RuPaul's Drag Race: No T, No Shade

Week 6! And what a way to start off... They had the Pit Crew pose with pants and numbers inside, if you found a monster before you stopped, you lost all your points.

My boo, Bryce in pants.

I don't think you've got a monster in there, Bryce

BJ, Fang and John with a nasty surprise in their pants.

The main challenge this week was to act out a version of the story of Merle Ginsberg not coming back for Season 3 of RPDR.

I am SO FUCKING SICK of the acting challenges this season. Where are the creative 'give them some scraps' sewing challenges? I miss them. Also, for reasons I'll explain later I'm not entirely sure what is going on any more :(

The first group was Kennedy, Katya and Ginger. Kennedy is straight up a Motherfucking Hot Mess right now. She had absolutely ZERO of Ru's mannerisms and couldn't get her shit straight. Her runway outfit was also fucking terrible, that's further down.

Kennedy as Ru, Katya as Merle and Ginger as Michelle.

 Kandy Ho, Max and Violet were thrust together. Honestly, I wasn't scared for Max when I saw the groups, because against these two I knew she would be amazing. I was slightly more scared for her when I saw her take on Merle I was worried because while she got to explain it to Ross Matthews, you don't get to explain it before it's shown to everyone.

Kandy however had issues with her entire thing. Her wig was crazy, with it showing her natural hairline all around the edges and she didn't even understand what she was saying. I appreciate that English isn't her first language, but she should know at this point she should be learning harder.

Kandy, Max and Violet

Jaideyynnn was actually pretty ok, with Pearl and Miss Fame in her group, I'm surprised they didn't come first! It was a pretty entertaining version of the three of them!
Jaidynn, Pearl and Miss Fame

Ru wore one of my more favourite outfits this week, metallic, hourglass, up-do, YASSSS.


Edit: Ru came through to the work room this episode to tell them that this week's runway was "Death Becomes Her" and they all "Ooohed" and these were the outfits. At the time I remember thinking "Well, some of these are very well put together!!" but then during Untucked it turned out that they already knew about this theme before they arrived (as Pearl had used her tanning death outfit for the singing challenge)

I don't like this!! I want to see them sewing and fretting, not grabbing something they already had, or made before they got there. I expect more out of my Queens by Season 7, not less!!

And, as we've got down to 9 queens, I'm happy to put up a picture of each and every one of them from now on!

Katya: Death by Shark Attack

Ginger Ming was eaten out by a bear

Kennedy was pushed into a fire, but she still came back for Week 6 of Drag Race

Kandy Ho - Tru Blud'

Miss Fame has another hole in her head

Tweaked to Pearlfection

Max was heartbroken

Jaidynn - That outfit was criminal!

Violet - Waisting away

At the end, Jaideyennne and Kandy had to lip sync for their lives with Kandy Sashaying away. I was pretty gutted, as Kandy's outfit was pretty basic and I didn't know what to do and I spent the whole song wishing that JDF was gone, but alas, you get a boring black manicure with a hint of Vampire

Thumb > Pinky: Revlon Motorcycle Jacket, Essie Belugaria, Deborah Lippmann Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Sinful Colors Snow Me White with No7 Salsa and ORLY Goth.

Next week? SNATCH GAME!!

    1. You actually reminded me of a point I forgot to make that I said I would - slight edit just before the runway
