Comments

Hahaha I get why they didn’t

IHateBerwald

These are questions that need answering!

Joanne Robertson

I’m disappointed they didn’t read this this week cuz BERWALD

Wynnie

Hope you're staying safe girlies.

Narcissa Deville

I’m obsessed with Lexi Love! But turning 30 next month got more scary hearing the queens call her Auntie Grandma when she’s 34

Joni Scofield

Joanne she/her I just want to affirm Alexis from last week when she said Joella Dynasty. That seems to be her username at least on IG. I am not sure if it is a drag surname or or just her brand identity but you're not making things up Alexis!

Joanne Robertson

Yeah I can’t find anything about it anywhere

David Savage

andy ;)b, narcissist/monster Lexi love is what 2025 needs.

Andy B (;

Those leavers are not connected to anything and production is 100% pick and choosing

Brendan Barry

Brendan, bored/of/twinks. Stan Lexi.

Brendan Barry

Joe he/him - I cynically feel the dunk tank is as rigged as It's Chocolate 🎺🎺 and it was wild to use one of two chances up front. I don't feel Hormona has much more to offer, I was really looking forward to someone going home. Every season has a bit of Riggery, here we are. Lexi Is Mother!

Joe Weiler

Nick he/him - off topic but..... we need the Gayle King story

Nick

Kyle he/him - Lexi is mother, Joella's delusion is wild but honestly keeps it super entertaining, Hormona I can't get a good read on - she seems a bit delusional also but I'm mostly curious what she's like behind the scenes that gets the girls disliking her so much, Sam gives me Stepford wife energy and I'm terrified but intrigued, lowkey I loved seeing Acacia's ass on the runway but I'm a sucker for hairy butts so maybe just me being horny

Kyle de Arenosa

Sarah she/her Lexi made a comment at the beginning of the ep like “are you guys even old enough to vote” and it made me LAUGH she’s a star and thank GOD shes on this cast

Sarah Angelle

You guys living for Lexi is so validating. I feel the same energy from her that I did from Lil on UK. Go off

Mike Showalter

Isaac, he/him. This season, at least so far, seems to be lacking originality. There were THREE Marie Antoinette’s on the runway, Kori King wore a Monet X Change costume, and Lana started her talent with a big poster of Luxx. Suzie, Lexi, and Lucky, however, are very unique and I love that.

Isaac F Schwarz

Alex He/Him Does anyone else think Acacia Forgot looks like Wintergreen (Peppermint’s drag makeover, Sarge) 😭 Still instantly followed seeing that fuzzy booty, sue me

Alex Baloo

Katharine she/her 2nd comment because I am an opinionated bitch. While, the Badonka Dunk seems reminiscent of the whole "Is it Chocolate?" debaucle (insert silly sound effect here) it does have a bit more going for it. While I wasn't really happy to see Harmona Lisa stay, I was happy to watch Little Michelle fall into that dunk tank. I mean, I love her, but I laughed pretty hard watching her tiny little body fall all that way. Like why is this happening?? And why did they make it so high up?! Most dunk tanks aren't that huge! Right?? I mean it felt giant to me! And like how did they keep that secret from the queens? Like how did the production hide that thing from them during the runways and talent show? All these elements make the whole thing far more entertaining and intriguing than "Is it Chocolate?" (Insert silly sound effect again) Love ya ladies (x2)

Katharine Murphy

Katharine She/Her Totally unoriginal opinion here- Lexi is THE one. She is so smart to make yet another nod to MTV on the runway with the TV on her noggin. And I loooved how effortless and effervescent her talent was even though she was literally flipping around ON SKATES. Gene Kelly would be proud ... I hope. I don't know if Gene was an ally but I sure hope so. Because, damn, was he sexy. AnyADHDway ... I also really enjoyed Onya Nerve's talent performance. The song was catchy and she is adorable. I may be biased because I'm from Ohio snd lived in Cleveland in college. I do wish she could get over this idea that no one likes her or wants to be her friend. I think that's her "inner saboteur" talking there. I'd love to be her friend ... please, Onya, I need friends. Okay that is all .. or is it? Love you, ladies!

Katharine Murphy

Justice for Onya!

