The Riggory of Drag Race Season 9

- RuPaul's Drag Race Season 9....the first season of the VH1 era, with giant shoes to fill after the roaring success of All Stars 2. It came in with a bang, and to this day we're still talking about some of its most iconic moments. Valentina's Maskgate and not knowing the words to Greedy, Charlie Hides "lip syncing" to "I Wanna Go," Sasha's rose petal reveal in the finale which knocked frontrunner Shea Coulee out of the running. So many fights from Aja reading Valentina, Nina and Shea's frenemy relationship, and the long-standing rivalry between Trinity and Eureka. This season is filled with so many iconic moments, and we're going to discuss them all.
But just how rigged is Season 9? It doesn't come up in the discussions about the most rigged seasons, but it definitely has some moments we can dissect and talk about, which is exactly what we're going to do today. We're going to go episode by episode and talk about every challenge, lip sync, and runway we can to try and figure out the mystery of the riggory of Season 9. Now let's solve this mystery.
Let me know in the comments below what you think the most rigged moment of the season was!

People tend to forget Trinity and Peppermint's alliance before the Finale. They thought there's no way either of them could win against Shea or Sasha. So they decided if they get a chance to pick their opponent for their lipsyncs they will choose each other so that Shea and Sasha would have to go against each other giving either Peppermint or Trinity a better chance at winning.
So that was also a key factor in the downfall of Shea.
I love how it took production AND strategy to make Shea lose
@@iandean1112 nah
Shea chose to lose….but wait….didn’t they win AS5🤔🤷♂️🙄
@@wbtothey Shea had recently lost her dad, she was obviously not fully focused on winning
@@wbtothey nobody like shea choses to lose bro
@@user-mz2ne4yh2t nothing she could’ve done woulda helped against sasha tbh
This season wouldn’t be rigged if Nina was Blac Chyna
I- listen- I- 😭☠️☠️
Exactly
I mean, she wears the body ody, like, what else do you even need. She absolutely deserved that role
I agree even if it's a joke lol
@@jesusaceves3893 i agree
Season 9 had one of the strongest casts ever. I mean, the fact that 3 queens out of the top 4 have a crown now speaks volumes.
Right! I've always said that! 3 out of that top 4 are WINNERS Now!
peppermint doesn't have one only because she didn't come back yet
@@ktgd2v She won life already. The crown would just be a nice touch :)
@@ktgd2v the only challenge I'd say pep really flopped was Snatch Game, she did fine in the ball but it's just that the others did better. I'm sure with where pep is now she can redeem her ep4 look😭
Right and two of them almost had 2 crowns 🥵
When the Valentina Stan’s told Alexis she should have volunteered herself to go home for Valentina when she was safe always sends me
I cant believe season 9 was called "old season". I remember it just like yesterday 😭
It was only 5yrs ago 🤣 I don't get calling it old at all lol.
I think because All Stars began airing every year after this season and many of the international spin-offs started shortly after. It's been 5 years but probably around 20 seasons.
I feel like anything pre-season 10 is considered "old" now lol
Girl I started watching the show 2 years ago and it's so weird for me to think that I was 10 years old when S9 aired 💀
it's legit when i started watching the show- i forgot that i was seriously in elementary school
the fact that they brought back the reunion just for this season and it was the best decision ever
I have never had such a visceral reaction to a word as when I heard “produssy”
I had to turn off the video for a sec 🤣🤣🤣
I double took and had to pause until the cringe wore off.....
i thought it was just me. 🤣🤣
The reason why Nina’s treatment reads bad is because you see queens like Farrah whine and they don’t get shut down in the same way.
I think the issue with this season isn’t that there wasn’t a solo challenge win Sasha was robbed of. It’s the fact that there were so many where it was neck-and-neck between Sasha and someone else, and the producer’s always chose to give it to someone else because they saw them as more winner potential or because it had a better storyline. Sasha could’ve won a lot of other solo challenges over the season, but I think the producers never really gave her one because they never really expected her to do *that* in the finale.
I feel like she should’ve won the ball tbh but I agree with what you’re saying. SUCH a strong cast. One of my top 3 favourite seasons 💗
@@kristenbortignon5702makeover was much closer call than ball challenge tbh, Shea absolutely devoured the ball
When you said that Farrah won the reunion, I would love a video about 'who are the top and bottom 3 on the reunion'.
