00:00From coast to coast and across the drag race universe, welcome to the first ever tournament of all-stars.
00:08RuPaul, there's only one word to describe the size of this season's charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.
00:14And that word is gaping.
00:17This competition is going to be huge, and it all starts right now.
00:23Welcome to the stage, bracket number one.
00:25Up first, Brooklyn's finest, Aja.
00:30Jim Carrey better look out.
00:31Well, yes.
00:32Indeed.
00:33Aja's here.
00:34Which bitch wants smoke?
00:35Let's go.
00:38I know I'm beautiful.
00:39I don't need anyone to tell me.
00:41And amazing.
00:43I am a little bit of Harajuku and a little bit of hood.
00:46This girl, she's going to keep surprising you.
00:48I'm also known for being outspoken and speaking my mind.
00:52Cue the tape.
00:52You're perfect.
00:53You're beautiful.
00:54You look like Linda Evangelista.
00:56You're a model.
00:57I just don't feel like you should be Miss Congeniality.
01:01It's funny.
01:01I'm not even really like a villain, but people always look at me as villainous, and I kind of like it.
01:07On season nine, I was a work in progress.
01:10I'm the new bitch in this school.
01:12Aja definitely chose the right name, Princess Disaster.
01:16Next.
01:17Everybody says that when I came back on All Stars 3, I redeemed myself, and they're not lying.
01:24Did she get a jump on that?
01:28This right now is the best Aja has ever loved.
01:31I'm going to make you love me.
01:32This time, in the first ever tournament of All Stars.
01:36Baby, I need to put a crown on my legacy on my name.
01:39Now that is one wide receiver.
01:41And bitch, if you're in my way, is giving roadkill.
01:46Bitch, I'm so nasty.
01:47Oh my God, I love it.
01:51Up next, from the Golden State, Deja Skye.
01:54You know, Michelle, she's known for her curveballs.
01:57Oh, I've heard.
01:58Deja vu.
01:59Bitch, I'm back.
02:0060 pounds lighter, but same great flavor.
02:04I'm so tacky, I love it.
02:07Hit it!
02:09When I watch myself on season 14, I see beauty.
02:12Oh, she's popping off.
02:17I'm a narcissist.
02:19I love watching myself back.
02:20I just want to be his lover.
02:25Deja, you can sing.
02:26You're such a star.
02:27Contraculation.
02:28You're the winner of this week's show.
02:29I was doing well at everything, but season 14 was a stacked cast, and I just think I was
02:36a little bit overshadowed, if you will.
02:39Deja Skye, you are safe.
02:41Safe.
02:41Safe.
02:42You're safe.
02:43But this time, that's not going to happen.
02:46I'm not reaching for the sky.
02:47I'm reaching for the stars, stars, stars, stars, stars, stars.
02:50The all stars.
02:52Deja is here to play.
02:54She's a Seattle swinger.
02:58Irene the alien.
03:00Hello, humans.
03:01I'm Irene the alien, formerly Irene Dubois of season 15.
03:04Help me, my car is filming.
03:08You are a dirty girl.
03:11People know me for being like a sci-fi fantasy queen, and being unafraid to tell people what
03:16I think.
03:16These young bitches think that wearing human hair unstyled is good enough.
03:20I'm loud.
03:21I just run a flat iron through it real quick.
03:23That'll do the job.
03:24I'm opinionated.
03:25I have something that I'd like to get off my chest.
03:26Wait, Irene, you?
03:28That is me.
03:30Oh.
03:32Their tits are out of this world.
03:33Also, I'm known for making a glass of ice water.
03:37Bombed a talent show.
03:38See how easy that is?
03:39Not because it was good, but because it bombed.
03:42It wasn't funny.
03:43It just went from an H2O to an H2O.
03:46I was the first queen sent pack-in, which means that I officially finished 16th place, the lowest
03:52ranked queen in herstory.
03:53It was a humbling experience, but I think everybody is capable of having a bad day, and I already
04:00got mine out of the way.
04:02Michelle, check out her end zone.
04:03Hmm.
04:04So, I'm back to quench my thirst.
04:06She can go all the way, Michelle.
04:08And she has.
04:11Representing Atlanta, it's Phoenix.
04:14The girl on fire.
04:15Welcome to the rise of the new Phoenix.
04:17You may remember me from season Old Testament.
04:20She really stuck that landing, Michelle.
04:22She did.
04:23Back in season three, I was in my little pussycat wig with a little flip in the front, and
04:30then India Fair walked in wearing the same motherfucking wig as me.
04:34Present, honey.
04:35The gag.
04:36Oh, my stars.
04:37Phoenix?
04:39Ahoy!
04:40Aboard in three, two, and one.
04:43Phoenix, you're delivering all your lines away from the camera.
04:45We need to see your gorgeous face.
04:46Okay.
04:47I think then I was so overwhelmed with being on TV and taking directions.
04:52I was brand new to all of it.
04:54I got kicked off the second, and I was very disappointed in myself because I felt that I didn't give my full potential.
05:05After 15 years, I'm so excited this opportunity is here.
05:09The Tournament of All-Stars is a brand new game.
05:12I am a brand new Phoenix, and I want to share that with the world.
05:16I'm excited as fuck.
05:18Atlanta is the city that rose from the ashes.
05:21That's why Phoenix is so significant.
05:23I think you mean rose from the ashes.
05:25Uh-huh.
05:25From the Empire State, Olivia Lux.
05:30This is what we call a hole-in-one.
05:32The diva is in the room.
05:33I repeat, the diva is in the room.
05:35It's me, Olivia Lux, your divalicious diva from season 13.
05:41The queen with a million-dollar smile.
05:45I'm a queen of many talents.
05:47The proof is in the tapioca.
05:48Your girl can sing and dance and act, and obviously, it's her face.
05:56There's a warm feeling that she projects.
05:59You can't buy that.
06:00And that got me very far.
06:01Conjagulations, you are the winner of this week's show.
06:03Top five, to be exact.
06:05However, baby Olivia from season 13 was too soft, baby.
06:09I came here to win.
06:10This sweet little voice.
06:12For me, ended up being a shield.
06:14She is so likable and sweet, but it's starting to be one no.
06:19And I was shielding a lot of people from continuing to get to know me.
06:22Dear Olivia, sashay away.
06:25I did a lot of work on myself since my original season, and this fierce, ferocious, divalicious diva is out of the cage.
06:33I did not come back to play nice.
06:36I'm here for that crown.
06:38Period.
06:39She's not pulling any punches tonight.
06:45She's not.
06:48Our Seattle sis, Bosco.
06:51I see this as a formal affair.
06:53Mm-hmm.
06:54And she's really tied one arm.
06:55Ding, ding, ding.
06:56The gloves are off, and I'm ready to fucking play.
07:01The badass combination of brains, beauty, and body-ody-ody.
07:05Bosco.
07:06I'm known as the demon queen of season 14, but I'm kind of rebranding a little bit, and I've decided that my new title is God's Favorite Transsexual.
07:15Am I allowed to say that?
07:16I'm going to say it.
07:16God's Favorite Transsexual.
07:18From the church of Notre Dame, girl.
07:20She's definitely got her eye on the fashion.
07:23It's a little bit devilish and villainous.
07:25I have been told to go home more times than draw us at white party.
