It's that time of year again, as we count down your favourite queens across the various iterations of Drag Race! There's multiple incarnations across the globe since the last rate, so this should be an extra special one, predict and hype away.

 

 

Just gonna get Holland out of the way in a couple of posts, then we'll be onto to the English series! I didn't get enough to bother with Thailand sadly :(

DRH 10th Miss Abby OMG 3.50

 

Highest score: 7 (Josh, Lewis)

Lowest score: -1 (Pavel, Liam)

 

Falling in last place for the first season of Drag Race Holland according to us gays is Miss Abby Oh My Basic, shocker x This Brazillian queen lipsynced four times, sending home frontrunners and fan favourites in Sederginne and ChelseaBoy. But lipsync assassin she is not, she got lucky with those two and pulls off just the bare minimum baseline not just in lipsyncs but through the entire competition. Me and Pav minusing her probs cost her this but deserved tbh

 

DRH 9th Megan Schoonbrood 3.62

Highest score: 5 (Harry)

Lowest score: 2 (Josh)

 

Not faring much better is Megan, who was another of Abby's casualties. I understand Megan is a big name in Dutch drag and has been doing drag for nearly 20 years, but you wouldn't know it oops. Not terrible, but definitely out of her depth on a show like this as she just couldn't bring it to the level that is needed imo. Megan is known for being the first deaf queen in any series though and you do have to applaud how much harder she probably has to work with that in mind.

 

DRH 8th Roem 4.31

Highest score: 6.5 (Josh)

Lowest score: 2 (Lewis)

 

First eliminee Roem was arguably the most known among the Drag Race fanbase due to her Dark Res parody series. Because of this, she could seen as a Dutch Soju, a fellow first eliminee known through Youtube who ultimately wasn't up to par. I like her on paper and kinda liked what we saw, but that first look just wasn't up to scratch for what the show requires, she wasn't ready.

 

DRH 7th Patty Pam-Pam 5.12

Highest score: 8 (Pavel)

Lowest score: 2 (Lewis)

 

Probably the most forgettable queen of the series for me, although one I think definitely could have given more. What we saw was fine, but not memorable, and perhaps given a chance she could have done more.

 

DRH 6th Madame Madness 6.87

Highest score: 8 (George.keh, Harry)

Lowest score: 5 (Josh)

 

The TRADE of the season, no question the hottest Drag Race alumni for me, Rowan ticks all my boxes :wub: Shallowness aside, Madame was definitely about middle ground for me. I loved the fact she's a bearded queen, instantly shows she has a style and a way of looking at things that is different and interesting, however that eye didn't always see correctly and end up with the right finished product. I think she could be a good All Stars candidate if DRH did that in a few seasons time!

DRH 5th Sederginne 7.50

 

One of the two "robbed" queens of the season sent home by Abby, Sederginne placed high in every episode (and certainly deserved episode 1's win at the very least) up until that disastrous Snatch Game episode, with a bizarre choice of character and THAT botched Kermit and Miss Piggy look (which I didn't actually mind, but it definitely wasn't executed that well). I don't know if she gave up (it honestly felt that way with the lipsync and how she was pissed off at what the song was) or she just took risks with both Mega Mindy and the Kermit/Piggy look, maybe a bit of both, but for such a contender to go out so flatly was really disappointing. She gave us the most polished and creative runways of the season constantly, plus she had the humour and performing talent to back it up, but sadly it wasn't to be.

 

DRH 4th Ma'Ma Queen 7.65

 

My non-binary angel <3 Ma'ma was such a pure soul throughout the season, speaking up for important issues and always being herself with her own vision. I'd say her performance in Gooische Drags and THAT weed look was the best one-two punch of challenge performance and runway look this season, the rest of her run following that was low or in the lipsync, the judges never "got" a lot of her looks. I think her being put in the bottom over a pair of shoes the judges didn't like when the guest judge singled her out in the challenge during the voguing episode is possibly one of the most bizarre calls I've seen on Drag Race :lol: I think perhaps her style of drag and vision she had didn't translate that well in the format of the show and wasn't what the judges wanted, but I have so much time for her.

