Wait, what is this? Am I missing something? Surely they knew as she was crowned on the show? 🧐 I'm confused.

Oh you’re so dumb bless you ❤️

There’s been a quadrillion seasons by now and you still don’t know that they film crownings for each of the finalists and just air the one they want on the night? 😂😂

Regarding the outcome... erm yeah it happened I guess. To give Flesh their dues, they totally ate that music video and that runway outfit was sensational. Their lip-sync was utterly abysmal though, I said to my husband that "You know what Flesh has had the best night tonight" then watching Naya and Mocha absolutely EAT the lip-sync while Flesh basically stepped out of their dress and then just there looking like a rabbit in the headlights I said "yep she just blew it!" I was expecting one of the other two to take it and was championing Naya personally (but more because I really liked them as a person too, Mocha I can take or leave).

I also agree with the comments about too many wins from one "house." Ru is hardly a "looks" queen herself so I'm surprised that more credit isn't given to the true comedy and cabaret Queens who seem to get passed over time and time again (La Voix we are all looking at you, the best drag Queen on the entire show), over the last few seasons for the "Instagram" queens.

So yeah mixed feelings about that tbh, not the greatest season.

(Apologies to mod for the multi-posts I was reading through and commenting as I went - do feel this and the last post are very standalone ones though, however understand if they need to be edited into one).

Each Drag Race Season films multiple endings with each contestant winning, and then the one they air on day is a surprise to everyone. So all the winning reactions in the show itself are totally fake and these live reactions are the only true reflections. It’s to avoid spoilers coming out about who won months in advance, and also probably to have the opportunity to change the pre-planned winner depending on audience reaction throughout the season.

Not all of us pouncing on this

They film all finalists (usually the top two, but obviously a top three this time) being crowned and decide on the winner/edit later.

I think the consensus online was that it was between Mocha and Naya, hence the shooketh faces

Omg really? Have they always done this!? 😮

Where can I watch it!? 😍

Ngl, I did exactly the same as Naya there! 🤣

Finally watched the episode (after @Lee_J was a little bitch xx) and honestly that music video felt like such a fitting ending for UK on the BBC ❤️

Quite honestly, if Mocha had won with that being her final runway I'd have been raising brows and asking some questions lol (didn't really think much of her MV performance either). I'm still gagged that Flesh actually won though because I did feel it was gonna go Mocha's way. Despite going in with some momentum and having some of the most memorable moments from the season, I just didn't feel it was ever gonna be Naya. Flesh absolutely deserved though, so happy for her

Yet we can't help but adore him. He's our little bitch! 😅 (Although @Viper* might have something to say about that - probs "you can have him." 🤭)

Also I cannot agree more about that music video feeling like such a fitting ending! ❤️

All crownings are pre-filmed, and no one knows who wins until the episode actually airs!

They started doing it I think in season 4 of the main franchise after TMZ leaked that Raja won S3. They even film a double crowning sometimes, although I think the only confirmed one is they filmed Bianca and Adore for S6. Interestingly the one time they did for god knows what reason do a double crowning on AS4, it wasn’t actually filmed that way and they had to bodge it together in post

The only reason why they double crowned Monét and Trinity in AS4 was because Monét washed Trinity in the final lip sync, but producers wanted Trinity to win the season over Monét.
