"Literally every person in the building told me to go home and I didn't... And that's really funny."
- Bosco (The majority of her set stimmed from "I've been told to go home more than this person when...")
Before we get into the gig, I completely sidestepped last week's positive point. See, Ms. Marcia had been telling me she had some work pants for me and I… Well, I was starting to think she was lying cuz I hadn't seen them yet. I mean, it was fine. It's not like she owned me anything. Only thing is, the ones I was sporting had holes all up in them and I tend to wear mine until they start coming apart at the seams *sobs in poverty* Cut to last week…
She shows up with this gigantic Aldi bag and I'm thinking it's all pants so I put it in the office and go back to my shift. I was so sure that I offered Sigrid a pair. When I got home and started going through the bag, I immediately cursed myself for being impatient (Knowing damn well that this year's theme is patience) It was worth the wait! Not only did I inherit 3pairs of pants, I also inherited some new work shirts AND 3 pairs of shoes! The shoes are a big deal cuz I go through shoes pretty quick due to my work weights and I wear those 'til they no longer have grip cause work shoes hit almost at $30 a pop unless I can catch them on sale. (Thank you Walmart.com for seeing me through my weightloss journey)
So yeah, she kept almost $100 in my pocket and I'm saying my pocket cuz we know damn well she wasn't chilling out in the thrift store for those pants and for 3 pairs of shoes, they look like they've hardly touched a floor *laughs*
And now…
I've never seen anyone as happy being eliminated as Jorgeous was this episode but you know why I was happy? When RuPaul said two people were going home. *sighs* It woulda been more impressive during the Lipsync Smackdown, but hey, hoes going home is hoes going home. I knew there was a good chance Jorgeous wasn't going to make it after they said they were doing a roast. DeJa tho'... DeJa… What happened?! I have been laughing with her all season and not only that, they weren't feeling her runway, but this was my 1st time loving everything. I do agree that the top of it was a little too big, but for DeJa, I kinda didn't care. I really, really liked her runway this week.
Stick a pin in this, we're gonna hafta back up for a moment cuz there was a mini challenge this week and no Pit Crew in sight 😭😭😭
Anyway, they had to paint a mural that believe it or not, exists in Nashville like, right now. It's of RuPaul and Dolly Parton. Team Dolly deserved their win cuz Team RuPaul has a bone to pick with RuPaul and it showed up all through their work. Not only was there a harsh contour line in her face, DeJa pinched her nose in so little that I thought Michael Jackson blessed that art from beyond the grave. I kid! I kid! (No I'm not 😅😅😅)
And now, it's time to pluck those week's fits and fashions from our local Instagram so that we can talk about the roast of Ross Matthews cuz even tho' nobody was "OMC, 10yrs from now, I'm still gonna be thinking about this" funny, this was a decent roast.
^QUEEN (Somebody pointed out that we've been seeing those blades all season. I never noticed 🤷🤷🤷)
Roast: Even tho' ALOT of her set felt recycled, I laughed the whole way through and tho' I agree with her win, I feel as if it should have been a split win. With who else? Hold on, we'll get there. That "If you hate my corsets then you'll love her swim suits" line before introducing Jorgeous was savage tho'
^Queen (This is the ugliest gorgeous thing I have ever seen)
Roast: You know what I liked about Angie's set? The confidence. And I don't think they gave enough attention to her calling the guest judge, Dolce Sloan (Spelling? Also, she was a great guest judge. When she told Jorgeous "Enough with the compliments, let's get to the roast... I knew I'd discovered the love of my life) a diet Lizzo and asking if she was feeling okay as hell. That shit was fucking funny!
^Queen (As I've already stated, fuck the judges. I love this!)
Roast: DeJa kept every joke they told her not to keep and for one of them, had the balls to add to it. It do take nerve. Her funniest was when she was about to get off stage and said "And now, a queen who needs no introduction..." And walked off instead of introducing Lady Camden. Now that shit was comedy gold!
^QUEEN (UGH... This is so fucking gorgeous! I saw some people saying it would have been better had she been en point, but nah... Had she done that, it woulda been "Didn't Brooklyn already do this on Season 11?!" You made the right call, Camden)
Roast: Speaking of Lady Camden, had they given her a shared win with Bosco, I would have been cool with it. I think what kept it away from her was her roast of Ross' booty hole echoing straight things back gay if you yell into it. Yeah, her set was really good, but I'm pretty sure that's what did her in
^Queen (I thought it was cuter with the leather jacket and hate tho')
Roast: Honestly, I think maybe Jorgeous slipped a letter to production or some shit cuz no amount of editing made her bottom placement make sense. I laughed at her than I did at DeJa that's for sure
^QUEEN (I have been DYING to talk about this! I wanna make this sooooooooo bad! I've gotta get to work sifting through thrift stores and shit cuz I don't want an exact copy but anything close would change my life 💜💜💜)
Roast: Daya and DeJa should have been your bottom 2 cuz this was just gah-awful to watch. I was livid! I'm glad she was in the bottom tho' cuz I didn't mention it, but the lipsync was a lipsync and DeJa and Jorgeous might as well had not been there. Daya stays and you know what? As I said, I love me a villain so I'm glad she does
^Queen (Tho' I didn't notice the way her lips weren't placed all that great until Bob TDQ pointed it out, I appreciated that she kissed every queen who wanted one with those lips in Untucked.)
Roast: Now that I think about it, I would have enjoyed a dual win with her and Bosco too. My favorite roast was her saying Bosco was the love child of Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain, Daya was the love child of Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, and Lady Camden looked like a love child of someone's brother and sister.
Honestly, everybody got at least one solid chuckle outta me. Yeah, even Daya. Imma miss DeJa and Jorgeous 😭😭😭
Next week is the Girl Group challenge...
Oh, this is gonna be so good!!!
Later
PS: Mo's first home date was today. She keeps coming back here so I've started timing her. Her longest time was 35mins, the shortest being 2 1/2mins. She says Imma hafta give her time so I'm respecting her boundaries instead of slingshotting her from the nest. When I mentioned wanting to go to my room, she immediately went: "Why?" (I was gonna set up my cameras, but they didn't wanna play ball so I'm sitting out here in front of the oven like, as Mo put it "A black grandmother.") *sighs* I'm going to cherish these moments cuz there will come a day that she doesn't feel the need to come back here...
She'll be grown and with a life of her own
*sobs in growing up*
