It’s giving me Thierry Mugler meets an Ent from Lord of the Rings (another movie I have on DVD). It’s not just a movie that I still own on DVD, it’s also an iconic reference, and, baby? It’s draaag. A reluctant boot.Īs a PSA going forward, entering in a My Fair Lady-inspired gown is the way to my heart. While I love the idea of reclaiming and embracing her arrogance through the peacock, the shape and execution of the gown is my least favorite of the three looks. However, she loses me a little in her eleganza gown. TOOT, ma’am! I also quite enjoy her red runway, a fun reboot of her denim entrance look. The #BLM lettering is a powerful touch, and it blends seamlessly into the asymmetrical design. Kandy starts the episode on a high note looking the most glamorous she’s ever been in her black-and-white dress. Gottmik may not have left it all on the stage in her lip sync, but when it comes to the ball, she more than leaves her mark. Like the queen of Mars came to Earth to end gender and slap Elon Musk. Her Keith Haring-inspired jumpsuit feels incredibly original, and her finale eleganza is jaw-dropping. James starring in a revival of Kiss of the Spider Woman set entirely in the Jupiter Ascending cinematic universe. Her black-and-white gown calls to mind images of James St. Predictably, Gottmik earns TOOTS across the board in this finale. I call on Congress to act NOW! In the interest of time, word count limits, and bitchiness, let’s toot and boot these twelve (!) looks: I can only imagine that this episode has plunged us into a global Swarovski crystal shortage. And that’s not even including the lip syncs! The runway is, in a word, expensive. This sequence was not teased in any promotional materials, so it comes as quite the surprise when the queens return for not one, not two, but three looks each. The theme of tonight’s finale is apparently drive-in drag #FreeBritney friendship! To that end, we begin the episode with Ru herself blessing us with some lovely, contractually obligated 8-counts, as she step-touches to her single “New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold” (which has some distinct melodic similarities to Britney’s “Lucky”… foreshadowing!) We also have our current reigning Jaida Essence Hall popping up periodically to read the hell out of some ad copy for Bubly Bounce, a very sweet top four number to Bette Midler’s “Friends,” and light of my life LaLa Ri is crowned Miss Congeniality! As far as time-filling gimmicks go, this year’s finale picked some good ones.īut let’s talk about what might be the crown jewel of this episode: the top four ball. And so with a dryer lap, but no less manic a personality, I present to you my final thoughts on season 13 of RuPaul’s Drag Race and our newly crowned queen: God, I miss it! But this year, it’s just me and my lil’ quarantine pod. ![]() We did it!! We’ve officially made it through the longest season of Drag Race herstory and crowned a VERY deserving queen.Īny other year, I would probably be furiously typing this recap into my iPhone from the back corner booth of Pieces, screaming homophobic slurs at the tipsy NYU twinks spilling vodka sodas into my lap. ![]()
