Another great episode - I was pleasantly surprised at how many good outfits there were. Even Cheryl's outfit I didn't think was that bad. Sum Ting Wong's outfit would've been really good had it been styled a little better as well. Vinegar was the clear one to go this episode with that mess she created. The lip sync was the best one so far. I was really glad to see Davina win the challenge, hers was definitely the most fashion and I loved it. I do hope The Vivienne gets knocked down a peg or two as she seems to be getting quite arrogant now.

For me Baga’s was the worst outfit of the night just worse than Vinegar’s but other than I didn’t think any outfit was awful at all. Crystal was my personal winner but Divina as winner was justifiable for sure!

I really dislike Crystal but i think based on her look she did deserve to win instead. The Vivienne is foul and she's 100% my least fave although i did quite like her dress but i think the wig was too much with the neck paint and the shoulder pads, it would have looked better with a shorter, sleeker wig imo - i could see a sort of 1920s flapper-esque one looking great with that outfit. I think the Vivienne is being favoured by the judges quite a bit and generally overhyped for sure. I think Cheryl is the underdog at this point and deserves a lot more praise than she's getting. Her look wasn't even bad and was actually quite creative! I even think she should have been safe over Baga tbh as at least she had more to hers, there was more colour and shape and she did sell it. The right girls were in the bottom tho and it was Vinegars time to go as i don't think she'd be able to up her runways and we've seen probably most of what she's got to give anyway whereas Sum Ting has a lot more potential for sure. I'm BUZZIN for snatch game next week tho!!

The Vivienne is just arrogant and I don't know if it is just the editing but I cannot warm to her at all. Her shoulder pads this week made her look like the creature from the black lagoon. Cheryl's outfit was actually my favourite this week LMAO.

I'm finding Baga and the Vivienne more unlikeable with each episode, although I am guessing there are going to be a lot of people that really like those personalities? I did not expect Sum Ting Wong to do so well in the lip sync — impressed. Hopefully she steps it up next week. This post has been edited by blacksquare: 17th October 2019, 10:18 PM

It really looked like a fashion runway look, right down to the Bowie-esque make-up. I wasn't necessarily expecting her to be the one who would slay this challenge to that degree so it was a nice surprise. Blu was robbed of being top 3, AGAIN. I thought her look was so fun and very her whilst still feeling like it totally fit the brief too. Crystal was the one I knew would do well here and she didn't disappoint, it wasn't quite fashion in the way that Divina's was in nailing the brief but that was a brilliant look, I love her style and I'm finding myself really excited for her runways. I agree with the general consensus of The Vivienne too, she's getting way too big for her boots. Her look this time wasn't even that great, as Michelle said it was a predictable silhouette and idea. She has the polish and eye for style for sure but the arrogance is so offputting, especially when its misplaced like this week. You could tell she thought she had it in the bag again, but yet again she didn't deserve to even be high imo. She hasn't come out in anything bad (quite the opposite, she had the best Bond Girl look imo and her Pete Burns look was incred) but it's quite predictable and she really needs knocking down a peg or two, sadly I doubt that will come yet as I'm sure Snatch Game will be right up her street. Also agreed on Baga, her outfit was basically just whatever she grabbed chucked on in a vague shape, which was far worse than Cheryl's. Cheryl's was basic yes but that doesn't mean it was a bad look, it was put together just fine which at its core is what the challenge was! I'd arguably have put Baga in the bottom 2 instead of Sum Ting Wong, I think Sum Ting should have got some credit for what she created with the suit/jacket thing even if it could have done with a few more elements alongside.

