00:00Yes, baby, I put my whole foot into that lip-sync and Jules killed it.
00:10RuPaul could do nothing but keep us both.
00:13Oh, my God!
00:17I am so happy that this is not a moment that anybody has to go home.
00:21Oh, my God.
00:23Shit.
00:24High five.
00:25Yes.
00:28Bitch, I am gagged.
00:30I'm happy that everyone's here, but I'm annoyed.
00:33It's like, girl, as soon as we thought we were about to have a top four, no, bitch.
00:38Just kidding.
00:39Still a top five.
00:41That was one of the greatest lip-syncs I've ever seen in my life.
00:44That was fucking fire.
00:45That was drag.
00:46It was incredible.
00:48The wig reveal?
00:49Girl, you gagged me by that.
00:52I knew I was going to be at the bottom this week, so I was like, I got to come up with a plan.
00:55I cannot go home today with my dad here.
00:58That would have been awful.
01:01And so, like, I am so fucking grateful that we just gave our parents another reason to be proud of us.
01:05Oh, God.
01:08It just means the fucking world that RuPaul saved me again.
01:13And there's a reason for that.
01:14I am going to make it to the end.
01:16Well, wait a minute, Miss Samantha Ho Jenkins, girl.
01:19She's the winner.
01:20Winner.
01:21How do you feel?
01:23I feel so good.
01:24I, you know, went from so upset last week to being on top of the world.
01:29And, I mean, I'm just so grateful.
01:31Like, I owe my mom the world.
01:32Honey.
01:33The rebound of all rebounds was executed by Little Miss Sam Star.
01:38Shout out to Charles Barkley.
01:39Not only did I win my third challenge, but I won giving my mom, my best friend, my angel a makeover.
01:46One more big challenge to go.
01:48How are we feeling?
01:49There's only going to be one winner.
01:50There's only going to be one winner.
01:51And now there's a top five.
01:52May the best woman motherfucking win.
01:54I'm going to fight.
01:55I'm going to fight.
01:56I'm going to fight.
01:57I'm going to fight.
01:58I'm going to fight.
01:59We're coming off of the week that our parents were here, so I know everybody's feeling lovey-dovey.
02:05But, like, let's be real.
02:06You both did stay, which is fine.
02:08Mm-hmm.
02:09For now.
02:10Well.
02:11But somebody's got to go, honey, because I got to get to the crown.
02:13We're getting so close to the end, and I am so ready to steal the spotlight from my sisters.
02:19While we may be friends, it's still a competition.
02:21So put them dukes up, because I'm ready to fight.
02:24You know how on your nerves you get down?
02:26Okay, it's game time.
02:28Well, this town ain't big enough for the five of us.
02:33It's a new day in the workroom, and this is the start of the end.
02:37It's the beginning of our last challenge.
02:40What the hell?
02:42Let's get down to brass tacks.
02:44It's not brass tacks.
02:45We had a double save last week.
02:47Yes, we did.
02:48But we do not know what that means for the end of this competition.
02:52In my mind, I'm like, are two of us going home this week?
02:55Is it going to be a top four?
02:57I have no idea.
02:58Five and alive.
02:59Hello, hello, hello.
03:01I see we have a Western theme going on here.
03:06Congratulations on making it to the semifinals.
03:11In just two weeks, we are going to crown ourselves a winner, baby.
03:17And I got to say, at this point, it's still anyone's game to win.
03:22So, if you want to be America's next drag superstar, you got to be able to give good heads.
03:28Liner.
03:30For this week's maxi challenge, you'll be auditioning to star in RuPaul's Drag Race Live at Flamingo Vegas.
03:37It's on.
03:41First, to steal the spotlight, you'll need to make attention-grabbing publicity photos and a promotional video.
03:49Next, you'll sit down with the star who's no stranger to headlining on the Vegas Strip,
03:54the large and in charge, chunky yet funky, Latrice Royale.
03:58And tomorrow on the main stage, you'll perform the world debut of Gift Shop, the newest song to be added to RuPaul's Drag Race Live.
04:11And we'll be joined by our extra special guest judge, the terrific Tracee Ellis Ross.
04:17Oh, my God!
04:18Tracee!
04:19My auntie is here!
04:20Oh, my God!
04:21I am gagged!
04:24Ladies and gentlemen, we are all rooting for you.
04:27But before this week is over, at least one of you will be going home.
04:33At least?
04:36Did y'all clock that?
04:38So two bitches could be walking out today.
04:40I just need a fucking ZX for something, bitch.
04:42This is too much.
04:44Racers, start your engines.
04:46And may the best drag queen win.
04:52Oh, my God.
04:54This is major, bitch.
04:56I'm so sad I can pee.
04:57I think I just did, actually.
04:59It's time to start doing some writing and figuring out how we're going to sell ourselves to the Vegas show and the judges panel.
05:05And, you know, I love selling myself.
05:07You can find me on pretty much any corner from here to St. Clair County.
05:10What's the angle you're shooting for with this?
05:13I'm going to be myself a shady, country, fabulous diva.
05:19I immediately know what direction I want to go.
05:20It seems like the judges like when I lean into this country thing that I'm from the middle of nowhere and, you know, wanted to become somebody one day.
05:26I put the cunt in country.
05:29Oh, my God.
05:30Write that down, Samantha.
05:31Write it down now.
05:32I think that Sam is just running this old country theme into the ground, honey.
05:36But this is the game.
05:38Sister Fish, I love you so much, but I'm not going to tell you that I don't think this is the best idea.
05:42What about you, Anya?
05:45I don't know.
05:46I'm thinking about all of the different one-woman shows that I've seen, like Whoopi Goldberg and, like, Viola Davis.
05:52I'm bringing a lot of nerve.
05:53A lot of nerve.
05:54A lot of nerve.
05:55Being in the bottom last week definitely put a fire under my butt because these girls are talented.
05:59And so you've got to keep focused.
06:01You've got to keep your eye on the M-Prize.
06:03And I came to play.
06:05This is Vegas, baby.
06:06What about you?
06:07I feel like I want to go in a very anything-goes direction.
06:11Like, a sailor kind of theme.
06:13Because my unique perspective here, especially among this five, is, like, the tap dance, the vintage, the glamour.
06:19Broadway.
06:20Broadway.
06:21Broadway, baby.
06:22Broadway and Vegas.
06:23Listen, I ain't going to say nothing because I'm trying to make it to the finale.