07:2990s day after.
07:30On my season, I was cooking with cunt, for sure.
07:33But, drag race is kind of a trial by fire.
07:35Who should go home tonight?
07:37Bosco.
07:37Bosco.
07:38Bosco.
07:38Bosco.
07:39Bosco.
07:39Bosco.
07:41He was saved by the drag god.
07:43I got the golden chocolate bar.
07:45And made it to top five.
07:46And I'm really proud of what I did.
07:48But my main goal this season is to kick my own ass.
07:51Like, if I was competing against myself in season 14, I want to bury that hooker.
07:55Look at the size of that cigar.
07:57Mm-hmm.
07:57Oh, dear.
08:01My queens, welcome to RuPaul's Drag Race Tournament of All-Stars.
08:06In the preliminary rounds, no one will be eliminated.
08:10Instead, you'll be competing for points.
08:15At the end of this three-episode bracket, the three All-Stars with the most points from
08:21this bracket will advance to the semifinals, where you will face off against the top three
08:26All-Stars from the other brackets.
08:29Oh, my God.
08:30In three weeks, half of us are going to be going to the semifinals, and then the other
08:35three are going to go home.
08:36Baby, we're going to have to fight to the death.
08:38Throw us in the dungeon.
08:39Let's go.
08:40In the final lip sync, SmackDown for the Crown, the top All-Stars will battle it out for the
08:47grand prize of 200,000 duels.
08:51Yes, honey.
08:51Woo-hoo.
08:52Oh, my God.
08:54Yes, honey, that's a lot of full coverage foundations.
08:56Yes, yes.
08:57No shame.
08:58Here's how the points system works.
09:00Every week, the top two queens will receive two points each.
09:04Those two queens will lip sync for the win, and the winner of the lip sync will receive
09:08an extra point, plus a cash tip of $10,000.
09:13Boom.
09:15That's what I need.
09:17I'm about to put on the mouth guard, bitch, the helmet.
09:20I'm ready to tackle these hoes.
09:22But wait, there is more.
09:26An additional four points will be awarded each episode.
09:30Oh.
09:31But more on that later.
09:33Okay.
09:34Are you looking for that?
09:35Oh, my God.
09:36Here's.
09:37Baby, four additional points.
09:39I don't know if I'm going to have to intercept someone.
09:41I'm not physical, but I will be for those four points.
09:44All-Stars, are you ready for the games to begin?
09:46Yes.
09:46Yeah.
09:47Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
09:48Good.
09:48For your first Tournament of All-Stars maxi challenge, you need to put the pedal to the
09:54heavy metal.
09:55Ooh.
09:55As you perform in the music video, winner, winner, chicken dinner.
10:00Okay.
10:01You'll each write your own headbanging verse, and then style your own hairband rocker looks.
10:08Oh.
10:09For those who are about to rock, we salute you.
10:13Oh.
10:13All-Stars, start your engines, and may the best drag queen win.
10:20Yeah.
10:21Period.
10:23Period.
10:24We're here.
10:25Baby, we are home.
10:26What is going on?
10:27Oh, my God.
10:28Ooh.
10:28Yeah, this is Anastasia Beverly Hills over here.
10:31All-Stars season 10 is a Tournament of All-Stars.
10:35Bitch, we've all done drag race before, but not like this.
10:38There's like multiple brackets of competitors.
10:40I'm curious who else is going to be popping up, though.
10:42Is there anybody you want to see?
10:44No.
10:46In three weeks, bitch, only half of us move on to the semifinal.
10:49Baby, this is not junior varsity.
10:51It's giving varsity down boobs.
10:54You hear the audience cheering.
10:58Who is the MVP?
10:59It's criminal that we have to compete with each other.
11:01I know.
11:01I hate to break your heart like this, but somebody's going to help you.
11:04And who fumbles the fuck?
11:06Wait, wait.
11:07Oh, they're breaking jitteretics.
11:08What the fuck?
11:09That's why you can't take these bitches nowhere.
11:11Oh, my God.
11:13I smell a game.
11:15We got jumpsuits.
11:16In our sizes?
11:17Wait, bitch, they made my mad skinny.
11:20This is before and after, bitch.
11:23They said they're only going to be one skinny bitch.
11:25This is my old body.
11:26Mine should be more cinched.
11:28Aja, I think they gave you my mannequin, and I have yours.
11:31Honestly, this is more my size.
11:32No shame.
11:33I think they got them switched up.
11:34The scoreboard, that's all I'm focused on.
11:36I see zero there.
11:37I need about six more with a two in front of that on a check.
11:44Bitch, I'm so sorry.
11:45I keep looking at your body, and it's sickening.
11:48You look over.
11:50I took a huge shit before I put this on.
11:52You guys are in the same ballroom house, McGlairs, period.
11:57I'm like, that's my little sis right there.
11:58Bitch, I would take a bullet for her, metaphorically and literally.
12:01Bosco and I have been friends for seven years.
12:03Yeah, at least.
12:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:04We've been working together for years and years.
12:06We came up in the scene together.
12:07We learned how to do drag together.
12:09Me and Irene go way back, and it feels really cool to have her here with me.
12:13We're going to take care of each other and make sure that we're not setting each other up to fail.
12:17And that could be really, really helpful for an all-star season.
12:21I'm excited to earn the non-challenge win points.
12:24I hope there's points for, like, who can jump the highest?
12:26Who can sneeze the loudest?
12:27Who's the best the furthest?
12:27Who can sneeze?
12:28Oh, I'll win.
12:28Oh, yeah.
12:29Who's the spitter?
12:30I swallow.
12:31And listen, at the end of the day, the best bitch will take it.
12:33And that's how we're doing it.
12:35I'm bitch.
12:36That's bitch.
12:37Miss Phoenix!
12:39Hi, love!
12:40How does it feel to be back?
12:41Like, season three.
12:43Nuts.
12:43I mean, three was 25,000 years ago.
12:4620, like, really?
12:47I mean, it's a completely different ballgame, though.
12:48I'm happy to see you here, bitch.
12:49I'm happy to be here.
12:50I think the queens are all kind of like, season three kicked off second Phoenix is here.
12:55But here's the thing that some people don't realize.
12:57I am fucking fierce, and I have a career that has spanned over decades for a reason.
13:03Put that respect there.
13:06Bosco for my season?
13:07Okay.
13:07She was a competitor.
13:10Yes, she is.
13:10She's stunning.
13:11She's so smart.
13:13She is smart.
13:14Of season 14, me and Bosco really didn't vibe, but she almost won her season.
13:18I should be looking out for this bitch.
13:20And baby, Aja's back?
13:21What?
13:22This her, what, 20th time?
13:23You fools.
13:24You haven't even seen my final evolution.
13:26I've met Aja.
13:27I've never met Irene before.
13:28Okay, me neither.
13:29Irene went home first.
13:30Like, you really don't know what she's fully capable of.
13:33I'm not gonna lie.
13:36I thought she was gonna be like a bitch.
13:37So I was like, I was scared.
13:38I am.
13:38Oh, wow.
13:39I'm scared, y'all.
13:40I contain multitudes.
13:42Have you ever walked a ball?
13:43No, I want to.
13:45You should.
13:45I want to.
13:46What category do you think I would be good at?
13:49Hmm.
13:49Okay, can you do a little performance?
