Alaska birthed a black baby on the mainstage. Can we just talk about this for a second? This SHOW!!!
The risk is in doing somebody that few people in the world know better than Ru. If it misses, it misses big. If it lands, it lands big.
This is pretty astute—she's even getting the Juju edit: no challenge wins, yet seems destined for top three (and legend status).
Octavia in her bedroom remarking on Paulina's versatility.
Ru tends to get rid of super boring queens like Vivienne (think Princess or Madame LaQueer) off the show before Snatch Game even comes around. It's not good news for Vivienne. Or Honey.
Could that be the show's strategy as well, though? To give Alaska her own story (early struggle, underdog status) that is utterly distinct from Sharon's win?
If you don't think Lil Poundcake was funny, then I just don't know!
I guess I'm in the minority of folks who thought Alaska wasn't "disastrous." Insanely entertaining next to this batch of humdrum Honeys. Milan missing the mark on her Janelle Monae by rocking an unfitted suit was a far bigger crime than Alaska *intentionally* riffing on Pee Wee (who himself was an intentionally…
For somebody who (accurately) calls out a shitstarter, Honey spends most of her time reading and casting shade. Maybe it's her edit, but she seems a little too fond of the stank face.
Addendum: Serena ALSO realized this. But the results were, um…
The Detox and Alaska critique was where she lost me. They were the only two people who realized that Ru never told them to reenact the blocking, and that this opened up the doors to rewrite history a little. That's not taking something for granted—that's creative and risky. (And where else are you supposed to go but…
Right. (As if Jujubee would ever let her face just SIT there like that!)
I can't seem to get anything from Ivy. I hope her personality comes out to play a little more, though clearly her skills alone could get her to top 6.
Truly, is there any other way to pronounce "Phi Phi O'Haaaaaarrrrraaaaaaaaa" now? Kudos to Alaska on a quotable episode.
"She resembled a prom goer that got dragged through a gutter with 'fresh sex' (messy) hair."
The horse mask was definitely a joke on her own face. It's a joke she makes frequently.
"I also found it really annoying how everyone kept saying that Alaska was
too similar to Sharon. (In Untucked, they even thought she was gonna
get sent home for it!) Really? Their styles are not that similar. Sharon
goes for shock value, and she revels in the macabre. Alaska Thunderfuck
is a deconstruction of beauty…