I’d think top 3 (for me) would be:
1) Tatianna (S2)
2) Farrah (S9)
3) Tammy (S1) or Asia (S10)
From Dragula is Koco Caine
Being Peppermint and leaving S9 filming not knowing if you'll be asked back for the finale must've been weird AF 😅
Which meant no matter what she did in that top 2… she was not winning.
@@KentrellBraxton She was coming for that 2nd place prize though lmao
@@juniper665 You are absolutely correct. Like the old cliché goes, this is a competition, and Peppermint strategized and allied herself to make it to that Runner Up spot. She earned that 2nd Place.
i cracked when you said "nudge nudge, wink wink" on Jaymes being on all stars 8 but just blatantly saying Alexis is on it 😭
HAHAH FR
Nina’s Mary j Blige going out for milk in Chicago in the middle of winter runway is just the most mama lewk of the season
However it was another coat slapped over a body suit or panty set.
A sentence that is truly incomprehensible for any straight guy
@@UA-camgavemyhandletosomeone , which is what most poor drag queens wear.
Let's not reinforce the classism of the judging panel ("No @#$ing H&M!").
Not every queen is going to have the budget or social connections to pull out multiple couture looks.
Don't denigrate Nina's runways when her makeup skills and creativity and humor are unique, and something that can't be bought or borrowed.
She looked so mother
@@UA-camgavemyhandletosomeone ppl pike u fucked up drag
THANK YOU for the Kesha rep. I am a Kesha stan and the audacity that we've had NO Kesha songs on drag race is not it!
Even with all the he who will not be named drama going on… cannibal was always hers to use? Would’ve been a much better lipsync choice
They could use Raisin Hell or Woman. Praying could be great. So many amazing songs.
Unsure about the timeline here- could be because she didn’t want them to use the songs and have her former producer profit from it?
I agree that either Trinity or Sasha could have won the makeover challenge but the win for Sasha would probably make her ultimate win feel more earned. I actually rooted for Sasha the entire season and she’s my favorite queen ever, but a lot of people still invalidate her win
Sasha's boring and tbh gives entitlement vibes but that creative talent can't be denied.
I'm having the worst week at work and hearing you say "they put their entire produssy into this season" revived me
S9 being considered an older season makes me feel so old omg 😭😭😭
imo everything after 7 is a new season
I genuinely quote “I’m confused, Peppermint’s confused, we’re all fucking confused” at least once a day
That and “why y’all actin brand new?!” are my favorite quotes of the season
i have sent the “WHY YALL ACTIN BRAND NEW” gif multiple times to people, whether they get the reference or not
Charlie hasn't remained in the Drag Race canon?
Her name is short hand for girls giving us nothing in lipsyncs! She's the reason the LSftC exists! "Charlie come on!"
Slay
That’s true, I do say “CHARLIE LETS GO” often, but unfortunately I’m not sure most viewers know what she’s actually up to these days 😭
I always say, “ Do something Charlie.”
it's the Lipsync for the Charlie atp
The nerve of saying that Eureka might've had the worst look of the series when Lala Ri's bag ball look exists 😂
But lala's bag look took on a life of its own ! Eureka's was.... Interesting
NO HATE TOWARDS EUREKA BTW
I understand why the producers brought Cynthia back. However, seeing as she didn't do so well on both seasons 8 & 9, I think it was kinda a waste to have her return
Cynthia had cancer so they brought her back since they likely had it during season 8
Also (not sure if they discussed this is the video, haven't gotten there yet) but I wonder if Cynthia's ties to Pulse night club played a part in her return as well. It gave producers a very real opportunity to discuss on air a perspective from someone who was literally supposed to be there that night. She basically cheated death twice that year. She was beloved on top of everything.
I don’t think they wanted to bring back an actual contender to win, and honestly Cynthia did deserve a second shot after her bad experience in season 8
@@ismayonnaiseaninstrument3911 she’s unfortunately sick again, but she’s so strong and will likely overcome it. And with that, I wouldn’t be shocked to see her return for one last run on All Stars, she’s the most polished she’s been and much more experienced than she already was. I think one more time could be her shining moment for a great season
@@JJ-kd5mx Praying for Mz Coo Coo. Love you !!
