00:09How you doing, misamores?
00:11Are you ready to see my cuckoo?
00:13Again?
00:16I'm back, misamores.
00:18Welcome back, Cynthia Lee Fontaine.
00:20Hashtag justice for cuckoo.
00:25Got me, Jesus.
00:35I'm back.
00:36Oh, my God.
00:38Welcome back, Cynthia.
00:40Oh, God.
00:42Congratulations.
00:42Thank you, doll.
00:44And congrats on you getting better with your health.
00:46It was a rollercoaster.
00:47Right, right.
00:47But, you know, I'm here.
00:49I was diagnosed with liver cancer stage 1.
00:51But I'm on remission, and I feel healthier as ever.
00:55My cuckoo is fantastic, girl.
00:57I'm not going to take that opportunity that RuPaul is giving to me in Crowned Head.
01:01This cuckoo is ready.
01:02This is home.
01:05I don't want to sound like a hater or anything, but, like, is this, like, a joke?
01:09Are you legitimately back, sis?
01:11Baby, I'm back.
01:13I know I'm Miss Congeniality, but I'm not came here to play games.
01:17I'm happy that Cynthia is getting a second chance.
01:21But on the other hand, I'm like, oh, we got this bitch that already knows this competition.
01:28And that can get you very, very far.
01:31I'm afraid of what's coming next.
01:33It just got real, honey.
01:35Ha-ha!
01:37I'm not very happy that Cynthia is back.
01:39She could take us out.
01:40Hallelujah, my pussy.
01:41My cuckoo is burning.
01:42I haven't yet seen this infamous cuckoo of yours.
01:45And I need to see it, because if you're going to say cuckoo around me, you want to make sure
01:49yours looks better than mine.
01:51Woo!
01:54The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race receives a one-year supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills Cosmetics
01:59and a cash prize of $100,000 with extra special guest judges, the B-52s.

02:27She's already the hair hers!
02:29If you can't love yourself, let me.
02:32I'm your biggest fan.
02:34You're number one!
02:36Yeah!
02:36Well, technically, only one of you can be number one.
02:39So the rest of you are like losers.
02:42Sorry about it.
02:47Hello, hello, hello!

02:55I am gagged.
02:57Woo!
03:00Woo!
03:00Woo!
03:00Lady Gaga was just here, and now Lisa Kudrow.
03:03I'm really diggin' season nine.
03:05Say hi to my pal Lisa Kudrow.
03:08Woo!
03:10Woo!
03:10Woo!
03:11I just ran into her on the lot, and she wanted to come over and say hello.
03:15Yeah, you guys look great.
03:16Oh, my God, stop.
03:19Lisa's character, Val Cherish, from the brilliant show, The Comeback, is the reason I say hello,
03:26hello, hello every time I walk into the workroom.
03:29Did you know that?
03:30No!
03:31I didn't know that.
03:32Neither did I.
03:35Now, Lisa, would you mind saying that one thing that you say for me, please?
03:41Well, I got it.
03:42Yeah.
03:43That was good, but can you say it happier?
03:45Well, I got it.
03:47Bigger, bigger.
03:48Bigger.
03:48Well, I got it.
03:49Yeah!
03:52Now I look like a fool.
03:55Lisa, come back any time.
03:57Okay, please.
03:58Thank you, Deli.
04:00Bye!
04:01Bye!
04:02Ladies, I have a little secret to tell you.
04:05When I was a little kid, I wanted to be a cheerleader.
04:09Yay!
04:11I loved the short skirts, the sassy comebacks, and the death drop splits.
04:15So, for this week's Maxi Challenge, you'll be competing in the biggest, baddest cheer battle
04:21in herstory.
04:22Hashtag QueerCheers.
04:24Yes!
04:25Yay!
04:26First, you need to divide into two squads.
04:29Nina Bonina Brown, you won last week's challenge, and Cynthia Lee Fontaine, you're back!
04:35So, I'm making you two head cheerleaders.
04:39Pick your squads.
04:41Nina.
04:42Shea Coulee.
04:42Oh, you're playing the race card.
04:47Cynthia.
04:48Kimura.
04:49Oh!
04:50My team is going to be the Cuckoo team.
04:52Alexis.
04:54Erika!
04:55No!
04:56Come on!