Squisha

“Why did I do that?” Ah

Albert Araiza

Might be an unpopular opinion, but… I loved seeing a hairy ass on the runway. And I need to know how Acacia got that makeup brush to bounce up and jiggle. I can’t stop thinking about the mechanics of it all. Was it spring loaded?

Squisha

I wonder if they will bring in more roller queens with the new stage?

Squisha

I agree with that thing Darby said, about that one queen. Im shocked Alexis didnt feel the same.

Caleb Bjork

Kearan they/them. Literally nothing about the show is more true than that tweet from Twink Trash that was like “petition to make 40 the minimum age to compete” HOW are they calling Lexi grandma at 33 💀 Also very random but I don’t love the new stage, it worked for the S16 final with the big choreographed numbers and whatnot but a lot of the talent performances the last two episodes just kinda felt small and like the queens couldn’t fill the space (apart from Mother Lexi obv) Also DRUK/Dragula finale reviews whenst?? 👀💙

Kearan Vayro-Lennard

IMAGINE the sound effects and slo-mo they’d have done if it had been one of the queens’ wigs falling off instead 💀

Kearan Vayro-Lennard

yes lexi yes mother

stupidattractive

Alejandro he / him I get being a little delulu is all apart of having that successful drag performer mentality, but there’s Valentina delusional and there’s Joella delusional where the fantasy is far far far from reality 😶

Alejandro Avellaneda

Ok but make it make sense…….everything

Albert Araiza

Every runway (beside maybe Butthole) was garbage. Also the fact that we are at least getting another ‘saved’ queen is so annoying. On top of I am sure there will be a double shantay (I’m guessing Jewels because rupaul loves her like Jorgeous it seems).

Jared Brammer

Frandy He/Him Ba-Dunk-a-Dunk = Rigor Morris…Thoughts?

Frandy

Owen they/them “Wear an assless outfit and vaguely reference cake” does not a runway theme make. Wtf was that category

Owen Atkinson

Tom, he/him I love that people are obsessed with Lexi. She's amazing and has a great sense of humour. I can only imagine that she'll devour the comedy challenge. I don't know why almost all of the queens don't like Hormona. I think she's kinda sweet and her runways are more interesting to me than Kori's. Just saying, oop!

to.kozak

If lexi is grandma, im a great grandma. Explain to granny when cake became a reference to butts. It wasnt till Acacias furry bottom came out that i realized something did not compute.

Kimrific

I would love it you talk about the lack of depth from the queens… they are way too immature and superficial…. The self producing is too obvious…. We get it according to them they are young and pretty and everyone over 30 is old and gross… what else are they bringing

Arturo Lopez (ArtLo)

Do you think the girls didn't put Onya in the top because of her friendship with Hormona? Cause that's the only reason I could see for them keeping her out of the top, especially considering how the judges were living for her. Lexi confirmed that she is my always and forever. Finally, there's something keeping me from connecting with Kori. I think it's because he drag is good, but... unimaginative? IDK. I want to like her more than I am currently. Maybe it was just a bad run of outfits to start. Sean He/him

Sean

Also, the rating in rate a queen for this episode was CRAZY Like putting Kori last?! And not hormona?? And the fact that crystal ended up in the top like I get she had choreo and a fun song but it was snooze fest up there

Julia

Sam she/her/they Calling Lexi Grandma is insane. She gives fun aunt for sure but jfc she's in her 30s. And I love her. I wish I had a fraction of Joella's delusion. I hope she never loses it. Kori is hilarious. I can't imagine the rest of the girls are not seething over Hormona's save. I love Jewels. And Toot. And Lana too. And Onya. I really love a lot of them this season. I've also gone overboard on listening to other queens' reviews this season as well and it's a party. Trinity and Shontelle's reviews and their takes are very interesting given their insight and connections to multiple girls. Bob and Monet's takes are hilarious as always. Ditto Alaska and Willam. But my heart remains here as always.

Samantha Lienhop

Julia she/her I just want to know what we all think about crystal’s wig… I’m no professional but she looked whack

Julia

Mary-Elise - she/her Lexi Love is one of the most real and genuinely hilarious queens we’ve seen in so long. She’s PERFECT ! she’s my everything. But the fact these girls are calling her grandma makes at the age of 33 makes me wanna kms and all of them.

