She does read a lot older but would have loved to have seen more of her. Some of her drag looked quite interesting. I need to rewatch the lip-sync again but when it looked like she was ready to take off, she just deflated.

Seriously. I expected confetti to shoot out or something. It was one of the more bizarre moments in a lipsync id ever seen.

All I could think about when Veronica was onstage was that Cloris Leachman found a time machine in the 70s and decided to compete.

There’s something about Veronica that I really love. I hope she does well in the show! I just found this video featuring her, Tia and Vinegar Strokes doing a lockdown video lipsync from “Six” which is a lot of fun.

I loved episode 2 from beginning to end. 

It was The Rusical week to Rats. Usually not a fan of the rusicals but this was one of the best. Veronica really lit up the stage as it seems she was in her element. She was perfect head to toe.

Who would have ever thought we would have a lip-sync to Memory by Elaine Paige.

Really, Huss????

What the actual hell was that episode? lol
From start to finish it was just bizarre. This Rusical was the most “unpolished” main stage musical they’ve ever done. Usually they’re lip syncing and have had adequate rehearsal time to put on the show but neither of those happened here and everyone just seemed lost, like they were thrown on a stage with zero direction.
I’m happy for Veronica, I really do love her. But that lip sync. GURL. I mean....how do you even lip sync to that song (which is not called “Memories”)?

I just don’t even know what else to say lol

Maybe its the antibiotics I'm on but I really did enjoy it. I did notice that they listed the song as "Memories" which was odd.

I usually watch each episode twice so I will let you know what I rethink after the antibiotics. :)

I’ll watch it again too. Maybe I’m the one being too harsh on it from first viewing.

Oh that episode was a chore. The judging, the song (both girls were a flop). Tia’s reveal look was a disaster.

I stan Tia! She is the Katya of the Uk! Obsessed! I enjoyed myself but watching with my brother and his girlfriend and having to explain all the references and they’re like “this is good tv?” I’m like... I can’t explain it but I love it! Ha.

For sure thought Veronica would have gone home by now but good for her!!

Having rewatched I don’t think the right queens were in the bottom! Neither were awful.

Holy sh*t that elimination. Also, I loooooved this weeks episode. But holy sh*t.

I think it’s absolute nonsense that Tia wasn’t eliminated last night. Talk about coasting. She’s gotta go. Asttina did not deserve that, basic and simple though her outfit was.

That being said, GREAT episode. I’m utterly obsessed with Lawrence Chaney and I’m thrilled she won that challenge. I had a hard time choosing between her, Bimini, and Sister Sister, but Lawrence is a damn star.

I also loved the whole scene with Ginny and Bimini discussing coming to terms with their non-binary identity. Maybe it took Drag Race a little too long to start showing more shades of gender expression, but they’re definitely getting props from me this year for airing two concurrent seasons that actually take the time to let the girls speak on it.

US Drag Race hasn’t been this good in years. The producers in America need to take note.

And what shocked me last night was I thought Tia actually performed better.

But I agree with everything else you said, especially obsessed with Lawrence. Also, my love for Veronica grows more and more each week. The UK seems to have found the magical ingredient to make the franchise fresh again and I do wish they’d share a little of that with us here in the states.

[SouthernCakes]

I’m a Tia Stan so I thought she was great and I want her to make it - at least through snatch game. To me she is the British Katya. She’s funny and messy in a good way. But I’m surprised. I thought sister sister look was downright awful. But suppose it was better then the other girl.

Veronica doesn’t do it for me. Something about her feels off to me. She comes off as stuck in the 90s or something.

But will miss Asstina. Gorgeous girl!

[Jordan Catalano]

Asttina is so gorgeous and her graciousness on the stage after losing really was nice to see. And I don’t know what it is about Veronica that I’m drawn to. Maybe it is the 90s (her entrance look was pure 1986, though) but I’m here for all of it. And I forgot all about Snatch Game - I bet it’s going to be amazing this year.

[BroadwayNYC2]

Tia really grew on me this week (I thought she should have been in the bottom last week). Thrilled to see her stay.

[SouthernCakes]

Posted: 1/29/21 at 2:45pm

Honestly wrote Veronica off as a filler queen but glad she’s doing so well! I meant more her boy look is 90s! Like the tank top and the overalls look was hmm interesting ha.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 1/29/21 at 2:59pm

Ah yeah, gotcha. And since nobody had ever really heard of Veronica I think it was easy to write her off. And hell this is only the third episode and she could be gone by this time next week but I think she's got the goods to stick around until the end. 

[BroadwayNYC2]

Posted: 1/29/21 at 3:03pm

I don’t know who the front runner is. I get a Jinx vibe from Veronica in terms of how they act, how competitors see her. We might actually see a big girl (finally) win with Lawrence.

[SouthernCakes]

Posted: 1/31/21 at 9:20pm

Yeah I always wait until snatch to see who rises and falls.

I feel - well I hope - we get a moment where the eliminated queens get to renter the comp.

Any idea when the Covid break in filming happened?

Not sure how accurate this article is but it say "Four Episodes were filmed" before lockdown.
