Correct if i am wrong, but, i've heard from a certain source that Visage and Madonna had some sort of rivarly or something about Madonna Lawyer ordering Visage to stop copying Madonna's look. I am not sure of this, i was just told this today

annoying lip quiver aside, detox sang the correct part of the song, and thats why her synch and michelle's lined up. coco was singing the backup instead of the vocal play, which was a mistake.

i would love to see slava and nebraska go at it, but out of drag

Michelle loved it, and since it was her song...

Coco's time was just up.
I couldn't figure out if Roxxxy was sincere when she kept saying that Coco's guy's makeup looked good. I thought it was busted.

No show next week... NewNowNext.
Aisha Tyler's commercials got really annoying really fast.
LogoTV has such limited sponsorship anyway, so you see the same stuff over and over...

I just watched that LSFYL a bunch of times over. It's really not clear due to editing. Mostly because they focus the hell out of Detox and Michelle giving each other love but while there's a moment where it seems like Detox is singing lead and Coco is clearly starting on the chorus (but at which point in the lipsynch?) it is followed by more Detox love (where Coco is no longer clearly doing the chorus and is shown only in super fast flashes) and the end clip shows her doing the solo lead along with Detox.

I would be the first to send home a bitch for synching the wrong part but I tell you, I just hate Detox's lipsynch style SOFUCKINGMUCHHHHH I just can't get past it.

And I happen to be a big fan of the stuff she does with Willam and Vicky so it's not like I'm hating on her.

i think at the end of the day it was all down to coco being in the bottom 2 *again*.

it was her 4th time, i think? so unless she was gonna do something in the lipsynch

that hadn't been seen in 5 seasons, she was gonna go home anyway, i think.

.

i was also wondering about roxxxy being sincere when she said that coco did such

a good job on her vet's make up. but perhaps she was just trying to be nice to her?

it just felt a bit weird since these girls usually get their claws out in the bar

.

i thought the critique coco got for putting her partner in the left over fabric of her

own gown applied just as much to detox. did not like that combo's look at all with

that red/white ronald mcdonald plastic.

.

jinx did another good job. she also seems like a very nice person. the way she did

her challenge and worked with her vet was very sweet imo. plus she seems to just

know so much about the whole history of drag and cultural history in general.

.

alaska/nebraska looked good. although they were right about nebraska's padding.

it looked a bit of a mess. and alaska went back to her default look again with that

wig and make up, i think. it was beautiful, but nothing new for her.

.

roxxxy deserved to win this time i guess, because they did look like family and the

whole thing was pulled together very nicely. but i just don't like her somehow.

.

i'm gonna miss coco's commentary though. when they came for her, about that

busted make up she put on her vet, in the comments she just went for jinx

"they're gonna come for me, when her vet's looking like that?" and then she rolls

her eyes at the camera

Oh for sure it was time for Coco to go. I've been wanting her gone for weeks. I just am fixated on Detox's dreadful lipsynch style (especially since according to her on a scale from 1-10 hers is a 25 )

That combined with the fact that I'm done with all her since part of her main a ppeal to me is that she's supposed to be the bad bitch in the group, has me wishing she go home this coming week and top 3 be left to Jynxx, Roxxxy and Alaska...with the winner being Jynxx or Roxxxy.

While Alaska and Jynxx might give each other a run for their money on the "funny girl" thing, I do thnk that Roxxxy has shown to also have funny in her and overall, presentation-wise she's more polished than Alaska. I do think she was trying to be sweet (more for the troop's sake than Coco's) in saying that his makeup wasn't busted.

On a sidenote, I thought he was the yummiest of the troops as a boy.

Morgan McMichaels was on "Tabatha Takes Over"... She was in a bar that Tabatha redid... She came out dressed as Tabatha, and lip-synched t famous lines and a song, but I can't think of the name... It was cool!

The song was "Bitch" by Meredith Brooks and it WAS cool.

Thanks!

Soooo, this is the oddest season for me. All of my picks have been , errr...umm...picked off one by one and those I didnt' start out loving (Jinxx) have become favorites. I am so dissappointed in how Roxxxy has handled shit with Jinxx (yes I realize I probably spell her name different every week ). I love Roxxxy's drag, but I can't stand stank attitude or belittleling of others. Especially since it's clearly just from feeling threatened by talent.

I was thrilled to see Detox go!

Now I want Jinxx and Alaska to be top two, which kills me cause I really think Roxxxy gives very fierce drag but oh well.

I did mention at some point this is not my favorite season, roighhhhtttt??

its gonna be a monsoon season i feel. I am happy alaska won. However i think she was wrong for saying that Jynxx is not matured enough. Cause if you wanna take immaturity, then Roxxxy, showed how spiteful and childish she was. Detox bye, bye! you did well!!

I just got a chance to watch Untucked...

• Roxxy: WHAT A I can't...
• Alaska: If I never have to hear him/her talk again, it would be fine... that whine is awful. But at least she had the decency to try and be nice to Jinkx.
• Detox: I'm surprised she made it to Top 4.
• Jinkx: Yeah, I think she's got it... Her lip-synch was hilarious!

Detox's comment about Jinkx having to be schooled by the judges and that the show is not RuPaul's school for girls just shows that Detox thinks she's the best and has no room for improvement. If the show wasn't about growth, there would be no judges at all. Her attitude got uglier than her face in this competition. Don't let the door hit ya!