06:26But Susie, I see that she is bringing this flapper girl and tap dancing thing to everything she's doing.
06:31And this is Vegas.
06:33This is not Broadway.
06:34You're finally going to tap for us, Susie.
06:36Finally.
06:37Goddamn.
06:3814 episodes to get you to tap again.
06:41Of course the girls are like, oh, look at her go.
06:45She's doing her doo-doo-doo-doo thing.
06:47Which is the reaction I've gotten from them all season.
06:50This season that I've been dominating.
06:52So it seems like a good thing that I'm being made fun of for my idea.
06:57Anything goes, babe.
06:58Honey, anything goes.
07:00Hi, guys.
07:01Sparkle jewels.
07:02It's time to do our photo shoot with Rue and celebrity photographer, Albert Sanchez.
07:07Hi, Albert.
07:08Hello.
07:09Albert has photographed the biggest stars in the world.
07:11Now he's photographing you.
07:12Oh, what an honor.
07:13Now, you're ready for Las Vegas, aren't ya?
07:15Baby, I understood the assignment.
07:17That's right.
07:18Fingers crossed, this photograph winds up on a billboard on the Las Vegas Strip.
07:23Oh, God, yes.
07:25Girl, this look is the teeth.
07:26Okay, we're stoned.
07:27We're feathered.
07:28My wig is plucked.
07:29My dick is tucked.
07:30Look at the angles.
07:31You're gonna cut somebody with those cheekbones.
07:33There's one thing I'm gonna do is steal the spotlight.
07:35Can you open your mouth at all?
07:37Yeah, and smile like that.
07:39Yes!
07:42Gorge.
07:43Yes!
07:44That's it.
07:45That's it.
07:46Right there.
07:47For the supermodel of the world to make me feel like I know what I'm doing in a photo shoot
07:50in this situation is just the biggest compliment of life.
07:52Yes!
07:53That was gorgeous.
07:54Okay, tell you what.
07:55Okay.
07:56We're gonna up the ante right now.
07:57Okay.
07:58Let's bring in the dancers.
07:59Come on in, fellas.
08:00Ah!
08:01I am seeing these delicious dancers in their J.J. Malibu shorts.
08:10So get on your knees.
08:11No, not you guys.
08:12She's on her knees.
08:13Oh!
08:14And they're all around you.
08:16Oh, my God.
08:17This is Pink Duck Memory.
08:18This is one of those water shows in Las Vegas.
08:25Come and see it.
08:30It is such an honor to model for RuPaul.
08:34We're having a good time.
08:35Oh, bitch.
08:36I'm just trying to make as much eye contact with Ru as possible so that she knows I deserve
08:40to be in that finale.
08:41Yes!
08:42Oh, I love it.
08:43I always find a three-quarter is the most flattering to a head and shoulder shot.
08:49Mm-hmm.
08:50You know, it gets depth and angles to the face.
08:52Now connect with that camera.
08:54Yes.
08:55Make sure that the shape you make makes sense to the camera.
08:58Got it, got it, got it.
08:59You know what I mean?
09:00I like photo shoots, but I'm always concerned how I look and how it translates on camera.
09:05Give them a little, Miss Ross.
09:07Come to my show.
09:08Yeah!
09:09The show is sold out.
09:10Yes!
09:11It's sold out!
09:12Yeah.
09:13Oh, they've extended it.
09:14Oh, shit!
09:15We got another weekend.
09:18Let's bring in the dance.
09:19Oh, yeah!
09:21Hey, y'all.
09:22What's up?
09:23Now, let them have it.
09:25Oh, and Marcel is making it all about Miss Anya Nur, and I love it.
09:30What you doing over there, Marcel?
09:31Yeah.
09:32Uh-huh.
09:33This ain't your photo shoot.
09:34This is my photo shoot.
09:35They're good now.
09:36Ooh, these men are looking good, but this is still the Anya show.
09:40I want to see this show.
09:41I'll give you backstage.
09:42Passes.
09:43Do you have a glamorous toothache?
09:46Always.
09:47Do you also have a glamorous headache?
09:50Yes, you do.
09:53Let me just spread this out.
09:54Yes.
09:55We'll do this right here.
09:56I will never wash this dress, ever.
09:59I want that DNA to be on the train of that dress until I die.
10:04How's that?
10:05Is it doing it?
10:06Yes.
10:07Is that it right there?
10:08That's perfect.
10:09Think billboard, Sam.
10:10Sell those tickets, Mama.
10:11The slots are loose, and so are you.
10:13You heard about me.
10:15Gorgeous.
10:16Great.
10:17Oh, boys!
10:19Yes.
10:20Love it.
10:21Gorgeous.
10:22I am very distracted by all the bulges around me.
10:25If I'm staying focused, honey, I'm going to sell it to the camera and then sell it to
10:28them after.
10:29Now I know how you got that last name.
10:31Uh-huh.
10:32Ahoy.
10:33Beep beep.
10:34It's Susie Toot.
10:35Now, if you're lucky, you will end up on the famed Las Vegas trip.
10:42Has that ever been a part of your dream machine?
10:44It is not.
10:45Have you ever been to Las Vegas?
10:47I've never been, no.
10:48Well, I know you've been to the Poconos.
10:51Same thing.
10:52Same thing.
10:53Same thing, just lots more lights.
10:55Okay.
10:56Now imagine you're trying to entice people to come to see this show.
11:00Okay.
11:01Is that your good side, Susie?
11:02Sure.
11:03I am not super familiar with the world of photo shoots.
11:08I do a lot of different things in drag, but I'm modeling.
11:13I haven't quite gotten there yet.
11:14You're a dancer.
11:15Maybe you can do a, ah, I'm dancing.
11:17Oh, there you go, Susie.
11:19Keep that chin down.
11:20You got to think silhouette, darling.
11:23Okay.
11:26My goodness.
11:27Lovely to meet you all.
11:28Oh, my.
11:29I bet your dance belt is tingling right now.
11:31Now remember, make that body beautiful.
11:34Can you lift your butt up more?
11:35Ooh.
11:36Yes.
11:37There you go.
11:38And can you be a little more sexy?
11:39This challenge is an audition, which means that you have to be better than the other
11:44auditioners.
11:45We're trying to sell tickets here, Susie.
11:47We have to impress RuPaul because this is our last step before the crown.
11:50What do you think, Albert?
11:51Do we have it?