04:57Sasha.
04:58Yeah!
04:59Paramore.
05:00Oh!
05:01Team Cuckoo!
05:01Team Cuckoo!
05:02Let's go!
05:03I choose Sasha.
05:04Yes!
05:06Peppermint.
05:07Hi!
05:09Because I have a heart for the underdog, I choose James.
05:13Oh!
05:14Yeah!
05:15She was just doing community service.
05:17Oh!
05:18I'm feeling a little self-conscious about being labeled an underdog because I consider myself
05:24very much a competitor.
05:26All right!
05:27Welcome, Trini T!
05:28Yeah!
05:31Yeah!
05:32Yeah!
05:36Which means, Valentina, you're on Cuckoo's team.
05:39I feel like Valentina is picked last because she's already mentioned she's only been doing
05:43drag for 10 months, so I think we're all like, well, what can she bring?
05:49It doesn't feel good to be chosen last, but little do these queens know that in their
05:54team, they got the superstar.
05:57Team Nina Bonina Brown, you'll be cheering for the home team, RuPaul's Glamazon.
06:02Yes!
06:03Yes!
06:04And Team Cuckoo, you'll be cheering for our extra special guest judges, the B-52s!
06:11Yes!
06:13Kate, Fred, and Cindy gave me a big break when they cast me in their music video for Love
06:18Shack.
06:21All right, gentlemen, start your engines, and may the best woman win!
06:27So, anybody have any insight so far?
06:29There's literally, like, an adjective for every single queen, so I think we should go through
06:34that and assess, like, who matches the description the most.
06:37Yeah.
06:38I want to be sassy.
06:40Can I be flirty?
06:41You can have that.
06:42I think that now would be a great time for James to, if you want to, like...
06:46Yes, to really show himself.
06:48If you do snoozy in a funny way, it would be funny.
06:50But what about you?
06:51I think floozy is my role, because it's all about high energy, all about being over the top.
06:55Yeah, yeah.
06:56I want floozy.
06:57Ooh!
06:59Take snoozy, girl.
07:00It'll be hilarious.
07:02It'll be great.
07:03I'm not snoozy.
07:04I'm just, it's not me.
07:06Honestly, Alexis, I feel like even though, like, snoozy may be a challenge, I think it's
07:10a challenge that you can definitely rise to.
07:12The other girls assure me and encourage me that I can make snoozy work.
07:16You're right, girl.
07:18I can do any of these.
07:19Are you sure you're comfortable then?
07:21I'll do whatever.
07:22Yeah.
07:22And they're right.
07:23I'm an actress.
07:24Should we, like, stand up and do it?
07:26Just to have, like, some, like, flavor?
07:26Yeah, do you want to get it off of me?
07:28Real call.
07:29I'm Charlie.
07:29I'm Boozy.
07:30I'm Alexis.
07:31I'm Snoozy.
07:33James.
07:33I'm Juza.
07:36I'm Aja.
07:37I'm Sassy.
07:38I'm Nina.
07:39I'm Assy.
07:40I'm James.
07:41And I'm Floo.
07:42I'm James.
07:42And I'm a floozy.
07:44Wait, wait, wait, wait.
07:45I don't think your part comes in that late.
07:46You gotta jump right in after me.
07:48It's got a slow beat to it.
07:49No, but you have to do the first half.
07:51You start in time, and then you stretch the floozy.
07:54I'm Charlie.
07:55I'm Boozy.
07:56I'm Alexis.
07:56I'm Sloozy.
07:58And I'm James.
07:59And I'm a floozy.
08:01Captain, may I speak out of turn for a little bit?
08:04Of course.
08:04Girl, you gotta sell floozy.
08:05If you want it to be the floozy, you gotta be the floozy.
08:07All right.
08:07I'm not seeing it yet, okay?
08:09I want to encourage you.
08:10I'm just saying, like, do it.
08:11Do it, girl.
08:12Come forward.
08:13James doesn't seem to be here mentally.
08:17And this is not the time to be figuring out how to get your mind in the game.
08:22It already has to be there.
08:23This is gonna be a long day.
08:26Coming up.
08:27Oh, my God.
08:29I cannot believe what they are asking us to do.
08:34There's gonna be a severe injury on this episode.
08:42All right, guys.
