RuPaul’s Drag Race Recap: “Let’s Get Ready To Jiggle!”
Match One: L.A’s Finest vs. The Bitter Betties
The match sees Phi Phi and Lashauwn wrestling against Latreese and Kenya. The plot for their wrestle-drama? Phi Phi accidentally lets Kenya use some of her hair product, which causes Kenya’s hair to explode into a massive hairball. Fight! Fight! Fight!
During their match, most of the combat involves makeup brushes or powder puffs, and Kenya jumps around like a spider monkey. Just like the WWE, right?
Match Two: DWF’D vs. Thunder Booties
For her team’s intro, Jiggly throws furniture and yells at Willam and Dida Ritz. The Princess gives a dramatic… stare. Their wresting lacks any of makeup-brush weapons and The Princess gets knocked down after one kick. Oh, and Willam loses her shorts at the end.
Match Three: The Knockouts vs. The Bitch Kickers
Their intro scene is all about Sharron and Milan scratching themselves because Chad and LaQueer banged their boyfriends and gave them a bad case of… pubic itch? Not my favorite type of joke, but in the rink Sharron K.O.s LaQueer, by calling her “Kirstie Alley before Dancing With the Stars!” I have to say, LaQueer’s monster-on-a-chain look made this devilishly perfect.
With the wrestling over, the girls prep for the main stage. Jiggly stirs up drama because she isn’t sure about The Princess’s performance. Lashauwn and Latreese continue chatting (do these two ever separate?). LaQueer reveals that she isn’t close to her family, and Sharron drops a comforting line, “We’re selfish, vain, creatures of beauty. And isn’t it bizarre how we make the best friends in the world?”
I full expect to see that line on drag-queen birthday cards by the spring..
Where are the Queerty stories about Zsa Zsa Gobor turning 95? Or SMASH? We need to get our gay on!

I think I’m starting to “get,” and perhaps really love, Willam (If you read this blog this week, I really am loving you, girl! And I’m sorry I called you “grating” last week- spoke too soon!). Chad is also quickly heading up my list, and Sharon has been firmly planted there since the sneak peeks. Ironically, however, it was The Princess who really won me over last night! I thought her meekness (or “zen,” as she called it) was endearing, and I admired her punk rock and uncompromising take on “girly” (more irreverent than Sharon’s!).

Sex and the city outfit? More like sex in the alley! Shoot

Has a big girl ever won? I’m a Sharon Needles fan, but looking at the clips of future episodes on the Logo web site (they are at the beginning of all the entire episodes) I don’t think she hangs around until much longer. But that drama mess Jiggly does.

HAHA! my bye was bitchy because Right before I said BYE, The Princess was asked to lip-sync. RuPaul then told me I was safe and I asked him if i could lip-sync for The Princess because I was the team captain and wanted to take responsibility (I have no clue if The Princess would’ve let me but I wanted to offer). But Ru, without even making eye contact said “You’re going off script” and as soon as he got out the last word i was like ok peace in my head so i just threw out a “BYE” and walked off.
so yea. My tone was very pointed when i said Bye but i was just looking to get the fuck into the safe zone behind the runway

SPOILER ALERT
@7 Mark No, if you count unique outfits on the Main Stage in the previews, it looks like Sharon has around 5 with Jiggly having 4. Not scientific but a factor. I count 5 for Willam, 6 for Chad and Latrice …but they don’t always give it all away. So Sharon at least makes it to 5 or 6 weeks. I’d say with her exuberance and positive attitude on Twitter and FB, she did VERY well in this contest.

I was actually bored with last nights episode.
