RuPaul is set to announce the Season 4 winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars tonight. The All Stars franchise is notoriously tricky. Nothing in Season 1 made sense. Season 2 was plagued by favoritism (RoLaskaTox) and bribery (insert snake emoji). In most circles, it’s still not safe to mention Season 3. What does that leave for Season 4’s legacy? Farrah Moan fell. Gia Gunn was a bully. Production ruined Snatch Game. Latrice Royale was delusional. The Lady Bunny made her Drag Race debut. The bottom four tore up the runway against the eliminated queens. Then pulled on our heartstrings with their irl friends and family. It’s time to move past last week’s snooze fest (and Manila Luzon’s controversial elimination). RuPaul is throwing a party and I RSVP’d for you. Warning: This post (and comments) could contain Drag Race spoilers
Tonight, the All Stars vie for a place in Drag Race Hall of Fame. In order to keep those residual checks flowing, the final four queens must write and perform a verse for RuPaul’s song “Super Queen.” And the night won’t be complete without a visit to the “What’s the T” podcast with RuPaul and Michelle Visage. Because branding is what? Fundamental.
I’m on and in The Tuck’s corner!
Loving the entire top 4. I don’t think Trinity will win it, despite being stellar, as I think Ru needs/wants diversity in HOF.
I am still bitter about AS3. #teamshangela
I hope Ru fights temptation and doesn’t include any scandalous finale trickery.
OOOOOH!!!!!! Both won!!!!
All Stars 4 should have ended with Manila’s elimination. Instead we got another boring episode followed by a cop-out crowning. Season 4 legacy = yawn.
I guess it’s time to turn my attention (and hopes) to Drag Race 11. Tune in Thursday, Feb 28 for a whole new crop of queens. I’m going to do a deep dive on the new contestants. I’ll let you know what I find.
Watching it now on demand…haven’t read the post or comments. Be back after i’ve seen it all!
All Stars is ruining Drag Race.
The queens are too afraid of the fans, their image and backlash. Heck, that’s probably why Ru doesn’t eliminate the queens himself.
True winner is Manila, followed by Trinity.
Monique has gone way up in my book, Monet way down.
What a dumpster fire this season turned out to be. Congrats All Stars 4, you’ve officially beaten All Stars 3 as the worst season ever!
I would have been fine with any of Monet, Trinity or Naomi winning. I am not okay with a double winner. That detracts of both of their wins. You can tell they didn’t plan it either as there was only one crown and no one got to put it on.
Lady C force me to watch this show and it was an Allstar season that I watched first. It was a great season. There were huge productions. It was like a Vegas show, At least for the first few episodes. Then there was unTucked afterwards (that might have come later) and it was really fun to watch.
I was SO LOOKING FORWARD TO VALENTINA! And she should have gone home even before she did. Then when Manila left, it was all over really. The challenges get stupider and cheesier every season. I think the guess what I am sitting on challenge was one of the worst. The acting challenges are generally bad. They need more things like Snatch Game or Hollywood squares or to tell the truth or some other sorts of games where they could play celebrites on game shows. Family Feud or something.
And then more dancing and singing and backstage banter. We need way less RuPaul commercials. It’s fine to have them it is not fine to make the entire show revolve around them.
I hope season eleven is better. And if it isn’t I hope we have more people in comments to bitch about how much it sucks.
Either way, Lady C’s comments will be the best part.
Just wanted to say thanks for recapping, Lady C!
The finale was disappointing but I’m pretty sure I’d have felt that way about anyone other than Manila winning. Logo is running all 10 previous seasons starting next Friday morning so maybe I’ll just take myself back a decade and binge some of my favorite episodes as they air. Thanks for recapping Lady C
thanks for the recap, Lady C.
I’m glad Monet & Trinity both get money.
I don’t like the way the other contestants get to vote off someone for the challenges.
I think the choreography was too difficult. Let the back up guys do the crazy moves and let the girls face front and sell it to the audience.