08:43Five, six, seven, eight.
08:45Let's go!
08:46Today's maxi challenge is a straight-up bring-it-on style cheer battle, bitch.
08:52Why don't we do it one more time?
08:53Okay, okay, okay.
08:54I'm gonna sing it with you so that we can get it in time.
08:56Let's do it again.
08:57This is not a song crazy, but what if we go back to your idea you had before?
09:00Oh, you wanna switch?
09:03Let's try it.
09:03Do you wanna try that?
09:04Okay.
09:05Okay.
09:05Because that way if I'm coming right behind somebody, it's all you're better for me to
09:07keep time.
09:08That's a good idea.
09:09Okay, so we're gonna switch now.
09:11We're gonna switch it out.
09:11The decision to have Alexis and James switch characters is the right decision.
09:15We're all thinking it's gonna be better for everyone concerned.
09:18I'm Charlie.
09:19I'm Boozy.
09:20James.
09:21I'm Boozy.
09:24We are actually rooting for James and want him to shine.
09:27But he's gonna have to believe in himself to really sell this challenge.
09:33One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
09:37It's time for rehearsal.
09:38One, two, three.
09:43My cuckoo is just shaking right now.
09:47Hi guys, I'm Dom.
09:49I'm a two-time world cheerleading champion and I'm here to teach you guys a competitive
09:53cheer routine.
09:53Alright.
09:54It's gonna consist of some tumbling, some jumping, some stunts.
09:58We're gonna have to work together, but you're also gonna have to learn how to stand out
10:01at the same time.
10:01We're gonna start it with stunting.
10:04I am so pissed.
10:06I don't even know who even does cartwheels anymore.
10:08It's not even the 80s.
10:09So what you're going to do is dip down on one, stand up, lock out your legs, squeeze your
10:15tush, and hold.
10:16Oh my gosh.
10:17Five, six, seven, eight, dip one, and three.
10:20Dip one, straight leg.
10:22Oh my god!
10:24I cannot believe what they are asking us to do.
10:28Dip one, bend three.
10:31Okay, make sure when you go back down, you reach for their shoulders.
10:34There's gonna be a severe injury on this episode.
10:36Valentina, ready?
10:37Dip one, up, three.
10:39I was literally shaking, but I said to myself, Valentina, when in doubt, smile.
10:46One, two, down, three.
10:49Okay, can we switch out the flyers now?
10:50Ready?
10:51And five, six, seven, eight, dip one, straight legs.
10:54Oh!
10:55Bitch, I'm scared of heights.
10:57Oh my god.
10:58This is scary.
10:59It's cool.
11:01If I fall, it's gonna rock out my face.
11:03Bend three.
11:04My face is definitely expensive, and I don't wanna mess that up.
11:08No, ma'am.
11:09Oh!
11:10That's not for me.
11:11We are feeling the pressure and the burn.
11:15Although the burn might be something else.
11:17Oh!
11:18All right!
11:21We're back in the workroom, and we're all frantically doing our part to get our looks ready for our
11:25cheer competition.
11:26We have our work cut out for us.
11:27We all have to look amazing.
11:29I don't have bloomers.
11:31But it's a bloomer.
11:35It sounds disgusting.
11:37I'm gonna wear tights.
11:38Yeah, but you still have to have panties on.
11:40No, I'm not wearing anything underneath.
11:43What?
11:44So if you go like this, it just looks like Barbie crotch?
11:47Why am I being attacked for being a woman?
11:49Women wear bloomers underneath their cheerleading skirts.
11:52Not the slutty ones.
11:54Why not wear panties?
11:57Ooh, Paul Glamazons.
11:58We're gonna teach you how to stunt so we can do some pyramids.
12:01Ready?
12:01And five, six, seven, eight.
12:03Dip one, two, and three.
12:05Should the inside of the palms be together?
12:08As close as you can.
12:08Okay.
12:09Don't think about looking straight forward.
12:10Turn your head to the side.
12:11You're gonna get a face full.
12:12That's not a problem.
12:14You think you got it?
12:17I'm thinking to myself,
12:19it's probably not the sport for people with an AARP membership.
12:22And dip one in three.
12:24Good.
12:25Straight arms.
12:25Try and lift those knees up to your chest.
12:27And five, six, seven, eight.
