RuPaul's Drag Race 14x12

1. Previously onRuPaul's Drag Race...

2. Based on your Snatch Game performances,

3. you are all up for elimination.

4. So tonight, we're throwing a Lip Sync Lalaparuza Smackdown,

5. a series of six lip syncs.

6. If you win your lip sync,

7. you will be safe from elimination.

8. Daya Betty. Willow Pill.

9. Jorgeous. Lady Camden.

10. Angeria.

11. Shantay you stay.

12. If you lose, you'll continue to face off

13. until two queens remain.

14. Bosco, Jasmine, I've made my decision.

15. Bosco, shantay you stay.

16. Thank you.

17. Jasmine, sashay away.

18. The winner ofRuPaul's Drag Race

19. receives a one-year supply

20. of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics,

21. and a grand prize of $100,000, powered by Cash App.

22. With extra-special guest judge Andra Day.

23. Ooh.

24. Oh, my God!

25. I am exhausted,

26. but I am so happy

27. that I made it through the Lalaparuza,

28. because that was a lot.

29. I just knew Jasmine's message was gonna be long as shit.

30. Miss Jasmine somehow manages

31. to continue talking to us from beyond the grave.

32. "Dear ladies, I'm so happy

33. to have found new sisters and all y'all."

34. I don't know if there's even, like, enough cleaner

35. to get this shit off the mirror.

36. "Hope y'all the best."

37. It just makes me love her more.

38. "P.S.: Angie, DeJa, Jorgeous,

39. "go all the way, my forever sisters.

40. Love, Jasmine Kennedie."

41. Aw!

42. Angie, DeJa, Jorgeous, you better go all the way.

43. I'd be more offended if you were here saying it,

44. but you're gone,

45. so I guess I can't be that offended.

46. They really made both of us do three lip syncs.

47. And she'd already been at, what, three?

48. So she's the most lip-synced diva of all time.

49. In Drag Racehistory, yep.

50. Werk.

51. But when it comes to a competition

52. between, like, being a giant ho, you're not gonna beat me.

53. Toodles!

54. I may have had to lip sync

55. the most times last week,

56. but I don't think that is indicative

57. of me being a lesser performer than the other girls.

58. I still have the most wins tied with Angie,

59. and if anything, being at the bottom

60. just gives me residual anger

61. that I'm just, like, using to fuel me.

62. Was there anything that you guys truly took away from it

63. except for I will never wanna do Snatch Gameagain?

64. I think I learned that Ru wants to see more of you

65. than the person you're trying to be.

66. Yeah.

67. I didn't learn shit.

68. Ooh, girl!

69. She done already done had herses!

70. What's next?

71. Hey, showgirls.

72. - Hello! - Hi!

73. I see Paris, I see France,

74. I see queens who sing and dance.

75. But the greatest thing you'll ever learnt

76. is just to keep your can-can turnt.

77. Aah!

78. Are we going to Paris?

79. Hello, hello, hello!

80. Hi, pussy bow!

81. Everybody say l'amour!

82. - L'amour! - L'amour!

83. For this week's maxi-challenge,

84. you need to take us to gay Paree!

85. - Yes! - Whoo!

86. As you star

87. in the most romantic Rusical of all time:

88. Moulin Ru!

89. Inspired by Moulin Rouge! The Musicalon Broadway.

90. Yay! I'm really excited for a Rusical challenge.

91. Rusicals are my favorite challenges to watch.

92. This is gonna be an opportunity

93. to show the judges that

94. Set in an iconic Paris drag club,

95. the Rusical features several many iconic roles.

96. Ooh.

97. There's Saltine, the tragic showgirl

98. torn between love and money.

99. There's Mama Z, a bearded queen and the owner of the Moulin Ru.

100. There's the Green Fairy.

101. Think of her as a genie in a bottle...

102. - ... of absinthe. - Oh, okay.

103. And last but not least,

104. there are four scene-stealing Moulin Ru girls:

105. Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent.

106. Yes!

107. Now, I'll let you decide who plays which part.

108. Oh, my God, here we go.

109. I don't know how this is gonna go,

110. but I know that I better get the fucking part I want.

111. That's all I know.

112. Now, later today you'll rehearse

113. with Moulin Rucomposer Leland.

114. - Oh! - Oh!

115. Choreographer Miguel Zarate.

116. - Plus a mystery guest director.

117. Then tomorrow, you will debut Moulin Ruon the main stage.

118. All right.

119. So don't, pardon my French, fuck it up.

120. Okay!

121. Oh, yeah, I speak French.

122. I am ecstatic.

123. This feels like it very much aligns

124. with who Bosco is as a performer,

125. and I have the opportunity to really blow their socks off

126. with the next week.

127. Racers, start your engines,

128. and may the best drag queen win.

129. What are we doing?

130. Oh!

131. I feel like this time around,

132. choosing roles is gonna be a little more difficult.

133. - Let's listen. - Let's listen to this.

134. Because we're getting to the point of the competition

135. where the judges have to notice you.

136. Ooh!

137. I would love to do this one.

138. I really want the Talent role,

139. because, girl, show-stopping, very Xtina vibes,

140. and that's very me, because, girl, show-stopping.

141. Oh, I think I want this one.

142. - That was hot. - Ahh.

143. The salty Saltine!

144. So cute!

145. Yeah.

146. The role of Saltine is the lead role.

147. She is a cabaret burlesque courtesan superstar.

148. That is Bosco.

149. I know what I've got my eye on.

150. I have my heart set on getting Saltine.

151. After the feedback from Michelle

152. about being quiet and softly spoken...

153. Your softness and your shyness

154. will affect you in this competition.

