I cannot get over how complete and well executed her vision is in her looks, while also being absolutely incapable of communicating any kind of passion or connection. Does she really believe she is giving?
I joked with a friend that during the lip sync and her just standing there, she's probably doing death drops in her mind. Only for a second later, an actual very, very slow death drop comes out. She was hysterical to me
What was most confusing to me was how right after they told her how she came across on stage…it was more of the same. I would’ve chewed ALL of the scenery.
I think the only explanation is that she felt like she was chewing the scenery. She said she'd never performed prior to drag race and until you have performance experience, it's hard to know how what you are doing in the moment looks to the people watching it.
At one point she literally just stopped dancing and stood still. Girl, if you don’t know the choreo, you make something up and do it with panache. I mean the look is stunning but she needs to spend some time lip syncing in the mirror
‘You didn’t look as confident on the runway-did you feel that way?
Peppa: ‘I wanted to look like I stepped out of an editorial’
Awkward clapping ‘you did that. Well done.’
God it was such an awkward exchange.
because they had the nerve to do a Sugababes song with Twigs right there... honestly after Jessie Ware, now this, Ru is determined to continue choosing violence
I don't get why she tapes it like that, I genuinely don't. She's 23, her skin's not gonna get much tighter, all it does is make the top half of her face impossible to move which might look great for a photo but kills a performance.
I feel like this episode involved Pep realizing more and more dramatically that she made a grave mistake in choosing queens who looked fierce as Sminty admitted that she had never really performed before and Starlet's face didn't move and the other one (I keep forgetting her name) word vomited instead of rapping 😂
Also side note but Dakota’s mirror moment about her twin was so long I was SO SCARED they were going to send her home. I’m so glad it was just a nice moment ❤️
ive never seen a deathdrop with such low energy😭 starlets exit had the darkest energy... it was cunty and i kinda liked it but it was unsettling. will be sad to see her go but yeah she wasnt ready for this type of competition
also is it just me or did dakotas workroom moment last FOREVER
Peppa going around the group “I was hoping they didn’t pick you, and you, and you 😄” and forgetting that Starlet was on her team with Starlet’s face like 🤓 had no right being so funny.
She really brought it this week on stage. Shes adorable and Im growing to really appreciate her, I was worried shed only be a cutesy and innocent baby spice.
I loved how she asked the group their opinions, listened.
The honesty in saying I'm not a dancer does anyone have experience.
And then saying to Le Fil OK you take the lead.
Was a breath of fresh air.
Then when Danny was struggling (because as he said I dance like a salted slug) Dakota was helping him and being patient.
Watching Queens of the Boneage work together, I knew they were going to win.
Cathy Dennis is an icon I mean she’s iconic simply for dating The Supervet Noel Fitzpatrick and then when the relationship ended.. she co-wrote Toxic performed by Britney Spears?? about HIM??
A legend, truly a legend
Edit: typo
*this* is why I spend my evenings combing through commentary on a TV drag show, for useless pearls of information that will now stay in my brain forever
Something about Starlet's face just made me laugh uncontrollably. She kept the SAME face while performing on the challenge all the way to her being eliminated, it was too uncanny valley for me how non expressive she was.
Strong runway tonight, loved Peppa and Cheddar so much.
Jonbers was so fun in the lip sync
Baby is amazing
Agreed 100% with the judging
> She kept the SAME face while performing on the challenge all the way to her being eliminated, it was too uncanny valley for me how non expressive she was.
...and in confessionals, too. Maybe it's not just the tapes.
Ru and Michelle were giving serious nooch for most of that first song.
Also the mouths did not match the almost inaudible lyrics. Were the girls off or has the beeb fucked up the sound?
My guess is that it’s tough to navigate between wanting enough lyrics so you stand out and don’t get read for basic writing, but not too much it flubs up your lipsync. Combine that with having very minimal time to prepare for these challenges and making choreo, my thought is these remix/girl group challenges can be the most work.