DAMN I NEVER THOUGHT I’D SEE THE DAY😭 So glad you’re continuing this series, can’t wait for season 7 aka the most rigged season imo lol
that would be s11 or 13 100%
I hope your not saying that because of
Trixie 🤮 katya 🤮😂😂😂
@@r3drift negativity is a choice
@@johnnybaxter8078 admittedly haven’t rewatched those seasons in a while, so could be that they’re just as rigged idk. But the reason why season 7 always stuck out to me is because not only was it incredibly rigged, but the rigging was also SO obvious. It’s like they didn’t even try to hide it. I was literally a child when that season aired and so I still tended to get fooled by reality tv at the time, but during this season even my naive little self noticed that it was rigged as hell. Lol.
@@r3drift no actually. The biggest examples of riggory in that season are pearl and max imo. But what’s your problem with katya and trixie? Lmao
I think part of the makeover is also getting your makeover partner so comfortable that they actually develop their own drag character a bit, like Wintergreen, or Miss Crumbs.
Miz Cookie was Cracker's makeover, Miz Crumbs was her "evil twin" from that awful challenge the next episode
Miz Cookie was one of my absolute favorites, Chester seemed to really embrace it in a way that was enjoyable to witness.
I honestly was so disappointed in Charlie during that lip sync because this is also the episode where she opened up about living during the AIDS crisis and gets very emotional about burying her friends and having survivors guilt. I empathized with her and I thought she could at least stay another episode, but oh my god when the lip sync happened I was like Cynthia in the background “CHARLIE LET’S GO!”
apparently farrah didn’t do her alejandro reveal because the audio people told her that they couldn’t fit her mic in if she took the robe off but i could be wrong
season 9 really is THAT GIRL - thank you for allowing me to relive my fav season once again
Alexis Michelle not getting her RUdemption in All Stars 8 was hilarious 😭 I feel like the fandom hates her more
After all this time Drag detective validated Aja's feelings about Valentina in the princess ball XD
Well Valentina does look like Linda Evangelista...
@@dylannolastname730 shes also perfect and beautiful and looks like a model
@@moonlightbae6143 And she did stone those tights.
And oh, she’s also smiling!
And she could walk out there in a fucking diaper!
Kimora’s “you didn’t say JK tho” was iconic I still quote it today she would not be in the bottom
"one of the worst rusicals" im sorry WHAT?? the actual music in this one is so catchy and a decent amount of the girls did well... peppermint, sasha and trinity were great and alexis and shea were ICONIC
The kardashian roles didn't allow for distinct big personality. Like u listed all the non kardashians lol. And they didn't sing live. Which wouldnt be a large negative if it was a great rusical like herstory of the world with distinct characters. My favourite rusicals are shade. Herstory. Madonna. Cher. Big top etc.
I agree with you on the music, the songs were written very well and were very catchy, but the production value for the musical was very low and the main Kardashians felt like secondary characters rather than the stars, I blame casting :P haha
It’s one of the most popular rusicals. Idk what people are talking about
honestly whenever i want to show someone drag race i will show them season 9. To me its one of the best traditional seasons in the entire series. the cast is great, the first episode has gaga. some of the most iconic eliminations, no intense distracting drama, the more serious moments like the pulse convo were great and well navigated. the reunion had the hot drama and the finale was satisfying.
NOT THE PRODUSSY
Came here to comment this
Before I watch this, I’m hoping there’s a lot of Nina content, because she did a lot better than fans seem to like to remember, and her drag was definitely the most ignored of the season
I honestly don’t enjoy this season and a big reason is because of the constant bullying these queens did to Nina
i just rewatched the season and nina was edited like a filler queen, she was barely in the episodes and it made me very upset because her talent is so amazing
@@ev1802 yeah, there’s gonna be a collegiate level course on how the queens all dogpiled on Nina as the season went on because her mental health wasn’t as important to them as they were making it seem when they were speaking to her. It was quite literally disgusting to watch them all gang up on her during the season and also at the reunion for essentially being down on herself. There’s such a huge difference between attacking somebody for being constantly negative and attacking somebody for their mental illness which *CLEARLY* prevents them from seeing the positives. Knowing that the reunion was after Shea lost makes it super weird that she would carry on negative energy by attacking a mentally ill sister for as much as she did, also Sasha. I hate how the girls just gave up on her, I know it wasn’t their job to make her feel better but that doesn’t mean y’all have to make her feel WORSE like idc
@@pusslicious it’s weird!! bcuz her drag was in the top 3 of damn near every single episode she was in! I think the show wanted a winner like Nina up until the Rusical, and then they knew they had a probable villain, and stoked the coals from them on. I think if Nina ever came back on all stars that she would be easy top 4 material
@@sondheimravel exactly this!, Nina has been so open with her depression and there’s a clip in an untucked episode of Shea saying she’s battled the same demons Nina has and she’s gotten over it. It just looks very dismissive
9021-HO really is about as good as a drag race acting challenge can be. I regularly forget who actually took the win because Trinity, Shea and Valentina are all such powerhouses. Kudos to Farah too.
