RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 2 *Trailer Now Out*

[Brave Sir Robin2]

Phi Phi is a talented artist, as her 365 Days of Drag proves. That being said, I hope Alyssa re-enters the competition and takes her OUT. The hate Phi Phi has received online is despicable, but she can only blame editing so much for how she's being portrayed. She may not have sounded as harsh without editing, BUT she did have to say it in the first place.

My dream top three would have been Alyssa, Tatianna, and Katya, but this is Alaska's crown to lose at this point! It's only a matter of time until Roxxxy (beautiful but inconsistent) and Phi Phi are eliminated.

[RippedMan]

I love me some Katya, but she's fading like she did in her season. I LOVE Alyssa and Alaska, and I think it's Alaska's crown to lose. But, I think Detox is the underdog. She's consistently good. Not amazing, not bad. But she's good. And her runway looks are pretty inspired. Plus her boy look is just so entertaining and whimsical. 

[Jordan Catalano]

The way Alaska has been playing this season is kind of making me hope Alyssa comes back and snatches the crown at the end. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE me some Alaska, but I'm finding myself wishing more and more that Alyssa's secret is that she's gonna claim that crown.

I have no insider info. I just follow a lot of what the queens post and accounts of their hosting parties. Periscope and Reddit are where my info comes from. Roscoe's in Chicago hosts a viewing party weekly and there has been a lot of information passed. Alyssa and Coco hosted a few weeks ago and that's when they said some things that pissed Phi Phi off, which seemed to start the war with Alyssa. Phi Phi responded on Twitter, Reddit and Periscope (and Instagram and anywhere else she could, I believe). The Periscopes, where I believe Phi Phi said that Alyssa specifically asked for her opinion among lots of other allegations, were deleted shortly after, but I am sure the other info is still up. There are certainly recaps of all the information on Reddit. There have been HOURS of Periscopes. Some people watched them and recapped. Phi Phi's boyfriend posts on Reddit, too, so he has shared some things.

 

Phi Phi and Tati hosted at Roscoe's last week and audio was recorded and posted. That's where the info about Phi Phi claiming the comments shown for Alyssa were about Detox came up. As I said earlier, WoW posted the unedited footage that proved that wrong. Roxxy and Alaska hosted this past week and I believe it was Roxxxy that said that they were all talking about Alyssa's elimination, not just Phi Phi. Then Phi Phi posted on Twitter that this episode broke her and she cried in her hotel bathroom for a long time. The Ru threw shade. The he unfollowed Phi Phi. Then Phi Phi decided to not go to the reunion. Today Ru tweeted a graphic that said Sour Grapes make the best Whine. Willam has Phi's back. Apparently a story producer named Meesh is the devil. 

 

So, no. No insider stuff. Just a bored housewife. 

 

ETA: Check out Phi Phi's Facebook for a possible spoil of Thursday's elimination. 

[Roscoe]

As amusing as Alyssa is, her real lack of knowledge and just plain talent is a real handicap.  Rigor Morris?  Really?  And her Joan Crawford impressions are not informed by any acquaintance with the real thing, getting by on an almost Tommy Wiseau-level weirdness.  It boils down to one question -- is Alyssa a parody of clueless, or is she really clueless?  

And poor old Roxxy, getting gaslit by Pheces O'Hara AGAIN.  Her runway looks are always terrific, but she can't act or overact for her life.  She needs to go.  Soon.

I suspect that Alaska will be history should she ever be in the bottom set.

 

[TotallyEffed]

Alaska was never in the bottom in her season and I don't see her being in the bottom this time around. The crown is hers.

[ErikJ972]

" It boils down to one question -- is Alyssa a parody of clueless, or is she really clueless?"

I hear what you are saying but don't care. She's funny either way.

[Musical Master]

My reaction to Phi Phi's elimination:

 



Oh and Alyssa is back in the competition, no surprise there.

 

[Jordan Catalano]

Best ever!!! Alyssa AND my Tati are back and that awful bitch is GONE!!!! 