I was disappointed when Alaska named Jinkx as the one that shouldn't be top 3 but was happy she explained to Jinkx it was only because she thought she was the one to beat.

Roxxxy was just nasty! I'm pretty sure America's next drag superstar shouldn't be so insecure. I wonder if she's going to say Jinkx is lucky when she ends up being crowned because I think it's pretty obvious that Jinkx is going to win. Roxxxy has since tweeted an apology after watching last night's episode.

Do you think the activity that goes on in the werk room and in the lounge has an impact on Ru's decision as far as who wins?

so happy that jinkx got to stay, especially after all that hate she got from roxxxy.

.

alaska deserved that win, she did perform best this week.

.

roxxxy, i gotta commend her for being the only one who used candy on all of her

outfits, but her attitude toward jinkx took all the fun out of her. it was just sad to

watch.

.

detox, yeah, she was ok but her looks were all kind of meh and she's just been

coasting for the last few weeks imo.

.

i think it's pretty hard to call a winner at this point. i used to think jinkx would be

the winner for sure, but i can't discount alaska and roxxxy at this point. although

i still feel that roxxxy is just a beauty queen and not that much else. and alaska

is a bit samey, although she did change it up this week with that executive look,

which worked really well.

.

much as i love and root for jinkx, i have to admit that this week she was kind of

awful with her looks the lip synch was hilarious though.

.

excited about the finale. unless someone really fucks up pretty big, it's going to

be a hard call between alaska and jinkx, i think. although roxxy remains a force

to be reckoned with too, i guess.

so, i was on an extended texas trip and missed the last 2 weeks, but caught up today.

i knew detox was gonna phone her way into a loss, but i figured she would make top 3. ego will getcha, girl.

roxxxy is just a bitch and a mediocre talent. watching those two episodes back to back really made it glaringly obvious. i have been on the fence with her for a while, but i am totally done with her now.

i love alaska. shes a class act, a solid talent, and hella-funny. if jinkx werent so god damn GOOD, i would pick her for the win.

JINKX IS TOTALLY GONNA WIN!!!!

#wateroffaducksback

i am so stuck with my decision.

from the start of the show

my favorites were

Alaska Thunderfuck

Jinx Moonsoon

Detox Icunt

Ivy Winters

and i also liked Penny Tration(i liked the name!)

however i have not so strong arguments for both the top two girls. including for roxxy.

Okay, Thunderfuck, has changed alot and been more comedic than the two. Also thunderfuck has never been bottom two or lipsynched for her like.

Monsoon, is just awesome, comedic, unique, talanted, scene stealer, kind,etc.

Andrews, is good at fashion and her makeup is always nice.

but i want either thunderfuck or monsoon to win. im glad if any of those two win truly.

but for miss congeniality it should def. be thunderfuck.

heck i would mind thunderfuck winning congeniality and then monsoon winner. or vice versa.

#wateroffaducksback

in roxxy defense, this year show has been heavly been edited. also i feel sometimes when insecure people are challenged they lash out in anger. i watched a video chat brought to you by logo with andrews, monsoon and visage. it seems its all water down the bridge kind of a deal.

I still feel Jinxx will win, but gotta say that them showing Roxxxy apologizing to her in the lounge during untucked made me wonder if it's a sign of it being anyone's game. On performance I'm OK with any of them winning, what one lacks the other picks up so to me they're pretty even and it's a matter of preferences.

But while Roxxxy was in my initial wish list to win (and not Jinxx) Roxxxy's attitude during the past few weeks reversed all that.

I think Jinkx is going to win. Even though I don't think social media will really factor that much on Ru's decision, she's clearly the fan favorite of this season. And I feel she's really done the most with her career since filming out of the 3.

geeze one is team thunderfuck!

well i'll say it. i want alaska to wind. i like jinx, she truly unique, but her facebook are just doing too much,death threats, bullying, they are doing extactly what jinx is against. but i just feel alaska should win it.

i like punkier queens ala

alaska thunderfuck , peaches christ, sharon needles, tammie brown, etc.

speaking of which i friends of mines mentioned that these three finalist feel like

Shanel(roxxy)

Tammie Brown(Jinx)

Alaska(Needles)

do you agree?

If you go back to one of my first posts this seasons you'll see that I said something like "It's good to see Shanell in the competition"

I'm happy for Jinxx but I still feel that lookwise she's quite often on the verge of (if not fully) mess. She won on performance and charm and, while I feel she's deserving, tonight I found myself rooting for Alaska.

Now that the season is done, I can make the informed decision that Alaska was my favorite queen of season 5. My second personal favorite is still Alyssa.

[Edited 5/6/13 22:59pm]

I am so happy!

I really liked Jinxx...
I had a hard time picking someone through most of the season, but I really started to like her within the past few weeks.

I thought Roxxxy was okay, but apologies could not erase that stank attitude. She was smart enough to know that she needed to clean that mess up.

Alaska's whiny speech pattern alone was a turn-off...

And the outfit in the opening sequence made me wonder why someone who is going for the crown would come out looking like a boy in a bad bikini. I liked her look once she changed, though.

yay for jinkx. i just think she's awesome. going to see her in nyc in a few weeks.

had alaska won, i would have been equally happy.

had roxxxy won, i would have quit watching the show.