155. I feel like this is kind of the opportunity to do it in.

156. I know what I want.

157. I know who I wanna be.

158. I want Uniqueness, period.

159. I think I've established that compromise is for losers.

160. I was the winner of last week's challenge,

161. and the last sixties challenge,

162. I gave up whatever the fuck I wanted to you guys, correct?

163. Correct.

164. Let me have Nerve.

165. Does anyone want Nerve?

166. Perf!

167. Kudos to Miss DeJa,

168. but I don't think winning Snatch Game

169. is a good reason to decide that you could have a role.

170. But, like, I didn't want that role, so werk.

171. I like Talent and Green Fairy.

172. I like Green Fairy because I feel like

173. if you think of a little green absinthe fairy, it's me.

174. I do think of Willow.

175. And I really wanna have that moment.

176. Willow can have the Green Fairy. That's fine.

177. But I got my foot on this Talent role.

178. I want Talent because, bitch, I think I am show-stopping,

179. and I definitely showed that in the last lip sync.

180. And I've been the team player for almost all the challenges,

181. and now I'm putting my fucking foot down.

182. I mean, there's been a lot of us

183. who's just been very courteous of other people

184. this entire competition, so it's about right here and right now.

185. Does anyone want Charisma?

186. I don't think anyone's spoken on Charisma yet.

187. It's the gold digger who likes sugar daddies.

188. No, that role would not be good for me,

189. and it does not fit me whatsoever.

190. Girl.

191. You know what? I'm gonna go ahead and call Charisma.

192. I am an entertainer,

193. and Angie's gonna do what Angie does, so...

194. This is frustrating.

195. I don't wanna get lost in the crowd in this number,

196. but somebody had to eat the boo-boo in this moment.

197. I want Saltine.

198. I also want Saltine.

199. It feels like very much my vibe.

200. I embody Saltine, and I am also putting my foot down for her.

201. Okay, yes, there is a sexiness to it,

202. but I feel like I showed the other side of Saltine,

203. which is the romance and the love story.

204. And I feel like I've proved that to the judges

205. as I beat you in the lip sync.

206. That is a good point.

207. Do you think you would have beaten me in Swept Away?

208. Yes, I do.

209. Mm, that's a bold opinion.

210. Yeah.

211. It's okay to be wrong sometimes.

212. I know that she wants me to be knocked down a peg

213. so that I will crumble and then give her the part,

214. and that's not happening.

215. So right now we don't have anybody

216. - looking at Mama Z. - For Mama Z, yeah.

217. I mean, I think it's only fair that one of you takes Mama Z,

218. if you're both so set on getting Saltine.

219. Saltine has loads of lines,

220. and I feel like I'm gonna have no problem with that.

221. You sure aren't, because you're not gonna have them.

222. We'll just have to watch and see.

223. What the fuck, Bosco? Like, it's rude, honestly.

224. Lady Camden is more versatile to pull off Saltine or Mama Z.

225. I don't know if I could make Mama Z work.

226. Telling me I could do both,

227. I just don't feel like that's fair,

228. to, like, sway me that way, you know?

229. I'm getting the role of fucking Saltine,

230. and they're gonna have to drag my goddamn body out of here

231. before I leave without it.

232. We're literally just wasting time, guys.

233. Yeah.

234. Since neither of us are budging,

235. so I feel like we're gonna have to flip a coin for it.

236. - Yeah. - Mm.

237. I would like to see what the room thinks,

238. if we could do a vote.

239. Okay.

240. And see what people would say for a role.

241. Or you could close your eyes, put your hand up—

242. No, I wanna know.

243. I don't feel like a vote is fair.

244. It's not up to the other queens to cast this.

245. I'll go first.

246. Saltine, I'm seeing Bosco,

247. because it's something about Mama Z

248. that I really think you would really do well.

249. I'll keep tally.

250. Jorgeous?

251. Um, I would totally see Lady Camden.

252. One for one, ladies.

253. I think Camden is Saltine.

254. Okay.

255. Willow.

256. I don't know.

257. I can tell you what I think, and then you—

258. What do you think?

259. I think Bosco, so that ties it.

260. Oh, fuck you, bitch.

261. I mean, based off of watching lip syncs yesterday,

262. I would have to say Camden.

263. But Bosco served a lot of sex.

264. So your final answer?

265. So suddenly it's all on my shoulders

266. who gets this role.

267. Oh, my God, one of you is gonna hate me.

268. You're the RuPaul, so what's the tea, girl?

269. I don't want that responsibility,

270. because somehow they're gonna blame it on me if they fail.

271. Coming up...

272. Oh, my fucking God.

273. Leslie Jordan.

274. I am gonna be your director.

275. So your final answer?

276. Willow?

277. Okay, I see them equally for Saltine,

278. but for Mama Z, I do see Camden more.

279. So your answer is Bosco for Saltine?

280. And so my answer would be Bosco for Saltine.

281. Ugh, I hate this so much.

282. I really think I only said Bosco

283. because I knew Bosco would take it harder

284. if she didn't get the role.

285. So Bosco's Saltine, final answer?

286. I don't want to fuck you over,

287. but at the same time, I'm standing my ground,

288. and I got the majority vote.

289. You know what?

290. Fuck all y'all.

291. You better fucking turn that shit out,

292. and if you don't, I'm gonna be pissed,

293. because I wanted that part.

294. That was my opportunity to stand my ground and be strong,

295. but I just feel really disappointed in myself

296. that I let myself get pushed over.

297. You can Venmo me $5,000.

298. What?

299. Guys, I don't want none of this energy

300. going through into the rehearsal.