12:29Dip one, two, three.
12:30How we feeling?
12:32Fabulous.
12:33We're gonna need stunt doubles.
12:38You guys, I can't even believe I'm still stoning this.
12:40Like, this is hard labor work.
12:42This is why I pay people to do this.
12:45Stoning really does feed my soul.
12:47It does, me too.
12:47I love to put sparkle on everything.
12:49I think when you stone anything, it's just an excuse to look great without really even
12:53being great.
12:54Stoning is for ugly girls.
12:57Don't get me wrong, but I think all of us, we kind of grew up differently.
13:00You know, like, some of us love to, like, create things.
13:02Well, some of us don't love it.
13:04Some of us have to do this to survive.
13:06Sewing all day makes my back hurt, and I eventually get so creatively exhausted that
13:10I just despise looking at my crafting room.
13:13But I know that if I don't go in there, I'm not gonna be able to go to the buffet
13:16that I
13:17want to later.
13:19Sister, I'll take you to the buffet with me.
13:21Well, bitch, you take me to a buffet and I'll sew you something.
13:23So can you finish this for me then?
13:26Kimora is gorgeous, but that attitude.
13:29I'm getting tired, I'm getting thirsty, and I'm getting, like, anxiety right now.
13:34Not cute, girl.
13:36Ugh!
13:37Coming up.
13:37Wait.
13:38Ugh, this is my Virgen de Guadalupe.
13:40I've really been praying to her every single night.
13:44You crazy bitch.
13:53Ugh.
13:53Yay!
13:54Day two whores.
13:56Glamazons are gonna kick the beat for 52's asses.
14:00Come on, Glamazons.
14:00So today is the day we're about to perform this motherfucking cheer challenge.
14:07Wait.
14:08Girl!
14:09Do you really?
14:11Ugh, this is my Virgen de Guadalupe.
14:12I wish I could turn her on, but I've really been praying to her every single night just
14:16to watch over me and guide me through this process.
14:19Who, Madonna?
14:20No, La Virgen de Guadalupe.
14:24You crazy bitch.
14:25That's some crazy shit.
14:27Everybody gets to have a drag mom, but I feel like La Virgen de Guadalupe is my drag mom.
14:32She helped get me here.
14:33She's gonna help me win, too.
14:35La Virgen de Guadalupe, por favor, ayúdame.
14:37Please help me win this challenge.
14:38I need to win.
14:39La Virgen de Guadalupe.
14:42Did you do high school sports?
14:43I played tennis and then I did swimming and diving.
14:47And I think the diving kind of helped me out with this a little bit.
14:50Yeah.
14:51Girl, I did high school cheerleading.
14:52Yeah.
14:53We never did no step.
14:53Girl, it was a black high school.
14:55We were like.
14:56Guys.
14:57Wow.
15:00I'll never forget.
15:02I was in the gym with all the cheerleaders.
15:05Some of the girls were like, oh, what do you think about that basketball player over
15:08there?
15:09He was so fine.
15:12He was boring.
15:12Like gorgeous.
15:14Coco skin.
15:16And I was like, oh, he's cute.
15:17He's cute.
15:17And later on at lunch, I see the entire basketball team looking at me like, like I'm about to
15:23get it.
15:24So I get up and I'm like, let me get out of here early.
15:26I'm by myself in the stairwell.
15:28And the entire basketball team comes up the steps.
15:32And one of the boys beats the hell out of me.
15:35No, Pep.
15:36It's true.
15:38But afterwards, I was talking to the secretary.
15:41I told her what happened.
15:42And you know how high school offices have like all glass windows?
15:44Uh-huh.
15:45So I turn around and I swear the entire school was just there.
15:50It felt like a circle of love.
15:51Like people were crying.
15:53My friends were out there.
15:54So I felt pretty good.
15:55Yeah.
15:56And he got expelled.
15:57I stayed captain of the cheerleading squad.
15:59Come on.
16:00When I was in high school, I was singled out for being different.
16:03After that incident, I had strangers reaching out to me.
16:07And I knew right away that I was loved.
16:10And that felt great.
16:14Cynthia, your story really touched me because I have a lot of people in my family who have
16:20had cancer and like who have passed because of that.
16:24Oh my God.
