When Acid Betty, kicked off the show for no good reason except a terrible Nancy Grace, comes across with more humility, grace, intelligence and dignity - with a very good take on Madonna that all the other queens fucked up royally, including Bob's obscure reference - it tells you something.Īnd I thought this season was to be different. And if a Britney imitator can't do a good Britney - and is coming across like a lobotomized Phi Phi, who needs her? Ugh. Thorgy tries and tries, but the pop-eye-mouth-gape "enthusiasm" is wearing, and her Michael Jackson was terrible. Robbie is not Drag Race caliber and can't do makeup, either. Chi Chi is okay but so relentlessly street it's distracting, and she can't show she can do makeup. Naomi is shallow and repetitive, and can't dance. Kim Chi's amateur-hour approach to everything but her static looks is tiring. Bob came across like a show-boating never-shut-it ego trip. The Snatch Game episode was the season deal killer for me. She looked good in the bonnet w/ the dreds. To that end, Naomi should've just done Whoopi. He should've switched to Whoopi if he wanted to switch. The Vogue editor too? WTF? Bob did well, but the switch was abrupt and Carol Channing was owned by Pandora.
I love the Snatch Game, and I was totally underwhelmed.
Tatiana did a much better Britney (link below). No chewing gum, totally the wrong voice, no inside Britney humor. Aside from the hair shaking & having Britney makeup, there was nothing there. I thought the Madonna kimono-lingerie looked ridiculous.ĭerrick was a 2/10 for Britney, which was a total let down compared to Chad's Cher who was a 15/10 (extra points for 3 outfits within one scene). She is another loud, crazy, over the top personality that he played as a mute. I can't even remember who Naomi did.oh I looked it up. Why on earth would Acid Betty do Nancy Grace - and do it so badly? Didn't he rehearse something at home & get feedback? That was such a bad choice. Carson did a better job in 5 seconds, totally impromptu. Some y'all are asking for the unfairness in judging that the show has been guilty of before. Top 3 guaranteed, with Bob and it begins to look like Kim Chi? Season 8. Chi Chi remains my favorite but she doesn't have the polish to win. She was smart enough to know which Madonna inspired image he could pull off. As one of the models said, " I didn't know there was such a thing as leg pads." Unclockable on Bob. Bob's biggest drawback is that he looks like a MAN in drag but he sure pulled off the boy scout booty Madonna look perfectly. Bianca was more bitchy fun and less strident, but just as confident. There are better on the runway, more likable and much prettier bitches, but BOB has the talent and professonalism to make it far beyond Drag Race if he wants to. She's fun now, but still not inventive.īob is like Bianca Del Rio in that he is a clear all round winner. Trixie was nothing special on the show at all. Katya was hilarious and likeable and Kennedy was good drag and a great performer, but both were sacrificed in questionable eliminations. Naomi is still better than Pearl in lingerie drag and lip syncing. If Ginger Minj was so great, why didn't she win? She had terrible runway looks and that does matter. It was a crap episode but these are still better contestants than those of season 7. Robbie and Derrick and Kim Chi can go next. I hope that both Chi Chi and Naomi stay out of the bottom two for awhile. Acid Betty had a great runway look, as did Bob, Robbie and Chi Chi. How did they acknowledge there were so many iconic Madonna looks and then HALF OF THEM did a kimono Madonna ? Jeez. Why didn't Naomi switch back to Whoopie as Shug Avery as soon as she knew Bob wasn't doing Sister Act Whoopi ? Bad move. Robbie was terrible, Naomi was terrible, they overpraised Thorgy and Derrick. Acid Betty was unfunny and unrecognizable as Nancy Grace (Carson did Nancy's voice better than AB). THIS Snatch Game wasn't very good at all.
Yes, Acid Betty did sashay away, but she DID try to win the LSFYL and she was surprisingly gracious in her exit (beside her 'Snatch Game Sucks' commentary. Soooooooooooooooooo glad the spoilers weren't accurate.