[Brave Sir Robin2]

I loved seeing past contestants in the audience of the main challenge! Special shoutout to seeing Vivacious (sadly without Ornacia)!

[newintown]

So glad THAT'S over. I may be alone in this, but I find drama for the sake of drama to be less than interesting on these reality shows. Now let's have some fun again.

[wonderfulwizard11]

Best episode of the season. So happy to see Phi Phi gone, and Tati and Alyssa gave the lipsync a fire it hasn't yet had. 

[Roscoe]

Poor little Pheces O'Hara and her barely contained rage at the world at large won't be bothering us any more, and I'm okay with that.  It was fun watching Alyssa school the little darling -- seriously, when Alyssa comes off like the grown up in a conversation, you know there's something off about the other person.  And I did love that little "really, darling?" look on Tati's face as Pheces got a little too critical.  

If it wasn't for Pheces and her meltdown, I'd have said it was Roxxy's turn to go.  Her painful ineptitude at comedy and acting is getting downright embarassing.  I'd say she'll be out next, but she's nothing like a serious threat, which might carry her a lot farther than it already has.

[Jordan Catalano]

To be completely honest, if Alyssa and Tati were playing the actual game, they should have eliminated Roxxxy, since she's a strong competitor and there's no way in HELL PhiPhi could ever win. 

[newintown]

I don't think there's any way that Roxxxy could win, but her mediocrity could assist her into the top 3, sadly. That often seems to be the way with Ru - instead of three true top contenders, there are two really good performers and one (sometimes likable) easy discard (Rebecca Glasscock, Alexis Mateo, Phi Phi, Roxxxy, etc.).

[Jordan Catalano]

How DAAAAARE you say that Alexis Mateo is easily discardable!!!!!!

[Kad]

Losing Phi Phi but gaining Alyssa and Tatianna is probably the best deal of the millennium.

[Jordan Catalano]

Here's an "interesting" interview with Phi Phi about last night. 

http://www.vulture.com/2016/09/phi-phi-rupauls-drag-races-edit-and-rupaul.html?mid=fb-share-vulture

[JerseyGirl2]

Phi Phi/Jaremi is not well. He can't be. Willam said, "She should be studied," and that's becoming less of a joke. He's just delusional. Talented? Absolutely. He just has no clue how he comes across. Repeatedly saying Alyssa was playing the victim was HILARIOUS. Whispering to the two that were lipsyncing about how they were better than their partners was ridiculous. He said last night on Twitter that he asked to leave. I am not buying it. Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya. 

[Jordan Catalano]

Yeah, I that interview he says he told them that if they didn't eliminate him, he was leaving. Give me a f*cking break. 

[Kad]

All she is doing is playing the victim now. Evil, greedy RuPaul and the manipulative producers did everything.

[Roscoe]

"It's not personnel, it's drag."

[Brave Sir Robin2]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Roxxxy go next, and I wouldn't be sad if Detox left. My dream top three is still Alyssa, Tatianna, and Katya, but we all know this is Alaska's to lose at this point!

[Lavieboheme3090]

What a fantastic episode of television! 

I agree Roxy is next to go and agree Alaska better hope she is never in the bottom two, other wise she would be sent packing. 

[Someone in a Tree2]

So basically with the new rules for All-Stars, the only way to guarantee survival is stay smack in the middle of the pack: don't be on top too much or you'll be first to get voted off the island when your weaker rival happens to win and thus win the right to give you the chop. Retribution's a bitch! The triumph of mediocrity! 

So, yeah, Alaska had better stay out of the bottom 2 every damn episode from here on out, or she's toast.

 

[Valentina3]

It's interesting that WowPresents' youtube channel did not post the "Behind The Scenes" video for eliminated queen Phi Phi as they've done the morning after each episode so far. Stoking that fire even more.

That being said, Tati KILLED that lip sync. I was rooting for Alyssa until that Lip Sync. I also was hoping that both Phi and Roxxxy would be sent - that would have been dramatic.