13:52Hands.
13:52Seeing Olivia Lux here, I am through the moon with happiness.
13:57This is someone I was rooting for on her season, and we are vibing right off the bat.
14:01You can spectate a ball.
14:02Yeah.
14:03You can spectate.
14:04That is a great thing, because having friends in this competition is very important.
14:07You need sisters by your side to help you get to the top.
14:10Time out.
14:10Mm-hmm.
14:11You think there's gonna be a, like, alliance situation with these, like, four points, like,
14:16voting?
14:16Like, do you think it's gonna be something like that?
14:18Here's the thing.
14:19Me and you get along with everyone, so I don't see why.
14:21You trying to do something right now, sister.
14:23I mean, if you want to do a little alliance.
14:26Low-key.
14:27I'm down.
14:28It's giving melanin squad.
14:29Yeah.
14:30It's giving.
14:30Let's help each other.
14:32That's how I feel.
14:32I came here to play the fucking game.
14:36No one wants to take their wig off.
14:38Because they're all bald.
14:39My wig is bald.
14:41She's so bald.
14:43Mrs. Potato Head.
14:45They're giving Butch Queen.
14:47It's a permanent ball.
14:48Take it off.
14:50Let's do this.
14:50Let's get our kids.
14:51Let's add some lyrics.
14:52Anybody sing?
14:54Not well.
14:55I do.
14:55I yell.
14:56Our first Maxi Challenge on the Tournament of All Stars is writing and recording and then
15:00shooting the music video for winner winner chicken dinner.
15:02I've only gotten to do one Maxi Challenge before, and I am so excited to once again compete
15:08in Maxi Challenge.
15:09When I found out we were doing this, I was really, really excited.
15:11What are you going to write about?
15:12I didn't get to show a lot on season 15.
15:15So it's sort of about making sure that I'm not a forgettable filler queen.
15:21Performing is what I do.
15:23That's how I make my living.
15:23That's how I keep my bills paid.
15:24So I feel right at home in a performance challenge.
15:27But as I'm looking around the room, I don't necessarily know how I stack up against these
15:30other competitors, because when it comes to Drag Race, I'm the least experienced.
15:34So it's a little bit intimidating, actually.
15:36I'm nervous, because you're the lyricist.
15:39Oh, well, first of all...
15:41How many albums have you put out?
15:42I have two albums, a mixtape and four EPs.
15:45Are you singing or rapping?
15:46I sing and rap, but it has to be metal.
15:48Yeah.
15:49Listen, part of me is like, heavy metal?
15:51Okay, that's not me.
15:52But another part of me is like, bitch, I am not shying away from any challenge.
15:56And if I have to be out there giving, then I'm going to be out there doing times 10.
16:02Do you like rock and roll music?
16:03I love rock and roll music.
16:05It's just on my season, I got eliminated on a rock song.
16:09This is a rock challenge.
16:10Uh-huh.
16:11That makes me a little bit nervous.
16:12I'm not going to lie.
16:13So let's hope.
16:14I'm not a singer at all.
16:15Oh, at all.
16:16At all.
16:16Okay.
16:17But I definitely like the rock and roll feel to it.
16:19So are you thinking of rapping or?
16:20We're just going to see what comes out.
16:23All stars, us bitches, are good at it.
16:26Everything.
16:27Well, most things.
16:30How's it going over here, Diva?
16:30Oh, hello.
16:32Sister, this page is blank.
16:33What?
16:33My pen doesn't work.
16:34Hi.
16:34What's it giving?
16:35What's it giving?
16:36You know, ACDC, Guns N' Roses.
16:38Guns N' Roses, period.
16:39All the good shit.
16:41How are you feeling about it?
16:42I feel really good, I mean, in general, about executing this challenge.
16:46You're a musician.
16:47I fucking love music.
16:49You're a buffaless.
16:50Yeah, if I sing or whatever.
16:51I'm very excited for this performance challenge.
16:53But, you know, I will say, there's a lot of screaming in heavy metal, and I tend to be
16:58more of a soft, demure type of girl.
17:02What about you?
17:02What's the category for you?
17:04I'm kind of like a heavy metal stripper.
17:06Yes, you are.
17:06So this is kind of within the wheelhouse.
17:09So what do you think you're going to express in these lyrics?
17:11How hot and sexy you are?
17:12Your big, juicy tips?
17:13Kinda.
17:14Like, somebody has to.
17:15Like, after I present for my community, my community of women with perfect breasts,
17:19I am feeling confident going into this.
17:21It does make me feel, like, a little bit nervous, because this is so aggressively in
17:24my lane, that, like, if I don't succeed, and if I don't blow this out of the water,
17:29it's going to be like, well, girl, what is it that you do then?
17:31We have three weeks here to make an impression, so you have to swing big.
17:34Right.
17:35This game does not lend itself to holding back.
17:38This isn't a marathon to begin with.
17:39This is a sprint.
17:40You need to blow your load.
17:42Essentially, like, you have to deliver immediately.
17:44Otherwise, you're potentially at risk of falling behind, and there might not be chances to
17:49catch back up.
17:53All right.
17:54A little Guns N' Roses.
17:55A little ACDC.
17:56I feel like any beat you can, like, Vogue to.
17:59Are you going to give up?
17:59Just like that?
18:00Are you giving hands?
18:01Are you giving hands?
18:01We're going to give hands?
18:02Wait!
18:04Hey, Ladykins!
18:05Oh, my God!
18:09This is my very first walkthrough with RuPaul, where I get to connect with her on a human
18:13level, and I don't feel bad for making direct eye contact with her for a prolonged amount
18:18of time.
18:19And I'm so excited.
18:21Irene, you are now Irene the alien.
18:23I am.
18:23Is that correct?
18:23Yeah.
18:24I realized that Irene Dubois doesn't communicate the thesis of my drag.
18:28If you Google Irene Dubois, it's me and obituaries.
18:35So, you were the first eliminated.
18:38I was the fourth job.
18:38So, when you watched your season back, when you watched your episode back, what effect
18:48did that have on you?
18:49It's been pretty heavy.
18:51It's been, like, really hard to trust myself as much.
18:54I took a risk, and it didn't pay off, and so I think the past couple years, I've been
18:59a little bit more hesitant to take risks.
19:00It was refreshing as hell, though.
19:01Yeah, it certainly was.
19:03Not refreshing enough to get you in that top, was it?
19:06Not quite, not even safe, really.
19:07Yeah.
19:08So, you've got some things to prove.
19:10I have all of the things to prove.
19:12Uh-huh.
19:12This almost feels like my make-or-break moment.
19:14Coming back to All Stars, it's kind of a risky decision.
19:17I mean, evidence has shown that I'm not necessarily a great drag race contestant.
19:22So, I need to prove right here and right now that Rube did not make a mistake bringing
19:25me back here, and I am one of her children.
19:29Hi, Mom.
19:30Hello.
19:31Hello.
19:31You look very different.
19:33Well, thank you, you know, 60 pounds lighter, but same great flavor.
19:37That's what I always say.
19:3860 pounds lighter.
19:40Wow.
19:40How did you lose 60 pounds?
19:41I went to Mexico and got it taken out.
19:44It wasn't a very good experience, if I'm being honest.
19:46Okay.
19:47It was a lot of complications, and my body was like, no.