I agree with all placings for DH holland so far tbh. I do think patty was better than madness tho, she is one of the best seamstresses to ever be on the show. I would have loved to see more from her.

 

With Ma'Ma queen, I think aside from their drag being different and I love that they identify as non-binary. However, he looks were either hit or miss for me. If her looks had a more polish to them I'd love for her to come back on an all-stars season. I am still unsure whether I like her final look or if I consider there too be too much :lol:.

 

I'd love Sederginne to come back most of her runways were great and she does have the talent, its just a shame she really f***ed up the week she was eliminated.

I think Mama was my fave just ended up really enjoying everything she put onto the runway and seemed like such a sweet character

Mama Queen robbed from Top 3 placement!!!

Omg the choice of gifs for this are so amazing.

 

What an undertaking also, Liam!

DRH 3rd Janey Jacké 8.06

 

Highest score: 10 (b, Lewis)

Lowest score: 6 (George.keh)

 

Just missing out on the top 2 (unlike the real season where she was runner-up), is the queen who could be described as the villain of Drag Race Holland. I think she was more complex than a lot of villains, she certainly isn't loud and annoying like Silky/Eureka or just full on horrible like say Acid Betty. I loved the development arc she had, you began to see more layers and vulnerability as the show went on and honestly a lot of the time, when she was being a "villain" she was just calling out someone who needed to be called out. She is of course stunning too, and the Rusical and her two lipsyncs proved she is one hell of a performer and a deserving runner-up.

 

 

DRH 2nd Envy Peru 8.75

 

Highest score: 10 (Pavel, Lewis)

Lowest score: 6.5 (Josh)

 

One of the most obvious winners a season has had, Envy dominated the season with four wins (the workout challenge, Dancing Queens, Snatch Game as Patty Brard and makeover alongside her mother), being the most polished of the season and a brilliant all rounder. To be honest I think hr Snatch Game win was bizarre, she was great but they even SAID ChelseaBoy won that and Envy's runway that week was her worst for me, and the Dancing Queens and workout ones seemed to be more based on the runway on weeks the challenge didn't seem to matter. But all that aside, she is undeniably a bloody brillaint queen, with a fabulous mix of styles, in her own lane with a brilliant eye for fashion and making it pop in a drag sense. Far from being just a pretty queen, she excelled in performance challenges too and never faltered all season, bar one or two meh runways but that's gonna happen to any queen really. She was a really deserving first winner for this branch of the franchise who Holland can be proud to see represent them on the main stage.

 

DRH 1st ChelseaBoy 9.00

 

Highest score: 11 (Harry)

Lowest score: 8 (Pavel, Lewis)

 

And the winner here is Chelsea, the most robbed queen of the season I think most of us will agree? Like Ma'Ma, Chelsea's runways were often misunderstood but I think it was even more odd in Chelsea's case as she was so polished and the ideas were almost always fully realised. She had a very different, genderf*** kind of approach to drag and I think the issue was that the judges didn't want that, they wanted the more classic/fashion style of drag like Envy and Janey. Chelsea excelled both on runways and performance, with a brilliant turn in Gooische Drags and a scene-stealing Joe Exotic in Snatch Game. However, like Sederginne, you can't really argue that Chelsea's elimination, based on what transpired in the episode she was eliminated in. I do wish she outlasted Abby at least though D:

 

 

I love Chelsea Boy so much see with her elimination I agreed with the lip-sync but I actually don't think she shoulda been bottom 2 at all. Maybe bottom 3 but like Abby and ma'ma's looks were worse that week.

 

Janey and Envy are super polished though. I am so pleased for them. I actually don't think Janey was that bad as a villain, I actually agreed with her a lot of the times (apart from calling the beard lazy on MM).

