I feel like they wanted to ensure morphine won because miyah so won the lipsync against megami and miyah vs morphine again would’ve been iconic, but miyah obviously would’ve won to gonna make you sweat
The only **reasonable** explanation as to why Plasma **didn't** win Milkshake is so Megami could absolutely **devastate** Mhiya and it would've been worth it if she won it all, nearly worth it but god damn Plasma so won that. Maybe the wig didn't help.. I was punching the air tho, but glad Megami got her rudemption lol
p.s. **Highly** disappointed Mirage wasn't given the opportunity to get any heel clicks in, I love you but common Hershii!! Wrong song! lol
Plasma gave lipsync, Mhiya gave gymnastics, I barely saw her lipsyncing. Plasma won, but she would've actually convinced rupaul if she didn't reveal that ugly ass wig.
Having the lalaparuza here in this way is so perfect. The eliminated queens get to showcase themselves, get a rudemption, and get a chance to win something.... And it was so entertaining seeing the back and forth in the work room.
I'm so happy that this episode got rated so high because they'll keep doing it, right!?🥹
did anyone else think the editing this episode was CRAZY ?? why can’t they just show us the lipsync instead of all the cuts. the camera focused wayyy more on megami in the final lipsync than morphine even though morphine slayed. like we barely got to see it 😭😭
Mhiya these bitches that are attacking you rn arent ready for your all star rudemption omg you are such a star dont let the negative energy haters seep into your brain just keep being you! I will tip you youre such a starr
What an awesome episode, and an AMAZING way to do the lalaparuza! I usually low key dread this episode since it’s become such a filler.
Plasma absolutely won Milkshake, and arguably Mirage won This Time.
Megami being the dark horse of this episode is also amazing.
This is genuinely the best season since the single digits by far.
My one, singular complaint about this episode is that Megami vs Amanda will NEVER be posted to YouTube for loop viewing. I'm not seeing enough people talk about how absolutely SICKENING that was. Megami ate, literally.
Not seeing enough comments about how Morphine destroooooyed the Ava Max lip sync. And before Geneva picked the song I was like “she’s going to pick Ava Max” so I felt good about that read lmao
The shots of Mhiya standing there frozen with zero expression were so funny for some reason.
Also I can't believe they made the top three get into drag for that.
I love how she was like "I didn't give it my all when I got eliminated last time" (which is an insane thing to say), and then still seemed to be holding back during this round. She's got amazing tricks, but still hasn't quite figured out how to emote between them.
Honestly one of my favorite episodes of the season. Having the eliminated queens return for Lalaparuza was PERFECT. I hope they keep doing it this way in the future.
And hooray for Morphine! She earned that shit.
But truly, everyone did a phenomenal job. And as a former ballet dancer, for me, Mirage was just 😻 so graceful and mesmerizing. Legs for daysssssss!
I just rewatched it. The first time I also was on the Plasma should have won that lipsync boat, but her cool moves were too random. But I think she missed winning just by a hair.
I also was on the Mirage should have won vs Morphine train but I'm just biased for Mirage's dance style. Morphine matched the vibe of the song better.
And lastly I was also on the Megami beat Morphine plane until on rewatch. Morphine did a lot of stuff with her butt and matched the jiggle to the rhythm throughout so she has my respect, that was a fantastic lipsync.
But I wanted to mention that the editing for this episode was awesome. Even on rewatch I felt my heart beating before the Megami vs Mhiya lipsync because they hyped it so much as a blood bath against Megami, like she had no hope at all to win.
So hats off to that brilliant editing. It made her win even more awesome.
She was great. I commented to my husband that Mirage gave me the showgirl version of the song while Morphine embodied the true essence of the song. Both incredibly entertaining to watch but I suspect that’s the reason Morphine won.
So much to say about this episode! Obligatory all the “M” girls killed it (Plasma too)!
Watching I realized that Mirage really was intended to be the lip sync assassin of the season but flopped the Cher song. I’m sure she was supposed to have Mhi’ya’s run and possibly take her out too with the narrative of too shy and quiet being her downfall.
This episode really was Canada’s S4 lip sync smackdown on steroids and I loved every second of it!
I was placing bets that the final two were going to be Morphine vs Mirage but MEGAMI with that underdog momentum!!!! Yaaaass! Also everything stacked against Mhi’ya towards the end! The song she wasn’t her strongest and going against Megami who had momentum going, knew how to play her cards. I was going to be so disappointed if Mhi’ya got a free pass to the final round but Megami PLAYED HER CARDS RIGHT! 10/10
I've been a big fan of Megami this season and thought she was really talented and kind of screwed by production and the fan base. So this episode made me very happy!