11:52I think so, yeah.
11:53All right.
11:54Thank you, guys.
11:55That was so much fun.
11:56A vision in silver and diamonds.
12:00Connect with the camera with your eyes.
12:02Yes.
12:03Good.
12:04Pretty hands.
12:06Ah, I'm not feeling so great in this moment.
12:09Light touch with the hands.
12:10A light touch.
12:11Yeah, just make sure the hands are pretty.
12:13Connect.
12:14Just feel relaxed, though.
12:16RuPaul keeps repeating the same instructions, the same things.
12:19Like, I'm trying to do that.
12:21Lift some teeth over the teeth.
12:23It doesn't have to be a smile.
12:24Just lift over the teeth a little.
12:26Get the top lip over the teeth and then go.
12:30Oh.
12:31She wants me to do this, I feel like.
12:33Mom, I know you don't want to take a picture of me like this girl.
12:36I promise you don't.
12:37I promise.
12:38I promise.
12:39I promise.
12:40All right.
12:41Let's bring in the Las Vegas dancer.
12:43Hi.
12:44Oh, shit.
12:45Oof.
12:46Get in as close as possible like you're going to devour her.
12:50Remember to breathe, okay?
12:51Mm-hmm.
12:52Make sure this hand here is not obscuring your waist.
12:54There you go.
12:55That's nice.
12:56Yes, Lexi.
12:57Breathe it all in.
12:58Arm up like you're the center of a flower.
12:59Yes.
13:00Anybody want to smell this flower?
13:02Come on over here.
13:03Don't you dare.
13:07This is it.
13:08This is it right here.
13:09Thank God.
13:10You're making me look more interesting, boys.
13:11Yes.
13:12Come on.
13:13Get it close to the camera.
13:14Okay.
13:15I think we got it.
13:16Thank the fellas, Lexi.
13:17Can I thank you on my knees, gentlemen?
13:23Fan star.
13:24Latrice Royale.
13:26It's time to be interviewed by the fabulous Latrice Royale.
13:29She is like an inspiration.
13:31She knows about longevity in the business.
13:33She is a queen that everyone loves.
13:35Like you cannot not love Latrice.
13:37Rue have sent me here to see if you have what they call headlining potential.
13:42I love head.
13:43Yeah.
13:44She loves head.
13:45Yes.
13:46Now tell me, what is your best quality?
13:50I would say my best quality is my confidence.
13:53Okay.
13:54For a long time I stifled it because I believe the world.
13:57I come from a small town in Alabama, so they definitely tried to beat me down.
14:02But as I came out and found drag, I just realized that I was born to do this.
14:06I have every reason to be confident and those people were just jealous all along.
14:11100%.
14:12You know what I mean?
14:13Yeah.
14:14Now what's your worst quality?
14:15My worst quality is probably my shadiness.
14:18Oh, she's shady.
14:19Yeah, she's shady.
14:20I'm the villain and also America's sweetheart combined into one.
14:24Not everyone always looks fabulous.
14:26And if I didn't care, I would just let you walk out there looking crazy.
14:29But instead, I tell them, and that's the way I show my love.
14:32As a sister.
14:33As a Southern Christian woman, burn that dress girl.
14:36Now, looking back on this season, what would you have done differently?
14:41I think I would have started off the competition just being myself.
14:45I came into this thinking I knew everything about drag.
14:48I'm a pageant girl.
14:49They wanted to see who was behind this perfect persona that I've created.
14:54That's it.
14:55As a Southern Christian, would you like to sing a little Jesus is a Biscuit with me?
14:58I would love to.
14:59Oh, Jesus is a Biscuit.
15:01Let him stop you up.
15:02Okay, she better know.
15:03Jesus is a Biscuit.
15:04Let him stop you up.
15:05Okay, now.
15:06Oh, you got vocals too.
15:07I won the Roots of Coolatrice.
15:09What?
15:10Yes, girl.
15:11I gave him my Cher impersonation.
15:12Do Jesus is a Biscuit as Cher.
15:13I got you.
15:14Jesus is a Biscuit.
15:16Let him stop you up.
15:17Oh.
15:18I love Jesus.
15:20Baby.
15:21That's a star.
15:25It's so nice to meet you.
15:26She's young, but she got the old school ways, which is, oh, that's what we want.
15:30On your nerves.
15:31Kayla trees.
15:32So I'm going to ask you a few questions.
15:34Shoot.
15:35All right.
15:36Was there ever a moment during the competition that you wanted to give up?
15:39Um, you know what?
15:40It was week one.
15:41Really?
15:42In the competition.
15:43Talk about it.
15:44You know, I've only been doing drag three years.
15:45And outside of this, drag isn't my full-time job.
15:47I'm a full-time cook out of this.
15:49So coming in here.
15:50Oh, wait, wait.
15:51Cook.
15:52Oh, yeah, baby.
15:53You like burgers?
15:54I do like burgers.
15:55I'm a smash burger aficionado.
15:56Really?
15:57Uh-huh.
15:58Okay, tell me about you giving up now.
15:59You know, I wear my heart on my sleeve.
16:00Okay.
16:01So it's easy to tell when I'm having a good time or a bad time or if I'm frustrated or angry.
16:06And sometimes I don't write up people the right way.
16:08So when I got here, this was just a whole new world for me.
16:13The thing that could prevent Anya from getting a job is being in her head too much.
16:18You need to be a joy.
16:19You need to want to be there because I don't want to be around people that are miserable.
16:23It took a lot of me getting out of my own way.
16:26And I had to be like, girl, you got to stop alienating yourself.
16:29You got to stop sitting over there in the corner and really engage.
16:32I mean, drag race in itself is, you know, we're a bit of a sorority.
16:35Yeah.
16:36And so it's important to have great camaraderie, a great sisterhood, especially in Vegas where
16:41the machine is moving full speed ahead.
16:43You have to be quick and treat everybody with respect and kindness.
16:46Yeah.
16:47I knew coming in here I was going to have an issue like vibing with certain queens.
16:51And I just wasn't sure if I was going to be able to handle it.
16:54Fast forward to now, I feel like I've broken down those barriers and I've built up the drag
16:59calluses to handle anything that's coming my way.
17:02Hopefully we'll see you in Vegas, baby.
17:03Yes, ma'am.
17:04Susie Toot.
17:05Well, first of all, we know each other.
17:07Absolutely.
17:08You're a new home team.
17:09Home team, baby.