As RuPaul once said, THS IS THE MAIN EVENT ARE YOU READY!!!

 

 

174 queens to go, here goes the mammoth undertaking of your rankings of them :o

Yasss

174 Venus D-Lite 1.82

This year's wooden spoon is Season 3's Venus D-Lite, who is known for being a Madonna impersonator who had surgery to look like her :lol: She had an AWFUL attitude, constantly being way too ahead of her station in the episode acting like she was a world class drag queen and wold easily win, but the worst was how unprofessional her lipsync was, shoving Shangela and trying to stand in front of her to steal the spotlight. We of course know the outcome, and look at now Shangela now!

 

 

173 Magnolia Crawford 2.04

Season 6's Magnolia was one of two first eliminees alongside Kelly Mantle, in a split premiere. She is always noted as one of the most disliked queens I feel, she was never nasty to anyone but her attitude was awful, her outfit was HIDEOUS, and given she was only in that one episode, we've got nothing else to go on, she has since quit drag too!

 

172 Penny Tration 2.21

Another first eliminee to bow out, this time the first eliminee of Season 4. She fell to Serena ChaCha after a basic and ugly trash couture look in the dumpster diving premiere design challenge, and much like Magnolia, that one episode of being shit is all we have to go on. Points for the pun name though, always love those :lol:

 

171 Silky Nutmeg Ganache 2.32

The lowest finalist, and also the lowest queen to not be eliminated first in her season, oops. Silky was one of the dominant characters of season 11, eventually placing 4th after winning the Trump Rusical as well as Snatch Game for playing herself TS Madison. She didn't JUST gt hate in this rate, accumulating an 8 and a few 5s and 6s, counterbalanced by four -1s (one from me x) and other low scores. I just personally found her unbearable, overbearing and nasty towards Yvie in particular, with much too high an opinion of herself for what she presented on the season.

 

170 Alisa Summers 2.35

Yet another first eliminee, they are dropping like flies! Alisa was another one who fell to a first episode design challenge, bowing out against Jiggly Caliente in the apocalypse themed challenge. Interestingly, she is apparently the least followed Drag Race alumni on Instagram with just 3,000 followers, and is defintiely one of the more forgettable queens.

 

169 Dax Exclamation Point 2.50

Another first eliminee, kind of :lol: Dax was part of the second ever double sashay alongside Laila McQueen during the Bitch Perfect lipsync performance challenge, and technically those two placed last after Naysha Lopez came back. Not a lot to say here, a forgettable run of two episodes ended by an awful lipsync to one of the ultimate gay anthems in I Will Survive. Her technically being Violet Chachki's drag mother SENDS me every time I think about it, idk why.

 

168 Vivienne Pinay 2.57

From one half of a double sashay to another, this time Season 5's Vivienne Pinay who botched Oops I Did It Again alongside Honey Mahogany following the dance challenge.She is another queen who quit drag, although was (is?) Alyssa Edwards' assistant as part of Alyssa's Secret.

 

167 Brita Filter 2.67

Arguably the biggest villain of Season 12, Brita spent nearly the whole season tearing down Aiden Zhane. Another of my -1s here too, I just thought she was vile towards Aiden and her opinion of herself was FAR too high, spending the whole season saying how she was such a name at home but bringing absoltuely nothign to the season. I do feel sorry for her since the season though, she received endless hate and even death threats from fans of the show, overdosed and I believe is currently in recovery and staying off social media. This fanbase really can be toxic :/

 

166 Kahanna Montrese 2.71

Finishing off the first section is an early out from season 11, who sent home Soju before being sent home by Mercedes, being bottom in both the premiere design challenge (focused on making an outfit inspired by queens from previous seasons) and the Get Out/Black Panther acting challenge. I find her a pretty basic, baseline queen who I don' have much opinion on, I remember Season 12's early rumours had her as a returnee which seemed really random but ofc that never materialised.