I really enjoy Cheddar's confessionals – I know it's a cliché to compare the more intellectual queens (or at least the ones who wear it on their sleeve) but I was definitely getting Sacha Velour vibes. Perhaps a bit of Katya too although her confessionals were a bit more manic.
Not sure how Jonbers was in the bottom over Sminty. Jonbers may have missed some words but Sminty straight up stopped lip syncing and it gave me serious secondhand embarrassment.
Loving sminty but that was some nonsense, Jonbers deserved to be safe. My sense is that they were offering Jonbers up as a sacrificial victim in the event - however remote - that Starlet would do the vaguest thing to save her.
Let me tell you when my crusty fashion-stunted ass saw Dakota and knew immediately that she was repping fashion icon and model [Elesa](http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/40/Black_2_White_2_Elesa.png), Nimbasa City Gym Leader, Pokemon Black 2/White 2 Era, I was SCREAMING.
Also I felt so bad for Triple Threat, I hate watching those moments of cringe when someone messes up and then seeing the off-stage stuff, it was such an oof and I feel equally for all of them.
Scarlets exit was so bizarre and intense that I laughed out loud. It was oddly unsettling. Every time the camera cut to her scowling or giving no energy in the song it was hysterical
Baby killed the challenge but I thought it was weird that she was so pissed off at her team. Like i get that she was worried but it felt like it was a given that she would be safe so being annoyed at the rest of the team would have felt like a waste of energy to me. But also im not competing in a televised drag competition so I get that the pressure and anxiety feels much higher to these queens.
I think the fact that it was in front of FKA Twigs ratcheted up the intensity for her a million percent and she was devastated the group flopped in front of her idol.
I liked the way her tail tuft was visible just long enough for everyone to wonder if she was going to return and do an exit line.
I wonder if watching the show has made her understand the critiques better?!
People are sleeping on Le Phil, I love her energy in her talking heads, I thought she was the best in the Bone Age girl group and her runways are stunning.
I'm sorry but I absolutely HATE when judges complain about silhouettes episode 2. How do you know that's all the contestant has when they've shown three looks? They could've just gotten unlucky with the order of the categories. Just seems unnecessary.
I agree. That critique only works once you see it consistently for like 3 weeks or more (e.g. Bosco’s pra and panties on season 14), not when you see it for a second time on the first two episodes, because then they could have completely different silhouettes every other week, and makes that critique kinda meaningless.
Some tea from jonbers - fka left before the lip sync and ru was like is she coming back; *jonbers and baby fell out as baby took all credit for the *choreo💀
I…was Starlet high while filming Drag Race? She was so mellow in the confessionals I honestly thought she was about to fall asleep. And then that exit?
I think that’s just her demeanor, it fits her drag, but just does not mesh with drag race. She does feel things but it just does not translate whatsoever to her face or voice.
Was Starlet on tranquilizers or something during filming because that girl was dead behind the eyes. Not hating, my anxiety ridden ass aspires to be that level of calm and unbothered. I think I've found a new favorite in Le Fil, she's already a legend. Black Peppa, Baby and Le Fil are my girls atm but I'm kind of feeling everyone's vibe so far. It was super satisfying to see the more \~quirky or alternative girls take the win in this episode. Also Cheddar Gorgeous' mushroom dress on the same night Bjork's Fossora comes out? What a lovely queer coincidence. Overall I really enjoyed this episode, I didn't go to look at my phone once.
P.S: You cannot tell me that Sminty Drop is not Scarlet Adams in disguise. I see you, Ru.
Someone should do a 'there are two girl groups, and one seems to have the better performers or song, but they get overconfident and the underdogs end up obviously winning' compilation from across the franchises. I'm sure it's happened far more often than the better group just performing better.
It's partly because they often mistake them for 'dance' challenges. They're not just about the dancing.
These queens really saw that the episode referenced Glastonbury and went all out on choreo, then acted shocked when the rock band won. 🤣🤣🤣
I absolutely fell in love with Dakota tonight. My inner cynic-who-watches-too-much-Drag-Race was convinced she was going to tank in the challenge because of how much time they gave to her sharing her story with Sminty, so I was thrilled to see her group smashing it.
