I am SO happy Darby said what I’ve been thinking “this week should have been judged individually and LAST week should have been judged by groups” THANK YOU I can breathe now
I’m sorry but I’ve fallen for the edit and I really dislike kitty. First it’s the judges ignoring her terrible runways especially in this episode, they called Eva’s drag basic expecting her to bring global elevated drag which Kitty hasn’t done, the Ru girls trailer wasn’t even the best so when she made that comment rubbing it in that they were the winning team to the ESL queens I was like okay I’m done. Then she says she wants to see more from Eva like excuse me the nerve to say you want more while wearing that I’m sorry nope. Then Gala being put in the bttm for no reason really pissed me off like Alyssa and Kitty were saved by Kween since Kween carried their team. I knew immediately those three were gonna win no matter how hard the international queens tried. Like the bttm 3 should’ve been Kitty, Alyssa, and Eva with Kitty being bttm 2 with Eva. The 2nd group should’ve won and Soa or Nehellnia should’ve won. Kween winning was strange bc they weren’t the best group but she was the best from their group so they got that part right.
as a huge nehellenia fan from her first season, i love how much you both love her. drag race italia season 2 and 3 are genuinely worth watching. i loved season 1 but i understand its not for everyone because it was the messiest production, but fabulous queens. if you ditched global all stars to just watch drag race italia, i wouldnt mind
I was legit waiting for this!!! Honestly for me it was the comments that Kitty did in stage and then in untuck. Especially after that performance and outfit.
Ru's love for kitty reminds me of her love for baga chipz - seems like she has this idea of what uk queens should be - bawdy, a bit mean and v unpolished, and I really hope people dont think this is what all uk queens are like!
Hi Darby, Hi Alexis! You're both looking lovely today, thank you for the hard work + videos. I just wanted to share MHO today: Alexis, this HAIR + eyebrow combo is REALLY working for me. It gives very "Stockard Channing/Betty Rizzo goes to Bavaria." Have a lovely day
Let's do a Global All Stars where we shame the Global part by diminishing queens who are not native english speakers so we can make the native english speakers the final top 3
Thank you for your service of continuing to watch this series. I pretty much stopped but I am still curious what happened so I have been relying on your reviews for that.
28:03 Thank you for talking about the absolutely unhinged hate from the comments section toward Your Friend Kevin on Very Delta!! It felt so gross that people were bringing up Alexis's personal housing struggles to justify their weird beef against him being... someone they just don't like the personality of?? I've only ever heard sweet things about him from other creators who know him in real life, and I thought his chemistry with Delta was so fun🎉~ The way people were laying into him and piling on genuinely shocked me. He brought her such a thoughtful personalized gift and played right into the irreverent vibe of the show, idk what was so "annoying" about that since it's the point of Very Delta to share strong opinions and idiosyncrasies anyway 🤭🌟 Maybe it's coming from people who don't know how severe housing issues can get when the environment changes in places like LA or elsewhere, why would Kevin be responsible for the rain wtf🤣 Sending love to Alexis during the Heatwave, Darby during med changes, and our boy Kev in general ♡♡♡
The thing that irks me the most about the favoritism is this time especially the girls that won IMHO were #1 NOT the funniest group (I thought it was pirates) and #2 the ONLY group complete of native English speakers. All the other teams had people that spoke multiple languages or at least did not have English as their native primary language and they had to learn and act out a whole script and make it funny!!!! And the girls who did mediocre and had less of an obstacle ended up winning!?!? And then for kitty to rub it in the other girls faces by saying “ohhh you did good but we did bettah” and saying Eva should give more when SHE WAS WEARING THATTTTTTT it just like Darby says becomes so fucking frustrating to watch as a viewer
Gurl.. I feel you on the payment thing. I've been chasing a magazine for over 4 months and they just told me that their CEO died and that payments are delayed because the board needs to sign them or something. I'm assuming my broke ass isn't getting paid.
