RuPaul's Drag Race 11x6

1. Previously on RuPaul's Drag Race...

2. We are throwing a monster ball.

3. Shuga Cain.

4. This looks messy.

5. Ariel Versace.

6. There is nothing monstrous about this.

7. Brooke Lynn Hytes.

8. That was incredible.

9. Con-drag-ulations.

10. You are the winner of this week's challenge.

11. Shuga Cain, shantay you stay.

12. Ariel Versace, sashay away.

13. Nyes.

14. Jesus, y'all.

15. This is like the worst.

16. But the best, but the worst.

17. Miss Ariel just went home,

18. and I am feeling some type of way right now.

19. Ariel, we love you, Jersey.

20. Love you so much, Ariel.

21. We love you, girl.

22. I love you, Ariel.

23. I thought coming into this competition

24. that I was going to do so much better than I'm doing now.

25. Bitch, they read me to filth.

26. And it's like, it's frustrating.

27. I thought this look was cute.

28. How does everybody else feel about, like, critiques, like?

29. I was in the bottom for being beautiful.

30. So you know what? It works for me.

31. And if I got to lip sync for my life,

32. I'm gonna lip sync for my mother fucking life beautifully.

33. But like Ru's been

34. particularly poignant about don't be safe.

35. I thought what I brought was fierce.

36. I thought I looked sickening. I felt sickening.

37. But I was safe.

38. Well, she was safe because it was still the same

39. silhouette that the judges critiqued you on changing.

40. Let me tell you this.

41. She wore a corset and a panty both times.

42. I'm just saying the Tee is that the judges already

43. critiqued you on having the same silhouette,

44. so now, bitch, time to change it up.

45. Ain't nobody asking for your opinion, peanut gallery.

46. Sometimes the old school phrase

47. if you don't got nothing nice to say,

48. just let those bitches go home, sometimes that applies.

49. That can be hard for a lot of people only because

50. the only thing you have is what you brought.

51. You telling Vanjie to step her clothes up,

52. but if a person don't sew, how does she step it up?

53. Start wearing pillow cases?

54. Cutting up the couch?

55. They said Vanjie bring the same silhouette,

56. but how can she improve what she already has?

57. Hold on. I wore a—the first one was a panty and a corset.

58. The second one was a gown.

59. So I didn't bring the same silhouette three times.

60. I'm not fucking coming for you,

61. and your goddamn same silhouette.

62. I'm just saying if you don't want to be fucking safe again,

63. then change up some shit.

64. Is that fucking wrong?

65. You know everything what to say.

66. Once again, I hear like these girls making excuses.

67. Get the fuck over it.

68. We have a fabric wall.

69. There's plenty of stones.

70. There's so many scissors.

71. If the judges are getting bored by what you're doing,

72. then go back into your drag and change it.

73. Aight, you gonna give glamour?

74. My critique this week was stay true to me, bitch.

75. You got quite opposite critique.

76. Mama, I heard—I heard the—

77. Quite opposite.

78. Don't get defensive, mama.

79. Miss Yvie bumps her gum all day.

80. Wigs.

81. But the bitch only gives you spooky Tee.

82. There's not much more than spook.

83. And I'll tell you, wait until they make that spooky dooky...

84. Go home.

85. The winner ofRuPaul's Drag Race

86. receives a one-year supply

87. of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

88. and a cash prize of $100,000.

89. With extra special guest judges choreographer Travis Wall

90. and Olympians Mirai Nagasu and Adam Rippon.

91. It is a new day,

92. and there's still way too many of us left here.

93. - Oh. - Suck it, suck it.

94. It's like a house party

95. and people just don't know when to leave.

96. Silky, how does it feel to be in the bottom three?

97. The shade at the beginning of the day is real, honey.

98. You know what?

99. I don't believe that I belong there.

100. I did mother fucking Evillene,

101. and some ho's don't know what Evillene is.

102. You keep playing on that Evillene, girl,

103. but we had three looks on the runway.

104. It's always been drama, 'cause bitch hate on my beauty.

105. I would never be spooky,

106. but, bitch, would you ever be glam?

107. You will never be glam! Don't come for me.

108. Oh, girl, I hope you're not talking to me,

109. 'cause I'm about to send your ass packing.

110. Ooh. I can't wait till we're in the bottom two together.

111. There's a lot you don't know about me, bitch.

112. Thank God.

220. But two of you really made me feel the burn,

221. and I've got an ointment that will knock that right out.

222. Connie, would you do the honors?

223. I would love to.

230. from MuLondon organic skin care.

231. Thank you, Connie, darling.

232. You can leave the way you came in.

233. As they say in Hollywood, I think I will.

234. Ladies, I hope you're all warmed up,

235. because for this week's Maxi Challenge,

236. you'll be competing in the first ever

237. International Draglympics.

238. And you'll be doing it in front of a live audience.

239. You'll be performing a freestyle floor program

240. that includes compulsory fanography.