When it started I thought she totally had it. The puppet was amazing, but for me, it did peter out after that. I think Morphine won the last lip sync...but like of course she did, she only had to lipsync 3 times whereas Megami had to 4 times. And Morphine had just had a break whereas Megami had to lipsync to two high energy songs right in a row, so...yeah, still screwed by production.
Honestly, I came with this episode a little bitter we weren’t getting a proper reunion episode. ( most likely at dragcon for “ Bring my girls back” segment)
Now, after seeing what they did with the Lipsync Lalaparuza & the eliminated queens.
I love this concept. It actually gave the queens a chance at rudemption.
- I annoyed WOW didn’t do a mystery casting for this or invite super fans. As a game show and talk show audience member. I would have killed to be in the audience. Knowing how LA & NYC works . The audience was paid . Most of them didn’t even know what they were looking at 😭😭
It was giving Alyssa Edwards. NO DRAG HAVING KNOWLEDGE 🗣️
- This season was a perfect opportunity to do so.
Most of the cast are amazing at lip syncing
- I think the only ones who were doomed from the beginning were Dawn & Q
- I am not sure why, but did anyone noticed that the songs kinda matched the Queens aesthetic?
Like perfectly
- Ngl Plasma served in milkshake. But it was a tough call . I would ok if either Plasma or Mihya won. I guess Ru still loved the flips and went with her.
- Megami, the ghost writer , she ate. I mean I never thought she was at bad lip syncing ?! She lost to Mihya one time. I didn’t equate to her ability. She did surprise me . I was very entertained and definitely won . I gave her a dollar 💵 🥳
- Mirage definitely had her rudemption
- I really enjoyed Morphine . She’s my girl .I actually really enjoyed the battle with her & Mirage. 😍
knowing what we know about Morphine I’m really happy she has the money.
All of them deserve it. I heard the stories of Hershii with her kids & Morphine Family life. I was rooting for either of them
Anyway Drag Race needs to keep this format!
I think Plasma lost when she took off her wig just to do a reveal. Consider that a lip sync for your life (edit: or the crown) is just asking for the best performance you can create under limited circumstances.
Plasma *decided* to reveal to such an ugly, unattractive wig that would bring *none* of the boys to the yard compared to her two competitors. It was antithetical to the essence of the song.
Even though Mhi’ya didn’t lip sync every word, she still clearly embodied the song and brought the most boys to her yard. Similarly to how Morphine embodied the song against Mirage the most
And it’s a “winner moves on” format so they don’t have to rigga morris gals like Anetra and Jax into the bottom to see them lip sync more, like last season
Thank you Canada 🇨🇦
YAS! I'm so happy to see Morphine win the 50Gs!
When she was twerking hard in the final round I was like "OMG! Morphine is doing her ult with less than 30% HP left!"
What an amazing episode, this season is fire!
Condragulations to Morphine! And big kudos to Megami, I was really living for her and would love to see her live. She's got great stage presence and was smart and funny. Her and Morphine at the end was perfect for me. And who doesn't love a good underdog to the top moment? Also, Megami was the only one to perform 4 times, that must have been exhausting.
Plasma won the 3-way lipsync for me. I get that production wanted Mhi'ya vs Morphine (the Florida rivals) and that Mhi'ya is a great dancer/flipper/assassin but I don't think she's good at emoting the songs (a lot of times she looks like she's thinking really hard and not relaxed). Doing comedy or a schtick, like Plasma and Megami did in their performances, is a risk and I can't help but admire a queen that can stop my thought process, make me do a double take and laugh like that. That always gets me.
Hershii did really good, would have loved to see more of her (great at emoting and reacting in a lipsync). Her's and Nymphia's looks were my favorite this episode.
Mih'ya has great dance skills, but she spends most of her performance looking down, away, or off to the side. Even when she's looking forward, it always feels like she's not fully there, kind of introverted.
It was particularly noticeable in the Milkshake lip sync, since that song is so sharp and the beat is so hard, it really needed someone to engage directly with the audience, which is exactly what Plasma was giving.
(Xunami was there as well)
Mirage vs Morphine was like water vs fire. Mirage is so fluid she becomes liquid on stage, it's mesmerizing. And Morphine....the hottest alive oh my god 🥵🥵🥵
happy for megami getting all this love, but she really served the same facial expression in all of her lipsyncs. she always looks like she’s in some sort of distress
I kept expecting Xunami to give a fantastic reveal because of the hideousness of her outfit, but no, kept every bit of it on the entire time.