301. Like, because it will fuck us up.

302. Like, I personally would like to take a quick moment away.

303. That was intense.

304. I don't take pleasure in, like, standing in my friend's way,

305. but my priority in this competition is me.

306. It's all your fault.

307. I'm just kidding.

308. No one is gonna put this on me.

309. Camden looks pissed.

310. It's like when you get in a fight

311. with your brother or sister

312. and then you just, like, go into the other room.

313. Camden is, like, I'm going into my corner,

314. nobody fucking touch me,

315. and I'll let you all know when I'm gonna come out.

316. I really don't like doing what I just did,

317. because by nature, I'm a very accommodating and chill person.

318. Oh, I'm gonna have to do some fucking damage control

319. with Lady after this.

320. She'll be fine.

321. You gotta do what you gotta to get through the competition.

322. That's what I've been saying the whole fucking time,

323. and people were thinking I was being a bitch about it.

324. But that's why I said it from the beginning.

325. So do what you gotta fucking do.

326. I take a moment,

327. sit with the unpleasantness of fighting with a friend,

328. let myself feel like an asshole,

329. and then I move the fuck on.

330. How you feeling?

331. I'm okay. How are you?

332. I'm good.

333. I just wanna say that I really do, like, think

334. that this part will be sickening for you.

335. It's just hard to take comfort from people

336. when everyone's really cushy with what they got,

337. and they're all like, oh, yeah, this is totally you.

338. You could do so great at this.

339. It's, like, no, I don't think you even think that.

340. I feel like everyone just is really happy with what they got.

341. The part that I have is not a part that I wanted.

342. I know what Lady Camden is going through in this moment,

343. and it doesn't always feel good to make the tough decision

344. or be the bigger person or whatever.

345. But that does not mean

346. that you won't knock the role that you got out of the park.

347. And it's hard, because I feel like

348. I would just do such a better job at it, to be honest, but—

349. - Yeah, I feel the same. - Yeah.

350. I feel the same.

351. I could have murdered this part, I do.

352. I feel like it's more me, but this could possibly be me, too.

353. So now the name of the game is making what we have work.

354. Yeah.

355. And we've seen you be very funny.

356. That's why I think that this part, you can handle it.

357. I feel like Angeria sees something in me

358. that I don't always see in myself, honestly.

359. And when she's saying, bitch, you can do this,

360. I'm kind of going...

361. I think you're right, I can.

362. I feel like that weird kind of, like, crazy energy

363. that I had when I was doing Freddie.

364. I feel like I'm gonna bring some of that kooky weirdness

365. - to Mama Z. - I feel like you should, yeah.

366. You know, there's a switch in my mind

367. where I go, I could never possibly—oh.

368. Fuck it, I'll do it.

369. No such thing as small roles.

370. Only small boobs.

371. I'm feeling, like, fine, Bosco.

372. You can be happy with the part that you got

373. and you fought so hard for.

374. Thank you for cheering me up.

375. But I'm very capable of catching up behind you.

376. Just... watch out.

377. Coming up...

378. Punch and punch and hit and head.

379. Seven and eight and—

380. Wow.

381. One, two, three, kick it.

382. Are y'all shitting yourselves?

383. Wow.

384. - Whoa! - Welcome, ladies.

385. Hello!

386. Oh, my fucking God.

387. Leslie Jordan.

388. This is wild.

389. My grandma's a giant Will and Gracefan,

390. and I used to watch Will and Gracewith her growing up,

391. and he's so funny.

392. Four, five, six, seven.

393. Leslie Jordan's videos

394. were one of my favorites getting through quarantine.

395. It's still March.

396. How many days in March?

397. She just says what's on her mind.

398. She don't give a fuck.

399. What are y'all doing?

400. Screwing?

401. I am gonna be your director

402. - this week.

403. Say hello to Leland, our composer,

404. and Miguel Zarate, our choreographer.

405. - Hi, ladies. - Hi!

406. Now, listen, here's a secret you may not know.

407. I was doing drag in Atlanta before RuPaul.

408. Oh! Oh, bitch!

409. Sister!

410. I was the sweet and petite Miss Baby Wipes.

411. Leland, what do the girls need to know about Moulin Ru?

412. The majority of you are on stage for most of the Rusical,

413. so you have to stay in your character

414. from the second the Rusical starts to the second it ends.

415. You better pee beforehand.

416. Very important.

417. Let's just get it started.

418. - Cool. - Saltine.

419. A lot of pressure is riding on me to impress,

420. because I just fought like a fucking animal for this role,

421. and I gotta deliver.

422. Saltine, she's the one that everyone wants

423. and no one can afford.

424. Let's just bring that bitch out.

425. And you're gonna go one and two and three and four,

426. five and six and seven and eight. Beautiful.

427. - You take direction well. - Thank you.

428. As Bosco is picking up the choreography,

429. I'm remembering that Bosco is a talented dancer.

430. Five and six and push, push.

431. - Nice! - Wow.

432. I don't want Bosco to do bad.

433. I just wanna do better than Bosco.

434. Angeria as Charisma.

435. That's right.

436. Get up there! It's your turn!

437. We're gonna start off cute. One and two.

438. Then you're gonna go three and four.

439. Okay, hold on.

440. - Three and four. - Two.

441. Right.

442. Remember you need to be focusing on lip syncing

443. and doing the choreography and playing the character.

444. You know, there's a lot to balance in this one.

445. So what advice would you give Angeria to learn those moves?

446. Attaching something to the move outside of the count.

447. Like, shake the dice, lick it up.

448. Shake the dice and lick it up.

449. Shake the dice and lick it up.

450. I know that me and choreography ain't the best of friends,

451. but I'm just hoping

452. I'm able to shake the dice and lick it up.

453. Thank you so much.

454. - Willow! - Hey.