241. - Ooh. - Ooh.

242. Voguing.

243. And shablam.

244. No, baby, the AARP don't cover that.

245. Now, you'll be competing in two teams of five.

246. A'Keria and Plastique, you won the Mini Challenge,

247. so you are the team leaders.

248. A'Keria, you go first.

250. Thank you.

251. - Plastique. - Ra'Jah O'Hara.

252. Ayy.

253. Silky Ganache.

254. Miss Vanjie. Miss Van— Ahhh!

255. Yvie.

256. Thank God.

257. - Nina West. - Yay.

258. That leaves Scarlet Envy and Shuga Cain.

259. Give me some of that Shuga.

260. Yay.

261. And that means Scarlet Envy, you are Team Plastique.

262. Yes.

263. Errr! Put the brakes on,

264. because Scarlet is on our team, and we are in trouble.

265. S.O.S. She's not a dancer.

266. Help.

267. Now, ladies, the Draglympics are an international event.

268. Very prestigious.

269. Did I say puss-tigious?

270. Very puss-tigious.

271. So Team A'Keria, you'll be representing

272. the sovereign nation of Tuckpantistan.

273. Ooh.

274. And Team Plastique, you'll be representing

275. the People's Republic of Glamazonia.

276. Nice.

277. And you'll be coached

278. by Emmy Award-winning choreographer Travis Wall.

279. - Yes!

280. And U.S. Olympic figure skating champion

281. Adam Rippon.

282. Gentlemen of the world, start your engines,

283. and may the best woman win.

284. - Thank you. - Thank you.

285. I'm worried.

286. There's too many iffies in this group.

287. We got Scarlet.

288. We got Nina. She ain't a dancer.

289. She ain't solid gold, and this ain't comedy.

290. Ra'Jah, temperamental.

291. This ain't America's best dance crew right here.

292. We can't even make the auditions.

293. We are fucked.

294. Coming up...

295. Now, are you two going to be okay working together,

296. because we got a little heated this morning.

297. Y'all wanna slice each other's throat afterward,

298. by all means.

299. But right now, we're not finna have none of that.

300. Lead us to victory. Win this Olympic medal, bitch.

301. - We're taking the gold home. - Yes.

302. For this week's Maxi Challenge,

303. we have to perform in the Draglympics.

304. This challenge is super physical,

305. but I'm so excited for it

306. because I can buck the house down.

307. Gakita, gakita, ga-ga-ga.

308. When Ru said choreographer, I was like, wait, oh, no, bitch.

309. Not again.

310. - Up, one, two— - Oh, I'm sorry.

311. Ra'Jah, you shouldn't have told me

312. you had this dance experience, mama.

313. I'm going back into my Kameron Michaels shell.

314. I have never seen a dance floor at all.

315. - I've never done nothing. - Right.

316. I am the Tee when it comes to dancing,

317. but after working with the other choreographer,

318. I really don't know what to expect.

319. Oh!

320. I'm shook.

321. I'm just a little nervous for myself.

322. We all know I can't dance.

323. I mean, I haven't done a lot of death drops,

324. but if I don't do it well but I do it,

325. and they know how out of that comfort zone it is,

326. I think that might speak for itself?

327. No, because if you still do a death drop

328. and you don't do it well,

329. I think they're going to be like, what the hell was that?

330. - I was the last picked. - One, two, three, four.

331. And I can tell that none of them wanted me on the team.

332. Out. Out?

333. So that's a hard place to start from.

334. Help, literally, help.

335. I did choose my team for a reason.

336. I wanted to pick people

337. who I know actually can pick up choreography.

338. And even if you can't, you know how to make it look good.

339. My team is feeling really good

340. going into the Draglympics challenge,

341. but I'm a little worried

342. about the drama between Yvie and Silky.

343. Now, are you two going to be okay working together,

344. because we got a little heated this morning.

345. We have to address this issue.

346. Because at this point in time, we are a team,

347. and we're all on a mission.

348. I can put all my personal things aside.

349. Like this is work for me, so like, I'm coming into work.

350. Okay. I just wanted to check. We're not gonna have any—

351. Yeah, because it's five of us,

352. and I think everybody's aim

353. is they're trying to be their number one or their top three,

354. because that's what's gonna get us through this.

355. Look, I don't want any drama going forth.

356. Like, I don't have time for the B.S.

357. We trying to win.

358. Now, if y'all wanna slice each other's throat afterward,

359. by all means.

360. But as of right now, we're not finna have none of that.

361. So do anybody have any special skills?

362. - I mean— - Ballet.

363. Yeah, I know you have your baton.

364. That could be incorporated into some type of hand motion.

365. - I got a trick or two. - Yeah, you do.