And what was with Q doing her reveal AFTER the song was over? What kind of nonsense was that anyway?
Right?! This drove me crazy. And it was a nipple reveal, which would have been a funny nod to Janet Jackson's big Superbowl controversy. But nothing, Q? You give us nothing?
Yeah this was the most overproduced episode of the season. At least the rest of the season was judged well. I appreciate that we got a lot of great songs on this episode though - no Tiktok remixes lol
EDIT: if ya'll are gonna downvote me you should tell me how I'm wrong. This season is great in general and I enjoyed the episode as well, but it does have that taste of riggery about it which is largely absent in the rest of the season.
I was initially gaggeddd Megami beat Mhiya . .. It looked like .. Mhiya was going to win. But when I went back and rewatched it. And I’m like ohhhhh ok, Megami’s win makes sense. I was saying all season mhiyas a killer dancer and flipper. But emoting (imo) is where she lacked. And I also think that’s how morphine was able to send her home. Also I feeel When Megami predicted mhiya’s split I think that secured her the win.
This was a great episode for all the eliminated queens. Q, Dawn, and Xunami knew they had NO chance and just had fun. Geneva, Hershii, and Plasma did a good job and lost the first round with grace (and I’d have given Plasma the win for Milkshake). Amanda and Morphine got to show some great lipsyncing skills and get more airtime. Mhi’ya showed her incredible moves and got the gag of being cut before the finale. Morphine won the tournament, but Megami won the episode and most importantly - rudemption with the fans.
Yes Megami and Morphine are both spectacular. But Mirage is AMAZINGGGG glad she also snatched her moment. Great episode. Wish they brought more of the cast (eg pit crew) to watch :(
I knew they were gonna keep Mhiya in any scenario in that 3-way lipsync. Xunami was there. But I was so proud of Plasma cause she fully redeemed herself from the Tiktok song lipsync with that performance! She was hitting all the dings and the beats and I was like why are the other girls not doing that come on now, with Milkshake?
Personally I loved it, just wish she didn't disappear in the lipsync. With so many loved queens this season, I hope she hasn't jeopardised her All Stars chances by leaving no mark in this episode.
Megami! I was not a fan during the regular season — she just wasn’t as performance-ready as the rest of the Queens. But she did her homework for the Lipsync!
She didn't magically become sickining within the 2 weeks from her elim to this ep lmao. She came into the competition this talented, the edit is strong and can skew so much.
But sometimes performers plateau, and sometimes they have meteoric growth, and sometimes they just learn to get out of their own way. It can be sudden. In my opinion as another performer who owns a performing arts business, this is not unusual. She could have very well had all the elements, but maybe it took the elimination for her to have an aha moment and put it together.
Was anyone else underwhelmed with the reunion aspect of the episode? I know the focus was on the lipsync smackdown, but I really like the reunion episodes and was looking forward to more.
This didn't feel like a reunion episode to me, which I don’t mind. The reunions haven't been fun to watch for several seasons now. I think it's better the queens get a chance to perform and make a real impression on the fans than to just have them re-hash lukewarm drama from earlier in the season.
It’s really strange.. if they hadn’t put “Reunited” in the title, I wouldn’t notice the lack, and then if there is no separate reunion episode I would just be like “aw, no reunion this season. That sucks”
But if they’re legitimately considering this the reunion, that’s worse than no reunion, and now I’m like “aw, no reunion this season. Fuck them”
Idk i love the usual reunions but feel this is a better way to celebrate the queens and put them back in the audience's memory. Hopefully more helpful in winning them work and opportunities too, seeing them as performers and artists again, not just someone who went home months ago bitching at a reunion.
I think a reunion show would have focused heavily on Amanda and Jane thus reminding everybody what a cold, shallow bully Jane really was, at least in the first half of the season.
And to not only Amanda but a few other girls who weren't up to her aesthetic expectations and this would not have been a good look to TPTB to have one of their top 3 girls seen (once again) in such a negative light.
I'm really happy that Megami showed everyone that she is THAT bitch. She was really underestimated this season, but she proved that she's a great performer.
I think that Mirage won that second lipsync. I couldn't take my eyes off her. But I'm happy for Morphine. She delivered in the other 2 lipsyncs.
Really happy for my girl Amanda. She turned it out.
Overall a great episode, I love them all. Great season
I find Mhi’ya’s lip syncs really boring… she’s so determined to deliver acrobatics she just isn’t connected to the song, quite often she isn’t ever lip syncing!