BuzzJack Enthusiast Joined: 27 October 2007 Posts: 1,280 User: 4,682	Pretty much agreed with the above (Baga should have been bottom, lovely Vinegar definitely the right one to go) but... why does nobody like Crystal? She's one of my fave personality wise, soooo charming, and for the most part has delivered. I do wonder if Snatch might be her undoing but we'll see. As far as the Vivienne goes, she is a bit high horse and cold BUT I said to somebody last week that she was going through so far as unshakable as Bianca, and I don't think this week was any different. I think she was definitely a solid third not top two but she did everything she needed to do and the polish is ALWAYS there, so I kiiiiiinda feel like if you can back it up with your actions, you can get away with saying those things? Injecting some humour into it like Bianca could help though. Pretty certain she'll smash Snatch too. Blu I love but I was a bit underwhelmed with. Sum Ting I was expecting disaster and I was actually quite impressed? I decided before the show I thought Divina was my fave and wow she delivered on all counts, SHOOT. Cheryl... meh. She has flashes of likability but even with the mini challenge win I felt like she was the one who just showed us what she would do in the lipsync. And I can't see her having a good Snatch so we might see those moves again next week. At least she said she knew it was a pile of w..k. This week: 01. Divina 02. Crystal 03. Vivienne 04. Blu 05. Sum Ting Wong 06 Cheryl Hole 07. Vinegar Strokes - really should be bottom for the wig alone but at least she tried to show creativity 08. Baga Chipz

BuzzJack Platinum Member Pronouns: he/him Joined: 20 January 2011 Posts: 5,907 User: 12,837	Wow this episode kind of changed my opinion on pretty much everyone lol. 1. Divina 2. Sum Ting Wong 3. Baga Chipz 4. Cheryl Hole 5. Vinegar Strokes 6. The Vivienne 7. Blu Hydrangea 8. Crystal [Beth] Divina was easily the best look last night. I was in AWE when I saw that! Vivienne had a great look too but oh my god that personality. She is so full of herself it's unreal. Baga was my No. 1 prior to this episode but her attitude and oh god that runway outfit lol helped her drop a bit. I hate to say it but yeah she should have been bottom 2. Sum Ting Wong's outfit was okay? Should have been safe at least but as soon as they showed us that clip of Sum and Vinegar bonding and Sum Ting saying "you have to stay" I predicted immediately that they were gonna make them lipsync against each other. Cheryl actually somehow grew on me?? I feel like that smackdown she got last week helped her get back down to earth and become a lot more likeable. Also I actually liked her outfit and don't think she deserved bottom 3 this time. Vinegar's outfit was obviously awful and deserved to be B2 but damn that lip sync was amazing. She's so likeable and I didn't wanna see her leave. So that leaves my personal bottom two out of this bunch: Crystal [Beth] and Blu. I don't think Crystal's outfit was one of the worst, of course not, but I'm so over the chest hair thing and ugh her make-up is not my thing. I also absolutely dispise her personality. At least Baga and Vivienne have a reason to be cocky, Crystal hasn't won any maxi challenges so where's that arrogance coming from? Blu again came off as a bit nasty in last night's episode? Like she had all these little sneaky shots that were at times just kinda mean. Her outfit.. girl, what the hell was posh about that? Should have been bottom 3, she looked like a superhero. My Challenge Winner: Divina Di Campo <3 My Top 3 Challenge-wise: Divina Di Campo, The Vivienne and Cheryl Hole (lol). My Bottom 3 Challenge-wise: Vinegar Strokes, Baga Chipz and Blu Hydrangea My Preferred Lip-Sync: Vinegar Strokes and Blu Hydrangea with Blu sashaying away.

thanks for being a sarcy lil bitch Joined: 25 September 2007 Posts: 79,276 User: 4,397	What I love about this season is that so far none of them resorted to unnecessary reveals and dips (or also known as "death drops" among the uneducated peepz~) during the lipsyncs. This one was fantastic and both showed how it's done! Divina's look was fabulous but I thought Crystal would win - she was my favourite. The Vivienne has had this sense of arrogance to her since the first minute on the show - I'm glad everyone else is catching up. Cannot WAIT for Snatch Game. Michelle's comment about one performance being the best EVER. Intrigued!!

Bagga was absolutely hilarious in the mini challenge dressing completely wrong, but she really should have been bottom two. Blu should have been top 3 and the Vivienne safe. So happy Divina this week, she seems the most genuinely normal and down to earth. Cheryl Hole really has to go next, her tongue pops knock me sick.