366. She a bendy girl.

367. Any given performance of mine,

368. you can expect me to be flying from the ceiling,

369. hanging off of something, contorting into boxes.

370. I was born super flexible

371. because I don't produce a whole lot of collagen,

372. so my joints go every which way.

373. Do you think that you could teach somebody

374. who, you know, ain't as nimble as you—

375. Yeah, the shablam?

376. Yeah, that. - Yeah.

377. The shablam is what you're supposed to do,

378. which is supposed to be kind of like a surprise.

379. So it should come out of like a twirl,

380. and then you just bend your knee down,

381. and you find your way to the floor and point.

382. Show me how to do that.

383. I'm very ballerina,

384. so I don't really like just throw myself into things.

385. Like death drops terrify me.

386. Which way do you go when you turn?

387. When I turn, I turn to the outside.

388. So you go bam, bam, bam.

389. And then whatever leg you are going to be falling on

390. is the leg you should be spinning on.

391. I could do that.

392. Yeah, girl.

393. Oh, no, I'm not doing it on that concrete, baby.

394. Y'all keep the concrete right now.

395. I am not a dancer,

396. but I have a team full of dancers,

397. and now I have to lead them to victory.

398. My goal is to show those judges that I can be a leader.

399. Coming up...

400. Ha, seven, and back one.

401. Come up.

402. Click, click, down, through, and go.

403. Silky's flopping around on the floor

404. looking like The Greatest Catch.

405. Through, drop, come up.

406. - Ah. - Hi.

407. Hi.

408. It's time to rehearse our choreography

409. for the Draglympics.

410. Not only do we have an Olympian,

411. but we have an Emmy Award-winning choreographer.

412. I'm feeling so solid.

413. Yes.

414. We're stealing that move today.

415. I'm here to give you a show, so you want a good show?

416. I'm gonna come find you, yes.

417. No, you found me.

418. I'm ready.

419. This is the Draglympics.

420. There's three compulsory elements in this,

421. so we have to all dance with fans,

422. and then we all have to vogue,

423. and then we all have to have some version of a shablam.

424. Whatever the dance is, you guys need to sell it.

425. It's a performance.

426. So we're going to start teaching you

427. a little bit of the fanography first.

428. Please come grab a daftboy fan.

429. You're going to take the fan, one, point, two.

430. Three. You're going to open your fan on four.

431. Five, six, you're going to turn and close the fan.

432. And then you're going to open it

433. and do arched back on eight.

434. One fan down. Here we go.

435. Boom, two, three, four.

436. Five, six, seven, back.

437. - How'd you do? - Great.

438. Slapped myself.

439. A'Keria, would you do it by yourself?

440. Yeah, I sure can try it.

441. Five, six, seven, and...

442. - Step, cross, three. - One, two.

443. Then keep going. One, two, three, four.

444. - Now fan on four. - Okay, fan on four.

445. That was almost it, yeah.

446. Now, I can pop a fan all day long.

447. But to pop a fan and remember to move this way

448. and step with this foot and then do this hand...

449. Don't get in your head.

450. Just like, relax, and even if you do mess up,

451. don't make any sort of like facial.

452. - Right. - If you give like a facial,

453. everybody's gonna know when you're like uh-uh-uh.

454. All right, so let's learn

455. some of the voguing section.

456. Touch and a release. Touch and release.

457. So, bitch, get out of my way, ha.

458. Think about touch this skin, darling.

459. Brooke Lynn, can you do it once?

460. - Sure. - Five, six, sell it, great.

461. One and a two, three and a four,

462. and a right and a left and a right and a left.

463. And a circle to the back,

464. circle to the hip, step and pull, step and pull.

465. Brooke Lynn, that looks so good.

466. - It's sick. - Thank you.

467. Everyone has to come up to your level, but it looks good.

468. My eye's gonna be on Brooke Lynn to see what she can deliver,

469. because we're expecting a lot.

470. From there, you're going to go one, snap, two.

471. Three, snap, four. Five, snap, six.

472. Now, seven and an eight, and ha.

473. You're going take it all the way to the floor.

474. I need help.

475. So, listen, this is not a death drop.

476. The idea is it's a smooth transition to the floor.

477. Travis is telling me to go down graceful.

478. It's like a whoo.

479. Bitch, there's no graceful.

480. There's a pam!

481. Or you won't get nothing, honey.

482. Silky, here we go. Five, six, seven, and.

483. Go step, ha, ah, mm, ah.

484. Circle to the back.

485. Yeah, girl.

486. So everyone get to the floor.

487. We're gonna do a little five and six

488. to cross your legs,

489. Then you're going to whip around.

490. Seven, eight, to the right knee down,

491. and then you're going to pull up on one.

