All the queens return to show off their final runways, and then Plane, Nymphia and Sapphira perform original songs and lipsync for the win!
Some special guests from past seasons are also expected. Discuss away here - episode drops 19th April 2024 |

Im shook!!!
Padam Padam lipsync just sealed the deal for Nymphia...I've never jumped nor screamed more in my life during lip-sync performance!!! Before that I was dead sure Sapphira Cristal would take it, but as soon as RuPaul said 'Lip-sync to Padam Padam' I knew Nymphia was going to turn it up!!! |

Have to say I am disappointed, to think that Sapphira can kill the season like that and still not win. I don’t think she will even come back for All Stars because there’s nothing to improve on or redeem with a run like she had. With Shea on AS5, she did kind of crash and burn in the lipsync tournament and that was a storyline for her at least.
Nymphia was great though and it does show, Drag Race can always come down to what you bring on the night, and I do like that. I think it’s a season where out of this top 2, whichever of them won and whichever of them lost, it would feel wrong for the other not to have a crown. |

Oh I'm so disappointed for Sapphira
 I don't know what she could've done more to be honest! Nymphia is a great winner, I just know there's room for growth in an All Stars season, that Sapphira doesn't actually need to do. Not to negate Nymphia's win, very significant in terms of her culture and the obvious fan favourite at the end. I just haven't been Team Anyone this much for quite a few seasons!!!

I think RuPaul was Team Sapphira throughout the entirety of the season, but changed her mind on who she wanted to win during the final lip sync.

The final lipsync from Nymphia really was killer. The cartwheel reveal!

So happy with the winner. I can’t believe it’s the first time we have an East Asian winner on American drag race!

Just finished watching the episode and yeah, yikes. Sapphira was robbed of the crown. I really don't get Ru/production's logic either because if they purposely didn't have Sapphira/Plane win because they want them back for All Stars, where exactly do they go from here with storyline, redemption, etc? Sapphira in particular is fully realised, had the most amazing season, had a flawless runway package. Nymphia screams runner up that could've come back and smashed All Stars and won that. But meh, we move.

Well, then they need to do something about the final task if it isn't lipsync, because Nymphia easily won that lipsync!!!

I think it might’ve indeed been the power of lip sync that made Nymphia win. In my view, in the last episode she became a close 2nd and that last lip sync showed her skills for the first time which is always better if your opponent already lip synced at least 3 times.
I wonder what Q meant in that Maddy interview about Nymphia being a bitch and cancelled if anyone were ever to find out. :’) |

Oh Q was probably just being bitter. I really couldn't stand that queen.
But, Pav, Nymphia and Plane are good friends so it could be the case that Nymphia was also bitchy behind the scenes and the edit we got just chose not to show that. |

Amanda’s face when Plane was on. Oh my!
A bit of an anti-climactic winner for me. Yes Nymphia had an amazing and emotional first performance and her reveals in the final lip sync were great. But it does leave a little bad taste in my mouth to think that Plane and Saphira were stronger throughout and still lost….I guess that’s what happens when you leave it to a lip sync |