165 Phoenix 2.82

Another very forgettable queen, unlike Venus' unprofessionalism or Mimi's... Miminess out of the other S3 early outs, she just kind of fell away. She did have a bit of an attitude and wasn't hugely likeable.

 

164 Mimi Imfurst 3.00

Speaking of... Mimi kind of dominated the first few episodes of S3, in a bad way. I definitely think she has talent but was totally overbearing and very annoying, loud and demanding in almost everything she did, as well as not being very gracious when she didn't win the two challenges she placed high in. Of course, the pinnacle was her incredibly unprofessional behaviour in her lipsync against India Ferrah, picking her up on stage leading to the famous proclamation - "drag is not a contact sport!" She also came back for All Stars 1, making her the lowest All Star here (kind of :whistle:). Who can forget everyone vs. Mimi Imfurt in that season's first Untucked? *.*

 

163 Kyne 3.03

The first international queen to bow out is Canada's 2nd eliminee Kyne, who was sent home by Tynomi after a disappointing acting challenge and awful runway. Her defining characteristic was her attitude, she didn't take criticism well at all and came across bratty. I do love her math TikToks though, random I know. She might have got a bit of a "villain edit" or just not been right/ready for the show, but she seems in good spirits about how she was portrayed and received.

 

162= Serena ChaCha 3.11

(the first tie here, won't be breaking them until much later when it starts mattering a bit more)

A quite infamous name, one who caused a lot of drama and fuss in her two week tenure! Serena was quite pretentious, her art background made her think she had a lot more concept to her looks than there actually was, and she didn't take well to criticism from her fellow queens. Everybody vs Serena in Untucked was like a mini Mimi AS1 moment, kinda iconic. I think she was one who was a bit young and not at all ready.

 

162= Robbie Turner 3.11

Robbie's legacy now is nothing from Season 8, but THAT Uber crash story. If you don't know, Robbie stated that she was in an Uber crash that killed the driver, this was later proven as false and Robbie said it was just a dream? Robbie was often seen as a witty confessional queen on S8, won the New Wave performance challenge, and lipsynced on rollerskates, but like much of S8's cast, she was hardly a shining star that you really remember.

 

160= Rebecca Glasscock 3.21

Joining Silky in bombing this as a finalist, Season 1's Rebecca was the original queen to be hated by the fanbase, finishing 3rd ahead of the likes of Ongina and Shannel who fans felt deserved it way more. She came across as an annoying drama queen and also quite basic even by S1 standards, but she did win the makeover along the way.

 

160= Kenya Michaels 3.21

I always feel like she is such an odd top 5 finish, sometimes I forget he came back and didn't *really* make it that far :lol: Kenya was sweet enough but totally out of her depth, she just wasn't good enough. The fact she did cartwheels over Natural Woman while Latrice gave one of the most nuanced and beautiful lipsyncs of all time never fails to make me laugh, totally misjudged :lol:

 

160= Kalorie Karbdashian Williams 3.21

Possibly the worst name in Drag Race history, probably the other most notable thing about Kalorie is her sending home Vanjie in what was quite a shock at the time, but she was sent home by Eureka the week after.

 

160= Soju 3.21

CYSTER!11!1! As I said about Roem from DRH, Soju was known for Youtube and took the plunge to go on the show. However, she just was not good enough, with an absolute mess of a first challenge outfit that looked like a deflated, deconstructed loofah, and the whole cyst saga just felt like she was desperately tying to recreate Miss Vanjie's iconic meme exit with another catchphrase.

 

156= Kelly Mantle 3.43

Kelly stakes a claim to being one of the best first outs, one of those who just fell foul of not being a strong looks queen when the first challenge is nearly always a runway.

 

156= Madame LaQueer 3.43

A queen who has the distinction of having the shortest run on the show of any queen to win a challenge, with 4 episodes, winning the wrestling challenge alongside Chad Michaels. Tbh that and her going "EWWWWWWWW" hammily in the Queens Behind Bars challenge was about all there is to remember.