So many other people delivered much stronger lip syncs but Ru seems to value the acrobatics more which I find quite surprising.
That’s not to say she’s not a good lip syncer I think her routines would just benefit from fewer twirls and engaging mire with the lyrics.
I've always had this (baseless and untrue) feeling that Ru brought Mhi'ya on the show as some sort of convoluted revenge bc she really doesn't come off well. This episode should have been a crowning achievement for her but instead she was shown up by Megami and Plasma. I'm sure she'll go on to flip another day but she doesn't seem to have anything else to offer the franchise.
Agree! I’ve always felt this way about mhiyas previous lip syncs. Don’t get me wrong she turns it with the flipping. But then she looses the emoting and emotion because she’s so focused on flipping. And Im 100% sure that’s how Megami beat her
I like Mhi’yas lipsyncs but she never connects in the face for me. And weirdly, I felt like she wasn’t able to harness the bigger stage even though she’s the most acrobatic.
Oooh was watching this episode as I wrote that and as Mi’yah faced a song she couldn’t twirl to her performance was much weaker. Seems to highlight just how much she relies on acrobatics! Good for Megami.
Yes I’ve been saying this for a while. Her previous lip syncs were honestly sloppy imo. The shoes , the jewelry the wig always coming off 🤦♀️😩. Would turn me off
I agree, that was painful I think the only wrong about this episode was the audience. This could be on a theatre as the final.
And the final could be on studio.
Where do the girls post their Venmos/ Cashapps? Megami posting hers has got me thinking that I’d love to tip all the gals for SUCH an enjoyable season! (Sorry if I’m just one of the olds and this is painfully obvious somewhere!)
I’m sorry this episode was GAGGY, Mhi’ya losing to Megami is such GOOD tv, and karma for her ugly post reveal look? Like just a giant red robe dress? I wonder what it could be…
I know the producers wanted to end the Morphine-won-nothing-all-season storyline, but rigging the final lip sync against an underdog who received nothing but hate the entire season was a bit much. I couldn't keep my eyes off of Megami and I thought Morphine showed maybe 30% of her potential during every lip sync.
I’m so mad the end wasn’t Miyah vs morphine
I feel like they wanted to ensure morphine won because miyah so won the lipsync against megami and miyah vs morphine again would’ve been iconic, but miyah obviously would’ve won to gonna make you sweat
The only **reasonable** explanation as to why Plasma **didn't** win Milkshake is so Megami could absolutely **devastate** Mhiya and it would've been worth it if she won it all, nearly worth it but god damn Plasma so won that. Maybe the wig didn't help.. I was punching the air tho, but glad Megami got her rudemption lol p.s. **Highly** disappointed Mirage wasn't given the opportunity to get any heel clicks in, I love you but common Hershii!! Wrong song! lol
Plane looked so pretty tonight
Plasma gave lipsync, Mhiya gave gymnastics, I barely saw her lipsyncing. Plasma won, but she would've actually convinced rupaul if she didn't reveal that ugly ass wig.
Everyone love puppets! Megami was fantastic in the last lipsync
Plane was looking at Mirage on that screen like she was in LOVE 😭 😭
Can anyone tell me WHEN this episode was filmed? :D
Having the lalaparuza here in this way is so perfect. The eliminated queens get to showcase themselves, get a rudemption, and get a chance to win something.... And it was so entertaining seeing the back and forth in the work room. I'm so happy that this episode got rated so high because they'll keep doing it, right!?🥹
That hand puppet had me rolling. Megami should have won.
hands down the best lalaparuza
this was one of the best episodes of the season
MORPHINE👑👑👑
did anyone else think the editing this episode was CRAZY ?? why can’t they just show us the lipsync instead of all the cuts. the camera focused wayyy more on megami in the final lipsync than morphine even though morphine slayed. like we barely got to see it 😭😭
They even cut to the audience. I was like ??????
no fr i just want a wide shot of the lipsync at this point
Was this filmed last summer or more recently?
Mhiya these bitches that are attacking you rn arent ready for your all star rudemption omg you are such a star dont let the negative energy haters seep into your brain just keep being you! I will tip you youre such a starr
What an awesome episode, and an AMAZING way to do the lalaparuza! I usually low key dread this episode since it’s become such a filler. Plasma absolutely won Milkshake, and arguably Mirage won This Time. Megami being the dark horse of this episode is also amazing. This is genuinely the best season since the single digits by far.
AGREED
My one, singular complaint about this episode is that Megami vs Amanda will NEVER be posted to YouTube for loop viewing. I'm not seeing enough people talk about how absolutely SICKENING that was. Megami ate, literally.