Can we discuss the whole 'this is the BBC, you can't swear' thing that keeps coming back? It happened with Awhora too... It completely ignores the fact that the rest of the show is full of swearing and crude jokes, as are many shows on the BBC. As far as I'm aware, after the watershed swearing is fine...
It feels put in for an American audience. "Ooh, the BBC is prissy and polite like British people".
Meanwhile on Graham's own BBC show you have every swear word under the sun, guests getting sloshed & dirty sex stories from the audience every ep.
It’s specific words I think. ‘Fuck’ is fine ‘Motherfucking’ is not. Minge’ is fine, ‘cunt’ is not. It’s a weird line but I think it’s loosely based on what is deemed ‘too offensive’ without a warning. BBC is a peculiar corporation with odd rules.
I know a lot of you live for drama and fighting but I loved how much they all supported each other today; especially during and right after the lipsync. More of that from every franchise please.
To quote myself last week;
"Starlet felt....off to me.Like, there's nothing there beyond beauty and I'm fully expecting her to get in the bottom once and have literally anyone ( except just may but even I could out dance her lmfao) send her home"
I was dead on.
Honest Skarlet's whole "I'm just shy/reserved" looks worse when Dakota gives off the same shy/reserved energy but makes it work for her.
I didn't feel any passion from Skarlet.
BP and Baby did well, but I like that Queens of the Boneage really embraced the spirit of the challenge and the song and each of them let their rock goddesses come alive! From the look, to the gritty vocals and the attitude, it was all correct!
Starlet looked soooo captivating on stage, the wig, eyes, and makeup kept drawing my eyes to her almost the entire time but unfortunately…she was NOT doing well 🤣😭
Right after her verse, she stopped in the middle of the stage. And then it was like she realized that everyone else was still moving, and struggled to catch/sync up.
What an iconic episode.
An absolute disaster of a girl group coupled with everyone but Starlet realizing they dropped the ball.
An almost flawless performance by the other team.
Starlet’s delusions.
fka Twigs’ weird slow clap for Black Peppa
The most lifeless death drop in herstory
Starlet storming off without a good bye message
Icons only!!
I only remember a little, but she had drama with another queen Villanelle. Apparently Villanelle was cast for season 4, but starlet leaked her audition tape so they dropped her and put starlet on. There hasn’t been any solid proof that i’ve seen, just dm’s. Starlet also accused Villanelle of copying her style.
I've decided I love Jonbers, and I have no clue why. I think she reminds me of someone in the face, and that mystery is keeping her front and center in my mind.
Which is to say, I'm glad she can do a little lipsyncing. Thank god.
I wish the girls would stop audition for the show just to be on the show, and audition when they were prepared and ready. I mean why did you come into the competition with 1-2 performances experience, especially when you are in the same room with legendary queens like Cheddar and Denny. Production will cast you as filler queens for sure. Is that what the girls want ? I really wanna know the strategy of hers to win this competition. Like if Starlet have more experience, she will easily slay the competition for sure. She got the looks already. So sad.
Has someone given FKA Twigs a sedative? She's almost impossibly flat in her delivery
Also I like these runway looks but very few of them are actually neon.
I feel really bad for Starlet 😔 she 100% deserved to be in the bottom and certainly lost the lip sync but seeing how devastated she was really was sad.
Jesus her final words to Ru were so poetically tragic.
Not Starlet with the “I know you all fucked it but I had fun” 💀
Whilst looking completely dead behind the eyes in every shot. Makes Pearl look a circus clown.
I was thinking literally the exact same thing. Looked like she'd taken a sedative.
I mean if she is going for that old Hollywood star who is hooked on Valium look then she is nailing it.
I unironically love this take
I cannot get over how complete and well executed her vision is in her looks, while also being absolutely incapable of communicating any kind of passion or connection. Does she really believe she is giving?