17:10Fort Lauderdale.
17:11That's what I'm saying.
17:12So glad to see you here.
17:13I am the first girl since Latrice to be on Drag Race from Fort Lauderdale.
17:16It's really cool to get to share this moment.
17:18Tell me, what is your worst quality?
17:20I'm very unique.
17:21I'm very unlike the typical drag queen.
17:24The things that are expected of a drag queen of like the perfect hairline and the snatch,
17:28that stuff that need a little vision.
17:30Okay.
17:31But all in all, kind of the whole package.
17:32Your total package.
17:33Looking back on the season, what would you have done differently?
17:36I was so excited about Snatch Game.
17:39I had, in my mind, the perfect character.
17:42I thought RuPaul would lose her mind laughing at it, and then it just didn't go that way.
17:48And I learned that I can be a little niche, and it's okay to allow a wider audience to laugh.
17:56Now, do you think all of your competitors are ready for the Las Vegas stage?
18:00I think every single one of the girls that are here are fierce performers and incredible entertainers.
18:05Okay, I don't want the bullshit answer.
18:07We're not at the patch.
18:08That is true.
18:09You're trying to get a gig here.
18:10You got to beat these other girls out.
18:11You better throw some bitches out of the bus, or leave them at the bus stop.
18:16Some of the girls here, they do drag queen very well.
18:19But a lot of people do drag queen very well.
18:22And I do Suzy too, like nobody's business.
18:24Not to toot your own horn, but beat B.
18:25Not to toot my own horn or anything, but beat B.
18:28But beat B.
18:29They could never put a girl after me.
18:31Because nobody wants to follow this.
18:32Exactly.
18:34Lexi Love.
18:36Latrice Royale.
18:37My God, you are a stunning queen.
18:40We got trans pride, and we got the gay pride, baby.
18:42Oh my word.
18:43Repping for them all.
18:44This is fabulous.
18:45Thank you, Latrice.
18:46Well, tell me your worst quality.
18:48Oh my God.
18:49My worst quality is I'm a cry baby.
18:51No.
18:52Yes.
18:53The estrogen is running through me, vibrating me.
18:55Vibrating me.
18:56Your mouth, girl.
18:57It's allowed me to be in tune with my feelings.
18:59Mm-hmm.
19:00I feel like before I transitioned, I was a very, dare I say it, angry boy.
19:04And now I am a happy, vibrant, emotional woman.
19:08Now, what trials and tribulations in your life have prepared you for this gig?
19:13Oh, Latrice, how much time do you have?
19:15I was a homeless drug addict, so I am, like RuPaul said, a survivor.
19:20I've been, I've survived through a human trafficking incident.
19:24I was at a hotel party with friends.
19:27We were all under the influence of a lot of substances.
19:30They asked me if I wanted to take my friends home and come back alone.
19:34And young and dumb me, I did.
19:36And I came back, they gave me some stuff.
19:39I woke up handcuffed to a bed and stayed there for 48 hours.
19:44Um, I'm sorry.
19:47Those moments make me feel like I just want this to be a long-term journey, honey.
19:53I've survived through so many dumb things in life that I'm prepared for anything you throw at me.
19:59Now, I might cry, but I am prepared to handle it.
20:03Life experience is the best teacher in the world.
20:06And sometimes what we go through and experience in life, while we're in it, we're not feeling like it's doing us a service.
20:13Yeah.
20:14But look at you.
20:15The strength.
20:16The perseverance.
20:17What happens when you put pressure?
20:18Good.
20:19Diamonds, baby.
20:20Diamonds.
20:21Diamonds, darling.
20:22Oh.
20:23Jewel Sparkle.
20:24Hi, Latrice.
20:25Was there ever a moment during the competition that you wanted to throw in the towel and just say, girl, I can't do this no more, let me go?
20:31Oh, yes.
20:32When Arrietty's done stole my jokes.
20:33No, what happened?
20:34For the roast, the girl who went right before me stole half of my jokes.
20:39And I found out as I was sitting waiting to go on.
20:41In that moment, I really was like, girl, I feel like I'm done.
20:45To be fair, they didn't laugh at the jokes that I wrote when she said them.
20:48Now, where is the girl that stole your drugs? Did I talk to her?
20:51She went home.
20:52Oh.
20:53I sat her home that day.
20:54Oh, oh.
20:55Karma is a bitch, isn't it?
20:56Hello.
20:57She works fast here.
20:58Do you feel ready to headline in Vegas?
21:01Where the Ferocity Index is high, she should be on Vegas.
21:04Okay.
21:05And the Ferocity Index is high with this one.
21:07This is what I'm talking about.
21:08I want to combine the worlds of burlesque and high-energy dance, okay?
21:11So where burlesque is usually very poised, very ballerina, I want to combine that with being able to buck the house down.
21:17So I want to tear it off and tear it down.
21:20All right.
21:21We're getting somewhere now.
21:24Where do you see yourself in five years?
21:37Crickets, bitch.
21:42Okay.
21:44Now I stumped you.
21:45Uh-huh.
21:46This is good.
21:47This is good.
21:48Because I want you to think about this.
21:49There is nothing stopping you from doing and being whatever it is that you want to do, but you have to have a plan.
21:55Drag queen, know thyself.
21:57And thinking that far in advance is kind of scary, too.
21:59It is scary.
22:00Because for so long, this was the goal.
22:01Right.
22:02You know what I mean?
22:03Now you're here.
22:04So now I got to think of the next big thing.
22:05You know what I mean?
22:06I'm like starting to really realize that this is so much more than just the show.
22:11My career, my life is so much more than this moment.
22:14Think about your purpose and your destiny and what you want to do.
22:16And I promise you, you'll be successful.
22:19Hopefully.
22:20I'll see you in Vegas, baby.
22:21Yes, queen.
22:22Slay him.
22:23Thank you so much.
22:24Okay.
22:25Now this interview is over.
22:26Can we get those nuts away from my face?
22:28Last day.
22:29Last day.
22:30Last day.
22:31Last day.
22:32Today is the last day in the work room and we will be performing to RuPaul's new hit from
22:47RuPaul's Drag Race Live gift shop.
22:49It's like I'm really going to be on Drag Race Live in front of RuPaul.
22:52I cannot take it.
22:53I think I'm going to cry.
22:55Can't believe it.
22:56Oh, so emotional.
22:58I can't believe it's the last day.
