it's me Busalina Jolie and welcome back to all right and today oh God I miss saying
that in drag we're gonna be reviewing episode nine if RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season
eight who do we appreciate today our queens were challenged to roast Carson Kressley and
the runway category was snow bunny so we'll be breaking down each Queen's performance in the
episode as I saw it as well as taking a peek through some tweets shared by Alexis Kandy and
Lala concerning what happened to this episode and how it was intertwined with last week's
complications and Alexis has a lot more to say so buckle up cause it's about to get hot in here
first up the gag of the Season as it turns out it was not only Alexis who
pulled Lala's lipstick last week in fact it was a unanimous vote to send her home
yet Alexis Michelle has definitely been getting the brunt of the fans unhappiness online so I'm
bringing this up again to say let's not harass people over a reality television
show as much as we may disagree with with or not appreciate a particular decision
kind of reminds me of when Naomi sent Manila home back on All-Stars 4 when in
fact had Monet exchange won the lip sync she would have pulled manila's lipstick as well
just to play Devil's Advocate with myself of course it's easy to say that if there
was going to be one person who was going to save la la last week it seemingly would have
been Alexis Michelle and indeed some of the Queens even bring this up to her this week
and her only response really is yes I did reassure Lala in the work room but I didn't
make any promises which to me just feels like watching Alexis dig her hole deeper
and deeper with the rest of the Queens like girl they are not gonna trust you after this
especially when you're coming up with more and more reasons about why you sent her home
but on to what she did this week on the runway for her snow bunny look she's giving us a little
snow bunny that got lost in Santa's sack and this look is pretty young and flirty in a lot
of different ways that I think Alexis often forgets to incorporate into her drag she has
this very serious approach and we have seen mean many times this season on the runway that boils
down to her wearing lots of pretty gowns but this is so fun for her and I love the campy
details of the giant sackhole around her head and hats as the train flowing behind her I think
stylistically the only thing missing for me in this look would have been a larger chunkier belt
which maybe could have been made out of the same shiny material that was complimenting her face
but what was she carrying in that bag... Lala Ri's hopes and dreams perhaps? anyway this look is hot
and in the challenge in the roasty roast Alexis gets to choose the order of the Queens today
because she won last week and her only response about how she chose the order was that she wanted
to choose an order that best worked for her which I think totally makes sense but I suspect her real
reason was wanting to get her set out of the way and maybe slightly forgotten against the
three very funny people that were gonna come after her because I think going after any
one of these comedy Queens would have been been tough but concerning her jokes she was a little
hit or miss the first half of her set opens with a roast of Jimbo making fun of her large
chest plate large ears and then transitioning into making fun of Kandy's large ego which by
the end of this sequence did get a laugh out of the judges and some of the audience but I
think this opener was so flat for her because she was making jokes about Jimbo's appearance
yet the appearance she was making fun of was not what we were actually seeing or what the
audience was seeing on the stage not to mention I think it's kind of hard to make fun of Kandy's
face as being one only a mother can love when she is beat to hell and back girl that mug is painted
that said after we get through all of the awkward stumbling in like the first three quarters of her
set she actually ends with I think one of the funnier jokes of the whole night where she made
fun of Carson's lengthy show credits and told him he didn't have to say yes to everything and
then made a joke about the book title does this book make my butt look big where the bunch line
was nothing we'll make that flat but look big and honestly I had to laugh so the first part of her
performance was a rot but it really did warm up to a hot by the end of it

and before we go into the next Queen I have to talk about the segment of the episode where
Katya came into the work room she starts stirring the pot and we learn how down bad Alexis truly
is chills Katya about her first love of the competition la la ri which as far as I could
tell from watching the show as a viewer looked a little unrequited not to mention Alexis you
know stabbed you in the back last episode and tossed her aside but out with the old and in
with the new her new crush is Kandy Muse who she goes on to say in a confessional is like radiant
and special and now like with their agreement she feels so close to her and I can only Wonder while
watching Alexis profess her love about Kandy, was her crush on Lala ever even real or is she just
looking for camera time like why does she feel the need to announce that she's got a crush on a queen
in the work room at all times and why are her crushes only on people that she has alliances with
and we did discuss the truth that bubbled up online about why Alexis sent LaLa Home
ultimately boiling down to her not wanting to make Ru mad but she did tweet some more about
the situation over the past couple days saying things like this I understand the kids take this