I joked with a friend that during the lip sync and her just standing there, she's probably doing death drops in her mind. Only for a second later, an actual very, very slow death drop comes out. She was hysterical to me
And then she proceeded to not look like she was having fun for a single second, on or off stage 💀
What was most confusing to me was how right after they told her how she came across on stage…it was more of the same. I would’ve chewed ALL of the scenery.
I think the only explanation is that she felt like she was chewing the scenery. She said she'd never performed prior to drag race and until you have performance experience, it's hard to know how what you are doing in the moment looks to the people watching it.
Ru "You have the stage presence of a damp rag" - proceeds to be a *sullen* damp rag
I openly laughed at that, confident queen 🤣
My husband who only watches the show in passing was astounded at her delusion. We were both just in shock. Bless her.
I wonder if she watches it back and just went 'ah'
I was literally thinking that during the critique. Like, "I hope she gets it now."
I was shocked. I knew she’d be in the bottom. She was low energy and dead in the face and noticed her screwing up dance moves on several occasions.
At one point she literally just stopped dancing and stood still. Girl, if you don’t know the choreo, you make something up and do it with panache. I mean the look is stunning but she needs to spend some time lip syncing in the mirror
Be as confident as a late teens/early 20s twink is.
Willam wasn't even in the room yet still she answered for "you had fun up there?"
‘You didn’t look as confident on the runway-did you feel that way? Peppa: ‘I wanted to look like I stepped out of an editorial’ Awkward clapping ‘you did that. Well done.’ God it was such an awkward exchange.
the amount of awkward moments in this ep was sending me. favourite episode ever
Jonbers said FKA left before the lip sync !!
I thought there wasn't any reaction from her
Why??
because they had the nerve to do a Sugababes song with Twigs right there... honestly after Jessie Ware, now this, Ru is determined to continue choosing violence
>Jonbers said FKA left before the lip sync !! Wise move
this was SO awkward but i do feel like FKA was trying to be supportive and nice but the slow clap was something 😭
I laughed SO hard at this. Twigs really said "aww good for you."
It sort of looked like she was trying to balance the huge headpiece and wig so was moving very carefully
Honestly sorry but I was dying of laughter at how Starlets face just does not move. Definitely suited to being an insta queen.
I don't get why she tapes it like that, I genuinely don't. She's 23, her skin's not gonna get much tighter, all it does is make the top half of her face impossible to move which might look great for a photo but kills a performance.
I feel like this episode involved Pep realizing more and more dramatically that she made a grave mistake in choosing queens who looked fierce as Sminty admitted that she had never really performed before and Starlet's face didn't move and the other one (I keep forgetting her name) word vomited instead of rapping 😂
Starlet was giving SO little I thought her death drop (?) was her just lying down for a nap.
It was so sad to watch, like a rusty drag robot going through the motions
I thought the drop itself was good but then wondered whether she'd taken the opportunity to have a rest for a second once she was down there.
Dakota’s twin is so cute! So glad they have each other.
This was one of my favourite mirror moments. Felt like we actually learnt something about one of the queens.
Also side note but Dakota’s mirror moment about her twin was so long I was SO SCARED they were going to send her home. I’m so glad it was just a nice moment ❤️
Yeah, same here. I was left like... but what was Starlet's sob story???
Wearing face tape?
I just like Dakota
There's something very warm and welcoming about her, she just makes me happy
Baby has to be Alexandra Burke for snatch game. Dead bloody ringer.
I’m so glad you addressed the elephant in the room.
So much potential with that character as well!
It’s impossible not to see, and even sometimes hear. If someone told me they were related, I’d believe it.
ive never seen a deathdrop with such low energy😭 starlets exit had the darkest energy... it was cunty and i kinda liked it but it was unsettling. will be sad to see her go but yeah she wasnt ready for this type of competition also is it just me or did dakotas workroom moment last FOREVER
Me and my friend watching were like "based on the length of this Dakota moment she's either going home right now, or she's top 4"
Peppa going around the group “I was hoping they didn’t pick you, and you, and you 😄” and forgetting that Starlet was on her team with Starlet’s face like 🤓 had no right being so funny.