If I'm not mistaken, Sophie's position in Slag Wars is being filled by Fantasia Royale Gaga from Dragula season 5. It won't be the same without Sophie, though
When Alexis finally gets paid from AARP, should we all like, celebrate or something lmao Also yeah I saw those comments on very delta and was so confused, he seems super sweet!
the fringe look alyssa is wearijg in the workroom is by brazilian designer fernando cozendey, almost all of his work is very campy and made out of lycra, betina polaroid’s promo and first ball look were made by him as well!
im so fucking happy that you gusy also love nehellenia. it PISSES ME OFF that people are trying to paint her badly ON THE SHOW. i want to like kitty but........ actually not just kitty they lwokey all gaslit her abt her feelings when IN THE EPISODE we see someone mention her for the bottom. she is so fucking talented and i dont wanna be that person but it felt like they all ganged up on the person who doesnt speak english as much as them
guys can we talk about the fact that, no other Queens on this season have a storyline then the Rugirls. Kitty, Alyssa and Kween.. Alyssa and Tessa "Mother Daughter" Kitty, Kween bullying Nehellany. that all! I think the top for our Kitty Alyssa, Kween and Nehellena (the underdog)
Yeah the “winner” of this season is illegitimate in my eyes. It’s rigged and the favoritism is gross. 22:30 It isn’t disrespectful to call it out. It’s disrespectful to the other queens to pretend that this episode or that this season is fair or just in any way. If I were a contestant I would be appalled. If I were a favored contestant I’d be disgusted because it undermines my talents. It makes it look as if I need to be favored by production to win. Like my talent and hard work aren’t good enough on their own to win. Then if I were one of the disfavored queens, apart from my disgust I would be angry. Angry at the favoritism and watching how a queens mediocre performance is judged to be better than a stellar performance. Now there are specific queens that have let this go to their head. I won’t name them but I know any one with an objective view will know exactly who these queens are. On their seasons they were the queens of mediocre. When you say “Yasss queen give us absolutely nothing” they were the ones you would yell that too. They had terrible runways on their seasons and a bad to okay performance on most of the maxi challenges. Can they perform? Yes. Can they give it to you at a lip sync. Yes. Now that where it stops. They aren’t look queens. They aren’t challenge dominating queens. When it comes to drag race as a show, it isn’t their forte. So now that they are being favored they are acting like their poop doesn’t stink. Like girl, on your seasons you were meh. You’ve come back giving the exact same thing and you can’t do the math on your own to realize that it’s the favoritism? They are clapping back in Twitter like they are the ones being wronged. I pray that I’m self aware enough to never look like they do. For me, this season is a joke. I also won’t be shocked if it’s the last season. One part of me would like it to be the last. So that when the “winner” tries to act like they “earned” the win you can clap back with “it was the obvious favoritism and rigging of the season that got it canceled. It was the fact that people who should have moved forward went home. It was the fact that those who should have gone home and been eliminated from the competition stayed to compete another day. It was the fact that the show champions were made to look unworthy of their placement because of the games production played that this version of drag race was canceled.” It’s called a “competition reality show” and when you lose the competition aspect of it, it simply turns into a 💩show. I personally laugh when a person says “you can’t say that because it’s disrespectful to the winner”. Well girl, as someone who prefers to deal in reality and the truth then so be it. The only people actually being disrespected are the other contestants. The one who “won” is being showered in unearned praise and drowning in job opportunities and the prizes from the show. It’s the same with UK vs the world. We all know that the winners of those seasons don’t look legitimate when compared to any other season. Yet for some reason people want to pretend by stating the truth you disrespect the “winner” when in reality the whole season is a shrine of disrespect to the queens who gave stellar performances and were with rewarded with nothing.
They wanted to send Soa home and the only one they were willing to risk losing that could beat her in a lip sync was Gala. At least that’s my thoughts as to why. It p*ssed me off!
I have never related to Alexis so hard than in the last seconds of the ends ceedit chat. Yes sir/miss/theys, walk ahead so I can get a little eyeful, respectfully. 😂😂😂
international queens are less able to compete in a second language. less confidence. it's a barrier. people with strong emotions lead the narrative. international fans have stronger emotions. they have less representation.