455. My Green Fairy.

456. Here's the gag.

457. It's a full sequence, and then it gets so fast that it's funny.

458. But you actually have to keep up with it.

459. Okay, here we go.

460. Punch and punch and hit and head.

461. Punch and punch and hit and head.

462. Cute. Five, six, seven, a little faster.

463. One and two and three and four, five—

464. She's like, hold up, hold up.

465. Let's try that again, Willow.

466. Oh, fuck, what have I gotten myself into?

467. Miss Talent!

468. Yes.

469. - How tall are you? - I'm 5'2.

470. You are not, you liar.

471. I am!

472. There's only one way to find the truth.

473. - I'm 4-11. - Oh, my God!

474. You're 5'2.

475. Before I even teach you anything,

476. - I just want you to show me... - Okay.

477. what you think Talent would give.

478. One. Hey, hey, hey.

479. Spice it up! Spice it up!

480. Yes!

481. Punch the ghost, punch the ghost!

482. And she's not even warm yet, okay?

483. Oh, yes, ma'am.

484. So when you're working in a group,

485. of course you wanna take as much attention and spotlight

486. when it's your turn.

487. But it's also equally important to blend in with the group

488. and know how to support the other cast members.

489. Absolutely.

490. Jorgeous is really good at just randomly dancing,

491. not choreography.

492. Two, three, pop.

493. Oh, shit, wait a minute.

494. I'm very interested to see

495. when it comes to lots of choreography,

496. one song after another,

497. how that's gonna retain in her head.

498. One, two, three, kick, four,

499. step, passé, hit, passé, hit.

500. Nice!

501. Jorgeous, your passé is on fire.

502. Mama Z.

503. I'm just gonna throw you a couple of eights,

504. and we're just gonna see where you go with it.

505. Great. My goal is to really flip this around

506. and find some way to make this character pop.

507. And eight and—great.

508. And I'm gonna give you a little bit more,

509. because you can handle it.

510. Miss Camden, she has that ballet background,

511. and, bitch, Camden is eating the arena.

512. - Wow. - Whoa.

513. Rrr!

514. Mama Z's also, like, really nitty gritty and rough.

515. She actually has a beard.

516. Yeah, okay.

517. You're so naturally poised from all the ballet training,

518. it's gonna have some more grit

519. and some more masculinity within the femininity.

520. So bring more of that to the table.

521. Okay. I'm gonna bring my newfound butchness.

522. I'm gonna bring a little bit of Shakespeare,

523. a little bit of Freddie.

524. What is happening to me? I'm becoming a man!

525. Out and move.

526. Amazing!

527. Are y'all shitting yourselves?

528. I would be.

529. You're great. You're phenomenal.

530. Lady Camden nails it,

531. so it's up to me to really deliver

532. is the only way to win at this point.

533. Okay, ladies, so take five, and when you come back,

534. I'm gonna teach you some square dancing moves

535. that I learned when I was at the Grand Ole Opry.

536. - Oh. - Oh.

537. Yee-haw.

538. The only queen that I'm very, very concerned about is RuPaul.

539. Because, honey, she's gotta make a decision

540. amongst all these queens,

541. and I don't know how that's gonna happen.

542. Coming up...

543. - Bosco! - Yeah?

544. Star of the Moulin Ru.

545. Are you nervous at all?

546. No.

547. America, get ready.

548. This is going to be epic.

549. Today we debut Moulin Ru, the Rusical.

550. America, get ready. This is going to be epic.

551. So did you guys rehearse last night?

552. Heck, yeah.

553. Yes, that was a must.

554. Baby, I have rehearsed this choreography

555. over and over and over again.

556. I got to Debbie Allen my own self.

557. I'm telling myself fame costs,

558. and this is where you start paying... in sweat!

559. How are you feeling after everything, like—

560. Honestly, after everything, I feel a little bit embarrassed

561. that I even, like, went as far

562. as to, like, start an argument with someone over it.

563. I don't like to get messy and shit,

564. because I am, after all, a fucking lady, you know?

565. I don't know if being stubborn is, like, worth it to me,

566. to be, like— to win an argument.

567. As much as I wanna, like,

568. be a loud voice and put my foot down,

569. it's not in my nature to be, like,

570. a mean, like, aggressive bitch about it.

571. You know what I mean?

572. This might have been a blessing in disguise,

573. because I'm really kind of getting into Mama Z.

574. It's kind of fun to imagine that I own this club, you know?

575. Come to my club!

576. Pay me money and watch my bitches dance!

577. There's a way to just kind of go, okay,

578. how can you make lemonade out of juice or whatever it is?

579. Make lemons out of lemonade.

580. What?

581. No! What's the thing?

582. Make tea out of lemonade.

583. Yeah.

584. I'm excited.

585. Me, too, my love.

586. I grew up doing, like, musicals and plays and stuff.

587. That's kind of really where I felt the most comfortable

588. when I was in school.

589. I never really got into

590. that whole musical theater kind of stuff

591. because I just think it's so annoying to me.

592. Not gonna lie.

593. What was that, Miss Jorgeous?

594. It's, like, so, like, annoying to me, like—

595. What's annoying about it?

596. Just, like, the whole singing and, like,

597. All, like, happy and shit.

598. It's just like, no.

599. I don't want none of the musical theater gays to come after me,

600. but honestly, I'm not a fan whatsoever.

601. Singing all the time, I'm just like, no.

602. I like that club ratchet shit.

603. - Bosco! - Yeah!

