i’m back in love with suzie again lol. she takes everything with such grace meanwhile is just catching strays constantly from the other girls.

I absolutely love that the show is blatantly trying so hard to get her to have a Loosey Laduca crash out trajectory and she’s just here enjoying the challenges like it’s her high school improv club, love that for her

The episode was nice. Maybe unpopular opinion but I thought Jewels beat Onya in the lip sync and it wasn't a double shantay worthy lip sync. Although predictable given family being on this episode and it was a nice/warm episode overall!

Sam was by far the best so rightfully won. So close to the finale now, just 1 more episode to go!

Nearly every comment I’m seeing online is saying Jewels totally ate Onya up and I don’t agree, I think it was absolutely worth a double shantay especially with the tone of the episode. I will just always always prefer a lipsync with soul and feeling like Onya’s, she gave it her all in her own unique way with electricity and charm and you feel in every word and movement how much she loves what she does, whilst Jewels gave a flawless all dancing performance and didn’t miss a trick, she is such a dynamic performer. They gave opposite performances but both at the top of their game in their “genre” of lipsync.

Really they could have done a top 2 lipsync between Sam and Suzie (or Lexi, the comments on her makeover were BS) but those two to 1 Thing would have been so cursed

it was giving Anaconda lip sync with Jewels as Aja and Onya as Dela, it had to be a double shantay

they didn't use it for Illusion they had to use it now

Jewels did well but her timing was off. She needed to slaughter Onya to win imo and she didn't, she just did pretty well.

I think they can both do better though.

I keep forgetting about the Drag Race forum ever since we moved to the new site 😭

Follow the thread and you should get an update when we post

Was a nice epsiode. Glad to see Jewels get 1 more win before the finale. Also Suzie rightly going home, she was quite bad as was Sam. Sam kinda ate the lipsync.

Just seen the preview and Kori Toot makes a brief appearance on TV Liam Kori may fufil the prophecy! Could you imagine Suzie Toot vs Kori Toot?

Also Roople doing the Blair St. Clair "shiver and shush" on the main stage!

Generally a good episode! Although there was no Megami moment.

Hormona vs Lydia

Little bit underwhelming but Lydia rightfully winning.

Joella vs Suzie

Suzie did really well! The right winner.

Lucky Starzzz vs Acacia Forgot

Possibly the best/my favourite lip sync of the episode! They both did so well and Acacia's step by step death drop Lucky did win it out with the basketballs though! I really liked Acacia's reveal as well, partiuclarly the wig reveal she did - so good!

Arrietty vs Kori

I honestly thought Arietty won this, she surprised me! Would've been interesting to see Arrietty go through over Kori. Not that Kori did badly.

Crystal Envy vs Lana Ja'Rae

A really good lip sync! I thought Crystal did better in the first half and Lana in the second half. Honestly a case for either of them winning this.

Lucky Starzzz vs Suzie Toot

Suzie rightfully winning, she did really good. Honestly Lucky could've won this if she had paced herself better and built up her reveals/dancing. She popped those basketballs out almost instantly and lost the lip sync at that point!

Lana vs Kori vs Lydia

Kori rightfully winning this! Pretty much moving on beat the entire performance, loved it! Lana did well and thought Lydia was just OK.

Kori vs Suzie

I wish there was a costume change to allow Kori to get her Kort Toot outfit on. But Suzie killed this. Her lip sync was on point (a few times I noticed Kori missing words here or there), the dance moves etc. Just great. I bet she felt so good beating Kori in particular as well Suzie had such great facial expressions throughout her lip syncs!

Looking forward to next week's final now.

For me it was a breath of fresh air to see some of these queens back. The last couple episodes have been a bit of a strugglebus personality wise and that was completely changed with the return of Kori, Joella and Hormona.

Suzie and Kori both did really well. Imo Kori had harder opponents on the way up though. That said, she was visibly tired in the last one whereas Suzie somehow conserved her energy, maybe used to performing long theatre shows.

It was okay. I don't think we need a LaLaPaRuza every season, especially if the queens aren't performers performers. I at least wish they gave the queens a chance to reset between each round — it becomes a little one-note by the end of it

There was no real standout wow lip-sync in that episode for me, but Suzie surprised me and did great with the songs so I'm glad she won it tbh. Arrietty and Acacia should have won their respective lip-syncs but neither would've won anyway.

The best lip sync of the night for me was Acacia vs. Lucky. The lalaparuza wasn’t anywhere near as good as the one on Season 16. To be honest, the season hasn’t got good lip syncers like Season 16 had.

Lucky was great in her first lip-sync but ran out of tricks real quick for her second one, bless.

They all seemed in such a rush to hash their reveals out within the first 0.0035 seconds of the lip-syncs which was off-putting I think. Just give yourself some time and allow it to happen at a good point in the song that fits lmao

This comment just reminded me of this tweet I saw earlier today.

Very real, and Hormona was just as annoying this episode as she was every other episode she was in.

Kori and Suzie were the only ones that really timed their reveals well I thought, but even then Kori's was just throwing flaps off to reveal some nipple.

Meanwhile Hormona is easily one of my 3 favourite queens of the season!

I'm a little disappointed that we got Suzie looking like Chappell Roan and we didn't get a single lip sync to one of her songs