23:00I'm living my dream and it's like now I have to wake up and ugh.
23:03I just want to hit snooze.
23:07Do y'all have any favorite moments here in y'all's journey?
23:10Seeing you in the bottom two.
23:14Squirrel Games totally rocked my world for like what we were going to expect this season.
23:19I'll never forget walking into that Squirrel Game room and seeing all of you, but also seeing a clown.
23:23Don't talk about Cory like that.
23:25Please.
23:26That was one of my hardest days.
23:28I agree with that.
23:29I was like really overwhelmed.
23:30I do remember you being super quiet the first few days.
23:32I was like, oh no, Sam.
23:33Then you slowly snapped out of it and became a monster beast demon from hell.
23:37I was scared of Lexi at first.
23:38Really?
23:39Why?
23:40She's a southern queen and I knew that she wouldn't put up with bullshit, but thank God we became friends.
23:44Because I do not want to be on the opposite side of that.
23:47The first impression I have of Sam versus what I think of Sam now is literally polar opposite.
23:52They're like different people.
23:54I hated her.
23:55I just thought she was nothing.
23:56And once I started to realize that we were much more similar than I thought.
24:01She has become my favorite person in this competition now.
24:05I remember Susie, the minute she walked in I said, oh my God.
24:07Oh my God.
24:08I think we all remember the moment we saw Susie.
24:10I've always wanted my name in the papers.
24:12I always wanted to be in the papers.
24:14You could just tell that you were very smart.
24:16I was like, oh my God.
24:18I am so glad for Sam and I's relationship now.
24:21I just remember being like, there's no way she gets me.
24:24Well that's the thing is like, I just preferred the glitz and the glam and the fab.
24:28Yeah.
24:29But it is fascinating that not everyone is inspired by that, you know?
24:33Totally.
24:34I am really close with these girls.
24:36Of course they make fun of me endlessly, but it's all with love and it makes me so happy.
24:42I, you know, I didn't do drag full time before coming out here.
24:45So I was worried about being immersed in the world of drag queens.
24:48And then I met Jewel.
24:50She too pretty.
24:51She too perfect.
24:52And I'm not going to like this bitch.
24:53Oh my God.
24:54And then our first argument, I was like.
24:56Oh my God.
24:57I needed that trim.
24:58Have your moment.
24:59Cause you're not going to have too many more bitch.
25:00I really don't like this bitch.
25:03So I am just so happy.
25:05We made it through.
25:06So what was the biggest boot of the season?
25:12Joella.
25:15Who thinks?
25:16Okay.
25:17Quilted around me.
25:18Let me do a mattress.
25:19Let me paint RuPaul in the back.
25:20I just can't believe she left the house and was like, yeah.
25:23And she tore it off her bed and said, let's go.
25:26I'm so glad we were able to read each other to dog filth with love this whole season.
25:29Yes.
25:30That's the fun for me is we're drag queens, y'all.
25:32Like it's real.
25:33We're not heart surgeons.
25:34We should cut up in Kiki.
25:35Absolutely.
25:36I'm truly going to miss all of y'all.
25:38I'm going to cherish our friendship.
25:40I was looking at this as another pageant where I came in and competed and then never
25:46saw anyone again.
25:47But I am starting to love all these girls and I see them as my friends.
25:51But bitch, I still want to win, honey.
25:55Anya, do you think that track records are playing into this?
25:59It's not the end all be all, but the wins do go into play.
26:02Well, that's not true.
26:03A lot of the time the girl who has the most wins doesn't win the season.
26:06It would break my heart to get this far and not make the top four or top three, even
26:12when all the odds were stacked against me.
26:14I fought, I battled, and I'm not leaving Drag Race until I get my top four placement.
26:19I don't care what's standing in my way.
26:21You just don't fucking know.
26:23You just don't know.
26:24This top five represents a wide variety of drag.
26:28And I think all of them have very strong reasons for why they should be in the finale.
26:33For every reason that they have, I feel I have a stronger reason.
26:37I have no kryptonite.
26:39I am fucking Superwoman.
26:42It's absolutely terrifying to think that one of us is going to go home.
26:46Now is the time we have to do better than we ever have before.
26:49Good luck, bitches.
26:50And may the best drag queen win.
26:54I'm ready.
26:55Welcome to the semifinals of RuPaul's Drag Race.
26:58It's Michelle Visage.
27:00Now, Michelle, what's the wildest thing you've ever done in Las Vegas?
27:04Does Milli Vanilli count?
27:07It certainly does.
27:10Hey!
27:11Luck be a lady.
27:12It's Ross Matthews.
27:14Ross, are you a slots man?
27:16Well, the biggest gamble I take is eating the shrimp at the 99 cent all-you-can-eat buffet.
27:20And then it's straight to the craps table, if you know what I mean.
27:23I bet it all on number two.
27:25And welcome to Drag Race, the tantalizing, Tracy Ellis Ross.
27:33Hello!
27:35Tracy, do you like to gamble?
27:36Oh, yes.
27:37Yes.
27:38I love a guy with a big deck.
27:39Ooh!
27:41Ooh!
27:42Yep, we all.
27:43Always bet on blackish.
27:44Yes.
27:45This week, we challenged our top five queens to become Vegas headliners.
27:49Racers, start your engines.
27:51And may the best drag queen win.

30:37Fully glass
30:38Rhinestone evening gown
30:40With my gorgeous
30:41Orange velvet cape

30:58Susie Toot
30:59Darling, I'm your Auntie Mame
31:02Yes
31:03This is rich, opulent Susie. I'm wearing an authentic 1920s cocoon coat. I have a cloche hat with a pheasant feather headpiece. I'm in an elevated, but very traditional Susie Toot makeup. It is grand, grand, grand.
31:21Lapper? I don't even know her.
31:23Welcome, queens. What a jam-packed week. Now it's time for the judges' critiques. Up first, Jules Sparkles. Let's take a look at your publicity photos.
31:38Oh, showgirl. You know, that's legal in Nevada. And now, let's take a look at your promotional video.
31:48Hey, big boy. Yeah, you. Feeling lucky? Well, good, because I'm Jules Sparkles, the shiniest gem on the Vegas Strip. And I promise, this Jules does more than just sparkle.
32:00Ding, ding. When you call Jagger's life at the Flamingo, watch me tear it off and tear it up. Do your Jules sparkle? Because, bitch, mine do.
32:07Ding.