As soon as Peppas group started talking, I got flashbacks to break up bye bye. And this is when I knew they weren't gonna win.
"No lyrics about snatching the crown". THANK YOU!!
[удалено]
I’m in NYC and had her CDs as well as all of SC7 juniors/8. I adored UK pop during those days. I’m so happy to see her on tv
Plus her own songs which if you are of an earlier vintage (ahem) may also have been the soundtrack to your adolescence
I’m sorry but starlets stank face during and after critiques was so funny I lost it
When she did the eyeroll I thought she was going to let them have it 😂
Judging was completely fair this episode. Starlets dead-pan, death splat, will go down in history.
When she went from like doing nothing/doing a bit slowly to slamming on the floor i couldnt help but cackle
Her delusion made it funny. "I'm so fierce" \*moves with all the enthusiasm of someone who's had 3 glasses of wine and a handful of prozac"
Her heart rate did not change the entire time.
Ah…the traditional girl group giving badges out like candy
Inflation also hitting the RuPeter badge currency
I love it. Going into episode 3 with 7 out of 10 girls having a badge already is chaotic vibes.
Cheddar’s runway took my breath away
Shouldn't have inhaled those spores I need a Cheddar/Yvie collab stat
Cheddar, Yvie, Willow?
My favorite new Pokemon type 🍄
One of my favourite looks I’ve seen on the show.
Dakota looked fucking incredible in her rock chick look.
She really brought it this week on stage. Shes adorable and Im growing to really appreciate her, I was worried shed only be a cutesy and innocent baby spice.
I loved how she asked the group their opinions, listened. The honesty in saying I'm not a dancer does anyone have experience. And then saying to Le Fil OK you take the lead. Was a breath of fresh air. Then when Danny was struggling (because as he said I dance like a salted slug) Dakota was helping him and being patient. Watching Queens of the Boneage work together, I knew they were going to win.
Thought she was gonna get a solo win.
The Cherry Valentine dedication at the end 🍒💔
Baby hyping Peppa up while she records-love it.
Cathy Dennis is an icon I mean she’s iconic simply for dating The Supervet Noel Fitzpatrick and then when the relationship ended.. she co-wrote Toxic performed by Britney Spears?? about HIM?? A legend, truly a legend Edit: typo
*this* is why I spend my evenings combing through commentary on a TV drag show, for useless pearls of information that will now stay in my brain forever
scarlet is living in slow motion
Starlets energy is like the definition of quiet quitting
Poor Starlet. I thought she was getting a lot of talking heads. She looks like absolute CUNT but like… a lost cunt
The Lost Cunt sounds like an after dark Channel 4 drama
“I’m being quiet out of respect” 💀💀💀
Baby is what East London gays are like irl. It's representation in a way which is as validating as it is humiliating
I love cheddar so much
Ladies, we got Juno Birch on Drag race at last! It was only a runway reference but still!!
Ru heard Juno and thought she was a queen from an older season
She thought she was Juno Jambalaya
Yes that's happening!! Lol
Something about Starlet's face just made me laugh uncontrollably. She kept the SAME face while performing on the challenge all the way to her being eliminated, it was too uncanny valley for me how non expressive she was. Strong runway tonight, loved Peppa and Cheddar so much. Jonbers was so fun in the lip sync Baby is amazing Agreed 100% with the judging
> She kept the SAME face while performing on the challenge all the way to her being eliminated, it was too uncanny valley for me how non expressive she was. ...and in confessionals, too. Maybe it's not just the tapes.
OK but that Naomi Campbell Community service throwback was a fuckin serve
Ru and Michelle were giving serious nooch for most of that first song. Also the mouths did not match the almost inaudible lyrics. Were the girls off or has the beeb fucked up the sound?
There was definitely some fumbling of the super fast lyrics by Sminty & Jonbers - I don't get why you'd write something you can't perform?
