Bernie has activity on a mobile game and might not be on now but the tea collectors are keeping her under likely. I think she’s the most likely to win so that opens it up a bit for everyone else! Also apparently this is still in both Filipino and English, with translators present, so I assume it will be like Drag Race Thailand 2 when they had international queens, but then at least in this case English is widely spoken in the Phillipines.

The only issue with CBB is because it’s obviously so short, nominations are a bit lacking as they’re every couple of days so it’s pretty much going to be the same people. And there’s the likes of Daley who will coast to the final with no nominations… I do worry it will be Jack, Patsy and Chris/Jojo so Patsy will go, hopefully Ella is in there too and she can go, which I could see as she did get a couple last round. I am coming around to Jack a bit I think he is quite funny but he doesn’t bring a huge amount and it’s frustrating if we keep losing bigger characters who bring more over him. I am also loving Donna she’s becoming one of my faves for sure.

I’d bet on Bernie, Xilouhette, Khianna and Viñas in the finale, but I’d assume they will have at least one of the international queens get there too, I think Suki could do it. All of those 4 could be a front runner vTW they went on so it feels like a bloodbath on the PH queens front! Very excited to see how all of those will slay. It does feel too straightforward so I wonder if we’ll have a shock early out and then like Ivory Glaze makes the final or something.

Nobody would say a thing if Jojo was a straight girl and Chris was gay either I don’t know why it’s seen as so acceptable to question her orientation just because she has a very close friendship with a guy. I also don’t really get why everyone is so caught up in them being friends like… of course people are going to be closer with others. Ella annoys me more every day, I just cannot fathom being this jealous over a lesbian just because a man doesn’t like you. And people have said how Jojo is playing a game because she grew up on TV, Ella obviously comes from TOWIE and is spending her entire time in here acting like she’s gone on Love Island. Dynamically this is a very odd but interesting cast, I swear they all kind of hate each other so I feel like every round of nominations has the potential to be totally different.

Anetra can’t show up to a gig let alone a whole other season lol Kinda crazy how they got basically ALL the most stacked PH queens and everyone else it was kind of “whatever Asian queens they had”, no shade but I’d be surprised if any of the global girlies won anything other than Suki for a design challenge/ball.

Sigourney is getting 7 wins and a high for vulnerability

Some more tea: Bosco vs Daya to Just Like A Pill in round 1 of the Lala, Daya wins However another source said the top 4 who win the first round of the Lala is Lydia, Bosco, Jorgeous, Ginger, and also said the top 2 song is It’s Raining Men There is apparently some kind of Rate A Queen element to the finale, no idea how when it’s a Lalaparuza, maybe it’s like a Miss Congeniality type thing where the finalists can choose “their” winner or something as well as the actual winner Double crowning was filmed Honestly with It’s Raining Men I can see Ginger winning, if it was Confident I could see either. A double crowning in this chaotic mess of a season would make sense though

Titans 2 has just gone to sequester before filming, rumours of the cast: Likely: Blackberri Cynthia Doll Disasterina Jay Kay Loris Priscilla Chambers Sigourney Beaver Possible: Abhora Evah Destruction Jaharia La Zavaleta Inactive but unlikely, not supported by rumours: Erika Klash Foxie Adjuia Jarvis Hammer Stacked cast potentially, not that fussed on Jay Kay at all, Evah wouldn’t be my first choice to return from S1 and definitely don’t need to see Abhora back, rumours indicate that there is a season 1 returnee. It is kind of funny they’ve ran out of S2 queens to return so they just grab Abhora yet again lmfaooo

I agree, I could see it. I mean Colson came 3rd off nothing, if he keeps having this storyline of constantly being nominated but doesn’t actually really do anything bad (or we don’t see it), paired with the rabid Corrie fanbase in the first place, I think it easily could be enough sadly. Even if he does have a villain edit or something I think the contrarians will kind of love that and that will boost him. I could still see Jojo or Danny, Danny kind of gives me complex slight villain winner but I think he could go either way and completely lose it too.

Has to be Jack for me but I’m thinking 90% Trisha 10% Patsy. I do think Trisha has lost her goodwill and is just annoying people now.

Jane Don’t is a sister of Bosco and Irene, and also was behind the “local girls” drama from a while ago, she got into it with Plasma and said once you’re on the show you’re not a local girl and shouldn’t be taken opportunities from local girls since you can go anywhere.

