did vanessa ever reveal or share what the rest of her runway looks were going to be for her first run in s10? im really curious to know what her feather and glitter runways were going to be.

[barelyretro]

they recorded on the mainstage runway a few times rofl, i was like the hell it looked so odd

Why aren’t they recording their verses in a studio?? Why are they in the untucked area backstage lmao?

[barelyretro]

so here’s a closer look at the bodies and faces (taken from @the_original_she_rex) on instagram

[barelyretro]

i loved her reaction to plastique comforting rajah after she came for her. like bitch, you’re holding her hand after she read you for being a pathological liar? what the f is going on rn?

Brooke Lynn Hytes being a whole mood in Untucked.

Drag Race sending Nina home just because she doesn’t do “fashion” drag is so sad to me… Her drag is campy, her drag is comedy, her drag is activism. She doesn’t have to be able to pull out fashionable looks on a runway to be an iconic drag queen, and it sucks that someone like her with so much heart and so much talent will NEVER win this show because they place so much emphasis on “fashion”

WELCOME TO THE ROYALTY OF RUPAULS DRAG RACE:

TRINITY THE TUCK AND MONET X CHANGE!

[barelyretro]

s6, 8, and 9 had the best acting challenges. 

“whats a delorean? im a vegan not a virgin. KEEP UP!” “bitchin!”

“i know yall aint startin this WHITE ASS party without me!”

“where the cool people at... this school?” “im. gonna. SEX. you. up!”

:/ the final 5 acting challenges from as3 and as4 were just confusing and boring… not funny. ugh

[barelyretro]

it’s no different than a lip sync for your life elimination in a regular season, you can be a clear frontrunner all season win lots of challenges but if you slip up once near the end (think shea in the makeover challenge and had nina turned it out) your track record is irrelevant, it’s all spontaneous. should ru say oh shea i cant let nina stay and you sashay because youre a frontrunner... bottom line is never let yourself get in the bottom, if youre up for elimination youve provided a reason to BE eliminated. i love manila and she deserves the crown tho, dont get it twisted, but all is fair in AS... except shangela’s loss in AS3. 

Manila being in the bottom for the first time and being send home is not fair and all stars 4 is garbage

Aladdin and Jasmine (1993)

[barelyretro]

Barbie logos throughout the years. Which one is your favorite?

[barelyretro]

You will never be in the top if your partner clearly outshines you, even if Naomi was GOOD. Manila was outperforming her and anyone could see this, that never looks good on your part. They told Trinity that, you didn’t want to outdo Valentina but she didn’t get the memo and ended up outdoing you in consequence, regrets? I think Naomi did great, the thing I liked more about her performance than Manila’s was Naomi’s lines were wittier and sharper, whereas Manila’s delivery was better. Different strengths. 

Damn why do the judges keep glossing over Naomi like that??

Like I understand her runway in snatch game wasn’t really boots, but like…. she was really funny this episode?? I legit thought she was way funnier than Manila and I was so taken aback when they cut in the edit of Trinity or whoever saying Manila was outshining her

And I think that Manila and Monique were super good this week but it’s like Naomi has also been doing really well but is being skimmed over, it feels like katya all over again tbh

[barelyretro]

And that is why Latrice thought she’d be safe and okay because she was in Monque’s group. It doesn’t matter if I wasn’t strong on my own, my group did amazing. Not even considering they could be judged as individuals. When the other queens were giving her their feedback on her performance I don’t think she was quite understanding

Okay if we’re judging by groups, Manila and Naomi have this so far, if we’re going individually, then Manila and Monique

[barelyretro]

Yes but they sexually exploited the hell out of Gus Kenworthy because of it. Complaints?

The snatch game of love was a flop ru pls don’t do that again

eureka ohara, DR holiday special

1996 Happy Holidays® Barbie® Doll Special Edition Release Date: 1/1/1996

In a charming burgundy velvet coat trimmed in luxurious white faux fur, Barbie® doll welcomes the holiday season. Underneath her lovely velvet coat is a golden-tiered skirt. A gorgeous white faux fur muff and hat match the fur accents at her collar and sleeves.

[barelyretro]

shes the only one staying consistently safe/high, latrice too but latrice is just complete safe. manila, valentina, and naomi are her only competition (also mind you this is AS it’s a top 4 not 3) but manila and naomi seem like theyre gonna be inconsistent, i didnt think manila would ever drop the ball but she did here so i hope this isnt going to be an ongoing thing where she’s gonna be inconsistent, ik not everyone can operate at Dela’s level week after week but trinity definitely seems like she knows how to play the game enough that she wont ever land in the bottom. top 4 is definitely going to be manila, trinity, valentina, and naomi.

Am I the only one absolutely adoring Trinity this season?

Like, she’s so done with all the fucking drama and she seems so focused. bitch came here to slay. Loving her looks and so happy she won the first challenge! She’s in my top 3 for sure💖