Mary-Elise

Also, the twist is dumb but since Hormona pisses Kori off so much, I’m glad she will be around for another week.

Reverend JVK-hole

i LIVE for kori she's literally the funniest person alive "the fact that there's a 1/10 chance that hormona can stay makes me LITERALLY want to scratch my eyes out"😭😭😭😭😭 If I were to judge this episode the tops would be Onya Kori and Lexi (runways excluded even tho lexis was my absolute favorite -Hyper

Hyper_d3mon

Overall talent show was better in the first episode, simply because there was a better variety. If you’re going to lip sync, you need to be Lexi love or lucky starzzz, do something we won’t see when you’re in the bottom of an episode. That said, the production quality on these songs is on point this season. Joella honestly telling hormona that she’s in the bottom was fantastic. Acacia’s temu sheet dress with a tic tac toe board was… something

Mason Kaye

Episode 2, the set up for the characters… mean girls, girls who are over it, girls who have rearing bitch face, and the puppet master laughing her ass off. Sometimes I wonder how long I can watch when the strings are so much in view. But Lexi….shes winning already.

Azul means Blue

OK thank you! I thought I was the only one who thought Kori’s Monet references were starting to get weird.

Jenn and Bootsie

He/him. Whos your winner and why is it lexi loce

Luis Miranda

(He)Liam, Do you think that make-up brush stank?

Liam G

They need to stop calling Lexi old 33/34 isn’t old at all the rest are just obnoxiously young 🤣 Also the judges went up for Crystal Envy but you could see her reveal during her talent? Conspiracy theory, do we think this was just gonna be a non elimination episode or only a save cause of Hormona? I low key think it was a non elimination solely because it was Hormona

Vincent

It’s giving soft sculpture 😂

Jenn and Bootsie

Oh, and I’m Jenn (she/her). Bootsie is the dog.

Jenn and Bootsie

(He/him) What do we think of Joella’s drag delusion? And people calling someone in their early 30s GRANDMA? I’m one foot in the grave apparently.

Sergio Lopez

Jae, she/her I remain obsessed with Lexi, she had the only real talent I went up for this week. Lydia's "I'm not a fan of boring drag" was line of the week though, I was cackling! I'm happy Ru loved Onya's song because she's so charismatic to me, I hope she sticks around. Joella is insufferable but she's also making untucked more entertaining than it's been in a while

Jae Harrison

Amanda (she/her): Another question...what's your take on Hormona Lisa? Is she being a shady lady? Is she as good as she thinks she is (because Ru invited her personally during her book tour)?

Amanda Rubin

Also TS Madison should be a judge every single week! So much funnier than the "hilarious" Ross. Sorry 🤷🏻‍♂️

Justin Pitt

Connor, he/him There was a hot second I thought we could’ve got a double sashay in the Acacia/Hormona lip sync, especially after Crystal and Lexi did so well. It was sooooo flat and I’d never thought I’d say that about a lip sync with a brush up the butt reveal

connorlws

She/They I want to know what prompt the girls were given for the runway! I totally thought we’d be going strong on the 🎂 with hints of 🍑 except we got all 🍑 all the time. Which as a viewer I loved ❤️. I’m obsessed with Lana’s outfits and Lexi’s everything. I’m appreciate that the worst talent of the week ended up I. The bottom. I understand strategic voting. But Hormona was BAD. Also do we think they have a deal with Nexflix? We’re 2/2 for references. Love you both can’t wait to watch your review ❤️❤️❤️

Anika Knight

Amanda (she/her). What's your take on Lana saying she is an adult and open to criticism but then seems perturbed when Joella told her she didn't think her talent wasn't all that great. Is Joella being a sister, or is Lana taking things too personally? IMO, the way you react to things depends on the day. I may be really confident and open to hearing criticism, but other days, I could be a bit emotional and take things beyond the intention.

Amanda Rubin

I can’t put my finger on it, but Crystal Envy reminds me of Ariel Versace. John - he/him.