The true gag was that after all the mental health and therapy talk at the beginning, and the sponsor was SurfShark instead of BetterHelp. I audibly gasped
Alexis, you look SO CUTE with that HAIR and that OUTFIT I just am HARRUMPHING and GALLUMPHING because I don`t know WORDS anymore! The Mickey Mouse thing!? I want like a locket with instead of a picture it would be a little video of that that I can carry around in case I feel blue. That therapist oughta give you the lead role and if they don`t they are a DAMN FOOL! Thank you both for another funny and thoughtful recap of what is turning out to be a very weird and uncomfortable show!

Love seeing lara kroft and a young german yoddler girl collabing together
this has me in tears.
Lmfao best comment
We never knew we needed this collab …and still dont know
I'M SCREAMING!!!!
I read this before the intro finished and thought it said “a young German TODDLER girl” 😆 so imagine my surprise upon seeing Alexis’ look 😭💀
Global All Stars never disappoints in being ABSOLUTELY ROTTED
The fact that Alexis knows all the lyrics to “Minnie’s Yoo Hoo” makes me want to actually get out of bed today! ❤️
And Darby let her finish?!
True fact, the fish actually does all of Alexis's singing bits. This is just the first time they're allowed on camera.
I am SO happy Darby said what I’ve been thinking “this week should have been judged individually and LAST week should have been judged by groups” THANK YOU I can breathe now
Darby: Getting on medication is what?
me: FUNDAM
Darby: challenging
me: yes, yes... challening.... :(
Brunette Darby is a recession indicator
It’s so confusing to me when the judges say an outfit is “too much”. It’s drag, not Project Runway! It’s supposed to be over the top and campy.
especially if it's mad max inspired like i thought the whole point of that aesthetic is that it's purposely over the top???
Category on the reading challenge was language barrier
i forgot my playback was on 1.75x speed and the first two minutes of this sure was a journey.
I’m sorry but I’ve fallen for the edit and I really dislike kitty. First it’s the judges ignoring her terrible runways especially in this episode, they called Eva’s drag basic expecting her to bring global elevated drag which Kitty hasn’t done, the Ru girls trailer wasn’t even the best so when she made that comment rubbing it in that they were the winning team to the ESL queens I was like okay I’m done.

"I'm sure the therapist will sign you after that" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was legit waiting for this!!!
Honestly for me it was the comments that Kitty did in stage and then in untuck. Especially after that performance and outfit.
Yeah, it seems like she is shooting herself in the foot, especially in the eyes of the viewers...
I went from wanting Kitty to win on her original season to just .... not liking her. At. All. Like.... ma'am what happened?
Ru's love for kitty reminds me of her love for baga chipz - seems like she has this idea of what uk queens should be - bawdy, a bit mean and v unpolished, and I really hope people dont think this is what all uk queens are like!
Literally the one thing that's saving me with our UK representation in this series is 'it could be worse, at least it's not Baga.'
Hi Darby, Hi Alexis! You're both looking lovely today, thank you for the hard work + videos. I just wanted to share MHO today: Alexis, this HAIR + eyebrow combo is REALLY working for me. It gives very "Stockard Channing/Betty Rizzo goes to Bavaria." Have a lovely day
The outfit is giving Kaz Rowe too! Love it all
there is not once that I don't cackle at the low note on 'Did I Lollll'
I bet Darbys laptop nearly exploded getting the moving fish on the ep this week
The portrait of Darby when she was younger behind her is a nice touch
Let's do a Global All Stars where we shame the Global part by diminishing queens who are not native english speakers so we can make the native english speakers the final top 3
I identify spiritually to that fish
Fresh tilapia
Alexis busting out into a Mickey Mouse diddy right off the bat is CRAZY!!!🤣😂❤️
The Minnie Mouse song???!!!!! 💀💀💀💀😭
Thank you for your service of continuing to watch this series. I pretty much stopped but I am still curious what happened so I have been relying on your reviews for that.