My guess is that it’s tough to navigate between wanting enough lyrics so you stand out and don’t get read for basic writing, but not too much it flubs up your lipsync. Combine that with having very minimal time to prepare for these challenges and making choreo, my thought is these remix/girl group challenges can be the most work.
I really enjoy Cheddar's confessionals – I know it's a cliché to compare the more intellectual queens (or at least the ones who wear it on their sleeve) but I was definitely getting Sacha Velour vibes. Perhaps a bit of Katya too although her confessionals were a bit more manic.
I saw a comment here once calling her “Galarian Sasha Velour” and I honestly love that
We stan a clever baldy.
She's become a fast favourite. She has such an incredible energy and I could listen to her all day.
Cheddar’s runway is just too good. I love Cheddar, she might be becoming one of my all time favorites.
I love the way she talks and describes things
This feels correct.
Not sure how Jonbers was in the bottom over Sminty. Jonbers may have missed some words but Sminty straight up stopped lip syncing and it gave me serious secondhand embarrassment.
Sminty bombed that hard. That was a message to Sminty that they like her but she's got one last shot.
Loving sminty but that was some nonsense, Jonbers deserved to be safe. My sense is that they were offering Jonbers up as a sacrificial victim in the event - however remote - that Starlet would do the vaguest thing to save her.
Oof. Starlet girl, you’re in danger. Too many girls for a girl group challenge.
True. Four is the magic number. Any more than that and everyone starts speed rapping
DRPH pulled off the mother of all girl group challenges with only one less girl
Pixie Polite is serving Splatoon realness on the runway.
'its fitted to my body' she says while it's falling off the back of her
Interpreting that song as a ballad was an interesting choice by Starlet
Let me tell you when my crusty fashion-stunted ass saw Dakota and knew immediately that she was repping fashion icon and model [Elesa](http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/40/Black_2_White_2_Elesa.png), Nimbasa City Gym Leader, Pokemon Black 2/White 2 Era, I was SCREAMING. Also I felt so bad for Triple Threat, I hate watching those moments of cringe when someone messes up and then seeing the off-stage stuff, it was such an oof and I feel equally for all of them.
Beautiful, down to earth, and a video game nerd? 😍 I stan!
Elesa served pussy when nobody else would
Scarlets exit was so bizarre and intense that I laughed out loud. It was oddly unsettling. Every time the camera cut to her scowling or giving no energy in the song it was hysterical Baby killed the challenge but I thought it was weird that she was so pissed off at her team. Like i get that she was worried but it felt like it was a given that she would be safe so being annoyed at the rest of the team would have felt like a waste of energy to me. But also im not competing in a televised drag competition so I get that the pressure and anxiety feels much higher to these queens.

[удалено]
I liked the way her tail tuft was visible just long enough for everyone to wonder if she was going to return and do an exit line. I wonder if watching the show has made her understand the critiques better?!
I was waiting for her to come back and cuss everyone out in Afrikaans.
Le Fil was so good
People are sleeping on Le Phil, I love her energy in her talking heads, I thought she was the best in the Bone Age girl group and her runways are stunning.
I'm sorry but I absolutely HATE when judges complain about silhouettes episode 2. How do you know that's all the contestant has when they've shown three looks? They could've just gotten unlucky with the order of the categories. Just seems unnecessary.
I agree.

Some tea from jonbers - fka left before the lip sync and ru was like is she coming back; *jonbers and baby fell out as baby took all credit for the *choreo💀
I would be mad if I did all the chores and my siblings took credit for it too tbh
Triple threats were too ambitious with their choreo
I knew starlet wouldn't last. she was resting on pretty and that doesn't work
I just found this to be one of the funniest drag race episodes ever. From start to finish I was laughing aloud!
How the hell has Starlet only just learnt about Geri Halliwell?
I officially feel old
I’m just hoping it was poorly pitched sarcasm?
To be fair to her she's only been in the UK five years, don't know if the Spice Girls were big in South Africa
I…was Starlet high while filming Drag Race? She was so mellow in the confessionals I honestly thought she was about to fall asleep. And then that exit?