I’m pretty sure he’s like top 3 best paid Corrie stars iirc and one of the biggest/longest running characters, usually I’m not sure they’d be arsed and would think it’s a bit of a conspiracy but when we’re seeing nothing and he’s been nominated twice now by virtually half the house (or more the first time), I can’t help but wonder. First time around, maybe you can argue people were clutching at straws, but there’s been more discord now and people are still nominating him but we’re seeing absolutely nothing. With Colson for example it was different, he was just nice enough but dull, I think him having a bit of a nothing “nice” edit didn’t feel off or anything.

I honestly think ITV is trying to edit him well so just aren’t showing him

I kind of thought she would since this has periodically happened since like season 5 I don’t mind a lot of the relatives seemingly being debunked since an unknown cast is always fun and you have no idea what to expect

I fear Patsy will go, it really should be Jack though. He’s not really brought anything to the show, the other two have. I think he will get the rabid silent Corrie fanbase, so he’ll be safe as houses. I wouldn’t be surprised at Trisha going because I think people are fed up of her and she has lost a lot of the goodwill she had, but either her or Patsy would be such a loss. Patsy especially I think is just getting going!

I don’t think you can necessarily say she bombs, bottom 4 just means they aren’t top 2. It kind of would be funny if she did though ngl as much as I love her. I’m not reading too much into track record this time around since more than half the cast is bottom for the group stages I am kind of shocked at Mistress bombing but SG and talent show are not her two best challenges. I kind of had her down as the probable winner storyline wise, marketability wise and with just her general potential, so I am surprised she didn’t even make the finale though! Lydia sending her home when Mistress adopts her is also iconic. It will be interesting to see if Ginger and Jorgeous are “pushed” or if they just do that well. Other tea: Cynthia and Ariana are guest judges for a wicked/good witch design challenge, this seems to be in pairs where one is good and one wicked, and Daya vs Ginger to What Is This Feeling? happens here. The other two challenges for this group are a country girl group/rumix challenge guest judged by Orville Peck and The Bitchelor guest judged by Mayan Lopez.

Trisha is simultaneously insufferable yet iconic like… idk what it is, I just find her absolutely hysterical in how absolutely unaware she is Like she genuinely is just walking around like the entire world is an episode of her chatshow. Anyone else I think it would annoy me but when it’s Trisha it somehow makes me absolutely howl.

Early rumours for season 18, the queens left for filming a couple of days ago. Notable names include Big Atlas (sister of Plane and Kori), Athena and Juicy Love Dion (mother and sister of Morphine), Chamilla Foxx (Denali’s mother), Aria B. Cassadine (Queen Of The Universe finalist), and Eva Young (constantly auditioned/rumoured since about Season 5). Presumably Abigail is some relation of Monica Beverley Hillz. Aria is lowkey insufferable so hopefully her under unlikely is right Rumoured: Athena Dion Briar Blush Discord Addams Eva Young Juicy Love Dion Myki Meeks Reign LaRue Possible: Abigail Beverley Hillz Big Atlas Camille Yen Chamilla Foxx Chelsea Piers Holly Box-Springs Jane Don’t Jasmine Julia Starr Kenya Pleaser Miss Kendoll Xa’mona Unlikely but not impossible: Aria B. Cassadine Aurora Sexton DD Fuego Gia Bianca Stevens Mahlae Balenciaga Mindy L’Amour Omara Lynn Vita VonTesse Starr Debunked: Gina Belle Complete Destruction

Ella is very odd I agree, she comes across quite immature. I’ve noticed a couple of times she’s reacted one way to something but if someone else starts getting attention she’ll then turn up the dramatics and fakes sob about it I don’t mean tonight, she had every right to be upset there, but I noticed day one or two when Jojo asked about her relationship status and she just said it normally then when nobody cared she decided to start sobbing dramatically. And she is clearly gagging for a showmance, maybe it’s because she’s from TOWIE and thinks that’s good TV and doesn’t know anything else. If you really just broke up with someone why on earth are you going straight on TV to have a showmance with a bloke from Love Island?! I have to say Danny is disappointing me so far too, he is way too hyper aware of the “character” he’s putting across on the show and cultivates it to be loved by everyone but that’s going to backfire for sure. Especially when he slagged Patsy off for the same thing!