19:51Yeah.
19:51It was crazy.
19:51Like, I legit almost died.
19:53You almost died.
19:54Yeah.
19:54And that was the darkest time, just sitting in a hospital bed alone and being like,
19:58why did I do this to myself?
19:59Yeah, yeah.
19:59And why did you do this?
20:01If I'm being a thousand percent honest, no one went to me and said, you need to lose
20:04weight.
20:04I just got in my head and I overthunk.
20:06Maybe it would help my career.
20:08Maybe it would help my drag.
20:09And in reality, like, I had it all before.
20:12It was just, I still don't know why I did it.
20:15Do I regret it?
20:16I do.
20:17Obviously, I'm thinner, but I almost died on that table.
20:20And it made me realize that the voices in my head can be my worst fucking enemy, and I
20:28want to do better.
20:28Moving forward.
20:29So, for anyone who's thinking about doing that, what should they do in advance?
20:32Research.
20:33Absolutely do your research.
20:34Absolutely go see an actual doctor.
20:36Make sure your body is capable of those things.
20:39Yeah.
20:39Well, you look great.
20:41And fingers crossed you continue to heal properly.
20:43Yes, absolutely.
20:44Now, you felt you were underestimated in your season.
20:46I do.
20:47I mean, I was right, Ru, why did you eliminate me?
20:50I was right there.
20:52But I know what I'm capable of, and I want the world to just fall in love with me all
20:55over again.
20:56Well, I'm looking out for you.
20:57Okay.
20:58Hello, Aja.
21:00Hello, Mother Ru.
21:01Look at you.
21:02You look like an earth mother.
21:03A little spiritual 70s vibe.
21:06No, you gave up drag for a while.
21:08Yes, I did.
21:09Why?
21:10I was having a lot of trouble sort of navigating, wanting to transition, and I wanted to see
21:15what was performance and what was me.
21:18It was really tough.
21:20But when I took a step back, I think it was me seeing Kylie win All-Star 6, and I was like,
21:26oh, shit, like, that could be me.
21:28Yeah.
21:29It clicked in my head, and I said, oh, my God, I'm a drag artist.
21:33I'm a drag queen.
21:33Yes.
21:34This is why I'm here.
21:34To be completely honest, I didn't feel like I kind of deserved to come back to the tournament
21:40of All-Stars, because when I quit drag, the public and fans of the show made me feel like
21:46I took drag race for granted, or I didn't appreciate the experience, which is completely
21:51a farce.
21:52So this time, I have come back wanting to show the world that I did deserve this by winning.
21:58I'm proud of you.
21:59Thank you so much.
21:59Welcome back.
22:00I'm here, bitch.
22:02The girls better be careful, because I ain't playing no game.
22:05They could all get it this season.
22:08Hey, Phoenix.
22:08Hi, Rue.
22:09Now, it was 15 years ago that you were here last.
22:11That is insane.
22:12That's insane.
22:13It really is.
22:14I mean, I was 29 then.
22:15I'm 43 now.
22:17You still work at the same clubs in Atlanta?
22:18I do.
22:19I manage all the entertainment for a nightclub downtown.
22:22You know, I own my own production company, so I throw events all over.
22:25So you're a businesswoman.
22:26I'm a businesswoman.
22:27I love on stage.
22:28I love off stage.
22:29How has your drag changed?
22:31I mean, it's like night and day.
22:32I think then I was very molded after, like, Lady Gaga.
22:36But, you know, now it's like high glam with that southern drag.
22:39But I still love that, like, edge.
22:41You know what I mean?
22:41I think that's why I like this rock and roll challenge.
22:43Have you written lyrics to a song before?
22:45Kind of, yeah.
22:46But I'm not going to be a Grammy award-winning songwriter.
22:49Well, don't say that yet.
22:50Yeah, that's true.
22:52Well, I'm so happy you are back.
22:54Thank you so much.
22:54In this competition.
22:55The fans are so excited to have you back.
22:58Yay.
22:58So I can't wait to see what you bring.
22:59Thank you so much, Ruth.
23:01Clomp, clomp, clomp, clomp, clomp.
23:02Very womanly clomps.
23:04It has nothing to do with the size of my feet.
23:06You look so different.
23:08You look fantastic.
23:10So, you've gone through a physical transformation.
23:13Was it everything you wanted it to be?
23:16Yes.
23:17Being able to, like, show the world who I am on the inside and having, like, the finance
23:22to back it up to really align things, it fucking rocks.
23:26Everybody should have more money.
23:27And I think that would be really, really cool.
23:29Is that your platform?
23:30Absolutely.
23:31Go for Bosco.
23:32You should have more money.
23:35So, here you are back.
23:37You made top five when you were here before.
23:39How does it feel being back?
23:41What I did the first time wasn't enough to win.
23:43And I felt like this just, like, cosmic fear in the back of my brain.
23:48Yeah.
23:48Kind of piloting and inhibiting things.
23:50Yeah.
23:50And I think when they did, like, my facial surgery, they gave me a lobotomy.
23:55Oh, I love it.
23:55So, that's not there anymore.
23:56That's fantastic.
23:58More money and lobotomies for everyone.
24:00I think it would work.
24:01I think it would fix a lot of problems.
24:02I know it would.
24:04I've had several lobotomies.
24:06Yeah.
24:06Absolutely.
24:07Yeah.
24:07Retouched by an angel.
24:08Yeah.
24:08Olivia Lux as I live and breathe.
24:14Oh, my gosh.
24:15I'm back.
24:16I came as quick as I could.
24:17And not a moment too soon.
24:19Are you still living in New York?
24:21I am.
24:21I am.
24:22I live in Brooklyn.
24:23Is it still rough over there in parts?
24:25I would say, I would say yes.
24:26Yeah.
24:27I actually live around the corner from Aja.
24:30Okay.
24:30Well, that's the rough one right there, right?
24:32Now, you all are in the same house.
24:34Yeah.
24:34We're in the same ballroom house.
24:36I love it.
24:36I love Faced, and I want to show what I've learned through my drag with Ballroom.
24:42Ballroom has helped me get my confidence.
24:45Looking back, I can absolutely see that there were a lot of opportunities for growth.
24:50And outside of the workroom walls, I was able to do that.
24:54Don't you have a background in music?
24:56You play the piano.
24:58Yeah, I play the piano.
24:59That's right.
25:00How are you at writing lyrics?
25:01I have a songwriting partner.
25:02He writes the lyrics, and I write the accompaniment.
25:05Okay.
25:06So this will be a task for me because lyrics aren't, like, my strongest music.
25:11So he's the Bernie Talpin to your Elton John.
25:14What did you call me?
25:17Did he call me gay?
25:20Yes.
25:21America, I can't be good at everything now.
25:23Like, come on.
25:24Like, I have to have some relatability.
25:25But in all seriousness, I'm trying my best to slight the lyrics, because this is week one,
25:32and I need to be lighting this stage up.
25:36Zap.
25:40And there you have it.
25:41And there you have it.
25:42Welcome to the jungle, ladies.
25:43Yes.
25:44It is time to choreograph our music video for Winner Winner Chicken Dinner with the sexy,
25:48the iconic, the lovely, Jamal Singh.
25:50This particular performance, it's less about precision of the dance and more about bringing
25:56your personality.