16:24I just wanted to make sure that you're okay because I know your struggle was hard and it really
16:28touched my heart.
16:30Girl.
16:32It's a challenge.
16:34Everything was a real mess.
16:35I get my results and it was liver cancer stage one.
16:39So I was like, what?
16:41You know, I mean, I just, I was living my dream and now I need to face like liver cancer.
16:52I was sad.
16:54I was really sad.
16:57It's hard when you know that you have a disease that maybe probably could be, you know, the
17:01last days of your life.
17:02I mean, the immune system goes down.
17:04Yeah.
17:04So even a cold, it can possibly like kill you.
17:07So I mean.
17:07It's unreal to think that you could die.
17:12Yeah.
17:12At any moment.
17:13At any moment.
17:14But let me tell you, I'm in remission.
17:17Cynthia is living proof that cancer is not the end.
17:21Woo.
17:22Group hub.
17:22We need a group hub.
17:23If anything, she's stronger competing now.
17:26It has given her a drive to really succeed.
17:29And she's doing it with beauty and with a sense of humor.
17:33And that's the drag we need.
17:34Hashtag Peaking Cancer in the Cuckoo!
17:37Woo!
17:37Woo!
17:39Woo!
17:44Hey!
17:48Hey!
17:51Hey!
17:52Hey!
17:54Hey!
17:55Hey!
17:56Hey!
17:57Hey!
17:59Hey!
18:02Welcome to the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race.
18:05My head cheerleader, Michelle Visage.
18:08How's your head?
18:09Haven't had any complaints.
18:12And everybody's grooving because it's the B-52s.
18:16Hey, is your tin roof still rusted?
18:19Ooh, yeah.
18:21This week, our queens are competing
18:23in the biggest, baddest cheer battle ever.
18:26Let's check in with our very own Ross Matthews.
18:30Yes, Ru, this is so exciting.
18:32It smells like queen spirit.
18:34I'm actually literally gagging.
18:36Back to you.
18:38Thanks, Ross.
18:39We'll be watching.
18:40Gentlemen, start your engines
18:42and make the best woman win.
18:44Coming up.
18:55It's the RuPaul's Drag Race cheer battle extravaganza.
19:00RuPaul's Glamazons vs. the B-52 Bombers.
19:03RuPaul.
19:05I'm Aja.
19:06I'm Sassy.
19:07I'm Nina.
19:08I'm Effie.
19:08I'm Shay.
19:09I'm Flirty.
19:10I'm Sasha.
19:11I'm Dirty.
19:12I'm Charlie.
19:12I'm Boozy.
19:13I'm James.
19:14I'm Snoozy.
19:15I'm Alexis.
19:16And I'm a floozy.
19:18We are RuPaul's Glamazons.
19:20Got our tucking panties on.
19:21Our beat is unstoppable.
19:23Our wigs are unclockable.
19:24All right.
19:25Work it.
19:26Work it.
19:26All right.
19:27B-52 Bombers.
19:29Let's go.
19:30I'm Kuku.
19:31I'm Naughty.
19:32I'm Kimora.
19:32I'm Slutty.
19:33I'm Eureka.
19:34I'm Wacky.
19:35I'm Trinity.
19:35I'm Jackie.
19:36I'm Farrah.
19:37I'm Thorny.
19:38I'm Peppermint.
19:39I'm Corny.
19:39I'm Valentina.
19:41I'm also Corny.
19:43Our love starts are rocking.
19:45Our love is in the shack.
19:47We're roaming because we wanna.
19:48So haters step back.
19:50Beat, pick me, who?
19:51Not as cool as Ru.
19:52RuPaul is more fierce than Kate could ever be.
19:55More woman than Fred and more man than Tindy.
19:58RuPaul is shameless selling candy bars and more.
20:01She even had a perfume and it was called Whore.
20:06Your beehives busted.
20:08Your thumbs are too slow.
20:10You should go retire in a private item.
20:15And it's time for the tumbling passage.
20:29Gag, big girl.
20:30Come on, bitch.
20:31Yes.
20:32Holy fuck.
20:33I land and I feel my knee pop.
20:36But I knew there was no way I was stopping.
20:39Bitch, I'm on a roll.
20:41Well, now that was impressive.
20:44Valentina surprised me.
20:46I feel a little bit like, oh my God, I choose her last.