604. Star of the Moulin Ru.

605. Are you nervous at all?

606. No. I don't know.

607. This just feels like what I've, like, been working to do.

608. Didn't you grow up dancing?

609. I did. So I grew up

610. doing, like, tap dancing when I was younger,

611. and, like, my grandma was also my first dance teacher.

612. Oh, I love that!

613. She was trained to be a Radio City Rockette type of thing.

614. - So she was, like, kicks? - She was, like, the kicks

615. and, like, the Fosse and all that good stuff.

616. Oh, this is just great for you.

617. Granny's gonna love this.

618. I know!

619. My grandma was very invested in that dance scene,

620. so I grew up watching dancers.

621. I was taught that Ginger Rogers

622. had to do everything that Fred Astaire did,

623. but backwards and in heels.

624. I always thought that that was so much more impressive.

625. I never had, like, a dance background.

626. I just did it in, like, my living room.

627. That's so wild to me,

628. because you are such a fucking good dancer.

629. Do you know Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?

630. - Yeah. - No.

631. - No, you don't? - I don't.

632. You don't?

633. Crouching Dragon—

634. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

635. - Yeah. - What is it?

636. It's a Chinese film.

637. Yes, and, like, they do, like, splits

638. and it's just, like,

639. they're always, like, moving and shit and, like—

640. You'd watch that, like, a million times.

641. Yes, when I was younger.

642. My mom has a video of me, like, doing it with the sword.

643. So that's pretty much how I started

644. to, like, learn how to use, like, my body.

645. I think as gay people,

646. we teach ourselves a lot of talents

647. because we're too scared to learn in group settings.

648. Sometimes we're really self-conscious about things,

649. so I think it's really cool

650. that the thing that Jorgeous is so great at

651. she taught herself.

652. I have a similar story.

653. I actually have never taken a dance class.

654. I could tell.

655. Ooh!

656. Remember, but you get one of those,

657. and you just cashed that shit in, bitch.

658. Oh, my God.

659. It feels so weird not having Jasmine here to fight with.

660. Come on, waist.

661. And what?

662. Oh, my God.

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

664. Hey, sister, soul sister, it's Michelle Visage.

665. Now, "Visage," is that French?

666. Yes, it means, uh,

667. "She who loves leopard prints."

668. Hmm.

669. I thought it was "Slut who loves leopard prints."

670. And the hilarious Ross Mathews. Hi, Ross.

671. Ru-lez-vous coucher avec moi, c'est soir?

672. Wait, what did you just call me?

673. I don't know.

674. And it's the amazing Andra Day.

675. Welcome to the show.

676. Thank you so much for having me.

677. I am so excited to be here.

678. Are you ready for a Rusical?

679. Abso-Ru-tely.

680. I'm not sure.

681. Now, this week we challenged our queens

682. to put on a show

683. in the all-dancing, all-lip syncing Rusical

684. Moulin Ru.

685. Racers, start your engines, and may the best drag queen win.

686. Coming up...

687. Let's light this bitch up.

688. Okay!

689. Michelle, I gotta tell ya, these are great seats.

690. They must have cost you a fortune.

691. Oh, uh, Ross is treating us.

692. Oh, shh, shh. It's starting.

693. Welcome to the Moulin Ru,

694. where drag rules as king, queen,

695. and everything in-between.

696. This is a story about love,

697. my love for a queen named Saltine.

698. - Aw! - Poor, penniless fool.

699. People don't come to the Moulin Ru looking for love.

700. They come for Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve,

701. and... line?

702. Talent!

703. Talent.

704. Now performing their hit single,

705. "Jaloux de ma Gelee,"

706. or as you Americans would say,

707. Don't Be Jealous of My Jelly.

708. Any here tonight, boys?

709. And now, the Moulin Ru proudly presents

710. the star of our show, Saltine.

711. Saltine, the rich duke was in the audience,

712. and he wants to meet you.

713. With his money and your beauty,

714. the Moulin Ru will be saved.

715. Wait here!

716. Saltine,

717. you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.

718. Come away with me, and I will love you forever.

719. Wow. This is all happening so fast!

720. What could go wrong?

721. Ah-choo!

722. Are you okay?

723. Um, it's just... allergies?

724. Jason Momoa!

725. - Oh, wait. No, you. Sorry. - That's okay.

726. Saltine, may I present to you

727. the wealthy and generous Duke of Dickington?

728. Enchanté. Hey!

729. I thought you said she was single

730. and looking to mingle!

731. Saltine, you have a choice to make,

732. and don't fuck it up.

733. Why does life have to be so binary?

734. Can't I have both?

735. Ah-choo!

736. You should really get that checked out.

737. It's just allergies!

738. Saltine, the answer to your problems

739. is in this little bottle of absinthe.

740. - Bottles up, bitches! - Bottles up, bitches!

741. Are you my inner saboteur?

742. No, my dear, I'm your hallelu-cination.

743. Now do you get it?

744. No. Can I hear it again?

745. Fine.

746. Now you have to get it.

747. I am so sorry,

748. I wasn't listening.

749. Oh, God! One, two, three, four.

750. You get the point?

751. Huh? You still talking to me?

752. Oh, God!

753. Saltine's consulted with the Green Fairy,

754. but the final decision is hers to make.

755. I choose...

756. myself!

757. Ah-choo!

758. Saltine!

759. I swear, if she dies, I'm outta here.

760. She's dead!

761. I'm outta here.

762. You're alive!

763. I told you, it was just allergies.

764. Coming up...

765. I couldn't get enough.

766. I have no words. It is perfect.

767. You could have gone so much further with it.

768. Category is Mirror, Mirror.

769. First up, Lady Camden.

770. You know, if you break a mirror,

771. you get seven years of bad tuck.

