Posted March 4, 20214 yr Tonight the queens turn their hand to comedy and must impress guest judge Dawn French with a stand-up routine!
March 4, 20214 yr Dawn French has been the judge i’ve been most excited for all season- really excited to see her! Who’s the judge next week then as there should be only one guest judge left from the line-up? Expecting a Bimini or Lawrence win
March 4, 20214 yr I'm expecting Ellie to bomb this, not because she's the weakest left but this really does not seem like her cup of tea and her age and inexperience will play against her I think. Similar to Blair in AS5. I'd imagine Lawrence would smash it and Bimini and Tayce should do good too. Awhora is also funny but I'm not sure how she'd do in a structured comedy style. I'm guessing this is wrapping up fairly soon? Do we have four or three in the final?
March 4, 20214 yr Author Ellie will probs go, I feel like A'whora might have a bottom 2 moment too as I just can't see her being good here, but we've said that for a few challenges which she's done great in anyway! I'd not be surprised at Tayce either. Lawrence will be in her element and Bimini should do well too! Dawn French has been the judge i’ve been most excited for all season- really excited to see her! Who’s the judge next week then as there should be only one guest judge left from the line-up? Expecting a Bimini or Lawrence win Natalie Cassidy is appearing next week but not as a judge, probably just a coach type role as it is an acting challenge. I expect it to be just be Alan and Graham maybe as we've had everyone who was stated to be a judge I think?
March 4, 20214 yr Lawrence and A'Whora really were so unnecessarily rude to Ellie, its an order, get over it?! :lol: They just wanted someone to blame or project their own insecurities onto, like come on, it's a game! I'm not even mad at A'Whora going after acting like that, as talented as she is, she's very insecure and has a horrible mean streak to her that I thought we saw the back of. Ellie is the sweetest and I really hope she doesn't get much hate, I think she's a genuine lovely girl and she just wants to do well in the competition and be taken seriously - there's nothing wrong with that. I do think it should have been Tayce and Lawrence bottom two though, Lawrence reminded me.of Sherry Pies 20 minute over the top stand up :lol: it took too long to land the actual jokes. Tayce tried bless her, but you could see she was nervous. A'Whora and Ellie I did both laugh at least and Bimini of course is just in a whole other league at this point Also the lip sync songs are high key tragic?! I don't get what they're playing at this series??? :lol:
March 4, 20214 yr This lipsync was INCREDIBLE I have been DYING for a Dusty lipsync since the DRUK was announced and this did it justice!
March 4, 20214 yr Completely agree about A’Whora and Lawrence being unnecessarily rude to Ellie. Are they really saying they wouldn’t have done the same thing if they were in her position? That’s the whole point of being given that power after winning the mini challenge... Gutted to see A’Whora go, even after that, especially as I didn’t think she actually did too badly at the stand up. It always annoys me when the judges mark someone down for being too vulgar. I feel like drag race should be one of the only shows you actually can be vulgar on?! Now A’Whora’s gone, I only really like two of the top four which is a bit disappointing after how strong the series has been. Bimini is in a whole other league and Tayce is my firm second favourite. Ellie’s lucky to have made the top four and Lawrence I actually can’t stand now after never really liking her anyway :’)
March 4, 20214 yr Tayce is definetly miss congeniality for me (if we ignore Bimini) not necessarily the most talented but so wholesome, funny and just such a JOY to watch :wub:
March 4, 20214 yr Ugh at A’Whora and Lawrence’s attitude. Why did it matter? Just do what Bimini said - it doesn’t matter where i am, I’m gonna smash it That is the attitude they should all have! Bimini HAS to win this!! Although props to Ellie - only Queen never to have been bottom 2 (so far this year) Edited March 4, 20214 yr by ElectroBoy
March 4, 20214 yr Author I found that a really poor challenge for the standard of this series, only Bimini actually did well imo, she was so natural as always just effortless slayage. I only really properly laughed at Ellie other than Bimini, and wasn't really because the routine was that funny, it was just mental and random af :lol: A'whora I wouldn't say was bad at all although she did fumble her lines so the flow was a bit off. Tayce tried but was just not there, I don't think there was even much content to it or an idea, it was just her nerves swallowing her it felt like :( Lawrence was the weakest for me, I also got Sh*rry in the one woman show vibes :lol: It felt so much longer than everyone else's, a slog of a journey to any punchline. For a comedy queen, that was just shite. I don't think anyone was good enough for me to be outraged if they were bottom 2, but I'd have picked Tayce and Lawrence. Not too mad at A'whora going after how her and Lawrence were tonight though, that was just out of order, immature and there was really no need! No matter which way it's spun and how the orders or roles are picked, your set is the same and you're good or you're not, but this kind of thing alwyas causes a bit of drama! It just re-iterated why I love Bimini, constant good vibes, doesn't get involved in the shit and focuses on herself, and it shows because she bossed yet another challenge. I think A'whora's flubbing of her lines probably wasn't helped by her focusing too much on her anger, spending so much energy on Ellie, which serves her right. She's been digging at Ellie, questioning her right to be there, for weeks, so how does she have any right to be so nasty over one moment of possible shade :drama: Bimini > Tayce > Ellie > Lawrence for me, Lawrence I'm souring on again after tonight :lol: Ellie I love but I acknowledge she is more "basic" and probably weaker than the others in terms of her range and versatility, but I looooove her aesthetic anyway. Tayce is just a superstar even when she fails, so likeable too and just seems like a really warm person, and Bimini is of course the icon of the series and this is hers to lose at this point surely?