 

156= Charlie Hides 3.43

Charlie most likely stakes to claim to the worst lipsync of all time :lol: After a tantrum over not wanting to lipsync as British queens supposedly ALL sing live (:')), Charlie gave absolutely NOTHING with minus energy, swaying side to side a little in a kind of bizarre protest against what she knew would be the format of the show when she went on? Just a really offputting attitude to have to be honest.

 

153 Cynthia Lee Fontaine 3.45

Cucu Lee Cucu managed to somehow be on two seasons, although it was due to her cancer during her season 8 stint and Ru gave her a second chance, which ofc is fair enough, for her to get a chance to go again. However, the talent just was and is not there, lovely person I'm sure but saying cucu ad nauseam and wearing basic outfits is not enough. The Music lipsync against Peppermint is one of the biggest murders on the Drag Race stage too, she had NO chance against Pep :lol:

 

 

152 Sasha Belle 3.46

Apparently she is now known as "Frisbee Jenkins" :rofl: That's about all to note, as Sasha is one of the more forgettable queens on a season that often goes overlooked (Season 7), being the second out, sent home by Katya in a lipsync to Twist Of Fate by Olivia Newton-John. She also had her own self-produced show called Sasha Belle's Drag Race on Youtube which also kind of sends me :')

 

151 Kandy Ho 3.50

I'd argue Kandy as the most forgettable queen in a way, for the minimal or even non-existent screentime she got despite competing for six episodes! I just can't think of anything she did to mention, other than winning two lipsyncs against the oldest queens of the season Tempest DuJour and Mrs Kasha Davis.

No big losses here but I feel Brita maybe does not deserve to be THAT low. Happy to see Silky stay so low and yikes at Robbie's drop, even further than last year (last year: 103/140, 38th from bottom). I have never really got the Magnolia hate, I didn't find her that bad. Fun fact, that bottom 5 is almost identical to the one last year, only one missing is Phoenix while Penny wasn't there last year.

I got commentary done for the first 4 seasons like 3 weeks ago before coursework said bye to the others, so I'll put in the ones I've already done as the results progress and make a new comment bout the others :magic:

 

Venus (0) - Her lipsync was embarrassing and she doesn’t resemble Madge as much as she thinks she does.

Magnolia (-1.0) - Horrendous.

Penny (1) - Why did I give her even this much lmao. I happened to watch S5 Ep1 last night and that dress could be the worst in herstory :puke:

Silky (3.5) - Silky was aloof, unlikeable and arrogant but do I consider her one of the worst ever? No ma'am. The outpouring of hate she got is pretty unprecedented and I do feel for her, hopefully if she gets another shot she can tone down...everything and her genuine talent can get more focus.

Alisa (0) - One of the few queens that gave me literally nothing. Those felt ass tits were abysmal as well, at least he was hot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dax (0) - Your comment said it all Liam, Violet's drag mother? :lol: I do think she's probably in the Mayhem/Brita category of being a good queen, but not good for Drag Race.

Vivienne (1.5) - Who else but the fishiest queen of all time :cheeseblock:

Brita (1) - It was a 1 instead of a 0 because while Brita didn't have a good showing on S12, she had some great lip-syncs (Jonathan Bennett's reaction to her magic trick, we stan Aaron Samuels being a hunty) and there's clearly more to her than what we saw. I had no idea she's suffered an overdose :(

Kahanna (1) - She seemed lovely, but yeah nothing there.

Phoenix (3.5) - I remembered loving her first look, but I watched the first episode of Season 3 again recently and I didn’t lol. The gif of her and India remains iconic.

Mimi (3) - I don't think she's untalented at all and I liked her first two looks on Season 3, but the irritation is real. Her best moment is Shangela's read of her.