Alexis hitting just right with that little ditty at the beginning!
Darby is a pro of keeping herself from laughing, tho i think i saw a micro-smirk 1:34
Fun fact: Nelly she chose the violin because it is a reference to Sailor Moon, Sailor Neptune is able to play the violin.
Seriously this could not have come out at a better time. THANK YOU FOR THE CONTENT.
Y'all brighten every day you upload thank you so much
Yes I did clap enthusiastically after Alexis’ song
28:03 Thank you for talking about the absolutely unhinged hate from the comments section toward Your Friend Kevin on Very Delta!! It felt so gross that people were bringing up Alexis's personal housing struggles to justify their weird beef against him being... someone they just don't like the personality of??

The frustration is real! Thanks for voicing that my divas!
The thing that irks me the most about the favoritism is this time especially the girls that won IMHO were #1 NOT the funniest group (I thought it was pirates) and #2 the ONLY group complete of native English speakers. All the other teams had people that spoke multiple languages or at least did not have English as their native primary language and they had to learn and act out a whole script and make it funny!!!!

And then for kitty to rub it in the other girls faces by saying “ohhh you did good but we did bettah” and saying Eva should give more when SHE WAS WEARING THATTTTTTT it just like Darby says becomes so fucking frustrating to watch as a viewer
Let’s talk about how good Alexis’ natural hair looks! Like it looks like a wig to me cause it’s so full and curly and pretty (and yes I’m jealous) ❤
Darby moved from Cancer ♋ to Leo ♌
New lore unlocked?!
Alexis looks so cute! And Darbys fingers look so dainty with those nails. Also these two are as entertaining as always ❤
Gurl.. I feel you on the payment thing. I've been chasing a magazine for over 4 months and they just told me that their CEO died and that payments are delayed because the board needs to sign them or something. I'm assuming my broke ass isn't getting paid.
I'm scared for the queens whose first languange is not English when snatch game comes.
If I'm not mistaken, Sophie's position in Slag Wars is being filled by Fantasia Royale Gaga from Dragula season 5. It won't be the same without Sophie, though
I needed this today, thank you ladies ❤
When Alexis finally gets paid from AARP, should we all like, celebrate or something lmao
Also yeah I saw those comments on very delta and was so confused, he seems super sweet!
10:01 the runway was brown, because I guess they knew by this point Global All Stars would be a big poopy, would be poo poo, caca 💩
Hahahahah ❣️
I challenge anyone to name a show that has more Diversely Hilarious content than IMHO. Go!
The myriad ways in which Darby and Alexis are funny are insane - I mean the Surfshark ads alone!
„Im excited its not a 100 degrees outside“ - I FEEL HEARD, I FEEL SEEN, THANK YOU ALEXIS!!!
"That's the quality of Cracker Barrel" lmaooo
Jessica Wild used that read in All Stars 8. "I never washed any of your stuff, but after I get out of here, I'm still not washin! it!'
I was distracted reading the comments, so imagine my surprise when this random lesbian started to sing
realized i went the whole episode just watching the fish
the fringe look alyssa is wearijg in the workroom is by brazilian designer fernando cozendey, almost all of his work is very campy and made out of lycra, betina polaroid’s promo and first ball look were made by him as well!
im so fucking happy that you gusy also love nehellenia. it PISSES ME OFF that people are trying to paint her badly ON THE SHOW. i want to like kitty but........ actually not just kitty they lwokey all gaslit her abt her feelings when IN THE EPISODE we see someone mention her for the bottom. she is so fucking talented and i dont wanna be that person but it felt like they all ganged up on the person who doesnt speak english as much as them
love to watch you guys while I’m douching
guys can we talk about the fact that, no other Queens on this season have a storyline then the Rugirls. Kitty, Alyssa and Kween.. Alyssa and Tessa "Mother Daughter" Kitty, Kween bullying Nehellany. that all! I think the top for our Kitty Alyssa, Kween and Nehellena (the underdog)
Auditioning for a therapist sounds insane. But also very on brand for miss bevels
Please let Alexis know I applauded her outstanding performance 👏
I love how you put episodes as you’re so used to doing multiple at once 😭
Yeah the “winner” of this season is illegitimate in my eyes. It’s rigged and the favoritism is gross. 22:30 It isn’t disrespectful to call it out.