32:11Jules, it's been so fun to watch your trajectory as you landed here in the top five in your kiosk video. Like, if I was in Vegas at a resort or I was there at a casino and I saw that, I would stop, I would pay attention, and I would go to that show.
32:25Let's talk about the interview. What I was looking for was a little bit of vulnerability, and I wasn't finding it until you got stumped.
32:32In that moment, you went inward, and I saw you realizing, like, oh, I don't have a plan. And at least it was real.
32:39But I loved your vulnerability when you admitted that the other woman stole your joke, but then you don't know if it worked even when she did it.
32:49It didn't. Then no one laughed.
32:50I thought that was so priceless.
32:52I had no idea that Arrietty stole your jokes. I love that you were spilling tea, which everybody wants in an interview, but you kind of still kept it classy.
33:01Tonight, your outerwear is so beautiful. It's gorgeous. I love that you have no pants on, but yet, it's an illusion.
33:07I gotta tell you, at photo session, you were the easiest to photograph. Those photographs are gorgeous.
33:14Up next, Lexi Love. Let's take a look at your publicity photos.
33:19Oh.
33:20Okay.
33:21Oh.
33:22That's the one I was waiting for. Hello.
33:24Now, let's take a look at your promotional video.
33:28Hey there. I'm Lexi Love.
33:30Don't worry. What happens at RuPaul's Drag Race Live?
33:34Stay at RuPaul's Drag Race Live.
33:36And all my lips are sealed.
33:39I'll be your dirty little fantasy at Flamingo Vegas, where luck and love are always in the air.
33:49Let me be the roller derby doll of your dreams. I'll see you there.
33:55Lexi.
33:56JT.
33:57You have this beautiful thing of joy that is just constantly bursting out of you, and I am just meeting you, and it comes through.
34:06I'd like to go to this right now.
34:07I do think you could wear this in Los Angeles.
34:11I think in Los Angeles, you can pick an outerwear and just be naked underneath.
34:15Your performance at Gift Shop, I couldn't take my eyes off of you. You were so committed to it.
34:20Now, I'll tell you this. I didn't love your promotional video.
34:22Oh, shit.
34:23Now, you kind of look like an ad for a show down the other end of the strip, you know?
34:26I know what you mean.
34:27I'll see you there.
34:28Which normally I'm fine with, but I don't think it totally was the assignment.
34:33Now, your interview, I really loved you in this.
34:37I thought it was very honest, very charming. It was so vulnerable and revealing.
34:42Your story is quite harrowing, and I feel like people are going to want to hear more.
34:47You got it, kiddo. You're the only person who doesn't know you have it.
34:51Why is that?
34:57I spent so long not being somebody that was good enough.
35:00You spent a lot of time on the streets.
35:02The streets, the pole, the pipe, all of it.
35:04A lot of people who have come through something like that could come off as guarded.
35:08You are not guarded.
35:09You are very hard on your sleeve, hard on your back, hard first.
35:13And that's why people root for you.
35:16Up next, Anya Nerd.
35:18Hello, everyone.
35:19Let's look at your publicity photos first.
35:22Oh, right.
35:25Now, let's take a look at your promotional video.
35:29Hey, you jive turkeys, it's me, Anya Nerd.
35:32Is that a roll of 20s in your pocket, or you just happy to see it?
35:36Come check out RuPaul's Drag Race live at Flamingo Vegas,
35:39where you can get a two-piece wing dinner and a show.
35:42Watch me put some nerve in charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent,
35:46because it do take nerves on your nerves.
35:48In my box office, it's open now.
35:53In the performance, my favorite part watching you,
35:56there's a thing you do where you just sort of kind of eye-fuck me.
36:01I was also eye-fucked by Anya.
36:03It was very good.
36:04It's like a long, slow, with a little wink in it.
36:09Yeah.
36:09It's really exceptional.
36:10Okay, what I saw in your look for the interview confused me,
36:14because I saw a North Carolina pastor's wife combined with, like, an Atlanta housewife.
36:19I didn't know where I was.
36:20I could orient myself.
36:22What I loved was we find out late in this competition that your main job is a cook.
36:27It's not even drag.
36:28That do impress me much, because to have a full-time job and do drag part-time
36:32and be where you are in this short amount of time, you should be very proud of yourself.
36:37I mean, that promotional video is a testament to how smart,
36:41how you are able to comprehend what the assignment is and actually give it your own spin.
36:45Now, throughout this competition, you have been guarded on a personal level.
36:50Why have you not gotten the message that you are safe here?
36:55You know, I think I just get caught up with chasing the dream.
36:58But my advice is, you know, have more fun.
37:01You know, play a little bit.
37:03Ain't nothing gonna hurt you.
37:05It ain't hurt you yet.
37:07Up next, Sham Starr.
37:09All right, let's take a look at your photos.
37:12Ooh.
37:15And now for your promotional video.
37:18Well, howdy, y'all.
37:18It's the supermodel of the South, Sham Starr.
37:21And you hit the jackpot.
37:23RuPaul's Drag Race Live is happening tonight at Flamingo Vegas.
37:28Am I gonna show you a good time?
37:29Bitch, does a chicken have a pecker?
37:32Come see me.
37:33Put the charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent in country.
37:37Yee-haw!
37:39All right, let's go to the judges.
37:41This runway look, the orange is beautiful.
37:43You know, you're 24 years old.
37:45So this does age you just a skosh.
37:47But I kind of know this woman.
37:49I appreciate it.
37:50There's a wink and a nod happening.
37:52The promo video, I enjoyed, but I felt like there was like a saran wrap layer between us and you.
37:58There was just something that was like a little bit of a disconnect.
38:01Now, in the performance, you were fantastic.
38:04That outfit's so gorgeous.
38:05The hair.
38:06Sam, you are a joy.
38:07Now, let's talk about the interview.
38:08I have pushed you quite a bit in this competition to let us into that plastic facade.
38:14Mm-hmm.
38:14And you have.
38:15Now, there's a fine line between confident and cocky.
38:17And those people were just jealous all along.
38:20You can be confident because you know what, Sam Starr, I love your confidence.
38:23And you need to keep that confidence.
38:24Yeah.
38:24Just rein it in the slightest bit so it doesn't cross that line.
38:28Does that make sense?
38:28It does.
38:29And thank you for that.
38:30Of course.
38:31We all need to hear those things.