492. Let me see it from the floor.

493. Boom, ha, ha, seven, and back one.

494. Come up, flick, flick, down, through, and go.

495. Not bad. Maybe this becomes your solo,

496. and they get up on one, and then we all come around you.

497. - Uh-huh, I'm gonna get up. - Okay.

498. - Imma get it. - Yes, you are.

499. I'm a big bitch, but I ain't not scared big bitch.

500. Here we go, back on one. Six, seven, eight.

501. Back one, two, come up, three, four.

502. Go flick, flick, down, through, drop, come up.

503. That was a disaster.

504. Let's do that one more time.

505. Silky's flopping around on the floor

506. looking like The Greatest Catch.

507. The thing about Silky is she fucking works it.

508. She's like, yeah, I look crazy, but I'm doing it.

509. And the bitch is committed.

510. I feel like a skinny bitch today.

511. Maybe you will be by tomorrow.

512. Silky, she's gonna have to work really hard

513. to keep up with everybody else in her group,

514. but that personality alone, she's explosive.

515. And I think that she's going to do

516. really well in this challenge.

517. One more time to the floor.

518. Come up, flick, flick, down, through, and go.

519. Not bad. Yvie, you okay?

520. I'm going to have to cheat specifically the turn today.

521. Tomorrow I can do death drops, splits, kicks, everything.

522. During rehearsals, I'm a little bit rattled

523. by the fact that all of my joints are hurting.

524. But I'm just gonna have to grind through it.

525. Thank you, guys, for your hard work.

526. I really appreciate it.

527. I want to push you guys as far as possible,

528. so there's a lot to do.

529. I'm just so thankful

530. that all of you guys have some rhythm in you.

531. Some seasons, it's like, oh, it's like Bambi and...

532. Bitch, you gonna hate the next team.

533. Oh, you gonna be angry.

534. Yvie, can I talk to you for a second?

535. - Yeah. - Cool.

536. - You all right? - Yeah, I'm fine.

537. It's just I want to give myself one more day to rest, though.

538. What happened to it?

539. Like was it just from the last challenge or...

540. Yeah, it was just from the last challenge,

541. I was standing in heels for all day.

542. Okay. I don't want to, like, take it to the next level

543. where you're not going to be part of the competition.

544. Because of my condition,

545. I know that I shouldn't be doing all of my contortions right now.

546. I just would rather not bring it up,

547. because I don't want to be babied.

548. Just make sure, like, stay as honest as possible,

549. and then we're going to get through this.

550. - All right. - Awesome.

551. - Thank you so much. - Take care.

552. I'm frustrated having to hold myself back

553. because I didn't come here to play safe.

554. Safe gets you sent home.

555. - Hi. - Hi.

556. - Hey. - There go the boys.

557. This challenge in particular I'm excited for

558. because I started out my drag career

559. in backup dancing for all those chickenheads.

560. Like I'm excited, and I feel like I can do good with this.

561. At this point, I know I have to stand out,

562. 'cause I want to win something.

563. What we're going to do first

564. is we're going to work on the voguing.

565. So let's learn these hands. This is going to be fun.

566. Up and out, up and out,

567. and a voom, badda-ba, badda-boom, badda-ba.

568. Five, six, seven, and up and out, up and out.

569. And an up and a down, and an up and a down.

570. Nice. I just want more body.

571. Ra'Jah, one more time. Five, six, seven.

572. And up and an out, up and an out,

573. and a boom, tadda-ba, badda-boom, badda-ba.

574. And a hip and a hip, and a step and a back.

575. Five, six, seven, and boom.

576. Good work.

577. That's really great comparatively to everybody else.

578. But I still want you to push yourself further.

579. - Okay. - Vanjie, can you show me?

580. Five, six, boom-tadda-da, boom-tadda-da.

581. And an up and a down and an up and a down.

582. And a boom, boom, step, ha.

583. Five, six, seven, and ha. Amazing.

584. I have no notes.

585. I'm coming for you, Ra'Jah.

586. Next up we're going to work on the fanography,

587. so please come grab a fan.

588. Guess who's back in the house.

589. Five, six, seven, ha.

590. You're going to step across.

591. One, you're going to pull the fan across on two,

592. then you're going to step three, you're going to swipe on four.

593. Here we go. Five, six, seven, jump, eight.

594. Step past eight, step to the out.

595. Step across. Feet, feet, a knock-knock, go.

596. Know exactly what the fan is doing.

597. Your execution score is going to up or down

598. dependent on what these fans are doing.

599. - Scarlet. - Oh, God.

600. Ready? Here we go. Seven, jump, eight.

601. One and two, three and four.

602. Five and six, seven, eight, one and two.

603. Let's try it again. It's like, snap.

604. Give me that. Just do that part.

605. On two. One, hop.

606. I just want to see this.

607. One, hop.

608. Act like you're in drag, girls. It's a snap.

609. Give me something there.

610. - It was not very good. - No.