YES DARBY I’m also very annoyed whenever I see steampunk, can’t really explain it but it irritates me
I think Kween Kong looked like that in their movie referencing the Barbie movie intro where Margot Robbie wore a similar look and was huge
Watching this high in the shower as god intended
The Kelly clarkson moment from Alexis was so real and prescient.
alexis your mug is so stamped i love it and y'all are spot on with the reviews this season.
Love y’all SM ❤️🫶🏾
i can’t even explain how much i love Alexis’ singing !! ❤
The fish in the background 😂😂
I appreciate your candour about mental health and medications. Love relatable queens 🥰
I now come to this video to hear Alexis sing that. Then I proceed to watch the whole thing, love this.
Alexis sings Minnie’s Yoo Hoo better than Mickey himself.
They both really are like cartoon characters!!! ❤❤
Okay you sold me I’ll watch this before the episode
2 minutes in and it's already wild, i'm so locked in
A Boy Named Camera won Best Documentary at the 1977 Oscars, I think.
I absolutely revere your opinions and look forward to hearing them every week. Also you make me LAUGH
Aww Kevin 😂 We all have that one friend that covers their insecurities with muscles and snark. Leave him be lol
I did try to defend him over on that episode I was so shocked when I was watching that episode
The sudden turn into Alexis singing an old timey mickey mouse song really had my jaw dropped
Omg even the surfshark add is fun to watch 😂😂😂
So proud of my girlies and your mental health journeys ❤️❤️❤️
DORINDA CLIP! that mickey mouse song bit IMMEDIATELY followed by Darbys comment please
It’s insane to me how the judges pick and choose when the runways matter like they don’t even hide it and it comes off as so obvious and biased
I've fully given up on this series of Drag Race. It's definitely rigged towards the three Ru judged girls.
They wanted to send Soa home and the only one they were willing to risk losing that could beat her in a lip sync was Gala. At least that’s my thoughts as to why. It p*ssed me off!
I’m glad Alexis’ new laugh has stuck ❤
25:25 I agree with Alexis, I'm going to keep watching because I love all the girlies ❣️ and also I have watched all the international franchises!
I have never related to Alexis so hard than in the last seconds of the ends ceedit chat.
Yes sir/miss/theys, walk ahead so I can get a little eyeful, respectfully. 😂😂😂
It was great to hear Alexis sing your new theme song🌈❤️
Alexis! You're singing voice is even lovelier than usual today. ❤😊
international queens are less able to compete in a second language. less confidence. it's a barrier.
people with strong emotions lead the narrative. international fans have stronger emotions. they have less representation.
great audition hope she books ❤
love these looks
I'm sorry did you not get the Barbie spoof theme? Queen Kong is dressed as a dinosaur Barbie in the trailer.
Is Kitty performing that well in the challenges though? Really?
9:36 : A Freudian slit . Official diagnosis .
Just 7 minutes ago. Luv ya girls
Alexis's crease is so good today
I just love Darbys eye makeup today
The true gag was that after all the mental health and therapy talk at the beginning, and the sponsor was SurfShark instead of BetterHelp. I audibly gasped
at least surfshark is more reliable😂😂
Alexis, you look SO CUTE with that HAIR and that OUTFIT I just am HARRUMPHING and GALLUMPHING because I don`t know WORDS anymore! The Mickey Mouse thing!? I want like a locket with instead of a picture it would be a little video of that that I can carry around in case I feel blue. That therapist oughta give you the lead role and if they don`t they are a DAMN FOOL! Thank you both for another funny and thoughtful recap of what is turning out to be a very weird and uncomfortable show!
YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT makes a triumphant return.
Wait okay both of these fits slay