Auntie Chan Stan

Hey divas, here's my thoughts: - I feel like the queens from episode 1 weren't as memorable? That or the edit for this episode made me feel like they were just background characters... - I don't think Hormona Lisa was ready for TV. They're trying to make her have a storyline but I feel like we're getting nooch in terms of star quality - Lexi is a star, and if she's old, I'm ancient - Crystal has a beautiful face but her fashion so far has been unforgivable - Fantastic winning lipsync between Crystal and Lexi that made up for last episode's -I'm think I might get sick of Kori referencing Monet. Who is she on her own? - I was worried after the first episode but now I'm way more invested in this season Justin (he/him)

Justin Pitt

I’m sure they’re lovely, delightful queens in real life, but both Acacia Forgot and Hormona Lisa need to go. Bless their hearts, but they’re just…bland. That lip sync was a YAWN, especially coming right after the fire lip sync between Lexi Love (mother) and Crystal Envy. Also, I thought Onya Nurve’s rap was really good, like something you could actually hear on the radio, and she should’ve been placed much higher. Oh, and Joella’s drag delusion is next level and I am OBSESSED.

Jenn and Bootsie

Ben – He/Him/Bottom These talent shows were much better. Enjoying Lexi and Onya so much. Joella is so delusional and Kori and Lana reading her in Untucked made me laugh I also saw someone on twitter say that Joella is giving Serena Cha Cha levels of delusion and that's so tea.

Ben Schonhorn

Joshua, he/they Lexi Love Davenport Couleé O'Hara Colby Bevels Cartwright is such an icon and absolutely murdered this week. Can't wait to see her run away with the crown. I second Jordan's comment and need to be in her blunt rotation. I'm honestly ready for Kori King and Hormona to throw hands and give us the Inside Out 3 Anger vs Sadness moment we deserve. The ice popping off Kori's belt was a paid back up dancer. Am I the only one who thought Crystal's performance wig was kinda a boot? It did not do it for me (tho if we're gonna harp on wigs someone plz gather Joella for hers)

Joshua Alexander

Mike, he/him Overall the episode was fine just like the first one. I had two highlights, the first being Lexi. Her talent show performance, her lip sync, her outfits, her confessionals, just Lexi in general. Love, love, love Lexi Love. The second highlight was that ridiculous twist at the end. So stupid and it was hilarious to see all the queens shocked that no one was going home. No one goes home on the premier episode(s) anymore. Irene is the one recent exception and the show knew they made a mistake with the fan reaction her elimination got. One last thing, Michelle’s wig falling off in the tank… *chefs kiss*

MikeF

Nick- He/Him This talent show was pretty meh. I wish they’d ban lipsyncing to original tracks. It gets so boring until someone STELLAR AND PERFECT like Lexi comes along and switches it up! Also, the runways were so underwhelming- too many featureless padded asses. Not the best episode but I’m living for the Hormonaness of it all- the girls are angry!

Nickolaka

I am a big defender of Acacia’s talent show performance, so Sam hyping up her “authentic country” number and then delivering *that* was a huge disappointment. A cowboy hat and Alabama ID does not authentic country make. Lydia continues to be a fave for ranking Sam last lmao Crystal’s performance was one of the mid-est talent numbers I’ve ever seen on the show. She wasn’t bad, but there was no emotion and the outfits were crunchy. I would have much rather had Kori in the top 2 with Lexi. That lip sync would have ate. Lexi continues to mother to unprecedented levels. She has such a refreshing energy (especially in confessionals) that feels pretty different from any other queen on the show. I remember having similar feelings about Mirage, but I trust that Lexi can and will make it further (but also justice for Mirage). And Suzie Toot continues to endear me way more than expected. Her runway was hilarious and such a fun twist on the theme. I did not expect her to be so at-the-center of the werkroom conversation at the top of the episode. She seems super confident in herself and her drag character despite being so young, and given that she does a style of drag that’s less conventional, I think that’s so admirable. End of yap. Love y’all and can’t wait for the recap. Everett (he/they)

Everett Vereen

Darrian he/him I feel like joella is the realest and when she looked to make sure know one was near to tell hormona she thought shed be in the bottom, TO ME, PA DE ME, it felt like she didnt wanna laugh in her face for how she was about to respond. I think shes REAL.

Dairy Ann

it/that Obsessed with Sam Star’s beautiful face, BUT I agree her drag seems a lot older than she is. So far it seems like she’s just packed Trinity’s old pageant costumes for her package. Love for queens who recycle and reuse drag, but she could have modified the drags into a fresher take to fit her persona. Her talent gave toddlers and tiaras and I love it!