show Extra serious but some of y'all adults have serious growing up to do making snap judgments
about strangers is low and thinking you know someone based on the way they've come across
on a reality show is naive and she then tweeted this out I am forever a lalari Stan period but
some people calling out my Integrity or saying my word means nothing is ridic because I said
and I am forever grateful and won't forget her kindness but even in untucked I made it clear
guaranteed save wasn't for sure so check my words which court read replied writing nah you tried
it and Alexa said because you were there and saw everything Kornbread finally wrote girl calm down
we all know what happens when you go on a TV show people form opinions in my opinion is you tried it
and next up Jessica Wild who in her Snow Bunny look is giving me kind of like Farrah Fawcett
and Charlie's Angels meets Formula One race car fantasy like more than it's giving snow bunny I'm
just not necessarily getting that she was up in the cabin sitting by the fire after skiing and you
know I was looking for a man to take back to the hotel room even with a giant snowflake on her Cape
But ultimately I think the bigger issue is this look doesn't feel glitzy or extravagant enough
for all-stars when compared I think with some of the other stuff on the runway tonight which
is not to say she doesn't look good I think she looks very pretty here it's just not my favorite
look so I'm gonna give it a soft rock but in the challenge oh my God I would pay to watch Jessica
Wild read the phone book not joking she's just one of those people who has a way of speaking
and thinking that is sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally hilarious plus I think
her delivery of stand-up comedy was really unique among all the Queens tonight she had
this pattern of you didn't really know where she was going and then she slaps you with a
punch line she's like Carson is a multi-faceted artist or that's what he thinks he is and then
follow that up with he's a TV host actor writer producer and this one is the funniest a dancer
I love the way she combined roasting different people all in one joke several different times
like saying Carson's drag name should be Sparky Visage named in honor of his two favorite animals
like I was just so thrilled to see Jessica do so well in stand-up comedy which has to be one
of the most difficult things ever especially considering English as a second language for
her and when she was originally on the show she says that she really didn't know the language at
all and seeing her in this full circle moment as a fan just feels really great this performance was
hot and next off Kandaliza Muse who on the runway I love this actual outfit I think it's really cute
kind of giving me Paris Hilton Vibes and I love the way that it is kind of a body suit kind of
like a two-piece bathing suit three-piece I should say but it's like connected with these chains and
it feels really unique and fresh and this look very much meets the brief for me plus I think
complements Kandy's vision for her Runway package as a whole the only thing I've gotta that's why I
know I don't like the flat boot on the runway I really don't says the drag queen who never
leaves her house I can have an opinion because you know this is an All-Stars final four Runway
so I'm gonna give it a hot on the outfit but a rot because of the boots and half hot half rot
is also kind of how I felt about her set tonight her opening was a little rough she takes the mic
after Jessica and then makes a joke about how it was hard to understand her which ironically is
the exact problem Kandy had been dealing with the whole episode in rehearsals with Michelle
Visage she then goes into a joke sequence about Jimbo kind of making the same observations that
Alexis did saying Jimbo looks like a capital P and again I think it's really difficult to make
jokes like this when the person you're making the jokes about does not actively look the way you're
describing in the Joe plus some of the jokes are just kind of insults without a bunch line like
when she says about Jimbo it looks like money can't buy talent because like also again she's
won three challenges how can you make a joke about her not having talent that whole thing I get what
she was doing it just didn't come across as funny but I will compliment her and say she
remained just as confident delivering the unfunny parts of her set as she did delivering the funny
ones she had two really solid jokes in there about crab legs and ginger Minge and the uh k
word and person being equestrian those were great if you know spoiled for us as viewers by the drag
race editors but overall I would consider her set successful so I give her a very safe hot here next
up it's jumbo and on the runway she's giving us a little Cindy Lou and I've got to say the level
of extravagance glamor and fashion that I think she brought to this look in the simple relatively
simple category of snow bunny wow wow wow like no not every Runway from every Queen can be amazing
and expensive and Rich and all this stuff but what a way for Jimbo to just completely run laps around
every single girl in the competition tonight like the roast wasn't enough she also had to
burn them in the runway category this is beautiful I love the feathers I also love how it evokes icy
Mountain caps and snow bunny without giving super obvious references does this look felt
like a Redemption from Jimbo for the snowball looks that she served on Canada's Drag Race
season one the episode where she was sent home I mean look at the difference the glow up like