772. I am serving you shooting star.

773. I'm drawing some inspiration tonight

774. fromThe Little Prince.

775. I am sparkly as fuck.

776. I feel like a goddess from outer space

777. made completely out of gas.

778. This is Jack Frost's sister, Jackie Frost.

779. Eew, Jackie Frost.

780. Ooh, Jackie.

781. Ooh, Mary.

782. Bosco.

783. She's what you call a chromosexual.

784. My look is Mugler

785. meets Sorayama meets Tin Man slam piece.

786. I'm giving them a whole lot of Linda Evangelista

787. meets just, like, the sexiest little toaster oven

788. you ever did see.

789. I am oiled up to the point that I am my own Slip-n-Slide.

790. Things are moving. No foam here.

791. You know you're a whore if you've got mirrored kneepads.

792. Willow Pill.

793. Now, this queen is a real firecracker.

794. The inspiration for this look

795. was kind of like Elton John, Joan Jett, and Evel Knievel

796. getting into a bunch of fireworks.

797. It's very, like, late seventies rock.

798. I wanna wear this every day

799. for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.

800. She's illegal in 14 states.

801. Let's light this bitch up.

802. Okay!

803. Angeria.

804. More like ho-saic.

805. Baby, I am giving you a galactic mermaid queen,

806. adorned in all of these reflective scales.

807. So I'm making sure everything catches the light.

808. She's giving you a beautiful side cutout,

809. so you could see the shape, honey,

810. that all the girls be mad at.

811. I'm catching the eye from Andra Day, bitch,

812. and I'm like, yes, girl, you see it.

813. Oh, she's shattering the ass ceiling.

814. Daya Betty.

815. Ah, she wants to rock and roll all night.

816. And party every day.

817. I have chosen to do a Kiss-inspired runway.

818. I kind of feel like a shiny, metallic porcupine right now.

819. The base of this outfit

820. is actually made from a reflective vinyl,

821. so I hope I'm just blinding the judges at this point,

822. in a good way, of course.

823. She's a queen that makes you wanna hug her.

824. DeJa Skye.

825. Someone's been self-reflecting.

826. Yes, honey, you better narci-sissy that walk.

827. Am I beautiful? Yes, I am.

828. I'm walking out with regalness, with confidence.

829. I have a holographic kind of cage moment with big shoulders.

830. You know I love big shoulders.

831. I am serving the evil queen of the futuristic Glamazonia.

832. DeJa, you have a little right there in your teeth.

833. Jorgeous as Liza Mirrelli.

834. This look is inspired by Miss Cardi B,

835. and it has a really short, scissored kind of look.

836. It's like my ribcage dress.

837. I'm wearing latex boots, latex gloves, wet hair.

838. I wanted to give the judges

839. something very edgy, dark, and mysterious.

840. Bitch, I'm stomping it out.

841. Oh, my God, you guys, she sharted.

842. Ross!

843. Ooh, check out her rearview mirrors.

844. Yes, honey, objects in the mirror

845. might appear smaller than they actually is.

846. RuPaul; Coming up...

847. You look so beautiful.

848. You came to life.

849. I don't get mirror so much.

850. Well, ladies, the reviews are in.

851. Moulin Ruis a smash hit.

852. You've proved that you're all stars with bright futures.

853. But this is a competition,

854. so we're gonna have to split some hairs here

855. to really decide who is top and who is bottom.

856. First up, Lady Camden.

857. Lady, you had the emcee role,

858. which can be sort of a throwaway role,

859. and establishing a character can be difficult.

860. Somehow you did it,

861. because you were slithering across that stage

862. in a way that I totally knew who you were.

863. We've kind of been waiting this whole competition

864. for you to be able to show us some ballet,

865. and you gave us what you do and what you do so well.

866. I actually danced for, like, 22 years, so I can recognize.

867. I'm like, oh, I see the posture, I see the pointe,

868. I see the bevel, and I love this look.

869. I love the top.

870. You know I always say that.

871. I'm right here, Ross.

872. When I go like this, oh, I love it.

873. Thank you so much.

874. Up next, it's Bosco.

875. Did you ever see Moulin Rouge?

876. - Mm-hmm. - Okay.

877. First of all, you were playing a character,

878. so I was kind of wishing

879. that you didn't do the Bosco eyebrows,

880. because you weren't Bosco, you were Saltine.

881. That already took me out

882. of a full commitment to the character.

883. You could have gone so much further with it.

884. Even the sneezes, the way you were sneezing was too delicate.

885. It wasn't big enough.

886. The thing about the Saltine role

887. is that the story hinges on her giving that extra something.

888. It was almost there.

889. It just wasn't all the way there.

890. This is beautiful in a Mugler type of way.

891. It's stunning, it's gorgeous,

892. but I think you know what I'm gonna say.

893. This is I think the fourth corset/panty/thigh-high look.

894. It's about versatility.

895. Yeah, okay, we've seen corset and panties from you before,

896. but uh, huh...

897. I mean, this is perfection.

898. Thank you.

899. Don't try to give her no big pill.

900. She want a Willow Pill.

901. Can I tell you how much I loved you?

902. Please do!

903. You were like Michelle Visage on a first date.

904. you just kept doing it over and over and over again.

905. I couldn't get enough.

906. To play a character whose energy is dwindling

907. while keeping your energy ascending at the same time

908. is not an easy thing to do, so I was very impressed.