Kyne (N/A) - From the one full episode I saw of CDR, a bitch but I love her TikToks too :lol:

Serena (4) - I felt a bit sorry for her on Season 5, yes she was naive and annoying but unlike Mimi I don't feel the pile on in Untucked was QUITE warranted.

Robbie (-1) - Maybe I was slightly harsh but for a 'nice queen' she's...kinda mean? Her poodle thing in Ep 1 was the worst outfit of the season and minus the roller-skate lip-sync I didn't enjoy her. But I should've given a -1 to Penny or Alisa or someone else tbh. Sorry Turner.

Rebecca (-1) - Another one! Coming into the workroom in trousers...find me that Michelle Visage ‘no’ gif. She really damaged Season 1 for me, she came off arrogant and her looks were very meh other than the Absolut challenge dress which I kind of liked. The worst finalist ever.

Laqueer (2) - Kind of annoying, I did feel sorry for her always being picked last tho as that was basically me in PE lmaoo (well there was always one or two picked after me obvs x)

Sasha/Frisbee (2.5) - 'I cracked the code' Honestly he's hot af but how was he not in the Bottom vs Tempest in episode one :lol:

Kandy (1.5) - Minus a decent lipsync or two all I remember is her asking Tempest her age, disrespectful!

I think in retrospect Silky is less liked than she could be because in addition to being irritating and not paticularly strong, she was unfairly shielded by Ru/production to make it all the way to the finale.

 

If she'd been eliminated in like, 8th or something, she'd probably be more fondly looked upon. (although Season 11 was also a slog all ways through so maybe not - easily one of my bottom 3 seasons)

 

I actually wouldn't mind seeing Mimi again in another AllStars, she was dealt a pretty unfair hand in AS1 by having to work with Pandora who didn't care at all and also having to deal with Raven stirring at her. She's actually a quite funny comedy queen & I bet she'd slay a Snatch Game.

150 Tyra Sanchez 3.68

As always, Tyra comes out as the lowest winner, she of course pipped Jujubee and Raven to the post in season 2, having won the country queens challenge as well as the wedding runway challenge and the Diva Awards ball. The only winner to retire from drag, Tyra's name is of course infamous and precedes itself. Perhaps the pinnacle of her infamy is her threat to bomb Dragcon in 2018, leading to her being banned from Dragcon. I don't think she came across well on Season 2 and I was never a fan, so it wasn't hard for me to separate things when she was cancelled to be honest.

 

149 Nicole Paige Brooks 3.78

For an early out who's forgettable, she was actually quite a loud personality, moreso in Untucked. She was kind of still on a basic Season 1 type level when a fair few of the S2 cast were a step up and brought a lot more. I do remember her saying t***** about 83 times during her season :/

 

148 Dahlia Sin 3.89

Despite being one of the most recent queens as S12 just aired a few months ago, all I can really remember of her is that bloody broccoli joke that was wrung dry throughout the season :lol: Dahlia didn't shine in the non-elimination premiere, and she was the first to be eliminated after being overshadowed in World's Worst, and losing a lipsync to Nicky Doll.

 

147= Mercedes Iman Diamond 3.96

OPPULENCE YOU EARN EVERYTHING. At least she gave us that iconic catchphrase, because we didn't get much else from Mercedes in her run on Season 11 :whistle: She was lovely and had an interesting story, she fought for her place to even be in the country let alone the show, but she is not a vintage iconic queen for sure.

147= Honey Davenport 3.96

The casualty of Season 11's messy six-way lipsync, Honey I believe is hugely known in the NYC scene and does music and theatre shows as well as drag. On the show, she just didn't stand out really, with her lipsync being the only thing you really remember.

 

147= Monica Beverley Hillz 3.96

Monica is remembered for being the first contestant to disclose she is transgender while the show was being filmed, doing so on episode 2 prior to lipsyncing against Serena ChaCha. It's easy to underestimate how big this was for network TV! I believe she's been blacklisted for criticising Ru.