25:57And are you able to pull off this heavy metal type of swagger?
26:00Baby, I have had 15 years of choreographical experience.
26:03I am ready to kill this one.
26:05But I am a bit nervous, because this is our first challenge, and we're only here for three
26:10weeks.
26:11And it's our ass on the line.
26:12As far as movement, is there anything that you feel like you want to bring?
26:16I'm, at heart, a lazy bitch.
26:18Yeah.
26:19I'm, like, pretty privileged.
26:20I don't want to do much.
26:22I am pretty lazy.
26:23I can do some pretty cool stuff, but I would rather just sit around.
26:27Be.
26:28Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
26:32It's a lot more activity than I was signing up for, Jamal.
26:34This is rock and roll, baby.
26:35Woo!
26:36But at the same time, there's a bloodthirsty beast within my brain, and I'm a very competitive
26:41person.
26:42One, two, three, four, five, six.
26:45Come on, Bosco.
26:46I see the demon coming out.
26:48Bosco is not lazy.
26:49It's just her shtick.
26:50She has her eye on the crown.
26:52Don't get it twisted.
26:54Aja, how you feeling about it?
26:55I'm a hood girlie.
26:56I'm from New York.
26:57Okay.
26:58I want to take that and incorporate the attitude of heavy metal, of punk.
27:01Yeah.
27:02But still have some Aja in it.
27:04I think the girls in the room are definitely thinking, wow, yeah, Aja, you're a rapper,
27:08but can you embody heavy metal?
27:10And one, and two, and three, and four, five, six.
27:13Hey.
27:14Good.
27:15Good.
27:16As a matter of fact, bitch, I can.
27:18So what's up?
27:19I just want you to kick, like, if you were to kick this shit out of something.
27:23Say less.
27:24Step one, two, three.
27:27Ah!
27:28Good.
27:29Baby, I'm ready.
27:30I'm feeling like a thundercat right now.
27:31Yeah, there we go.
27:32Come on, thundercat.
27:33Aja has this, like, raw charisma that cannot be learned, taught, or given.
27:38So I'm excited to see what she does this week.
27:41I'm also really excited to kick her ass.
27:44Deja, so your verse has a little more rap influence to it, right?
27:47Mm-hmm.
27:48So is there anybody that you wanted to channel?
27:49I mean, I always want to channel Missy Elliott.
27:51That's just my vibe.
27:52Yeah.
27:53This is a rock and roll challenge, but I think that I can bring in that Missy Elliott vibe,
27:58because she was the first person that I remember with, like, female body positivity.
28:02And I want to bring that confidence to the stage.
28:05Five, six, seven, eight.
28:07Okay.
28:08Okay.
28:09How's that stinking leg?
28:10Feels good.
28:11It's stinking.
28:12Yeah?
28:13Yeah.
28:14Deja's able to do hip hop really well.
28:16But the vibe of this song is rock and roll.
28:18So we got to lay into that pocket.
28:20So it's Run DMC meets Aerosmith.
28:21Absolutely.
28:22Beats Missy Elliott.
28:23Let's do it.
28:24Swag.
28:25Irene the alien.
28:27Woo!
28:28Tell me about yourself, like, how rock and roll are you?
28:31Look at me.
28:32Yeah!
28:33Choreography is not something that I would put under my skills section on my resume,
28:38but I'm definitely a mover, and my goal with this challenge is to make my mark.
28:41I already wasted my first chance in this competition, and I'm not wasting this one.
28:45One, two, three, and four.
28:47This is a release.
28:48Release.
28:49Okay.
28:50Don't even think about it.
28:51Shake it up.
28:52Snap it.
28:53Cross.
28:54Okay.
28:55Right?
28:56Five, six, seven, eight.
28:57Release.
28:58Down.
28:59Wah, wah.
29:00Irene is definitely thinking too much.
29:02There's a little bit of like, oh my gosh, I gotta learn this choreography, but I feel there's
29:07some excitement there.
29:08Bah!
29:09Bah!
29:10Bah!
29:11Bah!
29:12Come on!
29:13When you do that, there's something that feels familiar for you right there to hold on
29:14to.
29:15Yeah, I may have done that once or twice, but I think you have.
29:18I still don't know what to expect from Irene.
29:20I thoroughly enjoyed her ten seconds on season 15, but we've never seen her do anything.
29:26What can she do?
29:27We shall see.
29:28Release.
29:29Don't think about what counts.
29:30Okay.
29:31You ready to rock?
29:32Absolutely.
29:33I was born so much.
29:34Yeah.
29:35I love me some Jamal Sims.
29:36We worked together on Condragulations on my season where he iconically called me Michelle
29:41Obama.
29:42Olivia reminds me of the first lady.
29:44Faith Evans?
29:45More on the Michelle Obama tip.
29:47And he's not wrong.
29:49One, two, three, four, five, and six, seven.
29:54Tap to stage eight.
29:56Boom.
29:57Woo!
29:58Up one, two, rock, three, four.
30:00And that should really rock.
30:03We got to pull you out and get you nasty in the grit.
30:07Cause you're so, you know, I called you Michelle Obama.
30:10We want to believe that she's in a rock band.
30:12And right now it just feels like she's still in a pageant.
30:15Go five and six and seven.
30:17Wah!
30:18Is there a particular style of dance that you were drawn to?
30:21Do you have a dance background?
30:22I don't have a dance.
30:23I can move.
30:24I have, you know, some rhythm.
30:25Choreography's a little tricky at times, but I can definitely pick it up cause I do work
30:28with dancers a lot.
30:29Moving into rehearsal, I'm nervous, excited, nervous.
30:34What I'm thinking is something just a little bit smooth at the top.
30:38Okay.
30:39So we're going to go one, two.
30:41So just give me, ah, ah, and then step out three, four.
30:46So, two.
30:47Uh-uh.
30:48Take this right one and take it around and then just set it down there.
30:52Okay.
30:53There you go.
30:54You okay?
30:55Mm-hmm.
30:56Phoenix is looking like a little wounded dove, you know?
31:01She's so afraid.
31:02How's it feeling?
31:03It's getting, it's getting there.
31:04Yeah.
31:05Yeah.
31:06I'm not overloading you.
31:07No, no.
31:08It's getting there.
31:09I'm starting to feel overwhelmed.
31:10Knowing that I can pick up choreography, I'm like, what are you doing?
31:15You can do this.
31:16Like, what are you doing?
31:18Rap.
31:19Five.
31:20And six.
31:21All right, stop, stop, stop.
31:22Something like, yeah.
31:23Yeah, yeah.
31:24And we're just going to breathe, because I want you to breathe, because I can see you in
31:26your head, AB.
31:27Mm-hmm.
31:28Throw away the steps.
31:29Okay.
31:30I don't care if it's not perfect.
31:31Right.
31:32But just relax.
31:33Okay.
31:34Breathe, because you can do it.
31:35Yeah.
31:36I know you can do it.
31:37Right.
31:38I am one of these people that I can really start overthinking things.
31:42And once that starts, it just, it's a spiral.
31:45Oh, my God.
31:46What?
31:47We're getting there.
31:48Are we tasing?
31:49Are we tasing?
31:50No saves.
31:51Let's get mugged.
31:52Today, we're going to debut the rock and roll music video, Winner Winner, Chicken Dinner,
32:00and I'm shitting brakes.