38:32There's a thing that can happen sometimes when we're nervous, even if we think we're being confident and fine,
38:37that unbeknownst to us, we lean towards a cockiness.
38:39But I love the way you took the feedback.
38:41I just thought it was beautiful.
38:42And there's a lot of humility in it.
38:44So, after all these weeks, how are you feeling?
38:46I'm learning so much about myself that it's finally okay to just be me.
38:50Yeah.
38:51I just have so many things to say, and I shouldn't be scared to say them.
38:54Yeah.
38:54And I should embrace all the things that make me different, and the glitter, the rhinestones, the gayness, all of it.
39:00Thank you, Sam.
39:01Thank you all so much.
39:02Up next, Suzy to Beep, Beep, Beep.
39:05Let's take a look at your publicity photos.
39:09Aw.
39:10Aw, that's cute.
39:12And now for your promotional video.
39:15Ahoy, sailor.
39:16It's me, drag race superstar Suzy Toot.
39:19And here in Vegas, anything goes.
39:22Come see me at Flamingo Vegas for the splashiest production number in Drag Race Live herstory.
39:28Sexy sailors tap dancing and, well, I can't give it all away just yet.
39:32That's for after the show.
39:35Toot, toot, beep, beep, Vegas ho.
39:37Wait, what did I just call me?
39:41All right, let's go to the judges.
39:42You are so extraordinarily talented.
39:45When I got to act opposite you in Ross Matthews vs. the Duck, right away, I thought, this is an actress.
39:51So, when we have a challenge, like, sell the Vegas show, you know how to do the gig.
39:57Except you did anything goes.
39:59It wasn't Vegas, it wasn't even Reno.
40:01And then, in the number, they were all doing this Vegas thing, and you were still in a talkie in 1927.
40:07So, it just didn't go.
40:09Also, the character shoes almost killed me.
40:11If you're going to wear character shoes, make your Leducas sparkle.
40:14I will say that what I saw in your interview that really blew me away, I wrote down, so incredibly self-reflective.
40:20And that's a quality that will take you as an artist into so many different places.
40:24So, I see someone who's completely committed to what they're doing, and that you can bring everywhere.
40:29You were so charming in your interview.
40:31I loved it.
40:31I just want you to look at yourself as a full picture, and not one thing.
40:37During this competition, you did venture into different makeup styles, and we were just gobsmacked when we saw that.
40:43But we never did get the full, I'm away from it, Susie, too.
40:47You know, I felt like with the semifinals and with this, it would be like a return to form, but more polished, and it would be spectacular and amazing, and oh my god, we love you.
40:58And it didn't read.
41:01You set the bar very high.
41:03You're so talented, you have a huge future ahead, and you have no doubt you're going to get on Broadway.
41:06I just want it to be more than one show.
41:08I want you to last, and get your Tony, and do all the things in your dreams.
41:11But you have to put yourself out of that comfort zone.
41:14Thank you, Queens.
41:15I think we've heard enough.
41:16While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.
41:22Okay, now, just between us, squirrel friends, there is a lot to discuss tonight, and a lot is on the line.
41:27So, let's focus on this week's challenge and how it relates to their overall journey, starting with Jules Sparkles.
41:34Quite honestly, I think she was my favorite.
41:36In the gift shop, I thought she was fantastic.
41:38That Cher hair is gorgeous on her.
41:40She knew the choreo, she was smiling, she was having a great time.
41:43On the runway, Jules Sparkles sparkled.
41:45To quote her promotional video, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting, ting.
41:48I'd see that show in a minute.
41:49Sense of humor, a little wink-wink, nudge-nudge, a little sex appeal.
41:52She had it all.
41:52Well, I think Jules has got star power, humor, and an ability to transform herself.
41:57And these are all things, to me, that put you at the top of the game.
42:00Lexi Love.
42:01Here's the thing with Lexi Love.
42:02She has shown out on the runway every single time.
42:07Tonight was no exception.
42:08I loved that opulent outerwear that she wore.
42:11I'm in awe of the essence of I Will Never Not Be Me of Lexi.
42:15Her sass, her bounce, her joy.
42:17Yes.
42:17In the promotional video, I wouldn't go see that show.
42:21I would not.
42:22But she really shined in this gift shop number.
42:26Could not take my eyes off of her.
42:27I had to force myself to look at the other girls.
42:29And normally, I'd be forcing myself to look at the dancers.
42:32I couldn't even do that.
42:34On your nerves.
42:35The one-on-one interview.
42:36Now, y'all had such a problem with her North Carolina Passive Wife outfit.
42:39I actually loved it.
42:40She consciously said, you know what?
42:41I'm going to do a daytime talk show look.
42:44It was a wig.
42:45Daytime wig, Ross.
42:46Daytime wig.
42:46That should be a middle-of-the-night wig.
42:47Is what that should be.
42:48But what worked for me was her story in the interview.
42:52She's talked about what it felt like being the cook in the back of the kitchen wanting
42:56to be in the light on the stage.
42:58I think about that a lot.
42:59Because I, you know, I worked at McDonald's, registered drive-thru and grill.
43:02Triple threat.
43:02And I would think, one day, I'm going to be on TV talking about how I used to flip burgers.
43:07Hello.
43:08And that runway look was everything in a bag of chips.
43:10And they were Doritos.
43:11So, you know.
43:12Yeah.
43:12In the gift shop number, she was fantastic.
43:16Anya is a star.
43:17She really has a presence that will not be ignored.
43:21All right.
43:22Sam Starr.
43:22Listen.
43:23The million-watt smile, there's a sense of she swallowed the sun in a way.
43:26Mm-hmm.
43:26That just kind of comes through in all the different moments.
43:29Tonight on the runway, I thought that was real pretty.
43:32Yes, it did age her.
43:32Ross, you are correct.
43:33But she is a pageant girl, and that is pageant beauty right there.
43:37Did you hear what Michelle said?
43:38I was right.
43:38Yeah?
43:39One thing wrong.
43:41Here's the deal.
43:41That promo video was not good.
43:42Do you remember Cal Worthington?
43:44Oh, yeah.
43:44Oh, my God.
43:44Come on down.
43:45I got used cars.
43:46We got a Chevy Ford.
43:47Nothing.
43:47Right.
43:49It was that.
43:49It had nothing to do with the Vegas live show.
43:52In the photo session, the outfit didn't allow her to do much more than what we saw.
43:57But we got some good pictures out of it.
43:58She has had very few missteps in this competition.
