's still the top 7! Apparently this is a big deal. After a couple of strong episodes back to back, this week the girls are (already) fighting in the werkroom and are challenged to do standup!

I'm already perched for both the good and bad performances.

Who do you think will do well and who might be in trouble??

I’m seeing a lot of people say Sapphira didn’t deserve that win and I really don’t see it?!

For me, Sapphira (and Nymphia) had that spark, personality and magnetism that took it to the next level, whereas Plane and Q just had jokes, delivered correctly, but that’s it.

That lipsync could have been a double shantay tbh but poor Mhi’ya was being dragged through the mud it probably washer time to go. But honestly Morphine has had just as bad of a run tbh without the wins but nobody seems to say that 👀

Thank GOD Mhi'ya's been put out of her misery. She gave it a good shot this week, but surviving another lip-sync only to come back and flop another challenge just would've been pushing it.

I do think one of Plane and Q should've won the challenge. Their presentation flowed the most naturally for me and they had the jokes. Not really sure where the comments were coming from about them losing it at points? Sapphira was given critiques saying she stumbled, so it feels like she got the win solely because of how amazed they were by her runway? Yeah she has the presence and the ability to pull it back when it's not going so well, but I didn't see Plane or Q having to work to try and claw any of their presentation back? Very odd.

This is my darkside but Q getting Janned I am here for

Q’s attitude stinks, I get it is probably frustrating but when you have two wins and have been in the top (undeservedly) for most of the season, it’s just coming across as entitled. It’s not like wins even really matter if you look at say Willow, Yvie, Sasha Velour, she’s like a track record Reddit gay snuck onto the show

The actual challenge was pretty crap, but I definitely agreed with Sapphira winning and would honestly... put Q like 4th for the challenge? So, if there were no robbed storyline, it wouldn't have even entered my mind that she was. Sapphira and Nymphia were the only ones that made me laugh as their act and then the jokes themselves (aka slides/clips) made me laugh from Plane and Q's. But I preferred Plane in their duo, because Q has this instinct to go LOUD and SHOUTY whenever she's doing comedy, as we've now seen when she played the brick and Amelia Earheart. The bit where she imitated Silky made me turn the volume down.

THE LIP SYNC. I love Mh'iya so much but she did lose this once - went out on another VERY memorable lip sync though. She's had so many memorable moments for such a quiet character and I hold such a place in my heart for her. I also hold a place for Morphine though, so if anyone was gonna knock her out, I'm glad it was Morphine. And I'm hoping she can do the same to Dawn next week, who is being treated as if she's better than Morphine but I'm not really seeing it.

I thought Plane/Q were the best group overall, but Sapphira and Nymphia the strongest individually. I thought Nymphia was going to win tbh. Although the judge's comments about Nymphia's character are somewhat surprising considering they ate up Plastique everytime she went into a stereotypical character/accent? Although that was a few years ago now and things change.

Not sad to see Mhi-ya go, it was her time. I thought Morphine was going to actually hit her during the lip sync at some point.