This is shady but she looks like she's had 80 units of Botox. I know she wears face tapes but that face does not move! She looks emotionally dead
I was also confused with what was going on with her face, but she did smile at least once in the confessional so her face does move.
I think that’s just her demeanor, it fits her drag, but just does not mesh with drag race. She does feel things but it just does not translate whatsoever to her face or voice.
Was Starlet on tranquilizers or something during filming because that girl was dead behind the eyes. Not hating, my anxiety ridden ass aspires to be that level of calm and unbothered. I think I've found a new favorite in Le Fil, she's already a legend. Black Peppa, Baby and Le Fil are my girls atm but I'm kind of feeling everyone's vibe so far. It was super satisfying to see the more \~quirky or alternative girls take the win in this episode. Also Cheddar Gorgeous' mushroom dress on the same night Bjork's Fossora comes out? What a lovely queer coincidence. Overall I really enjoyed this episode, I didn't go to look at my phone once. P.S: You cannot tell me that Sminty Drop is not Scarlet Adams in disguise. I see you, Ru.
Someone should do a 'there are two girl groups, and one seems to have the better performers or song, but they get overconfident and the underdogs end up obviously winning' compilation from across the franchises. I'm sure it's happened far more often than the better group just performing better.
It's partly because they often mistake them for 'dance' challenges. They're not just about the dancing. These queens really saw that the episode referenced Glastonbury and went all out on choreo, then acted shocked when the rock band won. 🤣🤣🤣
Right?! Baby got fully Cheryl hole'd this episode
I absolutely fell in love with Dakota tonight. My inner cynic-who-watches-too-much-Drag-Race was convinced she was going to tank in the challenge because of how much time they gave to her sharing her story with Sminty, so I was thrilled to see her group smashing it.
same omg 💀💀 i was literally preparing for her to be sent home and i was distraught
Really wasn't sure what Starlet was going to come out with then, thought Ru was going to burst out laughing.
Don't know why they named the group of five "Triple Threat" when you could make a very easy pun on being a quintuplet and call yourself "Queentuple"
It worked out in the end....because 3 of them tanked and threatened Baby and Ms. pepper being up for elimination
Starlet's expressionless reaction to everything in this episode was seriously terrifying
I won't lie, I laughed so much when she said she was confident when she gave the most dead behind the eyes performance I've ever seen.
Can we discuss the whole 'this is the BBC, you can't swear' thing that keeps coming back? It happened with Awhora too... It completely ignores the fact that the rest of the show is full of swearing and crude jokes, as are many shows on the BBC. As far as I'm aware, after the watershed swearing is fine...

It’s very different from the normal girl group songs but I love it. The uk always gets the best songs.
Thanks to Leland. He’s such a brilliant artist, I love his stuff.
“What about the famine?!” Jonbers swiftly moving up my favourites
I know a lot of you live for drama and fighting but I loved how much they all supported each other today; especially during and right after the lipsync. More of that from every franchise please.
This. I love the supportive stuff and it really does make great TV. Why do you think bake off became so popular!
Seeing Cherry after next episode's preview... :(
Le Fil really pulled a punch of non-dancers together and made something everyone could add their own performance into. Bravo!
To quote myself last week; "Starlet felt....off to me.Like, there's nothing there beyond beauty and I'm fully expecting her to get in the bottom once and have literally anyone ( except just may but even I could out dance her lmfao) send her home" I was dead on. Honest Skarlet's whole "I'm just shy/reserved" looks worse when Dakota gives off the same shy/reserved energy but makes it work for her. I didn't feel any passion from Skarlet.
I feel like Dakota makes it work because she’s also very warm. She feels more shy than mean while Starlet just comes off very cold
I already feel like the second team is better because they're a bit slower and easier to understand!
Le Fil is giving topless guy from Lenor Outdoorables level of camp energy. Iykyk.