611. - But we're gonna get there. - Okay.

612. Scarlet is definitely the weakest.

613. However, why do I feel like she's gonna, like,

614. come forward tomorrow and like win the challenge?

615. One and two, three and four. You lost it.

616. Let's try again.

617. Of course we still have the struggle bus with Scarlet.

618. And up.

619. In the way.

620. Oh, I'm sorry.

621. Bitch, could you find your spot so I can get in mine?

622. Thank you. Move, bitch.

623. Here we go. This is our last time.

624. Then we gotta wrap it up. Here we go.

625. Five, six, seven, go.

626. In, up, out, down, hit, through, oh, my God.

627. I thought someone was going to get it.

628. No one did, though.

629. All I know is I'm looking at Travis's face,

630. and he looks like he just saw Michael Jackson's ghost.

631. Out of the two groups,

632. you guys did have a harder time picking up choreography,

633. but you have to get those steps.

634. Those steps are part of your compulsory elements.

635. This is becoming a disaster.

636. I'm praying that these girls get hit

637. by the Rhythm Nation stick.

638. This was my chance to do something good.

639. Like what did I do to deserve this?

640. Coming up...

641. Today is the Draglympics.

642. How you feeling, girl?

643. I can just feel my bones like sliding apart.

644. Oh, shit.

645. - Silky, why you fart? - Did you fart?

646. You farted. Yes, you did, bitch.

647. You nasty bitch.

648. Today is the Draglympics.

649. We got to do fanography, vogueography, and shablam.

650. Oh, get my wig, girl, get my wig!

651. Come on twerk.

652. - Come on, pancake. I'm coming in.

653. Come on, pancake.

654. This why I love y'all nasty ho's.

655. They got an ass but I got a stomach.

656. Oh, Lord, Jesus.

657. How do you feel about your team, bitch?

658. Girl, you know some of us are not as strong dancers,

659. but I have to make sure I'm doing my part.

660. You know my theory. You got it,

661. or lip sync for your mother fucking life.

662. Yeah.

663. It's important for me to do well in this challenge

664. because I've been close,

665. but I haven't been able to like hit the home runs.

666. I can't wait to see

667. what you're going to wear on this runway, bitch.

668. Sometimes I don't think

669. my runways go over that well,

670. So I need to make sure I at least sell it

671. and am confident on the runway.

672. I want to do it, one, for Mama Ru,

673. because, you know, she brought me back,

674. and I feel like I been letting her down a little bit.

675. Uh-uh.

676. Just like, lately,

677. I've been feeling like I haven't been improving,

678. like, girl, we're like halfway through the competition,

679. I haven't even won a Mini Challenge.

680. I feel like it's a lot of expectations

681. from like a lot of people.

682. I don't... like, I feel like I should be doing better.

683. So it frustrates me because I know what I can do.

684. And I feel like I just have been like kind of scared.

685. Like I'm like, bitch, I need to do something,

686. because I want people to know that I'm not like here

687. just to kiki and hang out you know.

688. We all came to do—

689. - A job. - To perform our best, yeah.

690. Trust me, you're doing just what you're supposed to do,

691. which is each day handle each challenge

692. the way you're supposed to, and continue to fight in this.

693. Yeah.

694. I'm frustrated with myself

695. because I know what Yvie said was true.

696. Like I need to step it up, because I've been safe.

697. Brooke Lynn, babe, how did you get started in drag?

698. I started doing drag professionally when I was 25.

699. And I moved to New York,

700. and I danced with Ballet Trockadero.

701. Oh, yes. I have some friends in Trockadero.

702. Ballet Trockadero de Monte Carlo,

703. it's an all-male ballet company, and they do drag.

704. So I got to be a ballerina for four years and travel the world.

705. I performed for royalty, performed for Karl Lagerfeld,

706. Princess Caroline of Monaco.

707. So that was a life-changing experience for me.

708. I danced there for four years.

709. So fierce. I love that.

710. So how you feeling, girl?

711. I know your body was kind of messing with you today.

712. Honestly, I have this joint disorder

713. that gives me all of these crazy flexible abilities.

714. But it's a double-edged sword

715. because some days I wake up

716. and I can just feel my bones, like, sliding apart.

717. Oh, shit.

718. And that's how I felt the day we got this challenge.

719. I felt my body being like, girl, today is not the day.

720. Growing up, my bones were always hurting

721. to an unnecessary amount.

722. We thought it was growing pains.

723. I remember being like 13 or 14

724. when I finally got, like, the full diagnosis

725. of what exactly is going on with my body.

726. What is it called?

727. It's called Ehlers-Danlos.

728. Oh, wow.

729. And it's just, my body doesn't produce enough collagen,

730. which is why I've got all of these

731. and all of this at 24.