sickening literally sickening this look is hot Grinch Stole Christmas and Jimbo stole my heart
the very next day she gave it away and in the challenge so she did Joan Rivers and we've seen
characters in Drag Race roasts before like you know Coco being RuPaul's cousin back on season
five or whatever family relation she was but this was the first time I think we've ever seen
somebody in a roast portray a real life person and not just any real life person but Joan Rivers and
to tell jokes as one of the most famous comics of all time may she rest in peace and have it go so
well that is why this was so great and she was so successful I think because she truly embodied Joan
she left not one wig unsnatched in that room there was a joke of Kandy and Hooked on Phonics Jessica
and her hairy item and oh my God the jokes about Ru's catheter and little scooter that she rides
in on I don't think anyone could ever have made jokes like that about Ru besides Jimbo as Joan
Rivers there is no way in hell like y'all remember what happened when Utica asked RuPaul to stand up
only Jimbo is Joan could do that and really just considered on like jokes per second she had the
most out of anyone where I think there is also small room for critique She was rattling through
some of those jokes in the first half of her set so quickly that it was almost hard to keep up but
she did end with more confidence and I think that must have just been nerves for doing what she was
doing she took a risk and it paid off this was so of course the wind goes to Jimbo making this her
fourth win in his competition girl Jimbo has swept this competition and for the bottom two
this episode big twist everyone's in the bottom who did not win so Kandy Alexis and Jessica are
up for elimination and Jimbo comes out for her lip sync dressed as the spooky ghost character
that she did in the UK versus the world talent show and this is a character that RuPaul I don't
think loves is the right word is obsessed with this was another Smart Choice from Jimbo tonight
she now has lost what six lip syncs across her grace Legacy and I think this was her saying if
I can't succeed in a lip sync trying to be serious or or lip syncing in a traditional way I'm gonna
do what I do best and that's comedy and it works I don't think this was the best lip sync ever right
like in terms of lip sync performance but that wasn't the point it really was Jimbo saying I'm
just gonna do whatever the hell I want and you're gonna love it and Ru did and she wins the lip sync
I did react to this lip sync as well as the roast in an exclusive reaction video over on my patreon
which is my members only website at patreon.com Bussy Queen and you can become a patron of the
Bussy Queen Channel by clicking the link in the description of this video when you'll do you'll

like my reactions which also include lots and lots of discussions sometimes as much as 40 minutes of
discussion girl the content it's there eat it up click the link join go watch it thanks but I will
say it was kind of a shame to have silky an actual lip sync assassin on a lip sync like this where
the point was not even about lip syncing it was just about Jimbo making RuPaul laugh and finally
winning a lip sync for herself but on the Jimbo's choice of lipstick she reveals she has chosen
Alexis Michelle to go home and this was I think a really easy decision for Jimbo considering Alexis
got the worst critiques tonight and she didn't just get the worst critiques tonight but like
almost got no warmth from the judges every other Queen got some combination of here was an area
for improvement but we loved it or you were just flat out amazing plus we also have the alliance
of jumbo and Kandy working in the background as well as Jimbo now knowing for sure that whatever
Alexis says in terms of saving you or this or that doesn't matter she's gonna do what she
wants to do and whatever serves her best so also yet against considered I think Jimbo did make the
best competitive choice and choice for the actual outcome of the episode and and the gag or lack
of gag about the other Queen's choices was the group also unanimously chose to eliminate Alexis
Michelle again not surprising considering the shenanigans she's pulled like even Kandy admits
that she yeah told Alexis whatever she needed to hear last week and then later makes an observation
about how she remembers what Alexis did to Lala which honestly is pure comedy at this point
considering Alexis thinks that she's got some sort of alliance with Kandy after what happened
last week while Kandy literally does not give not one F but again all of this is reality TV so let's
enjoy it as such and maybe I was reading into it a little too much at this point in the episode but
Alexis Michelle's goodbye to Rupaul was weird RuPaul's response to Alexis saying thanks for
letting me be a part of your family was cold to me RuPaul was like looking at her realizes
Alexis said something did she even listen to what she said who knows and then smiles and
like opens her eyes bigger and again maybe that's me reading into it but I think it's obvious who
those favorites are and I don't think Alexis was one of them because honestly I think she really
did okay in the challenge and this would have been an episode if there was going to be one where Ru
could have saved everybody everyone did at least okay and that is rare to say for a roast you smell
burnt toast yo [ __ ] shout out to Gia Metric roast my favorite of all time and of course I'd
love to know what y'all thought about everything in the comments below oh and it's for hottest Hots
I'm gonna give it to Jimbo on the runway and Jimbo in the challenge and I also asked my patrons to