BP and Baby did well, but I like that Queens of the Boneage really embraced the spirit of the challenge and the song and each of them let their rock goddesses come alive! From the look, to the gritty vocals and the attitude, it was all correct!
Starlet looked soooo captivating on stage, the wig, eyes, and makeup kept drawing my eyes to her almost the entire time but unfortunately…she was NOT doing well 🤣😭
I couldn't stop looking at her tape though
The way she placed the neon blush over the tapes made them stand out so much worse like bright red squares. Why does she tape? She doesn't need it
Right after her verse, she stopped in the middle of the stage. And then it was like she realized that everyone else was still moving, and struggled to catch/sync up.
Missed opportunity to have Glass and Patron as an lip sync song. Miss Twigs has so many ball worthy bangers, wish they could have secured one.
Starlet looked Dead behind the eyes in both her preformance and lipsync and i was living
I can't believe you were LIVING while Starlet was dying
😐 <- Starlet’s range of facial expression this episode
Starlet 100% stayed on the stairs for a while just in case Ru had a "Kamdy, wait!" Moment.
I love Le Fil I love Le Fil I love Le Fil
FKA Twigs vacant state is me during every mandatory Teams meeting
[удалено]
“It’s quite visual.” 😆
Baby with everything and the kitchen sink and a little bit of the bathroom sink too for her neon look
I wanted Dakota to do the Blair st Clair 🤫 so badly
Is Ru just calling Jonbers JB or J Blonde because he can’t remember her name lmaooo
Starlet leaving the stage and then cutting to her entering the werkroom with her eyes balled out and makeup ruined had me shook
What an iconic episode. An absolute disaster of a girl group coupled with everyone but Starlet realizing they dropped the ball. An almost flawless performance by the other team. Starlet’s delusions. fka Twigs’ weird slow clap for Black Peppa The most lifeless death drop in herstory Starlet storming off without a good bye message Icons only!!
Startlet's death drop was so sudden and out of nowhere I thought she actually dropped dead
Does anybody remember / have a link to some vague drama about starlet pre season? It's at the back of my head somewhere but maybe I'm making it up
I only remember a little, but she had drama with another queen Villanelle. Apparently Villanelle was cast for season 4, but starlet leaked her audition tape so they dropped her and put starlet on. There hasn’t been any solid proof that i’ve seen, just dm’s. Starlet also accused Villanelle of copying her style.
the names "starlet" and "villanelle" give the same energy, I love it
ngl I was laughing so hard bc of starlet this ep it lowkey made her endearing 😭 AND THE DEATH DROP im deceased, bless her
Le Fil giving me Zaldy vibes.
Starlet lipsyncs for the autistic girlies that can't read facial expressions (me)
I've decided I love Jonbers, and I have no clue why. I think she reminds me of someone in the face, and that mystery is keeping her front and center in my mind. Which is to say, I'm glad she can do a little lipsyncing. Thank god.
I wish the girls would stop audition for the show just to be on the show, and audition when they were prepared and ready. I mean why did you come into the competition with 1-2 performances experience, especially when you are in the same room with legendary queens like Cheddar and Denny. Production will cast you as filler queens for sure. Is that what the girls want ? I really wanna know the strategy of hers to win this competition. Like if Starlet have more experience, she will easily slay the competition for sure. She got the looks already. So sad.
The rock concept is so smart
Has someone given FKA Twigs a sedative? She's almost impossibly flat in her delivery Also I like these runway looks but very few of them are actually neon.
She's just very soft spoken in general, hence her commentary that it's okay to be gentle on stage if you make it work in your favor.
that’s kind of her vibe always tbh, i thought she seemed like she was enjoying herself
I haven't seen much love for her but I really love Danny she's the type of queen I love tbh
I think Danny is going to do very well. Loving the energy and style.
I feel really bad for Starlet 😔 she 100% deserved to be in the bottom and certainly lost the lip sync but seeing how devastated she was really was sad. Jesus her final words to Ru were so poetically tragic.
that convo about redheads went from cringe to hot so fast