732. Really?

733. My condition is something that is eventually

734. going to take me out of drag commission,

735. at least in the way that I'm doing it now.

736. Is it not curable? Is that what it—

737. It just gets worse and worse over time.

738. I met somebody who has the same disease as me

739. and is 10 years older.

740. They're in a wheelchair.

741. - They have heart complications. - Are you serious?

742. So I get to like—I get like a little vision of my future.

743. Mama, I'm so sorry. That's so wild.

744. That's why every year I've auditioned forDrag Race.

745. I was like, I have to get on this year.

746. I have to do it, because I'm like,

747. I'm losing my skills as I go on.

748. Does it bother you, like, a lot of the time?

749. It's always kind of there.

750. Like, I'm literally always in pain.

751. It's just it's not always at a 10.

752. It's usually at like a four or five.

753. Even though drag is something

754. that's been really hard on my body,

755. and it's definitely something

756. I'm not going to be able to do forever,

757. it's so liberating

758. that if I have to go out on stage in a wheelchair,

759. girl, like, I'll do it.

760. She has all this pain, but have you seen the bitch?

761. She acts like nothing is wrong.

762. You never know what someone's going through.

763. So for those of us who don't have weird joint disorders,

764. how are your bodies feeling?

765. Well, now I'm not complaining.

766. So...

767. Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.

768. Michelle Visage, are you an athlete?

769. No, darling, but I'm a very large athletic supporter.

770. If loving you is thong, I don't wanna be right.

771. The amazing Travis Wall.

772. Now are you carrying a torch for my girls?

773. I'm positively flaming, Ru.

778. on Dancing With the Stars.

782. would land you here?

785. Wait till I show you my triple axel.

815. and four out of four Drag Race judges agree.

816. The shade is real.

903. walking children in nature.

904. Bitch, I am from Chicago.

905. Boo! Who cares?

910. and make them eat it.

913. Hard to believe,

917. - Ouch. - Yikes.

918. During the dancing,

919. I slipped a little bit and hurt my ankle.

920. But it's not so extreme

921. that it should hinder my progress in this competition.

922. Adam, it's time for the Draglympics closing anthem.

923. You know, this always brings a tear to my eye.

924. Due to the fact that her thighs spread just like...

977. hobbling down the runway,

978. showing the judges a Japanese underground drug lord,

979. like she runs some shady business.

980. What are those?

1034. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this

1035. saunter down theDrag Race stage.

1036. Remember, it ain't over till the fat lady sings.

1037. Scarlet Envy.

1038. Death becomes her.

1039. Calling Dr. Bombay.

1040. My runway look is giving you expensive hippie.

1041. Lucille Ball meets Brooke Shields

1042. meets Ann-Margret.

1043. She is sexy, she is funny,

1044. she is straight up gorgeous.

1045. Lana Del Rey, when is your album coming out?

1046. Soon.

1047. Just my best dress and a few butterfly clips.

1048. Butterflies, oh, no.

1049. Coming up...

1050. Ladies, I have a final question.

1051. Who should go home tonight and why?

1052. Welcome, ladies.

1053. You all did an outstanding job tonight,

1054. and you've made my job very difficult.

1055. The winning team is...

1056. From Tuckpantistan, Team A'Keria.

1057. - Good job, y'all. - Yeah, bitch. Congrats.

1058. You are all my sheroes,

1059. but one of you earned Draglympic gold.

1060. A'Keria, con-drag-ulations.

1061. You are the winner of this week's Maxi Challenge.

1062. You've won a $2,500 gift card from daftboy,

1063. and a $2,500 gift card from Elea's Closet.

1064. Baby, listen, I feel like Tony the Tiger.

1065. I feel great!

1066. A'Keria, you picked a kickass team.

1067. Thank you.

1068. And that includes the handicapped hooker.

1069. - Handi-capable. - Handi-capable whore.

1070. So, Yvie, what happened? What'd you do?

1071. My heel slipped out from under me a little bit,

1072. and I rolled it.

1073. - Are you okay? - I'm gonna be fine.

1074. I want to take it easy until the next challenge,

1075. and then get ready, bitches, because she's a fast healer.

1076. And for crying out loud, no kick fucking.

1077. All right, Team A'Keria, you may leave the stage.

1078. Thank you.

1079. Team Plastique, I'm sorry, my dears,

1080. but you're all up for elimination.

1081. Now it's time for the judges' critiques,

1082. starting with Plastique Tiara.

1083. Your look tonight is just really well put together.

1084. The accents, the wings, it all works for me.

1085. You, in particular, Plastique,

1086. tonight, I felt more from you,

1087. so I'm very happy.

1088. But I am going to ask for more,

1089. 'cause you know I'm a greedy-ass bottom.