20:50But she came to sleep.
20:56Oh my God.
20:58Miss change, girl.
21:02Miss change, girl.
21:09There we go.
21:14Now the ladies will move on to the group dance.
21:16Are you ready?
21:29Here we go.
21:31Here we go.
21:38Five, six, seven, eight.
21:41Let's go.
21:51When I get all the way up to the top, I feel like, yes, I'm a cheerleader.
21:55Oh my God.
22:03The judges are going to have a tough time scoring this one.
22:06I feel bad for them.
22:07Oh, wait.
22:07I'm a judge.
22:10Category is white party realness.
22:13Nina Bonina Brown Zita Jones.
22:17When Nina Bonina Banana Osama Bin Laden Brown hits the runaway child, I'm a bad bitch.
22:23Hungry, hungry, hip pants.
22:26Alexis Michelle.
22:27Do these earrings make my ass look fat?
22:29I'm serving glamour, but I've got it turned on its ear just a little bit.
22:33Tin roof frosting.
22:37Shea Coulee.
22:38I'll have two vanilla cones, please.
22:40I'm serving you chocolate 60s bodacious babe.
22:44Remember when we used to do white lines?
22:49Charlie Hyde.
22:50Very Linda Evanston from Dynasty.
22:53The outfit is amazing.
22:54They look like a fashion illustration of a snow queen.
22:56You know, she's from the hood.
22:59Sasha Velour.
23:01I've taken a classic silhouette and updated it with a commitment to showing women who are strong.
23:07You know what they say about girls who wear white prom.
23:09True hooker.
23:12Aja.
23:12Where's my fava beans in Chianti?
23:15I believe that's a whitening strip, actually.
23:18I'm an Illuminati princess.
23:19They tried to silence me, and I'm like, no, bitch, I'm still going to talk.
23:23Now you color see me, now you don't.
23:26James Mansfield.
23:28Gentlemen prefer a white muff.
23:29My look is fun.
23:30It's campy.
23:32I look fabulous.
23:34The girl can't help it.
23:35Oh, I'm sure she can.
23:38Cynthia Lee Fontaine.
23:40Oh my goodness, I think I'm having a deja vu.
23:42I'm going to the most expensive white party ever.
23:46Okay?
23:47My fair cuckoo.
23:50Farrah Moon.
23:51I like the peekaboos.
23:53I'm giving you a little bit of ass, a little bit of class, and some broken glass.
23:57She is quite the hipster.
24:00Valentina.
24:02Nice day for a white wedding.
24:04I'm inspired by my mom and dad's wedding video.
24:07My mom was known as the beautiful bride in her hometown, and I want to tell you that story.
24:12If anybody has any objections, shut the fuck up.
24:16Trinity Taylor.
24:18I think it's UFO Landon.
24:20My ass looks really good in these white pants.
24:22They look like two snowballs just juggling.
24:24I hear she comes in peace.
24:29Kimora Black.
24:29Now that's my kind of patriotism.
24:32I'm going to a white party on a boat with hot sailors, and we're going to have fun.
24:36I don't think she'll sink, dude.
24:38She comes with her own flotation device.
24:41Peppermint.
24:42Ooh.
24:44Wintermint.
24:45I've chosen an Elvis Presley-inspired rock and roll extravaganza.
24:49That pearl necklace seems to be dripping.
24:53Eureka.
24:54Honey, it's milking time.
24:57I'm giving you glamour, androgynous, glamazonian, big tuna, fish.
25:02Eureka, like the vacuum cleaner?
25:03Yes, and she can suck.
25:06Maybe I won't have my mother watch this show.
25:10Coming up.
25:11You were so fun to watch.
25:13Space.
25:13Age.
25:14Fashion.
25:14I adore it.
25:15You're like a drug dealer.
25:16Give me a little dose.
25:17I wanted more.
25:24Welcome, ladies.
25:25This week you competed as teams, but you'll be judged as individuals.
25:30When I call your name, please step forward.
25:34Nina Bonina Brown.
25:35Alexis Michelle.
25:38Sasha Velour.
25:40Aja.
25:41Cynthia Lee Fontaine.
25:44Pheromone.
25:45Peppermint.
25:47Eureka.
25:49Ladies, you are safe.
25:51Oh, thank you.