909. Thank you.

910. Tonight, I think this is adorable.

911. It's really rocker chic seventies,

912. Fourth of July celebration.

913. But mirror, mirror...

914. I get the mirror, right? You're wearing reflective pants.

915. You always manage to do it uniquely you.

916. That's a gift.

917. Thank you.

918. Up next, Angeria.

919. Your part in the Rusical was not the biggest part,

920. not the flashiest part,

921. and I saw you keeping your head above water.

922. Like, notice me, notice me, notice me.

923. And I appreciate that.

924. It could have been smoother, but it was really good.

925. And this look is, you know, I have no words.

926. It is perfect.

927. With you, the word is always "regal,"

928. and I think that's a pageantry thing.

929. When you're wearing your crown and you're in your glory,

930. and that's what I got from this, and it's just gorgeous.

931. Drag queens, take note. At home, this is what you wear.

932. This is an iconic look for you.

933. Oh, thank you.

934. Up next, Daya Betty.

935. In the Rusical, you were amazing.

936. It's one thing to be technically perfect,

937. and then it's another thing

938. to have the perfect amount of energy,

939. and you really combined the two in a magnificent way.

940. Small parts are a big risk,

941. because you could just get lost if you don't nail it,

942. and you were able to find the little moments

943. that just took it the extra level.

944. And I love this outfit.

945. I love how shiny it is.

946. Of course, I'm a big Kiss fan.

947. I totally agree with you.

948. I think you look really sharp tonight.

949. Oh, you need to stop it!

950. Up next, DeJa Skye.

951. With these kind of ensemble productions,

952. you need to really fight to be seen in these things,

953. and we were kind of losing you.

954. - Okay. - And then the rap came,

955. and you came to life.

956. Walking the dancers out on leashes

957. just made me so happy inside.

958. I will probably practice it at home.

959. Let's talk about your runway look.

960. I don't get mirror so much.

961. - Okay. - It's pretty.

962. I did wanna go up to you a few times and just go, unh.

963. - Right, the dress. - Yes.

964. And my eye keeps going to where it's bunched up.

965. I don't see much mirror.

966. It's reflective, I guess.

967. I'm getting Cher, Sanctuary.

968. Oh!

969. But I think that about everything.

970. Up next, Jorgeous.

971. Helloteous.

972. - You were Talent. - Yes.

973. It started off strong. You had that funny little boom-boom.

974. That was so funny.

975. You had that moment, and then it was like, bye.

976. You faded away.

977. And it's weird, because when you come out here,

978. nobody can take their eyes off of you.

979. We've all said it week after week.

980. The other girls are probably like, okay, we get it.

981. But when it's not just you, you fade away.

982. There was a disconnect from what your body was doing

983. and what was on your face.

984. I don't know who your character was.

985. This look is beautiful, body is beautiful.

986. I'm so proud of you not wearing bra and panties.

987. It's so different for you, and I encourage you to—all—

988. to keep challenging yourself

989. to bring something different style-wise each week.

990. Thank you so much.

991. All right, ladies, I wanna hear from you.

992. Who should go home tonight...

993. Oh, God.

994. And why?

995. Starting with Lady Camden.

996. I feel like everyone's really fucking strong,

997. which is annoying. Um...

998. Purely based off tonight, I would have to say Bosco.

999. Bosco.

1000. Based off of tonight's critiques and track record,

1001. I would say Jorgeous,

1002. because she's been in the bottom the most out of the girls here.

1003. Willow.

1004. Bosco fought so hard for this role,

1005. and it should have been what was expected.

1006. Angeria, same question.

1007. I am gonna say Bosco.

1008. Daya Betty, same question.

1009. I do unfortunately have to say Bosco as well.

1010. DeJa Skye.

1011. I would have to say Bosco.

1012. - Jorgeous? - I would have to say Bosco.

1013. She really, really wanted this role,

1014. and as she was trying to, like,

1015. why she should, like, win this role,

1016. she was trying to put Lady Camden down,

1017. and it put a very bad taste in my mouth.

1018. And also, if we wanna talk about track record,

1019. she was in the bottom three times in one episode.

1020. All right, ladies, I think we've heard enough.

1021. While you untuck in the werkroom,

1022. the judges and I will deliberate.

1023. All right, now, just between us squirrel friends,

1024. I wanna know what you think, starting with Lady Camden.

1025. Lady Camden in the Rusical was dynamic, enigmatic.

1026. You couldn't take your eyes—

1027. Wait, what did you just call me?

1028. Sorry. It had to be said.

1029. Couldn't take my eyes off of Lady Camden.

1030. Wove the whole story together like a master seamstress.

1031. She performs at such a high level,

1032. she probably would have been great at Saltine

1033. or any character she would have played.

1034. Lady Camden could do that on Broadway

1035. in Moulin Rouge! The Musical.

1036. - She was that good. - Yeah.

1037. Bosco.

1038. She was the star of the show,

1039. and all eyes

1040. should be on her at all times,

1041. and I kept looking away.

1042. I think the problem with Bosco as Saltine

1043. is she was probably gluten-free.

1044. Tonight on the runway, yes, y'all, she looks amazing,

1045. but I've seen this look amazingly four times already.

1046. Obviously, I have not been here the entire time,

1047. but the entire time she was walking down the runway,

1048. I just kept thinking, "Beam me up, naughty.

1049. Beam me up, naughty." I just love it.

1050. Willow Pill.

1051. Willow came out middle of the show

1052. and had a really long number that needed to work,

1053. or we would have been bored to tears.

1054. And it didn't just work,

1055. it succeeded on a phenomenal level.

1056. Angeria.

1057. In the challenge, those smaller parts

1058. can be as much as you make them.

1059. - Yeah. - And I think she did a good job,

1060. but I didn't think she was phenomenal,

1061. and I kind of am used to her being phenomenal.