44:02Susie Toot.
44:03Susie Toot was a tough one for me tonight, y'all.
44:06She was talking about how she saw herself like as a return to form, but really, she never
44:10left the form.
44:12Why would you wear an Anything Goes bathing suit in your promo pic for Vegas?
44:16Also, the outfit she wore in the gift shop number was jarring.
44:19They won't be selling those at the gift shop.
44:20No.
44:22I will say, in the interview, she showed me, again, why I love her so much.
44:26Total pro, so good at what she does.
44:28If she were to win this crown, she would represent this show so beautifully.
44:32My own experience is that knowing how to make the right choices in the right moments
44:36is part of what we do and what this moment is.
44:41And she made a choice that didn't work.
44:43You know?
44:43So this was one moment.
44:45It's one swan doesn't make a summer.
44:47One swallow doesn't make a summer.
44:48Is that the expression?
44:49Michelle Visage has bought the rights to a book called One Swallow Does Not a Summer Make.
44:551987 was a good year.
44:57It was a good year.
44:58Absolutely.
44:58We all know that year.
44:59Yeah, we do.
45:01Yeah, we do.
45:02Silence.
45:03I have made my decision.
45:04Bring back my girls.
45:07Welcome back, queens.
45:08I've made some decisions.
45:12Lexi Love.
45:13This week, you were the queen of hearts.
45:16On your nerve.
45:18You served a royal flush.
45:20Jules, you brought the Vegas Sparkle.
45:29Jules Sparkles.
45:30Ding, ding.
45:32Condragulations.
45:33You are the winner of this week's challenge.
45:35Oh, my God.
45:37Congratulations, Jules.
45:38Oh, my God.
45:39Good job, bitch.
45:40Thank you so much.
45:41I can't believe this is happening.
45:43I won the last challenge on Drag Race.
45:47You've won a cash tip of $5,000 courtesy of JJ Malibu.
45:53And an invitation to join the cast of RuPaul's Drag Race Live at the Flamingo Las Vegas.
45:58I'm an appart attacker.
45:59And you'll be moving forward to the grand finale.
46:03Oh, my God.
46:04Thank you so much.
46:05You may step to the back of the stage.
46:07I did it!
46:10I fucking did it!
46:12I'm making it to the finale!
46:16Lexi.
46:17Anya.
46:18You're safe.
46:19And you are both moving forward to the grand finale.
46:24I am so proud of myself that I made it through this motherfucker.
46:32You may step to the back of the stage.
46:33Thank you, thank you.
46:34Coming into the competition, I was a small little birdie just born in the nest.
46:38And now, I am flying right to the finale.
46:44Sam Starr, Susie Toot, you are both winning queens.
46:49But tonight, the odds were not in your favor.
46:53I'm sorry, my dears, but you are both up for elimination.
46:56I am gutted, but I also feel a need to perform and prove myself after the critiques that I received.
47:05I have to destroy this number.
47:08I have to be in the finale.
47:12Two queens stand before me.
47:15Proud to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance of Love Child by Diana Ross and the Supremes.
47:22Ladies, this is your last chance.
47:25To impress me, save yourself from elimination.
47:29The time has come for you to lip-sync for your life.
47:42I literally cannot believe that this is happening.
47:45We finally just developed a friendship, but one of us has to go, and I refuse for it to be me.
47:53Good luck, and don't fuck it up.
47:57Hey, come on, Sam.
48:01That's it.
48:10You think that I don't feel love, but what I feel for you is real love.
48:15In others' eyes I see reflected, I hurt, scorn, rejected, love, child.
48:21Never meant to be, love, child.
48:24Don't get to me.
48:25So take a look at me.
48:27Started my life
48:28In an old, cold, run-down, damn, it's not.
48:33My father left, he never even mattered.
48:36Mom, I shared the guilt's my mama knew.
48:39So afraid that others knew I had no matter.
48:42This love we're contemplating is worth the pain of waiting will only end up hating.
48:49The child we made we created, oh, child.
48:52It's not as cool in a warm-torn dress that somebody threw out.
48:59I knew the way it felt to always live and doubt to be without the sinful things.
49:04So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me.
49:07Come on, come on, come on, come on.
49:08I don't think that I don't need you.
49:10I'm never quite as cool, afraid, ashamed, misunderstood, but I'll always love you.
49:22We are always loved, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
49:28I'm always love you.
49:32I'm always loved, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh.
49:44Queens, I've made my decision.
49:47Come on, you.
49:49Sam Starr, Shantae, you stay.
50:01Sam, you are moving forward to the grand finale.
50:07You may join the other girls.
50:11Thank God.
50:13Susie Toot, I'll see you on Broadway.
50:17Now, sashay away.
50:21Thank you so much.
50:23You are about to see some big things from little Susie.
50:26I promise you that.
50:29Yes, Susie.
50:31I love you so much.
50:34RuPaul, I have just one thing to say.
50:39Yes, Susie.
50:42That was Morris Code for I'm going to key your car.
50:45Yes.
50:47I feel disappointed because I really wanted to win, but I'm not disappointed in myself.
50:54Did not think I was going to have to do this.
50:57I'm going to take away some amazing friendships.
51:00I love those girls so, so much.
51:02And I'm going to keep on fucking doing me.
51:05This has been the experience of a lifetime.
51:08I'm so thankful for every single part of it.
51:10If you were a fan of Susie Toot, you have so much to look forward to.
51:13Because this is the very beginning of what is about to come.
51:19And good luck to the girls going on for the crown.
51:21Your victory will be tainted by the fact that I should have had it.
51:23Peace out, Mom.
51:29My final four queens.
51:31Condragulations.
51:32We are just two weeks away from the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race, where we are
51:40going to crown ourselves a winner, baby.
51:43And now I want to hear from you, our fans.
51:47Are you team Lexi Love?
51:49Are you team Jewel Sparkles?
51:51Are you team Anya Nerf?
51:54Or are you team Sam Star?
51:56Let your voice be heard using hashtag Drag Race.
52:00Honey, I'm coming to the finale with a vengeance.
52:02If my pussy wasn't on fire before, it's got firecrackers shoved up it now, okay?
52:06And tune in next week when all the eliminated queens return to compete in a lip sync Lala Perusa.
52:17Until then, remember this.
52:19If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love somebody else?
52:22Can I get an amen up in here?
52:24Amen!
52:25All right, now let the music play.