season 9 is my comfort season and one of my favorites but this video made me realize how objectively amazing it is
As a former competitive cheerleader i must admit that i was quite terrified when i saw the cheer challenge and at the level of performance they were expected to give. No matter how good at splits and tumbles and death drops you are, cheerleading is not just gymnastic and requires a high level of control over entirely different sets of muscles and coordination than what ''ordinary'' stunts do. Had they, as you said, toned it down a bit to a more beginner level - which would've still been amazing - i think they would've been able to perform a lot better and be more into it than what they did. They still delivered, but obviously at a high cost.
People seem to forget the cheerleading consistently has some of, if not the, highest percentages of injuries in any sport. It is incredibly physical and unbelievably dangerous and production seriously expected THAT MUCH out of them while only giving them a few days to practice. It's a wonder no one was left permanently disabled or worse
I will never get over Wintergreen on All Stars quoting Kennedy Davenport’s crystalized glamazon speech! She is so fking funny without even trying
its insane that season 9 is considered an old season now
45:01 *_I'M ALSO FURIOUS_** THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A KE$HA LIPSYNC WHEN **_SHE 👏 WAS 👏 THE 👏 DAMN 👏 GUEST 👏 JUDGE!?!?!_*
I remember when meet the queens first came out and everyone was commenting on how Trinity Taylor was busted and unpolished. Fast forward to now, she’s now known as one of the most talented and polished drag queens to ever be on the show EVER!! 😊
At first I thought Trinity was gonna be mean, but by the end of the first episode I started loving her and now I'm happy that she blocks ppl when they try messing with her? I recall seeing a comment where some lady thought Trinity was rude for blocking her because SHE said something disrespectful to Trinity? Fans being able to connect with their favorite queens is cool, but when the toxic ones verbally attack the queens, I don't think it's such a good thing?
This is perhaps one of the only seasons I can rewatch over and over and not get tired of.
Amazing video !
“Alexis got a lot of hate on this season, and I hope her next showing changes that” 💀💀💀💀
THAT didn't happen!! 🤣🤣🤣
In my mind I only consider the “older” seasons to be 1-6 😭
I wouldn’t even include 5 and 6 in ‘older’ tbh. For me, it goes:
- Older seasons: 1-4
- Middle seasons: 5-7
- Kinda new: 8-10
- Newer seasons: 11-13
- Current age: 14-15
Though admittedly it doesn’t really make sense with the numbers now haha. I liked the “eras of drag race” video that one of the drag race channels did (it might have been this channel). It kinda talks about this
1-8 for me but 1-5 is older yk
L M A O the placements for the reunion KILLED me 😂😂😂
Not you saying Eureka’s faux fur look was one of the worst of the season when you have Cynthia there lmao.
Talking about Nina ‘whining’ when clearly she was struggling with her mental health is a bit shady.
Calling out the bs or (as you said) struggling with mental health is somehow whining like a baby. I can't take this video seriously
Keep in mind the person who made this video stans Shea to the core
I mean it's true tho, Nina annoyed tf out of me in the reunion. She's saying she "heard" the queens were backstabbing her and when asked who she never wants to speak then goes to IG and mention every crevices of the cast. She's just an insecure queen, who can't take confrontations because she can never take the truth.
@@corrine1310 I mean they treated her like trash so why would she want to talk with them?
