Drag Race España All Stars [S01E04 - Girl Bands Battle] Post-episode discussion thread
The six queens battle in two groups, singing a self-composed song with choreographed verses.
- Everyone did kind of okay in the challenge, I think. Sethlas and Juriji were the ones who stood out the most; Sethlas' push-up(?) dance and Juriji's opera singing were everything!
- The runway!!!! Everyone was incredible, but Hornella's was my fave. When the judges (esp Ana) were fangirling about it, I was like, YES! SAME! ME TOO!!! Haha. Shout out to Pupi as well! Thinking of rewatching Death Becomes Her for the 823884th time now...
- Juriji did soooo good on her lip sync, I was mesmerized! Too bad it seemed like she didn't know her words... Happy that Samantha finished a lip sync with her clothes on, though! LOL
- Sagittaria truly looked happy from the bottom of her heart when her name was called. Good for her.
- Excited for next week's ep! I love Pink Chadora so much, just seeing her on my screen makes me smile.
Okay, gonna talk a bit about all the Sagi drama bc I have Opinions. I personally think Sagi was right in saying that last week's judging was rigged; the outfits that Sethlas brought from home were incredible, but her third, designed look was just okay. Agreed that Sagi's and Pakita's third looks were better than Sethlas', because it was another bald + things glued to a corset look from her... Also, when she smashed the mirror on stage right when the lip sync started, I was like, wtf?? And it seems that Juriji did bleed bc of all the broken glasses :/
(Please don't come for me jdjhfdfd I think she's super talented, I just didn't think she should be in the top last week. She fully deserved the first two top placements!)
The way Sagi stated her thoughts did kind of come off harsh, but she was in her feelings, I totally get it. Which is why everyone ganging up on her, even in the confessionals, kinda left a sour taste in my mouth. And when she wanted to leave, everyone... got angry at her? Girl.
I can't believe this is the thing that made me open that orange site for the first time since the apicalypse 😂 Wanted to see people's opinions abt all of it... And then I saw that apparently Sagittaria tweeted this. She really went off! LOL. But also, this broke my heart :(
I agree Juriji and Sethlas broke the challenge. I think the judges didn't want to repeat the top two from last week so they gave the top placement to Samantha, which was also well deserved (although I couldn't see the stones in her wig, but I'll believe her when she says they were there LOL)
Hornella's runway was crazy good. In case anyone doesn't remember:
Juriji is mesmerizing in general, and her lipsyncs are driving me crazy (in a good way!). She's the best bimbo to have graced the drag race runway ever. In the main challenge when she mixed pop with Opera while the dancers carried her. Bitch, she left no crumbs.
About Sagitaria... I think she had every right to disagree with the judges. I personally didn't. Not all dresses and designs need to be this asymmetric high-fashion haute couture pieces. The thing about sethlas is that she always manages to bring the runways to her own aesthetic, and her aesthetic is good because it is consistent and has a vision. Saying her look was a corset with some glass on is just not seing the editorial decisions Sethlas made and I think speaks very poorly of Sagitaria's eye for fashion. Regardless, as I said, she's entitled to her opinion, but the way she handled everything really gave 3-year old toddler vibes. I don't think the producers asked all the queens to bad-mouth Sagi on the confesionals. The fact they all did goes to show you just what a bad taste sagi's behavior left on everyone's mouth. In that sense I think she has a lot of growing up to do.
Having said that!... I also think she was clearly going through some sort of mental health crisis and seeing her tweets (thanks for sharing btw) I can't help but to feel sorry for her. I mean, this was filmed some time ago, and you can see from the tweets that she's still in her feelings about the whole thing. Imagine being in that state of mind/mood for so long. I wouldn't wish that on anyone, and I truly hope she can find the help she needs to pull herself from that dark place.
About the first tweet... IDK, I don't like when someone takes on the defense of someone else without their consent. I think that if Juriji had something to say about that lipsync she could just say it herself, and if she doesn't, then it's not sagi's place to take on that.
