If someone uses me, my work, my talents, to justify harassment or threats toward someone else, it's in my name and I am responsible for correcting it. And I think it speaks very poorly of Valentina that she's willing to accept the praise and fame that come with her platform but not the responsibility that comes with

If this were ONE OR TWO or ten or fifty comments, sure. These have been hundreds of them, it's a pattern. There is no way that Valentina did not hear about them. Other queens even told her about them, and she didn't do anything. She is responsible for her platform. To quote Mean Girls, there's two kind of evil people

Valentina is responsible for what happens on her platform. If you have a platform — and people are hurling violence at other people IN YOUR NAME — it's up to you to address that. It's about accountability, and she was holding Valentina accountable. I am glad Shea said what she said. I agree that Shea wasn't being

I still think Valentina is a fierce queen, regardless of her giving up on her lip synch, BUT if you have a platform on social media, you have a responsibility for said platform. It's so disappointing to me that she doesn't take responsibility for what is said. If you don't have the time to respond to individual

Everything was worth it to watch Peppermint lip synch and send Alexis home. And Pep looked good! I think Trinity, Shea, and Sasha all have the Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent that could win them the crown. I will say this. I don't remember the last time that a Top 3 has been THIS WELL ROUNDED. All three can be

Before this episode, I thought this competition was Shea's to lose. I love her aesthetic and her attitude but the messiness of her make over and for me what seemed like a lackluster lip synch, come on. I think Trinity and Sasha are both fierce, and at this point there is no front runner. If somebody wants that crown,

And it shows that sometimes supporting people struggling with mental illness isn't "fun and easy" but you know what, you've still got to support them. Like, I COMPLETELY agree with Shea and Sasha in Untucked that it's not their job to build up any of their fellow competitors. And I LOVE Shea, she's been my favorite

Also I feel like the idea that mental health struggles are supposed to be glamorous and charming is kinda f'd up. Like no, struggling with mental health can be a living nightmare. I get feeling that Nina's time on the show is up (I love her drag, but think her time on S9 has come), but I really don't like the idea of

On one hand, it seemed like Ru wanted to save Valentina so bad. Stopping the lip synch like that is unprecedented, giving Val a second chance. It would've been so easy to justify saving her over Nina, but Valentina just couldn't give Ru the material to work with to keep her. ON THE OTHER HAND, I'm reminded of S8 when

Untucked was just so sad to see Nina's self-consciousness bubble up once again, to possibly harm her friendship with Shea (although probably not in the long run). That girl loves Ms. Nina Bonina, and did NOT have to devote so much energy to support Nina. So it was painful to see Nina - in this moment of

I was REALLY hoping it would be a double elimination of Cynthia and Farrah. Love them both and think they can slay in their element, I just think their time in the competition has come to an end. At this point in the season, I don't love keeping around queens you know for sure are not going to win.
