i'm not saying the sewing is the least talent, i'm just saying it was the only talent involved in this challenge.

sew a dress, and look pretty.

if they had really wanted to make this a challenge they would have had them do something concerning the topic of gay marraige beyond pose for a goofy photo where you make a joke out of it by marrying yourself.

instead it was just sew a dress and look pretty. so lame as a challenge when you think of how much deeper that challenge could have been especially in this moment in time in this rabidly anti-equality country.

but, still a fun episode. damn funny and big drama.

She definitely lacks stage presence when doing a number:





OH HELLLNAWWWWW!

Impersonating Ru is not female impersonation.

johnart said:

right?

this is why i find most drag queens boring. looking pretty isn't a talent, because it's only interesting for about 15-20 seconds. lip-synching isn't a talent unless you are doing a HUGE production number with a lot of dancers and choreagrpahy.

you need to be funny or sing or rap or something. just standing there and lip-synching is BORING

cborgman said:

I will disagree with you on that lip-synching is boring.
I think if done well (I'm a stickler for good lip-synching) and you have good stage presence and connect with the audience it can all be very entertaining.
Of course I'm making this point because lip-synching is what I did. I did not have big production numbers (dancers cost money). I was simply good at what I did and connected with my audience. And I can say confidently that I entertained many many folk during my decade of drag. If you are a fan of drag as illusion then it doesn't take a whole lot of production to be entertained. Just a solid performer.

I am not a fan of drag queens singing live unless they can mimic a female voice or are doing comedy.

But drag is not for everyone. And neither is every type of drag.

johnart said:

yea, i could have worded that better.

if you can dance and have stage presence, it can be good.

but tyra has neither ability

cborgman said:

Drag can be sooooo many things. There are really a lot of options for finding how to be a good entertainer.

Just being pretty and being able to work a runway or a photoshoot doesn't cut it. That's called being a model, not a performer. I think we definitely agree on that.

I want to do all sorts of naughty things to Raven...

I just watched it this evening...

- Tyra is so freakin' annoying!

- I love Jujubee!

- I liked Raven's dress, but not the Cher wig.

- I'm not really feeling Sahara or Pandora.

- Tatianna was kind of annoying, too. Whiny.

- I wasn't hurt to see Morgan leave.

Someone mentioned about the cheesiness of having them do the wedding pix. I thought it was just a way to see both their "sides" juxtaposed.
I really didn't like the drawing on of facial hair. I get WHY they did it (I think), but it was just as bad as the women who shave off their eyebrows and just draw them back on.

Hey sexy girlfriend!

Jessica Wild's hair was awful, but her performance was cool. Good on her.
I still want to do her as a boy...un-shaved and un-tucked.
I enjoyed Raven too (though I din't love the look on her)! I loved the Eddie bit.

Juju. Tho she needed to get a grip already in the lounge. Enough girl.

Tyra...doin Beyonce for Rock Challenge. Really???


Henry Rollins....

raven jessica and pandora all killed it.

poor juju. i really do love her the same way i loved ongina, and i dont make the comparrison because of their heritage. both are just very lovely people with charisma and sweetness.

cborgman said:

For me, Juju has more sass than Ongina tho. The crying was totally out of control after a while Mah-GAH!

Jessica and Raven killed it!
I just can't dig Pandora... anything she wears or does. Not impressed.
Tyra needs to thank her stars she had immunity.
Tatianna bores me more and more every week.
Poor Jujubee; it happens...
I'll miss Sahara -- she was cool.

Acrylic said:

LMAO that Exorcist Crab Walk thing she did was NOT cute.

Tati actually impressed me. I was glad to see her pull herself out of the zone she was in in rehearsal.

Dude, spiderwalk. It's the exorcist spiderwalk.

sosgemini said:

Spider, crab...Whatever. It was not cute.

6 girls left. Who do you think's going home tonight? I could do without Tyra...

DAMN!!!!! JuJu did them girls ugly

Ms Tyra, was your barbque cancelled ? cause your Grill is Fucked Up

I agree with the bottom two.

After that Lip Sync For Your Life, I agree with who went home.

I agree with the final decision but...

That was a hot latin mess of a performance.