25:53You may leave the stage.
25:59It's time for the judges' critiques.
26:02Starting with Shea Coulee.
26:04Tonight you are giving me this futuristic look with hair that harkens back to Barbarella,
26:10and I'm really feeling it.
26:11And the routine you did, you were fantastic.
26:13She did some amazing flips, and I made note of that.
26:16You can see the humor there, too.
26:17As a kid, I wanted to be like Dominique Dawes so bad, but my parents were like,
26:22uh, you can do that in the backyard.
26:23We ain't putting you in no lessons.
26:26Thank you, Shea Coulee.
26:27Next up, Charlie Hyde.
26:30I didn't remember you from the acrobatic thing.
26:33I tried to star everyone that I really thought stood out.
26:36Did Charlie have a star?
26:38No.
26:38But I'll tell you this, you seized me on the runway.
26:41This look is just so good.
26:45Up next, James Mansfield.
26:48Hi.
26:48The way you pad is glorious.
26:51You're giving me, like, saddlebagging hips.
26:53It's hot.
26:54But in the cheer, I don't remember you.
26:57And that's not good.
26:59I think you like to consider yourself a comedy queen, but I haven't found anything funny coming from you.
27:07I feel that you're unsure of yourself.
27:09You have to believe it in order to sell us.
27:12You do this airhead schtick.
27:13I think if you committed all the way, it'd be great.
27:15And I think that's what Michelle's getting at, is the confidence to commit 100%.
27:19And I feel like it's at 20%.
27:22Next up, Valentina.
27:24I love this virginal Latina bride down to the crossing of yourself.
27:29It was all so beautiful.
27:31All the way down to the nude and not white shoe.
27:34But we won't bring that up.
27:36Now, the cheerleading.
27:38What I loved the most was that even when the lights weren't on, I was watching you and you were
27:42fully in character.
27:43And it just, it was so, like, SNL moment.
27:46I found myself looking for you.
27:47You're like a drug dealer.
27:48You gave me a little dose.
27:49I wanted more.
27:50Keep it up.
27:51Or as you say in Spanish, I don't know how to say that.
27:55Next up, Trinity Taylor.
27:58You had the toughest job of all as the ultimate flyer.
28:01And you were so fun to watch.
28:03And I think this outfit's fantastic.
28:05Beyond Mugler.
28:07Up next, Kimora Black.
28:09What stood out to me was the wig you had on, but you didn't really stand out athletically.
28:15And that's not good.
28:17Tonight, probably my least favorite on the runway.
28:19If I looked at you, I'd automatically think nautical theme.
28:21I wish the gloves were white and the bra was white.
28:23I know it sounds like it's a lot of white, but it's a white party.
28:28Thank you, ladies.
28:29I think we've heard enough.
28:30While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.
28:36All right.
28:37Just between us squirrel friends, what do you think?
28:40Starting with Shea Coulee.
28:42I thought she was the best in the athletic department.
28:46And I thought she looked great tonight.
28:48I love that outfit.
28:49In terms of star quality, she has it.
28:51But I think she needs to have some kind of padding.
28:54She's got thighs.
28:55She ain't got no booty.
28:56All right.
28:57Let's move on to Charlie Hyde.
28:59In the cheerleading thing, she had this great character of boozy.
29:02You, out of everybody, Charlie, could have taken it all the way.
29:05But Charlie looked beautiful.
29:07Certainly carried herself well on the runway.
29:09I'm eager to see what she pulls out of her suitcase next.
29:12But she better pull personality out, too.
29:15James Mansfield.
29:16Listen, you got a name like James Mansfield.
29:18You better deliver.
29:19I used to watch the match game.
29:21And Jane Mansfield would come on every so often and had a wiggle in her walk.
29:26James needs more boom in his va-va.
29:28She wants to portray herself as this comedic character when I don't think that character's completely realized yet.
29:35James' audition tape was so funny.
29:38I got it.
29:39I understood the shtick.
29:40But I think that since she's been in this competition with the other girls, she's thrown off.
29:46Valentina.
29:46Valentina.
29:49As a cheerleader, she really stood out with her facial expressions.
29:52She just made you notice her.
29:54And I thought she was the best dressed tonight.
29:57I thought she was stunning.
29:58Michelle, you did clock her on her nude shoes.