1062. But on the runway, honey, she slayed it.

1063. - Mm-hmm. - I just love, love, loved it.

1064. Daya Betty.

1065. She was able, in this teeny-tiny part,

1066. to find things that only existed

1067. because she brought them to life.

1068. - Mm-hmm. - I think context is so huge,

1069. and that's really the job of sort of these side characters,

1070. is to really place you in the world,

1071. and she really did that for me.

1072. DeJa Skye.

1073. DeJa was Nerve.

1074. I was like, girl power!

1075. Yes, bitch! It was amazing.

1076. When DeJa was rapping,

1077. I was thinking to myself, she could win this whole week.

1078. And then she comes out in that on the runway,

1079. and I thought, well, she foiled that plan.

1080. I think she had a mirror challenge and she panicked

1081. and she put something over a really pretty black dress.

1082. You know, and you try to sell it with the mirror.

1083. Oh, well, okay.

1084. - Jorgeous. - She is a firecracker.

1085. Oftentimes, for people who are shorter,

1086. it's harder to command attention.

1087. I have to tell you, I was jaw-dropped, absolutely.

1088. She was captivating when it was her turn,

1089. but I didn't get what her character was

1090. when she wasn't the focal point.

1091. Jorgeous was lost for me in this entire show.

1092. When she's amongst people that are as good, if not better,

1093. I think she gets inside of her head, and that's what happened.

1094. All right, silence.

1095. I've made my decision.

1096. Bring back my girls.

1097. Welcome back, ladies.

1098. I've made some decisions.

1099. Daya Betty.

1100. You made us drunk with laughter.

1101. You are safe.

1102. Thank you guys. Thank you.

1103. Willow Pill.

1104. This week you were completely hallelu-cinating.

1105. You are safe.

1106. Thank you.

1107. Lady Camden.

1108. This week the race was tight,

1109. but you pulled ahead

1110. by a hair of your chinny-chin-chin.

1111. Con-drag-ulations. You're the winner of this week's challenge.

1112. - Yay! - Yes, bitch.

1113. I won!

1114. Yes, bitch!

1115. You've won a cash prize of $5,000,

1116. and a trip to New York City

1117. to see Moulin Rouge! The Musicalon Broadway.

1118. Thank you guys so much.

1119. I can't believe I won!

1120. What feels good about this

1121. is that I didn't win the fight with Bosco,

1122. I might not have been the loudest voice in the room,

1123. but I turned that shit out, bitch.

1124. I'm going to New York!

1125. Angeria, you are safe.

1126. - Thank you. - You may join the other girls.

1127. Thank you.

1128. Bosco.

1129. Your performance was nothing to sneeze at,

1130. but the judges wanted to see even more star quality.

1131. DeJa Skye.

1132. As a rapper, you dominated,

1133. but your mirror, mirror look did not reflect well on you.

1134. Jorgeous.

1135. You're a true talent, but you got lost in the chorus.

1136. DeJa Skye, you are safe.

1137. Oh!

1138. You may join the other girls.

1139. Thank you.

1140. - I love you. - I love you.

1141. Bosco, Jorgeous,

1142. I'm sorry, my dears, but you are up for elimination.

1143. I do not particularly want

1144. to lip sync against Jorgeous,

1145. and I'm pretty sure that RuPaul has put herself down

1146. as an organ donor for Jorgeous.

1147. Like, she's obsessed with Jorgeous,

1148. but I need to continue going forward in this competition.

1149. Two queens stand before me.

1150. Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me

1151. and save yourself from elimination.

1152. The time has come...

1153. for you to lip sync...

1154. for your life!

1155. Okay, this isn't my first time at the rodeo.

1156. Lip syncing is what I do, and I'm ready to turn it.

1157. Good luck, and don't fuck it up.

1158. This is the Heartbreak Hotel.

1159. This is the Heartbreak Hotel.

1160. I am feeling frustration, a sense of defiance,

1161. and just giving them these lyrics

1162. as if I was the one that wrote them myself.

1163. There are no weak moments in this lip sync.

1164. Jorgeous is pop-locking it,

1165. and Bosco is giving me the energy that I need.

1166. It is a show.

1167. Oh, my God.

1168. Werk!

1169. Ladies, I've made my decision.

1170. Jorgeous, shantay you stay.

1171. You may join the other girls.

1172. Thank y'all so much.

1173. Thank y'all.

1174. Bosco.

1175. Your fate now rests in the hands of the drag gods.

1176. If you have the gold bar, you will be safe.

1177. Now let's see what you've got.

1178. Oh, my goodness!

1179. You've got the gold bar!

1180. The drag gods have spoken!

1181. Bosco, con-drag-ulations.

1182. You are safe to slay another day!

1183. Oh, my God, to be given a second chance is wild.

1184. And to be given a second chance that wasn't even from RuPaul,

1185. it was just from the universe, is insane.

1186. Con-drag-ulations, ladies.

1187. And remember, if you can't love yourself,

1188. how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?

1189. Can I get an "amen" up in here?

1190. - Amen! - Amen!

1191. All right. Now let the music play!

1192. Next time, onRuPaul's Drag Race...

1193. We're having a good, old-fashioned roast,

1194. and the guest of honor is our very own Ross Mathews.

1195. When I think of the name Ross Mathews,

1196. I think of motels:

1197. always open and filthy as fuck.

1198. Last week I had the dubious honor

1199. of being told that I should go home.

1200. Cool.

1201. There's no punchline to that joke.

1202. It doesn't matter if you just won

1203. or you almost went home.

1204. You have to focus on that crown.