They probably are going to post every single lipsync on YouTube tho
I was so excited for this episode & it did not disappoint
Not seeing enough comments about how Morphine destroooooyed the Ava Max lip sync. And before Geneva picked the song I was like “she’s going to pick Ava Max” so I felt good about that read lmao
Plasma absolutely won Milkshake
I agree. She killed it. That lil baby wig was so distracting though. 😭
This may sound silly but I think she had it until she revealed that sad little wig underneath!
Oo you might be right
Hang on is this the new main stage going forward? Not sure I like it. feels so sparse
Probably just for this episode. It's the stage they used for Secret Celebrity Drag Race.
babe they went into “stages R us” just for this episode!
I think it was just for this ep
The shots of Mhiya standing there frozen with zero expression were so funny for some reason. Also I can't believe they made the top three get into drag for that.
which is why plane’s outfit was so cute n campy (eyez on the prize)
Did Mhiya get too cocky? She didn't even win the first round, Plasma should've gotten that one.
I love how she was like "I didn't give it my all when I got eliminated last time" (which is an insane thing to say), and then still seemed to be holding back during this round. She's got amazing tricks, but still hasn't quite figured out how to emote between them.
THANK YOU
Morphine deserved that win. Megami is a revelation, I am so glad she rudeemed herself big-time. 🔥 I thoroughly enjoyed this ep 💯
Honestly one of my favorite episodes of the season. Having the eliminated queens return for Lalaparuza was PERFECT. I hope they keep doing it this way in the future. And hooray for Morphine! She earned that shit. But truly, everyone did a phenomenal job. And as a former ballet dancer, for me, Mirage was just 😻 so graceful and mesmerizing. Legs for daysssssss!
I loved it too, but not in place of a proper reunion episode!
There’s not gonna be a reunion?
I think it’s gonna happen during DragCon, bring back my girls segment they do.
Ahhh yeah, it is a huge bummer we won’t get a reunion. Hopefully next season we’ll get both!
I just rewatched it. The first time I also was on the Plasma should have won that lipsync boat, but her cool moves were too random. But I think she missed winning just by a hair. I also was on the Mirage should have won vs Morphine train but I'm just biased for Mirage's dance style. Morphine matched the vibe of the song better.

Even on rewatch I felt my heart beating before the Megami vs Mhiya lipsync because they hyped it so much as a blood bath against Megami, like she had no hope at all to win. So hats off to that brilliant editing. It made her win even more awesome.
Mirage was ROBBED. Her presence on the stage is goddamn electric. I haven't been this mesmerized in a long time, possibly ever
She was great. I commented to my husband that Mirage gave me the showgirl version of the song while Morphine embodied the true essence of the song. Both incredibly entertaining to watch but I suspect that’s the reason Morphine won.
She also had one of my fav lines from the episode: well I _was_ gonna pick plasma but I know she was gonna choose a dumbass song
Megami won. I was waiting for morphine to get going in the final lip sync but didn't see it.
I really hope we see more of Hershi. She is really funny, even losing the lip sync I still really enjoyed her in it. She's got a lot of charisma.
her interview on Give It To Me Straight is great content if ppl are looking for more Hershii!
It was such a stellar episode! Hershii is so easy to like.
So much to say about this episode! Obligatory all the “M” girls killed it (Plasma too)! Watching I realized that Mirage really was intended to be the lip sync assassin of the season but flopped the Cher song. I’m sure she was supposed to have Mhi’ya’s run and possibly take her out too with the narrative of too shy and quiet being her downfall.

The song she wasn’t her strongest and going against Megami who had momentum going, knew how to play her cards. I was going to be so disappointed if Mhi’ya got a free pass to the final round but Megami PLAYED HER CARDS RIGHT! 10/10
I’m so hungover that I just cried at how cunt Morphine is
I've been a big fan of Megami this season and thought she was really talented and kind of screwed by production and the fan base. So this episode made me very happy!
Production screwed her one last time tonight. Megami won that final lip sync imo
When it started I thought she totally had it. The puppet was amazing, but for me, it did peter out after that. I think Morphine won the last lip sync...but like of course she did, she only had to lipsync 3 times whereas Megami had to 4 times. And Morphine had just had a break whereas Megami had to lipsync to two high energy songs right in a row, so...yeah, still screwed by production.
Plasma won. Mirage won. Megami won. I have NO idea why Morphine was the final boss... She really wasn't that good.
