RuPaul's Drag Race: If You Can't Love Yourself, How the Hell Are You Going to Love Somebody Else?

OMG 8 Queens left? Truly after the departure of Kandy Ho there is no chaff left in with the wheat. (Almost) every departure will be a heartache for me, and this week was the first of those wrenches.

Lookit those queens clowning around! Love it when they are goofy

No mini-challenge this week, because the main challenge is SNATCH GAAAAMMMMEEEE.

And after the video-message from Ru and a little guest-appearance by Bianca, they were off to the workroom

Bianca Del Rio, keeping the girls in check!

First off Violet and Miss Fame BOTH wanted to be Donatella Versace. I have no idea why. She's not the first person I think of when I think about funny, comedic people who would be great on a panel. Too many of the Snatch Game contestants go for style over substance. Do they not remember how great Pandora Boxx's Carol Channing was?

Personally I think that was a set up right from the beginning, putting two queens on who chose the same boring non-entity? They absolutely knew that this would happen.

All 8 of our girls still left in the competition
  
Maxx as Sharon Needles

Jayeidannn as Raven Symone

Katyka as Suze Orman

Violet as Alyssa Edwards

Pearl as Big Ang

Miss Fame as Donatella Versace

Kennedy as Little Richard 

Ginger Minj as Adele

I hate hate HATED Kennedy as Little Richard, but then again I just hate Kennedy and her stupid contacts, so I guess I was biased.

What didn't get affected by my bias was how terrible Maxx was :( Seriously absolutely FLAT as Sharon. I knew from the opening part that he was in trouble and that was before everyone else was completely amazing as their characters.

Katya was a bit neither here nor there and Jaidenn was pretty one-lined. I know that these bitches know that they are doing to have to do Snatch Game on the show, I don't understand why they aren't more prepared!!

Talking of prepared, Ru's prepared outfit this week was downright SHONKY - a yellow dress with a see-through pink section over the top and a '60s vibe:

RU! YELLOW AND PINK MAKE ORANGE. IT STRAIGHT UP CLASHES WITH YOUR NAILS AND EARRINGS. It also finishes too early.

The theme for the queens this week was "Leather and Lace" - at least I knew I'd be able to do things with this one!!
Ginger Minj looked STUNNING in her Elvis Prissley get-up

Katya - not enough leather for me, or hair volume, again.

Kennedy - the dress and curves were magical. The hair, not so much.

Violet - growing back on me like a rash that won't go away!

Maxx - those haunting red eyes!

Jaidynn - I really liked this playful look and I loved the hair but the pleather really showed on the hemming

Pearl - Pretty in Pink

Miss Fame - that corset is at least 2 sizes too big for you!

Maxx and Jaidynn ended up having to duel, and the song that was used was Jaidynn all over, Maxx had no chance ("No More Lies" by Michel'le)
Miss you, Maxx

And so, with the spiderweb hat, the haunting red eyes and the corset, this week's Maxx nails are a bittersweet design, complete with rhinestone mole and as I was so hurt there was no grey hair, a faded silver on the thumb.

Clockwise from Thumb: Revlon Steel-her Heart and Avon Mercury Metal, Revlon Colorstay Porcelain with Revlon Leather Motorcycle Jacket over the top, Revlon Top Speed Fire, Revlon Colorstay Porcelain with a stamped spiderweb and finally another nail of Revlon Leather Motorcycle Jacket