30:00I'm sorry.
30:01I just couldn't let that go because she was so flawless, head to toe.
30:05Why wouldn't she put a white shoe on?
30:07Why would she throw a nude flunker?
30:07Well, maybe she was thinking something old, something new, something borrowed, something nude.
30:12Blue.
30:13Someone you blew.
30:17Trinity Taylor.
30:18I thought it was really impressive how both characters were completely different.
30:22I wouldn't have recognized her.
30:23Tonight on the Runway, though, it wasn't my favorite thing because we've kind of seen a lot of this over
30:26the years.
30:27I thought it was very original.
30:29Space age fashion.
30:30I mean, that's a total B-52.
30:32I adore it.
30:33Kimora Black.
30:34I didn't remember her from the competition, and that wasn't my favorite outfit.
30:39I thought she was a newbie.
30:40I know why you got that impression, because she paired so many different looks onto that one look.
30:45Right.
30:46Where someone who's a seasoned prostitute would have just chosen the nautical hat.
30:52It actually accented her inability to tell a story.
30:57She's got so much going for her.
30:58The look, the face, the body, the confidence on stage.
31:01But in terms of who are you as a performer?
31:04I don't know, but I know I want to know.
31:06All right.
31:07Silence.
31:08I've made my decision.
31:10Bring back my girls.
31:19Welcome back, ladies.
31:20Ladies, I've made some decisions.
31:24Che Coulay, you're safe.
31:30James Mansfield, on the runway, you gave us bombshell floozy, but your cheer routine was a little too snoozy.
31:40I'm sorry, my dear, but you're up for elimination.
31:43It's frustrating.
31:45What I'm trying to show the judges isn't translating, and I don't really know what else they want from me.
31:52Trinity Taylor, you're safe.
31:58Valentina, your cheer engaged us, and your bridal runway made me say, I do.
32:06Sissy Boomba, you're the winner of this week's challenge.
32:09You've won a custom wig wardrobe from Rockstar Wigs.
32:14Thank you so much.
32:15You may join the other girls.
32:17Charlie Hydes, you scored on the runway, but your cheer routine did not meet our squad goals.
32:25Kamara Black, in the cheer, you disappeared, and in white, you got red for being too blue.
32:32Charlie Hydes, you're safe.
32:37Thank you very much.
32:43Kamara Black, I'm sorry, my dear, but you're up for elimination.
32:49Two queens stand before me.
32:52Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance of Love Shack by the B-52s.
33:00Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself from elimination.
33:07The time has come to lip-sync for your life!
33:17Oh my god, it's the first lip-sync.
33:20It really starts to sink in.
33:21The pressure's on because I'm performing it in front of the B-52s themselves.
33:26To put me on the bottom two, first, James, watch out.
33:31Good luck, and don't fuck it up.
33:36If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that takes 15 miles to a...
33:43Love Shack!
33:45Love Shack, yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:48Heading down the Atlanta Highway.
33:54Looking for the love, get away.
34:00I got me a call, and we're heading on down to the Love Shack.
34:07I got me a Chrysler, and it's about 20, so hurry up and bring your shoebox money.
34:14The Love Shack is a little place where we can get together.
34:22Love Shack, baby, Love Shack, baby, Love Shack!
34:34Bang, bang, bang, on the door, baby!
34:38I can hear you!
34:41Bang, bang!
34:42On the door, baby!
34:44Bang, bang!
34:45Bang, bang, bang, bang!
34:47Bang, bang, bang!
34:47Your wife can run!
34:51Rusty!
34:52Love Shack, baby, Love Shack!
34:56Love Shack, baby, Love Shack!
35:06Ladies, I've made my decision.
35:13Kimora Black, Shantae, you stay.
35:18You may join the other girls.
35:22James Mansfield, we're all rooting for you.
35:27Now, sashay away.
35:32I came in first!
35:39Well, that didn't quite go exactly as I hoped it would.
35:43I wasn't fully representing myself, and that's my fault.
35:47But underneath all this glamorous drag, I'm still a human being, so be kind.
35:55Contragulations, ladies.
35:56And remember, if you can't love yourself, how in the head are you going to love somebody else?
36:01Can I get an amen up in here?
36:02Amen!
36:03All right, now let the music play.
