We are at that point in the competition where the girls are asked to get raw.
Ru wants to see more personality from those whove hidden behind runway perfection.
The mini challenge this week asks all the girls to bounce around their big fake titties, potato-sack-race style.
Its very fun to watch in that its fun to watch titties flying way.
Instead, weve arrived at the unconventional-materials challenge, the third design-based challenge of the season.
Thus far, Brooke Lynn has been sweeping the competitions design challenges, and Plastique is feeling the heat.
She knows what box she fits into in the competition; shes a runway girl.
Vanjie and Nina are also feeling the heat based on their negative runway critiques in past weeks.
The former must serve something new, and the latter … well, honey, she must proportionize.
RuPaul comes out and makes a beeline for the boring girls.
Lets getinto it, bitch.
She basically asks Brooke Lynn point blank why she is such a snooze.
Puts me to sleep.
She tells us she is getting emotional and anxious just thinking about getting vulnerable.
I hope she knows that misting up right now doesnt count toward what Ru is saying.
This aint personality yet.
This is, forgive me, raw.
Youll always be my baby, she glows, fully aware she is on television.
Does it work on Plastique?
And Im sure shell absolutelyturn iton the runway.
Putting pieces of corn together to make a couture look?
Not really the AKeria vibe.
Shell be watching her ass this week, and closely.
Alyssa Edwards then cameos so she can be Alyssa Edwards.
I already know that choreo is difficult and that not every girl can nail it in that department.
I know from watching this show.
However, this is not depicted onscreen.
All we get is RaJah telling us in her talking head about that conflict.
This is some telling-not-showing bullshit.
Why isnt RaJah stomping up to Plastique and barking about the bark?
Bitch, if youre gonna be a bitch, be a bitch!
This would give us some personality.
This would give us some life in the workroom, but we dont see it.
I dont think so, honey.
Nina has a big old gorgeous dumb stage face.
Brooke Lynn can dance.
Im not sure what the story of the look is, but it is a look.
Still, it makes me laugh, and thats Ninas whole thing.
Im not super getting farm-to-runway from Brooke Lynns look, but I am getting good runway offering.
Its a denim ensemble with orange accents and accessories, and it honestly feels a little Coachella.
I love that shes the denim version of that character.
Plastique walks the runway last, and does so like a supermodel.
She takes her time showing off her feathered, empress-lite moment, and shes obviously the standout.
Plastique does indeed win, and the predicted bottom two do lip-sync, to Strut, by Sheena Easton.
Both ladies have fun with it, but AKeria is a winner in every sense of the word.
She does just that, and were down one more queen.
… Said the Bitch!
… Said the bitch!Okay.
I will miss RaJahs sudden and intense bitchiness.
She had to go, but at least she went for it.
Not even wanting to read the mirror message?
Maybe she should have pushed it even further and just erased it without talking about it at all?
Just a suggestion from one bitch to another!
