Bex is awful when yo watch back now but I stanned her at the time, back then when I was a teenager watching my opinions are so different to now if I watch back :lol:

Except a man hasn’t said it to a woman, Ryan hasn’t said it, Ali has said it. We are basing opinions on the context of what we saw not what might have happened in a parallel universe where someone else said, Christ :lol: If my grandma had wheels she’d be a bike! Omg Bex an icon of our times

I couldn’t care less who she said it about, it was a fairly inoffensive opinion, said to his face in a direct conversation.

Yeah I think we have to remember that, nowadays fewer people watch live. I am tending to watch 2 or 3 episodes at a time when I get a chance as I’m not always around to watch live and they are the viewing habits of a lot of people now. People are allowed to incessantly have their opinion on her and everyone else, but for forbid she does the same… to his face? :lol: I get not liking her, but I don’t get villifying her for something that everyone on this forum and social media is doing to be honest. Either way for me, this thing with her and Khalad is classic BB, mountain of a molehill interpersonal drama and reality TV at its best. I’ve missed BB having people talking like this, disagreeing over a disagreement, that’s the whole fun of the show! I do think a bit of that is lost in the on demand era of viewing but then forums like this that’s still there.

She’s on her sixth album and has had a couple of middling hits, yes the extra push might have got her but she has slowly built up. Gracie just came out of nowhere pretty much and her music is boring as hell, no spark or anything compelling to it at all.

23 not 12 :lol: He is an adult on a TV show not a child. The viewers want honest housemates and Ali as she is autistic will have a more brutally honest way of communicating but of course she’s in the wrong because the sun shines out go the hottest guy in the house’s arse. For me, they’ve lived with Khalad for a week, we see an hour a day, I think for people to start seeing things there must be something there. Either way I’m glad this season is actually bringing disagreements and drama, it’s not just kumbayah and I think there’s more tensions brewing so this will be a more dramatic season which is BB at its best!! I want discord and fractured divisions!

Khalad honestly seems so hyper aware of what he’s saying, like to a point of overthinking everything he says to be the perfect coaster boring housemate. Just not for me at all, I’m sure he is actually nice but I’m bored of it at this point and I just wish he could loosen up a bit.

Khalad is boring as anything but that’s far from the worst of the men in that house :lol: I can’t watch til tomorrow what’s going on with noms?

Alyssa absolutely didn’t win that challenge and Kween most definitely didn’t win that lipsync. No matter what those two did I feel like they were gonna be in the final. I know that Vanity and Tessa have worse track records than Kween and Kitty but there is no point in lipsyncs if they are just going to keep whoever. My top 4 in my judging has actually ended up being Nelly, Pythia, Kween and Tessa. Tessa hasn’t done outstanding but I don’t think there’s any challenge where she deserved bottom 2 really other than this one and she outdid Kween. However in my judging I had vanity still here and Kween sent her home, I thought Tessa’s ad was fine if not the best. I also think it would have been iconic if she was a finalist after being an early out on her season and the only queen on this cast not to be a finalist on her original season. I have Nelly (makeover, advert and girl groups) and Pythia (acting, Snatch and Ball) with 3 wins and Kween (Roast) and Tessa (design) with one win, Kween has been top worthy for a lot of the season but didn’t deserve a couple of her wins imo. Honestly as much as Alyssa has been a lovely presence, in a way I think I’d take Kitty winning over her, at least she has done well in the challenges. At this point I think it’s in Alyssa’s contract that she’d only do it if she won or at the very least never got put in the bottom. Based on her actual run, I think she would be probably the least deserving winner of any Drag Race season. The talent show and maaaaybe the Ball and this advert are the only times she was above average in any of the challenges and she deserved bottom about 5 times.

I think it’s a little more even this time! La Voix and Kyran 3 wins, Rileasa one but apparently a very good track record, not sure about marmalade she just has the one win and has done well this far so I think maybe similar to Rileasa, I can see she maybe wouldn’t do well at a performance challenge but anything else I could see her having a decent run rather than being far behind and a pity finalist. That to me is better than say when Danny and Cheddar had 4 and then there’s Jonbers with none and Peppa with one and tonnes of bottoms :lol: I would love like a 2-2-2-1 distribution where if feels like there isn’t a frontrunner though!

I think Lily will be fine, she’s calmed down enough that I think people just think she’s sweet and having fun, but is still chaotic enough to be great tv. I do think she might be a Trish where she’s a fan fave who doesn’t make the final because she’s polarising to the “casuals”, but then looking at the ratings… I don’t think there’s many casuals left :lol:

For me it says a lot about someone’s morals to support Nigel Farage regardless of if they espouse the views strongly or say offensive things. It is odd that he isn’t “worse” for want of a better word for someone who supports Farage, as in he is fine with having discussions, the drag show was fine to him, and he hasn’t said anything horrendous in his own words as such. Perhaps he is out of touch and rich and just… doesn’t care but again that still says a lot about someone’s morals imo and is not someone I wish to see on my TV for the next six weeks.