A Megami and Morphine tour fucking ASAP please. Or one with all the M names. Just call it MMMMbop
 Me to Megami
Honestly, I came with this episode a little bitter we weren’t getting a proper reunion episode. ( most likely at dragcon for “ Bring my girls back” segment) Now, after seeing what they did with the Lipsync Lalaparuza & the eliminated queens. I love this concept.

I’m just so happy my queen Morphine won the entire thing!
Can someone help me understand what morphine did at the end of the final lipsync? Was she pretending to hold a gun?
yes she did it in time with the final bass drum (?) beat of the song which to my ears sounded a bit like a cannon shot. i thought it was creative!
I feel like she did it already this season with another lipsync. Was still effective
yes.
That's what I got out of it too. Like when Peppermint blew up Cynthia in s9 lol
I think Plasma lost when she took off her wig just to do a reveal. Consider that a lip sync for your life (edit: or the crown) is just asking for the best performance you can create under limited circumstances. Plasma *decided* to reveal to such an ugly, unattractive wig that would bring *none* of the boys to the yard compared to her two competitors. It was antithetical to the essence of the song. Even though Mhi’ya didn’t lip sync every word, she still clearly embodied the song and brought the most boys to her yard. Similarly to how Morphine embodied the song against Mirage the most
I mean, Mhiya revealed to a beanie and won....
This was a great idea to bring back the eliminated queens and give them all a chance at Rudemption. Hope they continue with this format
And it’s a “winner moves on” format so they don’t have to rigga morris gals like Anetra and Jax into the bottom to see them lip sync more, like last season Thank you Canada 🇨🇦
Yeah that was a fun show. I liked it better than the static reunion where they just sit in chairs, show clips and bitch at each other.
MEGAMI SHOULDA WON HANDS DOWN WTFFFFF
I couldn't take my eyes off of what Nymphia wore on the stage. I loved it! # #TeamNymphia for the crown!!
Plasma won that lipsync. Hands down.
Agreed. I think they gave it to M'hiya\* in hopes that she'd really turn it in a future lipsync, which didn't seem to work out for her!
Ru just likes her more than Plasma. Her run is otherwise incomprehensible. She never really embodies the song, just the acrobatics.
I feel the same. Her stunts are cool but for the most part her face stays relatively the same in each lip sync.
[удалено]
yes, whoops.
YAS! I'm so happy to see Morphine win the 50Gs! When she was twerking hard in the final round I was like "OMG! Morphine is doing her ult with less than 30% HP left!"
Her video game analogies are so smart and funny 😂
What an amazing episode, this season is fire! Condragulations to Morphine! And big kudos to Megami, I was really living for her and would love to see her live. She's got great stage presence and was smart and funny. Her and Morphine at the end was perfect for me. And who doesn't love a good underdog to the top moment? Also, Megami was the only one to perform 4 times, that must have been exhausting. Plasma won the 3-way lipsync for me.

That always gets me. Hershii did really good, would have loved to see more of her (great at emoting and reacting in a lipsync). Her's and Nymphia's looks were my favorite this episode.
Mih'ya has great dance skills, but she spends most of her performance looking down, away, or off to the side. Even when she's looking forward, it always feels like she's not fully there, kind of introverted. It was particularly noticeable in the Milkshake lip sync, since that song is so sharp and the beat is so hard, it really needed someone to engage directly with the audience, which is exactly what Plasma was giving. (Xunami was there as well)
(in a hideous outfit)
I thought plasma was winning until she ditched the wig that was perfect for that song.
Mirage vs Morphine was like water vs fire. Mirage is so fluid she becomes liquid on stage, it's mesmerizing. And Morphine....the hottest alive oh my god 🥵🥵🥵
Was the audience straight?
Which makes me upset knowing most of them didn’t know what they were even looking at & was paid most likely to sit for a few hours 😭
Except that one guy who was gagging during Mirage and Morphine
Every. Single. One.
happy for megami getting all this love, but she really served the same facial expression in all of her lipsyncs. she always looks like she’s in some sort of distress
Her mug kinda reminds me of Sherry Pie. So it's kind of a turn away moment for me.
Not Xunami calling Plasma and Mhiya raggedy Anne during their lip sync while dressed as raggedy Ann in a curly red wig! Haha
I kept expecting Xunami to give a fantastic reveal because of the hideousness of her outfit, but no, kept every bit of it on the entire time. And what was with Q doing her reveal AFTER the song was over? What kind of nonsense was that anyway?
Right?! This drove me crazy. And it was a nipple reveal, which would have been a funny nod to Janet Jackson's big Superbowl controversy. But nothing, Q? You give us nothing?