32:02Tell this lady, how are you doing?
32:04I think yesterday was just like a lot.
32:06Sensory overload situation.
32:07Sensory overload.
32:08Yeah.
32:09I don't want to repeat season three again.
32:11You know, I'm trying to not get in my head, but it's happening.
32:14I can feel it happening.
32:15I can feel it happening.
32:16There's no time to like second guess a choice.
32:17Yeah.
32:18Just like get into it.
32:19Because you need to put those fucking points on the board.
32:22Yeah.
32:23This is not how I'm wanting week one to go.
32:25In order for me to win this challenge, I've really got to not be my own worst enemy.
32:30I hope it's just all going to come out the way it's supposed to.
32:35We only have three weeks to make an impression.
32:38And these extra points, I'm like, what the fuck is that?
32:40What is that?
32:41What is that?
32:42Do you think it's a voting thing?
32:43I mean, I can see that.
32:44I do fear for some of the dynamics after whatever twist starts twisting.
32:48Everybody's real, real sweet.
32:49But like, I would love to see that change a little bit.
32:51Are you about to go out there and outdance a song?
32:56I mean, I wouldn't say outdance you all.
32:58I would say show that I'm not one to be messed with.
33:00I love that.
33:01Rehearsals went great and I feel confident that I'm going to be able to turn this challenge
33:04around.
33:05But if I'm being honest, I'm sizing up my competition and it would be foolish to count anyone out.
33:09I mean, there's only six of us and each one brings something different.
33:13It's time to go all the way.
33:16Anyone single out there, I love going all the way.
33:22Honestly, I didn't really know what to expect meeting you.
33:27Like, if I'm being a thousand percent honest, because of your episodes, you were...
33:30I kept reading the girls.
33:32Right.
33:33It's 40 inches, trust.
33:34No, it's not.
33:35It definitely is 40 inches.
33:37Do we have a change measure?
33:38I really do like reading and I like banter.
33:41Right.
33:42In my view, I see it as like a bonding exercise.
33:43Sure, but not everyone knows how to take that.
33:45And not everyone is quick enough to throw it back.
33:47Right.
33:48Clock that.
33:49Clock it.
33:50You think you have a good chance of making it to the end?
33:53I know I have a good chance.
33:55If there's two bitches that are making it to the end, I would rather it be you and me.
34:00Period.
34:01If that's the case, what's our plan of action?
34:05This is All Stars and in every All Stars that has happened, alliances were needed.
34:11And Ruth said, we have four points that we don't know where they're going to come from.
34:15So it's giving, get your alliances together, know who's back you're having and know who's back you're stabbing.
34:21Because bitch, we got three weeks.
34:23We each will have each other, but we'll get to know some of the other girls and try to get closer to them than they are to each other.
34:31We're going to need to call it Operation Mimu.
34:33Mimu to the end.
34:34Mimu.
34:35Mimu.
34:36Mimu stands for Miyake Mugler, our ballroom house.
34:41Miyake Mugler, Miyake Mugler.
34:45Operation Mimu is in full effect.
34:47If we make alliances outside of this sisterhood, we'll be able to hopefully control the hope game and solidify ourselves in the semifinals.
34:56I have been vibing with Deja.
34:59But I just think when we're prioritizing our alliances, obviously you're my number one.
35:04You are my absolute.
35:06I'm about to see what the other girls are up to.
35:08I will be shit-talking in the confessionals, so watch out.
35:11What you said, bitch?
35:13What to talk now, bitch?
35:15Just know that if y'all start talking shit in the confessionals...
35:18Aja, now's not the right time to make a moment, baby. Your paint looks crazy.
35:23Bitch, the loading symbol above your head as you tried to think of a comeback was crazy.
35:26I don't need to think of a comeback, bitch. You went home first like it's easy.
35:29The girls are fighting!
35:31I love my sister, but Irene has this wonderful ability to put her foot so far into her mouth.
35:39And that could be a problem.
35:41You're over here talking about, oh, I look crazy. I got a loading sign on my head.
35:44You only have one eyeliner.
35:45Okay, bitch, I'm taking my time. What are you doing?
35:48Season nine, nobody stopped me and said, don't go out on the runway, bitch.
35:52They looked at me and they said, you look good.
35:54Aja, I watched season nine. They did not tell you you look good. They told you you look crazy.
35:57Now is not the time to ruffle too many feathers.
36:00Because historically, success in All Stars is not just up to your performance.
36:06It's also about how the girls feel about you.
36:08I do remember someone saying, are you nervous about people seeing you without Facetune?
36:11And I think you said, I think I look the same.
36:13You can never say that shit about me now because, bitch, I do look the same way I look in my motherfucking photos.
36:18That's because you stopped photoshopping them.
36:20Bitch, no, because I went on estrogen.
36:22With drag queens, it's not serious until it is serious.
36:26And by the time you figured out if it is serious, it's far too late.
36:29And I think that's so fun.
36:31Irene, I got it out for you, bitch.
36:33I'll add your name to the list.
36:34Okay.
36:35What list?
36:36Of people who have it out for me?
36:37It's a long one.
36:40Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race Tournament of All Stars.
36:44My favorite groupie, Michelle Visage.
36:47Now, did you ever get caught smoking in the boys' room?
36:50Oh, I got caught, but I wasn't smoking.
36:57And it's rocker dude, Ross Matthews.
37:00What's up?
37:02What's your favorite band, man?
37:04Just easy, dude.
37:05Queen.
37:10And she's gonna rock you like a hurricane.
37:13It's Ice Spice.
37:14Welcome.
37:15Ru, I'm so happy to be here.
37:17Well, we are thrilled to have you.
37:19This week, we challenged our queens to rock out to Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.
37:24Tonight on the Runway, category is Slit and Tit.
37:28Ooh.
37:30All Stars, start your engines and may the best drag queen win.
37:34Up first, Aja, cut me a piece of that red velvet cake.
37:38All right.
37:39I'm giving you the Pokemon Jinx as styled by Elsa Schiaparelli.
37:43Bitch, I feel like a rich alien.
37:46Those are what I call some purple nurples.
37:48Mm-hmm.
37:49I feel like I could lactate purple milk.
37:51I guess that's called taro.
37:53Turns out I'm a boob man.
37:58Up next, Bosco.
38:00Zip it all the way up.
38:03I'm giving you Frankenstein Mugler Moschino coin purse down.
38:09Zipper?
38:10I don't even know her.
38:12I am radiant in this pink motocross jacket.
38:17This hair is psychotic.
38:19My boobs, very expensive.
38:22I wouldn't mind getting caught in that zipper.
38:24Up next, Deja Skye.
38:29Ooh, the luxury.
38:32Think if I was all grown up.
38:34My inspiration for this look is romantic renaissance.
38:37I am owning this runway.
38:39How much for just one leg?
38:41The tits are titting, the waist is wasting, and the leg is legging.
38:45Baby 10's across the board.
38:46This year's Miss Golden Globes.
38:48Up next, Olivia Luxe.
38:54Jersey, put your lighters up.
38:56Mm-hmm.
38:57Lil' Kim has entered the building, y'all.
39:00I am giving the iconic MTV Awards red carpet eleganza.
39:05Uh, no, I'll just have the one breast.