Gawdland winning would do absolute wonders for vTW, not only an ESL queen winning but from one of the lesser watched seasons, and a franchise that other than Pangina who obv was a host that has never had rep in any of the vTW seasons or GAS. As much as I like Mariah I don’t really want another Ru season winner, but I guess it’s not her fault they always win vTW and this time it would be satisfying as she’s on her third run, kind of done dirty both other times, and to make the final, it’s different to say Lemon or Tia who, whilst I like them (adore Lemon) it felt kinda like the season was set up for them. Either way, I’m happy with queens from two of the lesser watched franchises making the finale and getting some good airtime, I think Fontana will be adored by the fans and have a Marina type boost anyway.

Not terrible but I agree with Rob this is just too shamelessly on the nose I just don’t have any reason to go and play this of my own volition over the countless albums of Charli songs I could choose that achieve this sound with an actual bit of personality and charm to it. This whole era of hers does feel like chucking whatever at the wall and seeing what sticks so I wouldn’t be shocked if it was just a Charli leftover at all rather than something she specifically wrote for this project for Selena.

I do get for the tenth season having something different but the problem is AS9 was also a different format for no apparent reason and one that was unnecessary. Like it wasn’t a particularly great cast that needed to be non elim, so it dragged, felt like there were no stakes, and just was a bit a wet squib of a season. Then here we have a great cast but another gimmicky format. I actually don’t want another All Winners next, I can’t handle another non elim season or some random format, there are so many great All Stars candidates from S15-17 I just want a bunch of those and a normal season at this point. But yes it is crazy we’ve even had this many, I think with GAS as well there just isn’t a need to have All Stars every year, they could surely alternate and do each one every other year. I mean the more Drag Race the better for me but I think they kind of run out of ideas and try any old shit when they’ve got so many series to try and make.

That Reddit poster always just says any old shit because she knows it will wind people up lmao, tea did say that Jewels did better at the final lipsync. But I’m sorry if they can edit Jinkx positively and crown her when she stopped in the middle of the lipsync to watch Monet tear it up, they can still crown Onya. Unless Onya like… tripped over and stayed on the floor lmfao. Feasibly I think there is no way they can crown Jewels, it would be an utter joke. No shade to her, love her, but she is so All Stars coded, very almost there. Super charismatic, great performer, but nothing new or groundbreaking and she has room to grow. I could see Jewels in Drag Race Live or Werq The World, and I could see her winning All Stars after that experience and growing with it, but Onya is at the top of her game, I couldn’t see room for Onya to come back if she didn’t win because how could she improve upon this run? Onya has been LEAGUES ahead this entire competition, maybe I’m biased but it’s not even a stretch to say she could have won 6 or 7 challenges. Jewels I’d only give the Vegas Live thing. And I’m not a track record gay, I think the lipsync or challenge on the week should matter, but when it’s one of the strongest competitors of all time vs someone who would be probably the worst main series winner in terms of their run on the show, I just can’t fathom it It would have be a lipsync that outstrips Sasha Velour’s rose petals for me. And even then they’d kind of have to do a double crowning because the top 2 are just so unbalanced imo.

Fontana apparently only wins episode 1, Kate has 2 wins including the last challenge, so that means Gawdland and Mariah also have 2. I’d assume: Talent show - Fontana wins against Zahirah Ball - Mariah Acting/advert - Gawdland Snatch Game - Kate Rusical/girl groups - Gawdland Makeover - Mariah Roast - Kate Gawdland could kind of win any of them she’s very well rounded, I just assume Mariah would win look challenges over the others. I’d kind of love Mariah to redeem Snatch Game or branding or Gawdland to finally be an ESL queen winning Snatch Game finally! It’s a bit meh that only the finalists get wins, but that’s going to be the case with this one win thing. With the tea that Naomy is high for Snatch Game, imagine a random German early out winning Snatch Game with the top 2 format!!

Couple of additional bits: One of the two times Daya and Ginger lipsync is to What Is This Feeling? by Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, this apparently happens pre-merge and could have the two as guest judges or a guest appearance by video or something, it will be similar to Katy Perry in the premiere of S17 as it was filmed before the movie came out (except people went this unlike Katy). Not sure what challenge it is, Ginger wins all 3 and Daya wins 2 with her Mistress’ talent show is a “Ruzempic” skit, Ginger does a Broadway style number and Aja dances with a machete Episode 1-3 descriptions for group 1 reveal a little more. Episode 1 is a 80s heavy metal girl groups/Rumix type challenge, episode 2 is a whodunnit murder mystery improv, and episode 3 is a college basketball players makeover.