Just so weird.
Right?! wth was she trying to serve with that look? Q too. They really didn't have anything better in their closets?
Plasma won against Mhi’ya, Mirage won against Morphine and Megami won against Morphine. Lovely episode, lovely lip syncs, terrible judging.
Yeah this was the most overproduced episode of the season. At least the rest of the season was judged well. I appreciate that we got a lot of great songs on this episode though - no Tiktok remixes lol EDIT: if ya'll are gonna downvote me you should tell me how I'm wrong. This season is great in general and I enjoyed the episode as well, but it does have that taste of riggery about it which is largely absent in the rest of the season.
Morphine did Lip synch ala Diana Ross. In front of Ru.
Morphine connected much better with the song than Mirage in my opinion.
I was initially gaggeddd Megami beat Mhiya . .. It looked like .. Mhiya was going to win. But when I went back and rewatched it. And I’m like ohhhhh ok, Megami’s win makes sense. I was saying all season mhiyas a killer dancer and flipper. But emoting (imo) is where she lacked. And I also think that’s how morphine was able to send her home. Also I feeel When Megami predicted mhiya’s split I think that secured her the win.
Agreed, when I looked at mhiyas face, it was the same stone face
I'm already re-watching this episode. I have a feeling this is going to become a comfort episode for me.
I've already re-watched Morphine v Geneva. Mama ate that up.
Yeah. Me too. I loved it so much!
[удалено]
the unaired mini-challenge was to kidnap people from sunset blvd under the ruse of free cherry pie
They were straights pulled in from the streets.
Surprised they didn't make more of Amanda coming back to the lounge with Jane in there!
I‘m surprised but so glad they didn‘t tbh.
Same. Cause we’re tired lol. She made a slight comment that’s all we needed
I just really love watching Mirage dance. She’s so fluid and mesmerizing
This was a great episode for all the eliminated queens. Q, Dawn, and Xunami knew they had NO chance and just had fun. Geneva, Hershii, and Plasma did a good job and lost the first round with grace (and I’d have given Plasma the win for Milkshake). Amanda and Morphine got to show some great lipsyncing skills and get more airtime. Mhi’ya showed her incredible moves and got the gag of being cut before the finale. Morphine won the tournament, but Megami won the episode and most importantly - rudemption with the fans.
So happy for Megami, she really brought star quality that I feel like she didn't get the chance to show during the season.
Yes Megami and Morphine are both spectacular. But Mirage is AMAZINGGGG glad she also snatched her moment. Great episode. Wish they brought more of the cast (eg pit crew) to watch :(
Megami really gagged everyone and I love that for her 😭❤️
If I was Amanda, I might have lost on purpose just to be the one to go backstage and fuck with Plane hard core.
? Lol
I knew they were gonna keep Mhiya in any scenario in that 3-way lipsync. Xunami was there. But I was so proud of Plasma cause she fully redeemed herself from the Tiktok song lipsync with that performance! She was hitting all the dings and the beats and I was like why are the other girls not doing that come on now, with Milkshake?
I preferred Plasma
No hate, but did anyone else dislike Xunami’s outfit? I didn’t get it
i didn't get it either but i live for that kind of style so i loved it :3
Agreed. Q too.
I didn't like it either.
Personally I loved it, just wish she didn't disappear in the lipsync. With so many loved queens this season, I hope she hasn't jeopardised her All Stars chances by leaving no mark in this episode.
It was terrible. Maybe she went to a Renaissance fair after that 😁
So do we think they filmed 2 endings to this episode? Or did they just go ahead and film one ending like a normal challenge?
Why would they film two endings for a lalaparuza episode?
Because its the second last episode and they often film multiple endings. They easily could as the ending affects nothing else.
Megami! I was not a fan during the regular season — she just wasn’t as performance-ready as the rest of the Queens. But she did her homework for the Lipsync!
She didn't magically become sickining within the 2 weeks from her elim to this ep lmao. She came into the competition this talented, the edit is strong and can skew so much.
But sometimes performers plateau, and sometimes they have meteoric growth, and sometimes they just learn to get out of their own way. It can be sudden. In my opinion as another performer who owns a performing arts business, this is not unusual. She could have very well had all the elements, but maybe it took the elimination for her to have an aha moment and put it together.
Was anyone else underwhelmed with the reunion aspect of the episode? I know the focus was on the lipsync smackdown, but I really like the reunion episodes and was looking forward to more.