Started this today after playing the demo, put about 9 hours into the demo and have played a good few hours today so have just made it out of the starting city. Liking it a lot so far! The story is less my thing than Persona and I am not finding the characters as intriguing thus far, but the combat and mechanics are really impressing me. Persona is my favourite series of all time and P5 Royal is my favourite game of all time full stop so this has a lot to live up to. It is very Persona, but honestly I think the combat system has the *potential* to outpace Persona. The way you can mix archetypes to form what is like a mixed class character is really interesting to me, and I think at higher levels that will get more interesting as you can experiment a lot with skills and builds. Some of them are the obvious RPG tropes but done well, and there’s a couple of decently fun gimmicky ones I’ve already seen. I hope it’s easy to level up Archetypes and “respect” as you get further in as it would be fun to experiment a lot with different ones a lot, the skill inheritance I feel is a better way to diversify skills than the Persona series’ fusion mechanics, and I like that all the party members can be built with a class any way you like. I don’t think the first 10 hours I’ve played has really explored that fully, but like I said I can see a hell of a lot of potential there. I am finding it a lot more difficult than Persona too but that may be because I know that series inside out whereas I’m still getting to grips with this and figuring out what works for me. I think this is going to be a game that starts comparatively slow and gets better, as a lot of JRPGs do really. The social link aspect I am finding far far less intriguing than Persona’s so far, but that may build up too. The scope and worldbuilding are huge and that’s another thing they have over Persona thus far for me. I have seen in the reviews the game takes a while to get going and hit its heights, the reviews are insane so I know I am probably going to adore this as much as Persona in the end :lol:

Marcello is terrifying like… this might be OTT but he’s giving me Sezer vibes, or at worst is days away from something on the level of the Big Brother Australia turkey slap :lol: Genuinely awful awful creep vibes and that goes behind having awful political views or opinions, to think every single thought going round in his mind is based on objectifying whatever woman he sees.

I’ve got a horrible feeling Nathan will do a Henry so I’d rather he went in this eviction tbh. Ryan has been invisible so I don’t feel like it’s essential to get rid of him right now based on a VT comment whereas Nathan I feel is more dangerous to grow and do well here

Looks like Zahirah or Charra go this week, likely the former with Charra on a group high as Rileasa’s team is the winning team but only she gets the badge. Chanel is expected to be bottom with Zahirah and she wins the lipsync to Time Warp

Yuri is lowkey giving Anna Phaylactic, go girl give us nothing! I did think her runway this week was a step up but she’s not really a presence yet and I keep forgetting she’s there which is a shame as I was hyped to see her. Auntie definitely deserved this win, I thought Pi and Majesty deserved to be in the top though.

Love this as an album, I don’t see the point if she had just tacked an Ari verse onto Sympathy or Tinashe had some adlibs on b2b, that would have just been milking the album for the sake of it, this is properly a REMIX album and what Brat could have been in a different life. It showcases all of her influences and sides and kind of feels like a companion book that tells you everything that led to Brat and everything that might come after. I thought Caroline Polachek was NEEDED for Apple but I absolutely love her on the remix of Everything Is Romantic and that makes so much sense now I’ve heard it. Those who hate it compared to Brat frankly are only here for the Brat summer hype and clearly don’t understand Charli as an artist and the influences she’s had, the different sounds she has explored and who she is.

I think so, I think it’s possible she wins Rusical but tea supports Kyran winning that more solidly and I can’t see Kyran not having another win except the top 2 for Snatch Game. I’m not even convinced that SG is a top 2, that’s so random to do a UK3 premiere style thing just in the middle of a season? But 3 La Voix vs Kyran lipsyncs (including the finale top 2) is kind of fun tbh

Rileasa would have been my winner, I didn’t expect that out of her at all!! Kyran was great too but I think her and Actavia both did well with the role so her winning and Actavia just safe was a bit odd for me. Also thought La Voix deserved to be in the top. I thought Lill was the worst in the acting challenge lowkey as much as I love her, but I agree nobody was bad really. Out of the crop, Dita does feel like a weaker one who i wasn’t so sad to lose but every elimination this season is going to feel like a loss as everyone brings something and I actually do like and appreciate them all. I think it’s my favourite series already for that reason, and I also feel like it has a wider breadth of queens not the same old so each week is exciting and you don’t really know what’s coming.

Even without tonight I’d have been surprised if Ryan went over Nathan, as much as I dislike him he has been invisible and people aren’t going to vote him out over one horrid VT comment when Nathan is being a huge Tory royalist with his whole chest every time he speaks :lol:

Kitty’s dip was giving Ma’Ma Queen in the Stronger lipsync

01 Lily 02 Hanah 03 Emma 04 Sarah 05 Ali 06 Daze 07 Martha 08 Khaled 09 Thomas 10 Segun 11 Izaaz 12 Dean 13 Rosie 14 Marcello 15 Ryan 16 Nathan

Kyran wins acting, Rileasa wins next week which is girl groups. Speculated wins: GG - Rileasa Improv/chat show - La Voix or Chanel Rusical - Kyran Snatch Game - La Voix (Kyran top 2) Makeover - Marmalade Stand up - La Voix

I think Nathan might get more evict votes from the general viewers, he has been more vocal compared to Ryan’s just being his VT. Either can go but I’d swing towards preferring Ryan to go as I feel like he’s more likely to fly under the radar and get too far whereas Nathan I think being outspoken will keep being nominated and go early anyway.
