>what if the queens refused to give one of their number the chop?
You play the game or production will threaten you with your contractual obligations and consequences of not doing it. Ask Ilona on Canada who refused to lip synch against Tynomi.

Fair enough -- I hadn't heard that about the Canadian queen.
I still hate the gimmick. All it does is foster back-stabbing and malice backstage. If the queens are doing the deciding, there's no reason for RuPaul to be there at all.

Not sure if you're aware... But you're watching reality TV.
Update! Ru is hosting Drag Race Australia! They'll be filming in NZ because of they don't have community spread of COVID and Run just landed to begin her quarantine!

Based on the clip CT2NYC provided, it's the lip sync losers voting off one of their own. I still say it's gonna be Elliott.

WHOA. I didn’t think they were allowing anyone in, but that’s amazing is Michelle there, too?
I would assume so. NZ has opened itself up for international productions with strict monitoring during a 2 week quarantine. Power Rangers, which also films in NZ, was allowed like... 40-50 people in between the US and Japan.
Another episode I will most probably have zero desire to ever go back and watch again. The setup for this season so far is horrid.

It was so dull. Untucked was a torture to get through. Someone needs to tell Michelle those wigs are not doing her any favors. It really ages her.
I like the split premiere's and how you get to learn all about everyone in them. But this premiere is essentially 3 episodes and if next week is like this week, I won't know hardly anything about them, just as I hardly learned anything about this group.
In their desire to keep the show "fresh", they're just ruining what makes it work.
Also, Kandy Muse is just as delusional and grating as I knew she would be from that intro video.

I too find this all boring as it’s gonna be a month before we get a first real episode. But also happy it’s that popular they can milk t
It.
Love Kandy Tina and Symone
I don’t see the Lux love. She’s fine but her outfits are off
>>Someone needs to tell Michelle those wigs are not doing her any favors. It really ages her.
Its not a wig... Its her hair. She couldn't get her hair dyed due to the lockdown and has since opted to keep the gray streak. People seem to not grasp that she's 52...

I know exactly how old she is. I played Seduction at the clubs when they first hit it big. And met her when they appeared at the club I was working. Whether it is her own hair or a wig, she has the ability to look years younger with the right style and makeup. She looks older with this current style. If true, she should have bought some Clairol and did it herself.
GottMik in her final runway look reminded me of Chita Rivera in Merlin.
Here is hoping the show continues to improve.

Yeah it’ll be about a month before we get a first real episode.
Olivia lux should have won that lip sync, Kandy is unwatchable trash , Elliott with two t’s is the only one I really like so far.
Still better than season 11 though. Gottmik, Symone, Olivia Lux, Tina Burner, and Rose are ones I'm keeping my eye on.
So far I don’t get the appeal of Tina Burner. And the whole “YOU’RE A SPY” thing was ridiculous. Sis, this is Drag Race - not The Mole and Ru decides who goes home based on performance, not some secret weekly vote that a spy is needed. And Elliott’s looks are far and away better than anything Tina has shown so far.
I don't like Tina's personality, style, or makeup, at all. I think she comes across as cheap and unpolished.

Cheap?! She may be a lot do things but she’s polished. I’m really liking her and her comedy. I think she’s ones to watch and excited to see her Snatch Game! I think people just are bashing her for being somewhat similar to Sherry Pie. But she’s her own thing and she’s great.
Her and Symone are my favs. I don’t get the Olivia love. Her outfit was all wrong. Frumpy and she had zero shape.
Yes, cheap. I don't find her fashion aesthetically pleasing, and I question her taste. Sherry Pie's looks and makeup were on another level.

I don't like Tina (certainly not bashing her) because she comes across too full of herself and just for no reason, mean. One can have confidence, but if you raise your confidence by insulting and lowering others, that's not confidence in my book. If that is the storyline they gave her, so be it. They obviously told her to go with the spying shtick. Even she can't be that dumb on her own. Also good for Elliott for giving it back. Kandy tried to come for her when they were first beating their faces. Elliott shot her down.