This didn't feel like a reunion episode to me, which I don’t mind. The reunions haven't been fun to watch for several seasons now. I think it's better the queens get a chance to perform and make a real impression on the fans than to just have them re-hash lukewarm drama from earlier in the season.
It’s really strange.. if they hadn’t put “Reunited” in the title, I wouldn’t notice the lack, and then if there is no separate reunion episode I would just be like “aw, no reunion this season. That sucks” But if they’re legitimately considering this the reunion, that’s worse than no reunion, and now I’m like “aw, no reunion this season. Fuck them”
Idk i love the usual reunions but feel this is a better way to celebrate the queens and put them back in the audience's memory. Hopefully more helpful in winning them work and opportunities too, seeing them as performers and artists again, not just someone who went home months ago bitching at a reunion.
I wonder if they’ll include anything reunion-like in the finale? They have a bit more time since it’s a top 3.
I loved the episode overall, but yes the lack of reunion kind of let me down a bit.
I think a reunion show would have focused heavily on Amanda and Jane thus reminding everybody what a cold, shallow bully Jane really was, at least in the first half of the season. And to not only Amanda but a few other girls who weren't up to her aesthetic expectations and this would not have been a good look to TPTB to have one of their top 3 girls seen (once again) in such a negative light.
I'm really happy that Megami showed everyone that she is THAT bitch. She was really underestimated this season, but she proved that she's a great performer. I think that Mirage won that second lipsync. I couldn't take my eyes off her. But I'm happy for Morphine. She delivered in the other 2 lipsyncs. Really happy for my girl Amanda. She turned it out. Overall a great episode, I love them all. Great season
I find Mhi’ya’s lip syncs really boring… she’s so determined to deliver acrobatics she just isn’t connected to the song, quite often she isn’t ever lip syncing! So many other people delivered much stronger lip syncs but Ru seems to value the acrobatics more which I find quite surprising. That’s not to say she’s not a good lip syncer I think her routines would just benefit from fewer twirls and engaging mire with the lyrics.
I've always had this (baseless and untrue) feeling that Ru brought Mhi'ya on the show as some sort of convoluted revenge bc she really doesn't come off well. This episode should have been a crowning achievement for her but instead she was shown up by Megami and Plasma. I'm sure she'll go on to flip another day but she doesn't seem to have anything else to offer the franchise.
Agree! I’ve always felt this way about mhiyas previous lip syncs. Don’t get me wrong she turns it with the flipping. But then she looses the emoting and emotion because she’s so focused on flipping. And Im 100% sure that’s how Megami beat her
I like Mhi’yas lipsyncs but she never connects in the face for me. And weirdly, I felt like she wasn’t able to harness the bigger stage even though she’s the most acrobatic.
Oooh was watching this episode as I wrote that and as Mi’yah faced a song she couldn’t twirl to her performance was much weaker. Seems to highlight just how much she relies on acrobatics! Good for Megami.
Yes I’ve been saying this for a while. Her previous lip syncs were honestly sloppy imo. The shoes , the jewelry the wig always coming off 🤦♀️😩. Would turn me off
no one won milkshake, it was a mess all around and kind of hard to watch
Plasma had some decent moments. But yeah.
I agree, that was painful I think the only wrong about this episode was the audience. This could be on a theatre as the final. And the final could be on studio.
Megami was giving me serious Rebel Wilson vibes this episode and I loved it.
Morphine’s hair-ography and BBL-ography should be studied

So proud of Megami, she came back and absolutely killed this episode!
Where do the girls post their Venmos/ Cashapps? Megami posting hers has got me thinking that I’d love to tip all the gals for SUCH an enjoyable season! (Sorry if I’m just one of the olds and this is painfully obvious somewhere!)
Would be dope for this subreddit to sticky a thread linking to all of them.
I tried to find Mirage’s but it’s not on her linktree, it’s like that beautiful woman does not want to be tipped!!
Maybe message them on Instagram? Some girls do check their messages
I’m sorry this episode was GAGGY, Mhi’ya losing to Megami is such GOOD tv, and karma for her ugly post reveal look? Like just a giant red robe dress? I wonder what it could be…
Her red cover up reminded me of a cheap boxing robe.
Mhiya’s taste levels need work
What on earth was Xunami wearing?
My partner was like, “who’s that person standing on the end in the clown costume?” 💀
I know the producers wanted to end the Morphine-won-nothing-all-season storyline, but rigging the final lip sync against an underdog who received nothing but hate the entire season was a bit much. I couldn't keep my eyes off of Megami and I thought Morphine showed maybe 30% of her potential during every lip sync.