1090. I just think you could just

1091. bring up the volume in your performance.

1092. I felt like some of the other queens

1093. have a bigger personality,

1094. and I just think you need to like

1095. turn up that knob as much as possible.

1096. Keep going where you're going

1097. and push yourself to get there quicker,

1098. because tick tock, you don't stop.

1099. Ra'Jah O'Hara.

1100. Tonight on the runway,

1101. I think you look really fun.

1102. I'm not always a fan of something covering the face,

1103. but it's see-through enough that we can see your expression.

1104. Performance-wise, you still need to take it up.

1105. Yesterday, I felt like

1106. you had some of the most tools in your box

1107. compared to the rest of your team.

1108. Today, I felt that you were just slightly unmemorable.

1109. You're an amazing dancer.

1110. I think you just need to embody all of that

1111. and deliver it forward.

1112. Hearing that from you kind of means the world to me,

1113. because a couple weeks back...

1114. I had a situation with another choreographer

1115. that really just tore me down.

1116. Whew.

1117. You know, you're competing

1118. against big personalities,

1119. and so, in future challenges, instead of looking to the past

1120. and thinking on the negative, just be you.

1121. Up next, Vanjie.

1122. Your energy in rehearsal was infectious.

1123. It definitely portrayed onto the stage

1124. in the main challenge.

1125. You slayed the performance 100%.

1126. Tonight on the runway,

1127. it's sort of like Drag Race 101,

1128. where you shouldn't just wear a leotard and tights.

1129. Do you know what I'm going to say?

1130. I know. Sorry.

1131. It's either a leotard

1132. or a corset and a panty and some kind of pasty.

1133. - Right. - And then glitter on the chest.

1134. I know what you're going to be wearing

1135. when you come around the corner.

1136. I shouldn't be doing that,

1137. and I'm getting bored.

1138. So I get it.

1139. Like maybe put a dress on.

1140. But tonight, like, I like the way you look.

1141. Thank you. I appreciate it.

1142. All right, up next, Nina West.

1143. Even if you aren't the best dancer up there,

1144. I didn't really give a shit.

1145. You were selling every single moment.

1146. I could not take my eyes off of you.

1147. You were enigmatic.

1148. What did you call her?

1149. Sorry. I'm going to help you with something now.

1150. - You're a big girl. - I am.

1151. - And you have big shoulders. - I do.

1152. - And a big kind of chest. - Yeah.

1153. I think you need to focus more padding on the bottom half

1154. to balance out the top half.

1155. It's just going to make a more pleasing figure.

1156. Okay, absolutely. I totally see that.

1157. Michelle is right. Maybe you could put your tits on your ass.

1158. All right. Scarlet Envy.

1159. You were actually the one that I really lost.

1160. You were like gone for me, and I don't know why.

1161. I know what you can do in a performance.

1162. I've directed you.

1163. Were you insecure about the dancing?

1164. - Very. - There we go.

1165. Yesterday I felt like, you know,

1166. it was hard for both of us.

1167. However, today, you were the most improved.

1168. Were you the weakest at retaining the choreography

1169. and the steps? Yes.

1170. Were you the weakest at performance? No.

1171. And tonight on the runway you look pretty,

1172. but it kind of is not right for me.

1173. Think grand, baby.

1174. The outfit is a little bit basic.

1175. The earrings going into the necklace,

1176. that one is gold and one is—

1177. - There you go. - Take it off.

1178. - Gorgeous. - Already better.

1179. It's already much better.

1180. It was just like very hard for me this week.

1181. I feel like I've been so incredibly confident

1182. through this process thus far,

1183. I think maybe it almost gets on my sisters' nerves occasionally.

1184. And it just vanished.

1185. Thank you, Scarlet.

1186. Ladies, I have a final question.

1187. Who should go home tonight...

1188. And why?

1189. Starting with Plastique Tiara.

1190. Just based on the critiques, my sister Scarlet Envy.

1191. All right. Ra'Jah.

1192. If it were my choice, I would send Scarlet.

1193. A lot of the times, when I was losing my way—

1194. well, well, I won't blame her

1195. for some of the mistakes that I made, but Scarlet.

1196. I would have to also say Scarlet,

1197. just based on what has happened.

1198. Nina West.

1199. I would also say Scarlet.

1200. I will say this, though.

1201. Nobody has worked harder,

1202. so I think that should be noted.

1203. Scarlet, who should go home tonight?

1204. I can't say any of them.

1205. But I'm not going to say me.

1206. So who should go home?

1207. I guess Ra'Jah's been in the bottom

1208. a lot.

1209. Well, thank you, ladies, for your honesty,

1210. and for your hard work.

1211. While you untuck backstage,

1212. the judges and I will deliberate.

1213. All right, now just between us squirrel friends,

1214. what do you think?

