I agree that they want Vanessa to win.

 

What's she going to do at Milkshake though? Get back in her cage?

I suppose Vanessa did the best in that final challenge, but it wasn't a total murder. For me she is one of the weakest winners the franchise has had, I get that it's not all about track records, but she did subpar at best in 4/7 challenges (Snatch Game, Rusical, the crime acting and the chat show improv), and I wouldn't even have given her the makeover win or the high for the talent show (I would have swapped that to a high for the design challenge). I did love hearing her story and journey, but what's the point in having a range of challenges if you can just flop most of them and still win? I'd get it more if she was a really warm, standout personality, but she's not, no shade :lol:

 

I hate to say this but she feels like a token winner just to say they had a trans winner. There was definitely some reason for the fact they wanted her to win all along, there was definitely some favoritism saving her from the bottom a couple of times.

I'm not sure I feel about her shaving her head for the final look because Angele Anang already did it. Very weird that we didn't see it happen as that would be very dramatic.

 

I have to say I didn't love the structure of this final episode. Beyond that, Vanessa was a great lipsyncer! So why did they save her from B2 through the season? She could easily have lipsynced her way to the crown and then people would stan her harder. They could easily have thrown her the episode 1 win as well.

I did really like the final challenge actually being a proper music video, I'll give them that. It added another layer to the usual finale challenge, the episode was structured weirdly though.

I don't understand how people can't enjoy this season? It has drama, the cast is amazing, I think they put the most sad storylines into one season than ever before in Drag Herstory. Perfection. Apart from a couple of decisions of course lol [cough]eliminating Keta when she did the best out of everyone in the challenge[/cough]

 

It became super obvious Vanessa was being pushed to win like no other when her story became center part of each episode. And of course, I'm on Vivaldi's side. She's way too theatrical and that fight has left a damage on her likeability for sure. She looked like an angry woman yelling at someone else's child. Especially since there was absolutely no arrogance from Vivaldi, at least not on camera. Plus snitches get stitches cause they're bitches x

 

Third transgender winner of Drag Race and all of them were... not exactly the best each of those season had to offer, let's just say that. Maybe they'll stop with the tokenism and get on with the competition next season?