March 4, 20214 yr Completely agree about A’Whora and Lawrence being unnecessarily rude to Ellie. Are they really saying they wouldn’t have done the same thing if they were in her position? That’s the whole point of being given that power after winning the mini challenge... Yes, it was definitely out of order, especially since they just kept on going on about it. Especially with Lawrence, you are literally a comedy queen, it shouldn´t matter at all where you´re placed, just focus on yourself and your own jokes. I thought both Bimini and Tayce acted really well, got on with the show and did their best. Bimini was, obviously, the star of the show again. But I did enjoy Tayce´s comedy round as well and was quite shocked she was in the bottom instead of Ellie (seriously, top 4????). A'Whora just cracked me up, it was vulgar, but that was the point right? She did a lot better than I expected. It was sad to see her and Tayce in the lipsync together, but they did a fantastic job (again, strange song choice though).
March 4, 20214 yr Ellie doesn't seem to have much left to offer so I am sad to see A'Whora go, although I found both her and Lawrence really pathetic this episode. Like others have said — Bimini had the right attitude (as always) and was by far the best. I can't imagine how difficult that challenge was for them without any crowd for feedback though... Surely no one but Bimini is winning this entire thing? Edited March 4, 20214 yr by blacksquare
March 4, 20214 yr I agree with everyone about A'Whora and Lawrence. They were so rude to Ellie. She had every right to make the line-up difficult for everyone to increase her chances of a badge. You kept teasing her and now she dishes it out to you via the challenge and you can't take it. :lol: Bimini was spot on when she said put me whereever and I'll kill it. Honestly I thought all 5 queens did decentish in the stand-up. I do think the lack of a live audience hindered the challenge though. I laughed so hard at Ellie, mainly thinking what the f*** is she doing. :lol: Bimini did the best and she looked so good! Both in the stand up and runway. Love it :wub: Tayce could've killed this challenge had he not been so nervous and kept cutting himself short! The way they were building his story this episode I thought for sure he was going to outright suck but he didn't! Lawrence was quite funny, although as the judges said he took too long in the set up. I would love an uncensored version of A'Whora's set. :lol: I was surprised at Tayce staying over A'whora. I honestly thought A'Whora did better in the lip sync? Although in saying that I'm not sad to see the back of A'Whora after this episode.
March 4, 20214 yr Glad to see everyone in here agree about the Awhora/Lawrence/Ellie situation. The good thing about DRUK is all the drama tends to be stupid, shady and fun but that was just straight up nasty. (Its also a little annoying seeing people on twitter call out comments like this saying DONT SEND QUEENS HATE, we can comment on what we just witnessed, we aren't saying we hate the queens or anything...) I think at this point if they've filmed all the queens winning it has to be Bimini's now with both her track record and the amazing fan response which could give her the boost. I also thought Lawrence was the wort this week, the least amount of jokes and none of them were that great. Tayce's was pretty decent overall so I'm not sure why she was in the bottom other than getting the A'Whora/Tayce lip-sync moment
March 4, 20214 yr Both Lawrence and A’Whora were disgusting tonight, it would have been bad enough had they just left it how it was at the beginning but the way they were in Untucked was plain nasty. I’ve been such a fan of A’Whora all season and I’m shocked to see her go but I’m not sad after the way she acted. I was howling at Ellie’s set, I honestly thought she’d somehow pulled a win out of her ass after her set. Yes it was bizarre and random but seeing how much the judges were laughing I’m shocked she wasn’t at least high, especially over Lawrence. I’m shocked she got called safe though, really thought the judges set her critiques up for her to be eliminated so I’m glad that wasn’t the case. I can’t believe how boring Lawrence’ set was for a comedy queen and his runway outfit was vile, I can’t believe he got so much praise tonight. He’s had quite a noticeable step down in performance since lockdown I really hope he goes next. Also what was he even mad about, he was THE comedy queen, the one to beat. He shouldn’t have had anything to be concerned of and just totally self-sabotaged himself. Tayce was such a god damn professional this week it made me fall in love with her. I found he set not bad either, some decent laughs and great looks. Tbh found it quite rude how Michelle was expecting it to suck, Tayce has that type of personality that could have easily pulled out a great set even with not being a comedy queen. As for the lipsync I do think she just about beat A’Whora but not enough to components for her 3 bottom placements and only 1 win compared to A’Whora co Stanton strong run bar the one low week. I’m glad she stayed but I’m not sure it was the right decision. Bimini what can you say; great set, great look, great everything. Bimini for the win!!
March 4, 20214 yr someone please help me - where am i going wrong with bimini? i just don’t see what everyone is seeing :cry: she won wearing a blazer + a cut off polo neck sweater tonight?! if any other queen wore that wig they’d be dragged for filth.
March 4, 20214 yr I'm so shocked Ellie Diamond is top four. Why though? it’s not like she’s sucked that badly at any challenge. In fact she’s the only Queen never to be bottom 2
