This season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars has undoubtedly been one of the most controversial and fiercely-debated seasons of the entire series. There are rumors and theories flooding the web, many of which center on the elimination decisions that have been made thus far. In a season of craziness, tears, and drama, these are the moments that really made us stop and go 'WTF?!'
(In case you hadn't already figured this out, there will be MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!)
1. Both of Tatianna's eliminations
Look at this extraordinary queen who went toe-to-toe with one of the best lip syncers and performers in RPDR herstory. The biggest injustice of Drag Race has been, without a doubt, Tatianna being sent home not once, but twice, by the same person who was clearly competing in RuPaul's Best Friend Race. The silver lining of all of this is that America has quickly fallen in love with Queen Tati. (She doesn't need a crown to be fierce.)
2. Rolaskatox
There's just so much wrong with this season, and most of it has to do with Alaska Thunderfuck's Rolaskatox-driven decisions (you know, the clique made up of Roxxxy Andrews, Alaska, and Detox Icunt). The producers might as well just put Rolaskatox in the final three and give the crown to Alaska already.
3. Alyssa Edwards' commercial
Can someone please let me know what part of Alyssa's commercial, for the product designing challenge, was funny? When I first watched it, I didn't laugh once because she didn't make any jokes. All she did was dance around. The only thing that even let me know it was trying to be comedic was the forced laughter of the judges. (Alyssa's commercial starts at 1:23.)
4. Alaska's reason for keeping Roxxxy
"And Roxxxy lent me the shirt that I'm wearing. How could I send her home?" Really, girl? You're justifying keeping someone in the competition because they lent you a shirt? Seems like a poor cover for the obvious Rolaskatox alliance going on, or Rolaska alliance, at the very least. Don't get me wrong, though, I can't blame Roxxxy for this. None of this was her choice.
5. Ginger being put in the background
Ginger didn't really have any moments in All-Stars 2, which is surprising considering that she was so largely featured in Season 7 and that she's such an immense talent. It almost feels like the producers weren't interested in showcasing her at all.
6. Alaska touching all of her lip sync competitors
I thought drag wasn't a contact sport! Alaska basically invades her competitors space in every lip sync. She's even gone as far as licking Katya, which sounds funny in theory, but is a lot more gross and disrespectful if you're trying to compete.
7. Katya not winning the Joan Jett lip sync
I swear we've seen most of Alaska's moves before. Plus, Joan Jett doesn't read as camp to me. Katya seemed to embody not only the look, but the song itself. I don't know about everyone else, but I'd love to see the full unedited version of this so that it doesn't reasonably look like Alaska is being set up to win.
