I'm curious to see what Monique says in the werk room in next week's ep, with more context. I couldn't with her and Juju reading all the girls while they were unpacking!

Baga's number did not wow me and tbh, they haven't done anything interesting or new with their drag since their season aired, other than spend more on their looks. Like, it's just more sequins. That's not elevating, that's not growing as an artist. Look at other UK girls, their artistry has gotten better, they've evolved, but Baga just got fillers and put more sequins on shit. Nothing about their runway was good either, like, they read Lemon for not being a winner's look but neither was Baga's and her song wasn't that great, she couldn't even lip sync her own fucking song!

That being said, I didn't think Lemon or Janey was going to win so I wasn't super invested in this week's elimination. If Juju, Pangina or Jimbo had been in the bottom I'd be more invested.

I LOVE JIMBO'S ENERGY! I really hope she goes far, but I'm really rooting for Pangina. I hope DRTH gets the traction it needs to give us a S3 already!

I was dying when Juju and Monique were being shady while untucking. This is gonna be a good season.

A season 3 was confirmed by Pangina back in July so it may air later this year.

that's what they've been saying but I haven't seen shit about it and LINE TV shut down/is shutting down so I don't know where it'll air now