1215. Let's start with Plastique Tiara.

1216. Tonight on the runway, she looks like an anime character.

1217. She's gorgeous.

1218. I think she has spent all this time

1219. perfecting what's on the outside

1220. that she's forgetting about what's on the inside.

1221. I still need more,

1222. or else she's just going to be that pretty girl over there.

1223. Ra'Jah O'Hara.

1224. In the performance, I kept losing her.

1225. When you're with four other girls,

1226. you can't get lost in the mix. You just can't.

1227. It's do or die here on RuPaul's Drag Race.

1228. Vanessa Vanjie Mateo.

1229. Listen, on the opposite end of the spectrum, very memorable.

1230. But tonight on the runway was a total miss.

1231. Nina West, our Viking queen.

1232. You can't win a challenge

1233. if you bring a look like that to RuPaul's Drag Race.

1234. It wasn't just something you can buy off the rack.

1235. Are you sure?

1236. Those breasts were the size of mine,

1237. which are not buyable off the rack.

1238. You have to go to a doctor.

1239. But the performance tonight, I'm a huge Nina fan.

1240. Scarlet Envy.

1241. Tonight on the runway, her paint was pretty,

1242. her hair was pretty, it just wasn't enough.

1243. It needed to be bigger.

1244. She gave us butterfly clips.

1245. Butterflies are a very tender subject

1246. here at RuPaul's Drag Race.

1247. She was definitely the hardest person

1248. I've ever worked with in my career.

1249. - What? - You're kidding. Really?

1250. To like to get to do steps. Yes.

1251. Because there's the counting?

1252. It's just the counting.

1253. It was just a really hard disconnect from brain to foot.

1254. In her defense, your left foot and your right foot,

1255. they look very similar.

1256. - They're very similar. - Yeah.

1257. And they're right next to each other.

1258. Yes. I know. I know.

1259. It must be really hard to stand on stage

1260. and have all of your sisters say your name to go home.

1261. I don't know what that feels like.

1262. Ru, who do you think should go home?

1263. - Travis Wall!

1264. All right, silence. I've made my decision.

1265. Bring back my golden girls.

1266. Welcome back, ladies.

1267. I've made some decisions.

1268. Plastique Tiara, you found your wings.

1269. Now take me higher.

1270. You're safe.

1271. You may join the other girls.

1272. Scarlet Envy, you are beautiful,

1273. but tonight your performance didn't score with the judges.

1274. I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.

1275. Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, you're a funny bunny,

1276. but stop relying on that bodysuit.

1277. - You're safe. - Thank you.

1278. Ra'Jah O'Hara, tonight you got lost in the crowd.

1279. Nina West, we have one word for you.

1280. Proportionizing.

1281. Nina West...

1282. You are safe.

1283. Thank you very much.

1284. Ra'Jah, I'm sorry, my dear, but you are up for elimination.

1285. Here we go again.

1286. I'm so sick of being in the bottom.

1287. Two queens stand before me.

1288. Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me

1289. and save yourself from elimination.

1290. The time has come...

1291. for you to lip sync...

1292. for your life!

1293. I'm gonna give this everything I have.

1294. I'm not ready to go home.

1295. Good luck...

1296. and don't fuck it up.

1297. Oh, girl, yes,

1298. this is about to be your last dance.

1299. We'll see you at the reunion. Bye.

1300. All right, bitch, yeah!

1301. We all know I can't dance,

1302. but I'm pulling out all my tricks.

1303. I'm determined to survive.

1304. Whoo!

1305. Ladies, I've made my decision.

1306. Ra'Jah O'Hara, shantay you stay.

1307. Scarlet Envy, trust me when I say

1308. this ain't your last dance.

1309. Now sashay away.

1310. Thank you. I never thought bell bottoms

1311. would land me in the bottom, but I will never stop dancing.

1312. Come on, Scarlet.

1313. Last dance, bitch.

1314. The world wants me, and the feeling is mutual.

1315. Mwah.

1316. I don't think I deserved to be eliminated,

1317. but I look forward to an incredibly bright future.

1318. I'm very grateful.

1319. And I'm just very reflective right now.

1320. Figuratively and literally.

1321. Don't let anybody tell you you can't dance,

1322. even if that someone is sometimes yourself.

1323. Con-drag-ulations, ladies.

1324. And remember, if you can't love yourself,

1325. how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?

1326. Can I get an amen up in here?

1327. - Amen. - All right.

1328. Now let the music play.

1329. Next time onRuPaul's Drag Race...

1330. You need to create a farm-to-runway look.

1331. Bitch, why are you putting my shit.

1332. on your garment in the first place?

1333. You have a really pretty face.

1334. Honey, that's everything.

1335. It doesn't suck, but it could be better.

1336. Make me lip sync for my life.