 

147= Akashia 3.96

Queen of lipsyncing every episode she was in *_* 3 in a row no less. She is no lipsync assassin though, Tammie Brown gave up and Porkchop was.... Porkchop. Akashia is very much a Season 1 queen, reminiscent of that "lost" season and a totally different time for Drag Race.

 

143 Jade 4.00

Also a season 1 queen, Jade... was Jade? I'm struggling to write a meaningful commentary tbh bar the fact she apparently was only eliminated over Rebecca in her lipsync because she physically tried to hinder her, I did always think that Rebecca should have gone home that week.

 

142 Carmen Carrera 4.03

Carmen is known as the first eliminated queen to return in the same season, as she came back during Season 3's makeover episode after being eliminated, only to be eliminated again straight away by Raja :') She was one of the Heathers and definitely the most mean girl of the lot of them, with frankly the least talent to back it up oops.

 

141= Gothy Kendoll 4.11

The first UK queen to appear here is the first eliminee Gothy, famously described by Alan Carr as an "estate agent who'd had face painted at the fair" :rofl: Gothy's Queen Elizabeth II look in the premiere episode wasn't bad, but the tiger one was god-awful and her lipsync spoke for itself :')

 

141= Kimora Blac 4.11

Kimora was an early out on Season 9, struggling in each of the 3 episodes. She notably struggled with sewing, which led to her demise in episode 3, lipsyncing against Aja after the Draggily Ever After challenge, although she did send home Jaymes Mansfield the week before. For me she's one of those basic drag queens who didn't bring a lot to the show who definitely deserved her early out status.

 

139 Aiden Zhane 4.14

Aiden was pretty divisive in season 12, and her rivalry with Brita dominated the early part of it. She did place high in a couple of challenges, but also struggled in the Ball and Snatch Game, the latter of which she BOMBED and was even trashed by Patricia Quinn herself, who Aiden played. I just found her a bit pretentious bottom line, she kept going on about concept and everything but never really presented anything that great in terms of her looks.

 

138 Delta Work 4.21

Another Heather crashes out, this time it's Delta. Delta failed to win any challenges, but placed high in the cake inspired runway challenge, and sent home Phoenix and Mariah, before being sent home by Manila in one of the best lipsyncs of all time (on Manila's part). I don't find her much better than Carmen tbh, she was mean for the sake of it, far above her station too for the standard of looks and performances she gave in her time on the show.

 

137= Naysha Lopez 4.25

The original first eliminee Season 8, Naysha came back following the shock double sashay of Dax and Laila, and managed to outlast Cynthia before being eliminated again, sent home by Chi Chi in the New Wave episode. I love that she's always called Eliminaysha Lopez by the fans :')

 

137= Tempest DuJour 4.25

Rounding off this section is the first eliminee of Season 7, arguably one of the strongest first outs who was unlucky that the first episode is usually fashion themed and that's not her strong suit. Of all the first outs bar the ones who came back anyway in Shangela and Vanjie, she's probably the one I'd most like to see again in some kind of retribution season.

I think in retrospect Silky is less liked than she could be because in addition to being irritating and not paticularly strong, she was unfairly shielded by Ru/production to make it all the way to the finale.

 

If she'd been eliminated in like, 8th or something, she'd probably be more fondly looked upon. (although Season 11 was also a slog all ways through so maybe not - easily one of my bottom 3 seasons)

Yeah definitely, that's more of why I didn't like her as well! I mean she's unbearable either way but that was compounded with the frustration that came with the fact that you just couldn't get rid of her, obviously the longer you have to put up with someone like that, the more annoying they are. And when it's someone who is that loud and obnoxious as well, they never just fade into the background, you were always aware Silky was there :drama:

Aiden Zhane's finale look was iconique tho

It’s like Eureka, if she’d stayed as a Season 9 queen who hurt her leg then she’d be way higher regarded/...tolerated by the fanbase.
