Friday’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race was superb. The truth is, you would possibly even say it was good as… gold.
That’s proper, one of many queens has lastly unwrapped a coveted golden chocolate bar, formally placing that unhappy trombone sound impact out of its (and our) distress.
So, which fortunate queen discovered herself in possession of this life-saving confection? Far be it for me to tug this season out any additional — it was Bosco. The judges weren’t impressed together with her efficiency as “Saltine” in Moulin Ru: The Unauthorized Rusical, nor had been they about to tolerate her giving the identical bra-and-panties scenario that she’s dropped at the runway a number of instances earlier than. That’s how the Seattle native discovered herself up in opposition to lip sync murderer Jorgeous, who finally received their battle to the tune of Whitney Houston’s “Heartbreak Resort.”
However who’s accountable for Bosco’s poor efficiency this week? Was it the work of her inside saboteur, inflicting her to crack underneath the strain of the competitors? Maybe it was merely karma repaying Bosco for being such a diva throughout the casting course of; she refused to present the half as much as Woman Camden, who mockingly received the problem together with her portrayal of the character that neither queen needed. (Click on right here to observe that fiasco unfold.)
“What feels good about that is that I didn’t win the battle with Bosco, and I could not have been the loudest voice within the room, however I turned that s–t out, bitch!” Camden mentioned of her win.
In fact, everyone knows that this week’s actual winner was Leland, who not solely composed among the best Rusicals in current reminiscence, but additionally starred in it. The newfound main man will get additional factors from me for efficiently working a “UK Hun” reference in these lyrics.
Both manner, this was actually a actuality examine for Bosco, particularly when Ru requested the queens which of their rivals they’d ship residence… they usually all picked her. You recognize it’s dangerous when Daya Betty comes away because the “humorous” one of many episode, whereas another person — not to mention Bosco — is taken into account the “impolite” one.
So, sure, we’ve gone one more week with out a queen being eradicated — and I’m certain Daya may have a lot of ideas about that to share — a minimum of we all know that the queens’ one save is lastly out of play. In a season filled with uncertainties, a minimum of we will cling to that.
And regardless that it’s irrelevant, let’s ballot the group anyway: Was Ru right in her try to ship Bosco packing, or ought to Jorgeous have been instructed to sashay away? Solid your vote beneath, then drop a remark extra of your ideas. Which of the seven remaining queens will win this entire factor?
