I was sad to see Kelly go. Yes, she deserved to be in the bottom for that challenge but I feel she could have easily made top 5 at least based on her acting/singing experience. Saying that, Vivacious intrigues me. Conflicting opinions as one needed to leave but this is the first time I've found a redeeming value in every single queen (okay, there's one I'm not crazy about) and truly believe each sashay will be a difficult decision.
I was LIVING for last night! These are the queens we've been waiting for (except for Magnolia).
At first I didn't think any of this bunch should have been eliminated except for maybe Magnolia or Trinity but for opposite reasons. Magnolia has NO idea how to beat her face. I can defend that contoured nose until the cows come home but that don't make it right. Probably the worst queen on the history of the show. Trinity is nice to look at but her personality is not doing it for me. The fact that she thinks she's as pretty as Beyoncé is laughable. Maybe if her teeth didn't look like a shrew it would help a little.
I honestly can't decide if I like Biana, Milk or Courtney more. Bianca is the full package. She knows who she is, she's polished, she's hilarious and quick witted. Milk is original which I know the judges don't really like but hopefully they'll give her a chance. Courtney is flawless and I thought she would be lacking in the personality/funny department but when I saw her clucking around like a chicken during the photoshoot I was proven wrong.
The judges have already started to annoy me in their critiques. Telling Bianca that her eye make-up is too much and that Milk should look more feminine next time. These are DRAG QUEENS, they're not fvcking women! There are many facets to drag and not every queen has to try to look as fishy as possible. As much as I love Ru I think there needs to be someone a little younger and edgy on the judging panel to give a perspective of the evolution.
When the two tribes met last night it was pretty hilarious because it was like the adults came in and found kids playing dress up. I'm going to bet that someone from last night's opening will win.

I love Trinity. I really do. She is SMART! She is business savy. She is pop culture savy and NOT just current I was astounded with she pulled out Peg Bundy & Queen Amidala out of her mouth! And she is beautiful! Does she have bad teeth? Yeah, and she knows it. Not like Tyra or Jiggly and walk out on the runway with them, she's got false porcelains in her bag and GOOD ON HER for it.
But I am still Team Bianca. The way she can expertly slap a bitch back into her place is wonderful and she is GORGEOUS! Now Magnolia, I didn't not expect so much bitch to come out of her and with that I'm surprised they didn't keep her for drama!

Really girl? I'll judge your statement based on content rather than grammar/spelling. Just because someone knows who Peg Bundy and Queen Amidala are it doesn't make them some pop culture savant.
On a side note, I'm curious what your tattoo says (if that picture is you). I'm guessing something very poetic like "Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes."

When it comes to a generation that can barely point out pop culture from 10 years ago, yeah I'd say it's worth something. And nobody is calling her a savant, she's savvy. It means she knows pop culture.

Oh how I wish, but that's Jaejoong, a Korean singer. It says "Always Keep the Faith"
Ladies, please: if you're gonna read, at least try to do it at a 7th grade level.
I liked the second bunch of queens a lot. Even Magnolia, though a mess, was not grating or obnoxious. Unless Gia Gunn, who is like having a cheese grater taken to your ear drum. Joslyn seemed to be playing ditz more than actually being a ditz.
I like Bianca and her dress was fantastic. I feel like she'll insult comic herself into a corner though.
Milk is a tall glass of... milk. She's surprising and gutsy and I can't wait to see what she does next.
Courtney is stunning but... that's all. She has personality in the workroom and all, but when it comes time to perform she just reverts to being gorgeous. Darienne was right: she doesn't seem drag. She genuinely seems like a female impersonator.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
Courtney can do bigger and draggier, but I feel she really floundered this week. Her box was "Republican Party" and she had on not a stitch of Red. Not even her lipstick. Love you Courtney, but I am disappoint this week.
I have a feeling Joslyn is going to be similar to Alyssa this season. A lot of comic moments that she doesn't realise she's created. She's definitely be on of my favorites in terms of amusement this year. She seems super sweet too.
I LIVE for Darienne and Bianca. Alongside Ben, I'd love to see them as the top three but I unfortunately doubt we'd see a top 3 consisting entirely of "comedy" queens.
Trinity surprised me. I love her style but was surprised she had such a good humour.
Courtney I feel is a lock for top 3. Not just basing it on the last episode but she always seems so well spoken and classy. Chad 2..just with a slightly less (dare I say..?) boring persona.
If this week was an indicator of Courtney's creativity, I think she may hold on for a bit playing safe until the time comes to cut those playing it safe.
Right now my top 3 are Ben, Milk, and Bianca. April comes in 4th.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
I think it's a very fun group of ladies this season, but I really could cope with a lot less of those uber-losers Santino and Michelle Visage. The latter can be entertaining when she's positive and fun, but when she gets moody and negative, one desperately claws for the mute button. The only reason I can imagine that Santino is on the show is that RuPaul firmly wants NO competition in the room; not only is he on the icky side of the stick, I find that he has nothing informative or entertaining to say.
Michelle needs a better stylist. Her shiz is so tight and her tits are pushed up so high, that I have trouble breathing.
So, think Miss Latrice MFin' Royale is responding to them telling Bianca to tone down the makeup? I thought it was rude and uncalled for. For her look, it was perfect. She doesn't do "pass for a girl" drag. Courtney is beautiful, but it's a completely different kind of drag.
Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel like you're less than f**ckin' perfect!
Agree with Latrice, drag was always over the top. That's the one thing I don't like about this show, trashy can sometimes be great...
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

I love Courtney because of her personality, (though we shall see on the show) but for the most part I like DRAG queens. It's not about a "fishy" (God, I hate that term) look. I want a drag queen to be well put together, but it's more about personality and over the top fun. I never liked, and still don't like, Carmen Carrera. She's pretty. She's much prettier now than even when she was on the show. I just don't think there is any talent there. I saw her perform and it was in the top 5 most boring drag performances I have ever seen. She's a stripper. That's just not drag to me. To others, it seems to be.