39:09And that tit goes all the way down to the slit, baby.
39:13That's called a peek-a-boob.
39:14Oh, Diana Ross, is she gonna come and just...
39:17Ah, Luxe be a lady tonight.
39:20Ta-ta for now.
39:22Up next, Irene the alien.
39:24Oh, she's green.
39:26Check yourself before you shrek yourself.
39:28On season 15, I didn't really get to show my drag aesthetic.
39:31So, coming back to Drag Race, I didn't leave a single stone unturned.
39:35Every inch of me is on purpose.
39:37And I love the looks that I brought.
39:39Was somebody calling for an anal probe?
39:41I've got this high, feather-trimmed slit.
39:44And for my tits, well, they're green.
39:46They're green!
39:47If you're an alien, why don't you show us your anus?
39:53Ooh.
39:54Cool.
39:55There it is.
39:59Up next, Phoenix.
40:01Remember the California raisins?
40:03Yes.
40:04Well, this is them now.
40:05Oh, wow.
40:07Love, love, love my look.
40:10It's giving very American Horror Story meets Drag Race.
40:13Somebody say slit.
40:15Uh-huh.
40:16Uh-oh.
40:16Oh, yes, yes, yes.
40:18Do it.
40:19Let them breathe.
40:20Breathe the nipples.
40:21Yes.
40:22I'm feeling like I'm ready to beat someone's ass with a whip.
40:26It's right.
40:28Oh, look, she had twins.
40:29Yeah.
40:32Welcome, All Stars.
40:34Time to watch the music video debut of Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner.
40:48Winner, Winner.
40:51Chicken Dinner.
40:52Winner, Winner.
40:55Chicken Dinner.
40:56I know they had to put the bass queen first.
40:59I put these girls in a hearse on the first verse.
41:01I'm a wild little bitch with a fatty and some curves.
41:04Glam-rock attitude.
41:05My eye rolls stern.
41:06I'm charismatic and unique.
41:07I get a nerve.
41:07I'm talented.
41:08I win so much.
41:09And bitches ain't made it.
41:10I'm leaving with the crown.
41:11And girl, I made them this.
41:13Whoever in my way.
41:14I'm gonna set the rock out of them.
41:15Ow.
41:17Yeah.
41:17I said it.
41:18P-O-S-T-O.
41:22The demon's back.
41:23So welcome to this culture.
41:24It's my time and you're behind.
41:26And I can tell that your garments are lying.
41:29Tits and asses, my profession.
41:31Papa, can you hear me?
41:32I have a confession.
41:33This is gonna be easy.
41:38Widow, Widow.
41:41Chicken dinner.
41:43Widow, Widow.
41:46Chicken dinner.
41:47It's Deja Skye.
41:48It's Deja Vu.
41:49Cause I'm bringing this bad ant back to you.
41:52With a face on tit like I always do.
41:54Yeah, the mug stays beat black and blue.
41:56Always 100.
41:57I'm in for the kill.
41:58Should ensure these thighs were 100 mil.
42:00Cause I always serve.
42:01Come and get your fill.
42:02You can call me little John the way I man this grill.
42:06Yeah.
42:06Behind the pointed ears and clown white concealer.
42:15Lies a winner and it's time to release her.
42:18This time I'll make sure you remember my night.
42:23It's Irene.
42:24From the holler to the hall of fame.
42:28Widow, Widow.
42:31Chicken dinner.
42:33Widow, Widow.
42:34Chicken dinner.
42:39D-Valicious Supreme.
42:42This electric smile has got you shook up.
42:45Scared I can't see.
42:46I'll storm the girls out on the street.
42:49This face, this skin.
42:51Place your lips on this moon.
42:52Let's all to win.
42:53I'm a killer watch.
42:54Cause I'm a killer watch.
42:56I'll always make the cut.
43:02From the fire, from the ash.
43:04Phoenix is back.
43:05Ready for revenge.
43:06Out of my way or I'll take you down.
43:09This is my time.
43:11Ready in sight.
43:12Ready to fight.
43:13Ready to take what I like.
43:16No queen's gonna come between me and my crown.
43:20Widow, Widow.
43:23Say this through the weather.
43:28Chicken dinner.
43:29Chicken dinner.
43:30Chicken dinner.
43:31Chicken dinner.
43:35Chicken dinner.
43:36Yeah.
43:39Yeah.
43:40Oh, my God, yes, we did that, honestly, honestly, we did that, we did that.
43:58My queens, tonight, tournament of all-stars rules are in full effect.
44:04I'll name the top two all-stars of the week, and each will receive two points.
44:08Then the top two will lip-sync for their chance to win $10,000 and one extra point.
44:16Now, remember, at the end of this first three-episode bracket, the three queens with the most points will continue on to the semifinals, with the chance to ultimately win $200,000.
44:31And that's U.S. currency, honey.
44:33Now it's time for the judges' critiques, starting with Aja.
44:37Hello, Aja.
44:39Hey, Buki.
44:40So you came out strong.
44:42Your energy was out of control.
44:44I enjoyed watching you.
44:45I enjoyed your lyrics.
44:47You talked about being a baddie with a fatty.
44:50You know I like that.
44:52Love the confidence.
44:5410 out of 10 performance.
44:55Thank you, Buki.
44:57Aja, you turned it.
44:59What were you thinking?
45:00Were you channeling someone?
45:01I said, I just got to go outside and give them my barracuda cart.
45:05Okay, Buki.
45:06Okay, Buki.
45:07You already know.
45:10This look tonight.
45:11I think you look beautiful.
45:12I wish the arms matched as well so every bit of skin was the same hue.
45:17But, um, details, you know?
45:19Up next, Bosco.
45:21You were so much fun.
45:23Trying to take my eyes off of you was not easy.
45:25You looked like a Mary Jane girl.
45:27It was very, very smokin'.
45:27That rocker chick outfit was the ultimate in cunt whore.
45:33Period.
45:34I have a doctorate in cunt whore.
45:36But in the music video, there were a couple moments where you were turned away from the camera.
45:42Honey, when you look this good, please, I speak for a nation, face the camera.
45:47Okay?
45:47Okay.
45:48Tonight on the runway, this is so beautiful.
45:49This is like a giant burlesque version of the motorcycle jacket.
45:52I love the hair.
45:54It's just all beautifully done.
45:55Your boobs?
45:56Your boobs really are your profession.
45:58Well.
45:59I love, like, your body's sickening.
46:02I can't take my eyes off of your breasts.
46:05I'm sorry.
46:05They're down here.
46:06Keep it going.
46:08Mama.
46:08Mama.
46:09Baby wants a meal.
46:11Oh, my God.
46:14Up next, Deja Skye.
46:16In your music video, the smartest thing you did in your lyric was throwing it back to the
46:20snatch game, the Lil Jon, yeah.
46:22Yeah, yeah.
46:24Which I think you won.
46:25I was the only good one.
46:26Sorry, Bosco.
46:28I was there.
46:28I know.
46:29Yeah, yeah.
46:30I know a thing or two about what it feels like to shed part of yourself.
46:34It's not about what you look like.
46:35It's about how you walk through the world.
46:38I saw you parading through the world in that music video.
46:41And I don't know that you could have had that kind of freedom when we first met you.
46:45With this look tonight, you do look beautiful, but it's because that's slits and tits.