Holy shit holy shit I’m at work but I’ll watch later. All I know is Nina betta be Blac Chyna
I remember when i watched this season thinking sasha was the frontrunner going into the finale then later on when i engaged with the fanbase realising people didnt agree and being shook
The deciding factor between Sasha and Trinity in the make over was the tucking. If a guest tucks and its a big deal they always get bonus points
That clip of Jaymes in the performance challenge. Like Jaynes I’m rolling 😂😂😂
Excited to see her comeback
YESSSSSS SEASON 9!!!!! (Can't wait for season 8 coming December 2024)
💀
You’re foul 😂😂
by the time he does s8, 2 all winners s2 and s3 have concluded by then
My Valentina obsession has re-emerged
Would love if you do the riggory of season 3 cause that season was RIGG
Was it ? I thought it was mostly fair but I think the older seasons are pretty much all fair
@@Mendejito It was definitely especially for Yara and Alexis
@@sailorecume damn I didn’t think so, Yara coulda had more wins and then Alexis was thrown in the bottom everytime she did bad
@@Mendejito she didn’t deserve to be in the bottom for the cake challenge, she should have won over raja for the rupaul a palooza. Yara should have won over Raja for the cake challenge. Sad actually that Manilla and Raja got extra time for the money ball and not alexis and yara.
@@sailorecume oh Idk I always go back and forth on her cheesecake look cause I didn’t hate it tbh. And 100% Yara shoulda won the cake challenge but I also think Raja shoulda won the money ball just for her last look alone but that’s just me cause I didn’t love Manilas last look
Fully disagree, "Haha jk" is to me the most iconic line of this reunion 😭😭😭
👏 Justice 👏 for 👏 Nina 👏 Bonina 👏 Brown 👏

@@jczbas girl*
Love this! While we might disagree on what some of the rigging or who should've won certain challenges, the way you approached this was very nice. Full of love for the queens, and also with cleverly placed comments here and there. Don't you dare think the "produssy" went unnoticed. lol
I was also introduced to Peppermint back in 2010 because of the Telephone parody way before I knew about the show. 😍🤘🏻
The parallels to the as7 finale
Shea ended up losing to someone w a red dress + orange wig and placed 3rd/4th
And Trinity losing to Bob's drag family and placing 3rd/4th
I've always felt this season was so interesting with the sort of anti-social media sentiment felt throughout. The queens with more alternative/tradition, organic styles of drag mangaged to make it far and be rewarded while the social media darlings and glamourous queens were kinda ripped to shreds by the judges. Interesting route to go since they went the complete opposite the very next season imo.
Also the idea of casting some of the best queens on Drag Race* and some of the worst queens ON DRAG RACE* in the same season is such a wild ride lmao. Everyone here is iconic for different reasons.
If Eureka didn’t get injured, production 100% would’ve pushed for a lip sync between her & Trinity. I wonder who would win? 🤔
My season 9 hot take is that the Greedy lip sync is a bit overdramatised in the sense that Valentina would go home anyway if even she came out the womb knowing the lyrics to that song and having recited them to the writers of the song herself. Nina was doing great in that lip sync mask gate or not.
Also, as a huge Kesha fan especially at the time of airing, I was bummed a Kesha song was not chosen (C'mon and Your Love Is My Drug are literally begging to be lip sync songs), but I never expected them to actually go through with it at the time. The filming of season 9 must have been less than a year before the first trial for her lawsuit against Dr Luke took place and the FreeKesha hashtag took over social media for a moment. Given that the state of her career was in limbo at the time due to the fact that Dr Luke was blocking Kesha from releasing anything and receiving royalties from the moment the lawsuit was filed in 2014, it would be a punch in the face to have her on the show, while also putting money in the hands of her abuser
I can’t believe I didn’t think about how 3 of the top 4 have won crowns. I’d love for Peppermint to come back and win. That would be iconic
Honestly this season is the most iconic in so many ways. This video really makes me want to rewatch it, because I haven't seen it in a long time, but there are too many seasons now, I don't have time for rewatches 💀
Anyway, I can't wait for the reunion video and your placements feel correct 💅🏽
This series is amazing and I LOVE these videos. So excited you did season 9! Fingers crossed for season 7 🤞🏻
The amout of JOY I felt when I saw this video!! ✨ my favorite season
Farrah is the only person I've ever encountered who can whine but make it charming and adorable lol
WAIT REALLY AM I DREAMING I THOUGHT THIS WAS NEVER COMING OUT 🎉
I just realized I remember it as Alexis winning the rusical, her performance was the one that stuck with me
Thank you for this fair assessment of a great old season (me feeling like Methuselah at 34 watching this)
I always get so excited for your uploads. There aren't many youtube channels i religiously watch, but you're one of the few. Keep up the amazing work you do
I think Nina/Pierre knows that we think Nina is a STAR! Their downfall was sad to watch. However their rise again is gonna be great to see. We NEED a Nina Bo’Nina Brown top 4 verse frfr!!!
brings me so much joy any time I see you've posted a longer a video ^-^
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE SEASON 10!! Love ur videos dwoll ♥️
You say that Aja was edited as spoiled, but idk, so many moments she does something spoiled or comes for someone, and then she's shown to have recognized that she messes up and gets on screen chances to fix the problem and apologize. That's what made me stan her this season tbh.
