Ummmm....major spoilers for the finale and honestly, it might not be premature to call this a shark jump for the show as a whole.

  Hide contents

The Top 4 had a sudden death lipsync competition at the finale, to decide which two queens could win the whole competition. They only filmed one outcome for the first round of this lipsync, so we know who both of the eliminated queens are.

  Hide contents

Shea and Trinity were both eliminated in a tie for third place. Peppermint and Sasha are the Top 2 and the only queens who are able to win the crown.

Trinity was eliminated by Peppermint in a lipsync to "Stronger" by Britney Spears.

Shea was eliminated by Sasha in a lipsync to "So Emotional" by Whitney Houston.

The final lipsync was Peppermint and Sasha doing "It's Not Right, But It's Okay" by Whitney Houston.

This picture is from their "Top 2" announcement. Both had their individual wins filmed afterwards. Shea and Trinity did not have wins filmed at all.

 

I am completely incensed. This producer fuckery is so blatant. They just want Shea and Trinity both back for All Stars 3, so they can get "redemption" for their stolen crowns.

 

 

 

 

tbh i'm living for this mess, we all know who is going to win kii

[Lust 9,161]

im still so shocked wtf is this

 i can see the production scrambling to find a way to get sasha to win because she'd be a better winner on paper  how does this even work with the supposed "i wanna hear what the fans have to say" shit when at the end it literally comes down to lipsyncs? this is fucking insane i love it, they snapped

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?  This season might've been predictable, but there was two clear options for the winner for a reason, because Shea and Trinity deserved the crown more than Sasha and Peppermint.  I'm actually fuming because Peppermint should've been one of the first outs and now she's top two? Wtf.

Don't count on it just yet. A lot of people are thinking this fuckery was done so the show could make a bunch of headlines and raise its profile with its first trans winner.

nn yeah she's probably gonna get the crown, even if out of the two I'd much prefer Sasha to take it! I'm so baffled at this entire thing tho, I for sure thought it was between Trinity and Shea

sad but not shocked to see that my queen Trinity won't win  

 

[Ruthless Love 7,324]

Not upset by who got eliminated; Shea and Trinity were annoying AF.  I'm hoping for Sasha to win, but would not be hurt if Peppermint won, as well!

You may not have liked either of them, but you can't deny that this bait-and-switch is without a doubt one of the shadiest producer-made decisions the show has ever had and robbed the two best performing competitors of their chance at the title. This is in no way a fair or equitable decision and neither of the Top 2 deserve to win, based on their challenge records compared to the third placers.

Went to a Trixie show tonight! She's definitely got talents that I was unaware of. A damn good show overall and all the more impressive, given that she carried it entirely on her own for like an hour.

 

Shame about most of the local queens who were her opening acts, though. One did VV Brown's Shark in the Water with a poncho that revealed into a paper cutout of a shark and it was like...the single most awkwardly executed reveal I've ever seen. She was feeling herself for sure, though.

That show was my first! Most of the queens don't tend to swing by my neck of the woods super often.

That's exciting! None of them come around my area either.. I really want to go the the NYC Drag Con, but unfortunately I don't think I would be able to..

Why on earth is the reunion NOT on Netflix?

[Hyun. 56,252]

Spoiler

what kind of witch-hunt towards Valentina jfc  Aja and Farrah going in on Val in the middle of her speech was kind of really cringy ngl! also Farrah's little drama felt very silly too

in the end the queens are right about one thing tho, if you want to make an award for Miss Congeniality then let the queens themselves vote, not fans who don't know the queens at all. i felt so bad for Val with the whole "clap for fan favorite!!!" thing but the bitch kept up her smile like the true villain she is, i lived! this reunion was a mess and i loved it

edit: okay this was filmed after the finale

Spoiler

that explains Shea being so bitter whew