46:49Of course I want more titties.
46:50Right.
46:51Look at the other titties on the stage tonight.
46:53Don't be afraid to give us more dragginess in there.
46:55Absolutely.
46:55Because she's so subtle.
46:56Right?
46:57You know.
46:58This look is giving me like if the Statue of Liberty was cunt.
47:01I love that.
47:04Are you wearing a hose?
47:05No.
47:05Oh, my gosh.
47:06Just leg, Mama.
47:07Gosh.
47:07Wow, you do look so beautiful.
47:10Up next, Olivia Lux.
47:12And I love that you in your lyrics, you say, I'm a kilowatt, because I'm a killer.
47:16What?
47:17Who said it?
47:18Me.
47:18Yeah, I said it.
47:19You did?
47:19You have a beautiful voice.
47:21I almost felt it was a little too pretty for rock.
47:28I wanted you to get grittier.
47:30Yeah.
47:30I loved your hair in the performance, of course.
47:33Ginger curls, you know.
47:34There he is.
47:34You won me over with that one.
47:36I don't got much to say.
47:37Pretty.
47:37I like it.
47:39This look tonight, we love Lil' Kim, and that's an iconic look.
47:43Of course, you made it your own.
47:44I would say you dragged it out, but it was drag in the first place.
47:47Okay.
47:47Period.
47:48Gorgeous.
47:49It looks fantastic.
47:51Oh, thank you.
47:52Up next, Irene the alien.
47:55Irene, I wrote down, I think you literally slayed this.
47:59Oh, thank you.
48:01Your tongue-ography.
48:02You're very gifted with that tongue, and it works in metal.
48:06I'm going to tell you something that Michelle Visage has heard a lot.
48:09Your tongue was made for this challenge.
48:10How do you think I got here?
48:15And then your lyrics, my favorite part, because you went home very early in your season, and
48:19you said, remember my name.
48:20It's Irene!
48:21I got to tell you guys.
48:23This is how you come back to this competition, with something to prove.
48:27That was phenomenal.
48:29Your runway look is everything.
48:31I love this big, like, headboard behind you.
48:34You're really in your own world, and I love that.
48:37Thank you so much.
48:38Wow, Irene, you came out swinging.
48:41Are those double Ds or triple Ds?
48:43I believe the size on the website was jugs.
48:47I'll take four.
48:48Thank you, Irene.
48:49Up next, by the time I get to Phoenix, she'll be lactating.
48:55Phoenix!
48:56Hello!
48:57So, Phoenix, you are an OG.
49:00I thought that you had a really good time in the rock video, but you almost felt like
49:05you were holding back a little.
49:06Right.
49:06And you have everything it takes to compete with every single one of these kids, so I
49:11don't want you holding back.
49:12Okay.
49:13I hear you're a legendary icon, but tonight, I don't think I would have been able to tell
49:18with how shy you were.
49:22Okay.
49:23Yep.
49:24Great.
49:24Smile and nod.
49:25Okay, yep.
49:26I can't imagine what it must be like coming back after all these years, right?
49:29It must be, like, a little surreal.
49:31Everything is different.
49:32The drag is different.
49:34So trying to find your footing again, it can be overwhelming.
49:37Listen, I understand that you had that.
49:39No more.
49:40Right.
49:40You don't get to have that moment anymore.
49:41Because, bitch, you could win this thing.
49:43Right.
49:43You are so good.
49:45And I saw that in Sparks today during the music video.
49:48But this look, this is what I expect from you.
49:50This is so fun, and it's naughty.
49:52And because you chose this beautiful purple, it's also stunning.
49:57You've got a lot on your shoulders to carry on the tradition and represent Atlanta drag.
50:03Yes.
50:03So we're looking forward to it.
50:04Thank you so much, Ruth.
50:06Thank you, All Stars.
50:07I think we've heard enough.
50:08While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.
50:12You may leave the stage.
50:14All right.
50:15Just between us girlfriends, what do you think?
50:17We are looking for a top two.
50:19Hmm.
50:20Gloves off.
50:21I want to hear the tour.
50:23I thought Aja attacked this challenge.
50:26She was one of my favorites tonight because she felt so authentically rock.
50:30She felt metal.
50:31I don't think anyone else was able to bring their voice up to the level of the metal music.
50:36I couldn't take my eyes off of her.
50:37On the runway, she should have been all purple on the skin just to keep it cohesive.
50:41It was kind of weird, but that's the way that Aja does drag.
50:43She always does it kind of anime style.
50:45This was a nod to Pokemon and a nod to Schiaparelli, which I never thought I'd say in the same breath.
50:51I feel like Bosco is definitely top two.
50:54The fashion this week from Bosco was outrageous.
50:58That runway look, stellar.
51:00I honestly want to try both of her looks on.
51:02So that's how I know she really took it.
51:05In the rock music video, I do like how she started out with like,
51:08B-O-S-E-O and then like kind of went into it.
51:10But if you're comparing like Aja to Bosco, I think Bosco's verse was a little bit weaker.
51:14For me, she hit it out of the park.
51:16She could win this week.
51:18I'm sorry, I'm obsessed with Irene.
51:19She's my fave, I think.
51:21And both of her looks were amazing.
51:24She was so dialed in.
51:26What she was doing with the tongue, on her knees, with the guitar.
51:29She knew this type of music and you felt it.
51:31What a way to come back to this competition.
51:34This is a redemption performance if I've ever seen one.
51:37Tonight, Irene let these bitches have it.
51:40If this whole drag queen thing didn't work out for her, she could have been a rock star.
51:43Silence, I've made my decision.
51:46Bring back my All-Stars.
51:50Welcome back, All-Stars.
51:52Based on your winner-winner chicken dinner performances and your slits and tits runway presentations, I've made some decisions.
52:00In the Tournament of All-Stars, if you're not in the top, you're in the bottom.
52:08Aja.
52:11Vasco.
52:13Irene the Alien.
52:14All three of you served sex, drags, and rock and roll.
52:20But the top two All-Stars of the Week are...
52:26Aja.
52:28Oh, my God.
52:30And Irene.
52:32Yay!
52:32Yeah.
52:36Condragulations.
52:36You've each earned two points.
52:39The rest of you may step to the back of the stage.
52:49Aja.
52:50Irene.
52:51This week, you both rocked our world.
52:54But tonight, there can be only one winner.
52:58Two All-Stars stand before me.
53:01Proud to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance of Thank You to Shit, Part.
53:08Love it.
53:09By Ice Spice.
53:12Ladies, this is your chance to impress me, win $10,000, and earn a coveted extra point in the Tournament of All-Stars.
53:24The time has come for you to lip-sync for your legacy.
53:31When we were getting ready, Irene tried to beat the girls.
53:36Talking about, I look crazy.
53:37Shout-out to you, Irene, and it's no shade.
53:39But now, I'm in battle mode.
53:41Come outside, Irene.
53:42I'm here now, so what's up?
53:43It's my second lip-sync ever.
53:46My first lip-sync did not go super well.
53:49But I'm here to prove that I can lip-sync and I can perform.
53:53And I can get that $10,000, but most importantly, that extra point.
53:57Game face.
53:59It's not a lip-sync, baby.
54:00Good luck and don't.
54:03Fuck it up.
54:08It's like I'm going to say in the intro.