This video just shows how truly iconic season 9 was. Almost every episode has an iconic moment or storyline, and ad you said this season has the best top 4, proven by all the crowns. Season 9, 6, and 5, will never be topped
Hearing the first season I watched live called an older season snatched my wig
I’m so happy you’re doing this 😭 I LOVE these vids and I thought I was gonna have to wait like another year to get one
Definitely my fav riggory of episode, it's so good to watch.
I am waiting patiently for any sezon 9 related videos, as you said one of the best cast ever !!!
Sherry Vine was also my first introduction is Pep back in the day, and it’s exciting to know other people felt the same joy I did when I saw her in the cast
yayy season 9 is my fave season because the cast is just stellar, along with s6 and s12 cast, everyone is just so likable to me. but also s9 is my fave mainly because sasha is my fave rpdr queen lol. would love to see her on another all winners season but i highly doubt it 🥲
Nina wasnt crazy for thinking people were out to get her, it’s OBVIOUS she was perfect for Blac Chyna, and they only took it away from her for drama. And like, it’s a given stuff like that will happen on a reality tv show, so i dont think she shouldve been shocked, but it’s disingenuous to say they werent fucking with her
The love for Sasha at the end was amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
maybe a bit off topic but i'm pretty sure the reason we didn't get a kesha song for the Shea vs Nina lipsync is because of the messy legal thing she had going with Dr. Luke. I don't think she could sell those rights at the time and if she could, it would've gone to Dr. Luke so yeah
Not VH1 and them stepping up that ‘PRODUSSY’ henny! LOL! I have died, been resurrected and died again! 😂
People who didn’t have LogoTV say this was their first season and it’s a good first VH1 season that really elevated the show but I do miss the simpler times from Logo where we got our fav winners like Jinkx & Bianca
This season also has just about one of each challenge in the franchise except for: talent show, girl group, and the fairy tale princess challenge could also be considered the “sewing” challenge but it’s a design. They’re lucky they got this instead of the drag on a dime challenge.
Imagine not suffering through AS1 in real time
ok i love this series!!!
please do season 3&7
“She looks good.”
Girl I know you lying 😂😂😂
Not UA-cam showing an ad for the wicked musical straight after you talked about the roast. So shady
omg been waiting for this! you should do a "what if season 9 had a elimination in the first episode"
Tbh I was worried when Nina opened up she was isolated from the drag community in her hometown. This is because I knew production will used it for the self saboteur storyline.
Haha omg not me watching this video today and you talking about jaymes coming back and then they revealed the next cast of all stars today featuring exactly this queen! Edit: and right after we see Alexis. Also we have kandy muse. I’ve been binging your riggory playlist today to know what’s going on with the different seasons and so funny how so many of those queens that I’ve seen today are back for this all stars!
Omg season 9 is so iconic
a perfect video to cheer me up upon the news of our sweet Cherry today. so happy this is out ❤
❤🍒❤️
@@adarosen4329 ❤️🍒❤️
Wait what happened
@@elizabethjohnson6386 Cherry Valentine from Drag Race UK has died. we don’t know how, but the whole fandom woke up crying :(
still believe sasha should’ve won more challenges, ep 1 & the roast, ball & the makeover challenge are all questionable & would have made her look better going into the final 4, still deserved to win
omg my tweet made it onto a drag detective video this made my whole life
21:45 agreed. Her 'Emotions" lipsync is second place for me, the hankey toss is burned into my memory.
I think your forgetting they was also judged on their sidekick and concept in the princess episode not really as much the outfit they designed. Hence why Valentina was in the top as she had one of the best side kicks and she looked great
Sasha DESERVED this crown!
Fun fact about Valentina- don’t know how true this is but I heard someone say that before going on drag race she won a Dragula Pageant!
Confirmed by the Boulets themselves!
I know you love Valentina but she wasn’t new to drag. She had been doing it for years and there’s tonnes of photos of her in drag years before drag race. The reason she looked polished is because she was.
