    To this day, I’m still not sure what they wanted to do with Tina. For someone from the winner circle, you’d expect them to highlight her in the challenges a lot and make her look like a strong competitor. But instead they keep her safe for the first half of the season, then absolutely rob her in the rusical where she had no business being low, then they throw Denali, a queen with a win, under the bus in order to save her, just to eliminate her the very next week when she didn’t even deserve to be in the bottom.

      I know a lot of people divide that season by winners/losers circles, but there was a very clear middle group of winners they didn’t care about (LaLa, Tina, and Elliott)

      @@RuPaulsDragRaceRejudgedEliott wasn’t really part of the winner circle since she lost the premiere lip sync. As for Lala, I don’t think they didn’t care about her, it’s just that she was a real mess on season 13 and wasn’t as polished as we now know her to be.

      @@newsnipecat8337 they wanted her and denali to have the showmance thing like with how vanjie and brooke were on S11, but Rose and Denali were just clearly good friends and rose was not giving as much storyline for it and it ended up with her being a strong player making top 4 and denali being robbed because of someone else. Both Queens I feel like have a story they can bring back on all stars but more denali than rose as of right now.

    I feel like Marcia x3 is a solid example of the curse. The edit seemed to me like it was setting up for a double save after the boss b lip sync, and then not getting one seemed odd. Then seeing the rusical next ep made a lot more sense, they wanted her out because she didn’t have a major storyline and likely would’ve done very well. Although I don’t think she did as good in the competition, being safe for like ten episodes in a row LOL

    Yeah. The 7th place curse was different in older seasons: It's mostly where early lip sync assassins or queens who are coasting in the challenges went home. It's also sometimes unlucky:
    - Early Lipsync Assassins Finally Beaten: Akashia, Sahara, Delta Work, TKB, Vixen
    - Coasting in the Challenges: Ivy, Miss Fame, Robbie
    - Unlucky Queens: Willam, Valentina

    Something about Mhiya is that at that point of the competition she was out of steam.

    I truly do believe the leak of the supposed person who used to work with drag race, because of what they said. Which was that normally the producers have an idea of what they want their final 6 to be, and let them hash it out to the end. So, it makes sense why they are always taken at 7th.

      Was the episode/challenge fair though? The stand up challenge is imo one of the hardest on drag race and they made it much more difficult for one queen specifically. This is such speculation but what if they switched the order of the challenges so the stand up would get Marcia out. The only evidence I have is the odd number of queens but that could just be for the twist or whatever. It's also debunked because of the guest judge but it's a nice what if