Cruz M

Onya’s song was the best but her performance was giving do something charlie but she did say she was new to drag so I’ll give her that. Lana was also giving do something charlie. Lexi chewed. Sam did alright didn’t care for the song; death drop was kind of bad. Crystals performance wig was diabolical. Ru should’ve sent Hormona home in the middle of her talent show. Kori did okay.

diego

Oh I’ve been waiting for this- Jacob, any/all- The girls are very thirsty in the workroom this season 👀 I’m just a lil ole’ gay, so don’t mind my fashion advice, but overall I thought the runway was kinda whatever, I think cake could’ve been so big and colorful and fun. That being said, my fave runways were Lexi and Lana My 2 favorite talents were Lexi and Onya, but let’s be real Lexi was the best overall 👏🏼 standup should be banned from the talent show lol. I lived for Lexi and Crystal’s lipsync. And of course we can’t forget the new dunk tank- maybe the most elaborate production shenanigans we’ve seen yet. They said “RuPaul did in fact hand pick this queen, and she will NOT be the porkchop of this season” 😂 Sorry for the rambling lol 🖤

IAmJxxb

John. He/Him I just have questions: Is it time to retire the talent show format when 90% of them are just dancing to a track? Why does Sam Star’s whole thing make me irrationally angry? Why does everyone (including Ru) talk about Lexi like she’s 62 years old?!

John Mack

The old comments about Lexi really had me thinking she was old enough to be my actual mother. Imagine the cackle when I googled her age to see she was born the same date I was. 🤡🤡🤡 #humbled #fuckS17queen

Reverend JVK-hole

Lexi is already my winner, I mean that skate number!!!!! Was also happy that Onya had a little rudemption from that look last week with her performance… it was cute. What on earth is this badonk-a-dunk thing/are we seeing it again…? Thomas he/him 😁

Mister Princess

She/they The clocking of Joella’s wig. Girl. Idk her edits are fab this season. Great great job! Lexi Love is everything! Love her pink blush/highlighter too. I want her to win 😭💕 But what is Hormona’s edit omg. She can’t be that annoying in real life to the girls!

Erica ☆

Wynnie - She/Her Kori King is my Chanel O’Conor right now because I can’t stop mentioning her YouTube channel to people. She has a DragCon UK vlog up that I’d definitely recommend checking out

Wynnie

Dan and Peter (hes and hims). We love the Xanadu on Steroids energy of Lexi. Starlight express!!! She was giving all the fun and energy. We loved it. Also just a moment to say Love you guys!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Daniel Mark

Sometimes two white girls can surprisingly slay a song by a black woman. Sometimes they can’t. Tonight we saw both outcomes.

IHateBerwald

As expected Lexi Love is giving MOTHER, not grandmother. The lever twist felt like it was def rigged to save Hormona. Acacia had the best runway and I'm not just saying that bc I love a peach fuzz. Hormona is showing us that trans women can also be annoying (cue in Darby saying Alexis has already done that). Lexi and Crystal surprisingly ATE down with Alter Ego, and we need a rudemption for that Yes And? lip sync. Once again, I am contestant #1 David Rocha, any pronouns, thank you esteemed panel of judges.

David Rocha

Donut (he/him), im kinda obsessed with how obvious the production is with the michelle dunk lmao like of course they’re keeping the girl that’s “rupaul’s chosen” longer than two eps 😅

Donut

Danny (he/him) LEXXXIIIIIIIIII!!! Loving her a lot and I get annoyed they call her auntie grandma when she’s only in her 30s, also Arriety saying lucky could PAINT ALL OVER HER?? 👀👄👀 and Sam star is giving Missi Pyle (the woman who gets run over by Octavia Spencer in Ma)

Danny

LOVED Lexi this week, so excited for the rest of the season. But what in the hell is this Mario Party minigame-ass twist?? Charlie he/him

Charlie Tractor

Josh, he/him The back of joella’s wig was just INSANE!! I was shocked

Josh Z

Jordan, he/him I am deeply in love with Lexi! I need to smoke a blunt with her. Also after untucked I’m expecting quite a few fights this season!
