are on the rise, and there have been some extreme examples lately, like a gay man who was knifed and his partner beat up in Birmingham. All joking aside, though, gay hate crimes in the U.K. Ella talks about how she and her boyfriend were walking the dog on their block and someone was yelling at them about being “f-slurs.” It was not Matt Damon, or else she would have turned him into the police. Vanity is talking about how she and her husband won’t show affection in public in her neighborhood, because the people of Brixton would really not like that. In the workroom, the conversation turns really dark. “So let that go and do what you can.” Where was she with that advice in, like, my sophomore year of high school? I would have avoided so much torture and anguish if only Michelle was around back then when I was essentially the same age as Krystal. “There is no such thing,” Michelle tells her. She and Michelle have a great moment when Krystal is clearly nervous and says that she just wants to be perfect. I would probably try a Yoda voice and it would sound like someone stepping on a sick toad.Ĭontrary to them trying to make us think that Vanity and Krystal would be big failures, it seems like everyone is killing it, especially Krystal. It’s also because she had to memorize a whole script of puns and pop-culture gags in about an hour and pull it off seamlessly. Baby.) At the challenge, Michelle is directing the girls and Krystal is struggling with remembering her lines and she tells us it’s because she’s dyslexic. All these years I thought I was third eye blind, but it turns out that my life is much more than semi-charmed. Maybe I have some sort of third eye that lets me sense what drag queens are going to do. I knew they were going to pull it out, though, and I can’t say why. They should be brickin’ it.” (The English-to-American dictionary says that “brickin’ it” means “shitting bricks.”) Across the room, just out of sight, Vanity and Krystal are like. While they’re preparing, Ella and Kitty are sitting around being like, “Oh god, these other girls are freaking screwed. Kitty casts herself in the lead, Ella as the villain, Krystal as an even gayer C3-PO, and Vanity as essentially a talking head that is supposed to be Baby Yoda. This is why Kitty is the best and I will always love her: She created her own little sketch out of the process and gave us some fresh entertainment when the show is relying on the same tricks. Instead she puts on a red curly wig, a pair of spectacles with a librarian chain, and decides to start the Kitty Scott Casting Agency. She can’t decide whether to be nice and give everyone easy roles or to screw her competition by giving them shitty roles. Since she won last week’s challenge, Kitty gets to cast the roles. It’s an acting challenge for Bra Wars, the RuPaul parody of Star Wars and other intergalactic features, which includes a joke about, “That being one extra terrestrial” that made my dad-joke heart go pitter-pat in my dad-bod body. It’s sad that there was such a non-ending to this episode, because the challenge was quite good. The final four next season will definitely take notice. “Favourable.” - last season also ended without a final-three elimination. Not only were all the critiques favorable - Oh, sorry. Oh, and if you thought that ending - when clearly inferior Vanity and Krystal were called out safe before the clearly superior Kitty and Ella - was meant to be a surprise, well, just like your favorite follow on Only Fans, it was pretty easy to see it coming. This makes this entire episode essentially pointless, since we will pick up next week exactly where we left off. There were no losers, there were two winners, everyone got badges, no one got prizes, Russell Tovey did not take his shirt off and no one got to sleep with him. That was especially true this episode when, once again, the competition went absolutely nowhere. It just stands still, flailing and pointing, failing to surprise us, and then there is the occasional shablam to get the crowd on their feet, but even that feels stale and predictable. is a little bit like, well, watching a bad drag performance. Watching this season of RuPaul’s Drag Race U.K.
