Our last thread got locked... I guess it was timed out since it was started in January.

Here is the original link: http://prince.org/msg/100/375303

About last night (4/2):

• I had the feeling it was going to be Kenya Michaels returning... I didn't think she was that great when she was there before. She's too over the top, and not really "together". Her lip-synch was "too much" for that song. I wasn't sad to see her leave again.

• The DILFS were interesting. Sharon's was a first-class jackass. (Good for Chad! ) Kenya's dad seemed really uncomfortable from beginning to end.
• I just don't like Phi Phi, but she pulled that twin thing off last night.
• Latrice is one fierce big bitch! And I love her laugh!
• I loved Ru's gown this week!

Yes, Kenya Michaels returning was, IMO, the only other option other than Willam. Woulda made good television to bring Willam back, but I guess they want reunion ratings. The LSFYL was ridiculous. She was singing a different song. This is Aretha Franklin, dear. Not Shakira.

The fight between Chad and the DILF seemed forced and fake. The fact they WOULD NOT DROP IT was even more suspicious. I mean is a small misunderstanding (that did not end in anyone running off or crying) really worth bringing up 4 times? Casting a wide net for editorial purposes, I guess, but its clear this season's queens don't have much to say.

You can tell these queens watched all the seasons prior. The You Betta Work! room wasn't quiet in the past seasons. These queens seem like they don't know how to make good, watchable television now that Willam is gone.

I wasn't a phan of Phi Phi's deal. He did really good makeup on the DILF (you can tell he enjoyed painting that fine ass mofo, too) but his own makeup struggled AGAIN. Maybe he's too small and all that makeup clumps up his face to me. It's too clowny. I woulda liked to see him lip synch - not just to see him go home, but because he paints himself like Aretha Franklin anyway. His attitude, of course, is not winning any pageants.

Latrice finally blended her makeup tonight! I know people really dig Latrice, but the copper/caramel foundation is not doing him favors. Dida Ritz does this too and its the first season I've seen a black queen paint their face so light. Bebe Zahara Benet was fantastic at using proper makeup and tones and he never looked like he was PAINTED! It was flawless. Latrice... you can always see the lines by his jaw where he does not blend - but tonight he did it and it looked flawless. Too bad his queen had makeup drawn on with So Big! crayons. WTF was with that mascara and eyeshadow on him???????????????

Whew. Oh and Sharon's was perfect and he shoulda won. I don't care if his dilf looked like a crazy futuristic drag pirate mom with 1 eye. He looked striking and thats more than I can say for the rest of them.

[Edited 4/5/12 22:10pm] Yes, I agree about Latrice's make up. When she starts doing it she looks like H.R Puffenstuff! I'm glad, at least she know how to blend that marmalade!

So sad bout Latrice But OK with the fair decision.

She is so mf classy and FUNNNeeeeeeeee. I love her so much.

PhiPhi makes me nuts but I can't be shady and say she didn't BRING it with her looks. She surely did. I still love Sharon BEST with Chad 2nd and Phi Phi an OK 3rd on technically bringin it.

Everything I was going to say...

I am so happy that Latrice made it as far as she did. That's a fierce big bitch!

I'd love to grab PhiPhi and just shake her!

Everything is such a big deal to her.

And she can serve up some jabs (Latrice puppet song/400lb comment) but just can't ever take them in good fun (Chad putting the snaggle toof on the PhiPhi puppet ).

LMAO @ the dogs with subtitles in the Illusions Lounge.

They love those over the top ghetto names don't they, Latrice, Kenya, I mean really, whats next Boomshikanehneh.

Even here in New Zealand we have Pacific Island queens called Kornisha and Shenehneh.

Kenya is a ghetto name?

I don't even think of Latrice as ghetto so much as older-style name. Like I picture someone's grandmama named Latrice.

I didn't want to touch the use of the phrase, "ghetto names"...

I was thinking the samething

I see no one commented on the highlight show:

The judges' comments cracked me up!

That little monster Eden makes me insane... and I'm just talking about he commercial!

When Ru gave Michele side eye and she was like "I called MYSELF "The Help" and that's ok cause I'm a black man dressed as a white woman...sound familiar??"

I do have a question, though: When PhiPhi made that "Help" remark, she said something about being offended as a woman of color. I Googled her, but I wasn't sure what she meant by that.

You mean Michele? I am not aware of Michele being anything but caucasian. I think she just says in jest. Like if I said I was a black woman, which I know it's hard to believe I am not.

Shut up.

I don't know if it's adversity or sass or both or who knows but often some gay men (not me no never ) gravitate and relate to or just simply hit it off immediately with women of color. I've heard men make this sort of comment but not often women (for the exception of my studio-mate Mary, but she says it with irony because her white-ness is just so evident )

Oh, okay... I was like

Yeah, I know Miss Demeanor was a Sista!

Is anybody watching the finale? What the hell happened to Tyra and Raja's faces????

LOL! Naw, it was definitely them!

That was some bullshit.

Sharon is my fave but that runway look was not cute. I can buy into the squid-fingers but then you gotta sell that shit BIG, like Ursula Sea Witch big, not with a pedestrian dress.

Chad's Versace (I woulda picked different hair, but loved the look overall)

PhiPhi was...PhiPhi

I didn't think their faces looked different. I think both their hair was so bad that it made u think something was up with the face. Yeah, that bad.

LOL! I didn't care for Sharon's runway outfit either but her lipsync was sickening. I think she may pull it off, though. Ru's Facebook lit up within seconds of saying we get to vote and if Ru goes by the votes, Sharon is kicking butt.

I did love Chad's runway outfit. That was fierce as hell!!!

You're right. PhiPhi was...PhiPhi Nothing special.

LOL! At first I thought something was wrong with my tv. Tyra look like she's had work done or a lot of damn tape pulling her face back and I didn't recognize Raja at all, until I heard his voice.

I saw a tweet by someone saying PhiPhi dances like she's directing traffic.

Oh and Michele's tits seemed even bigger tonight.

Oh, okay... Yes.

Tyra's hair looked like she found it in the dumpster behind Diana Ross' house.

Raj's looked like it was packed in a suitcase, and she had no time to pick it out.

That's what I thought when I first saw her, and then I thought it was the orangish makeup...
