Orion, also in black and white, has a stronger point of view inspired by Heathers, but the look is a little cluttered and confused. Kerri also utilizes the traditional print combined with hot pink stockings for a perfectly fine, but anonymous look. Alyssa, Bosco, and June stick with graphic black and white zebra, with each reflecting their unique personas: fierce, avant-garde, and bougie, respectively. The first group has the subcategory of zebra print. There are so many looks that they barely get screentime, despite all the effort to make them, and they are difficult to recall after so much visual stimulation. Now how to write about so much in so little time/space. Motivated to pursue drag by her mother, Orion is constructing her look as an homage to her. Orion discloses that her mother suffered from bipolar depression and ended her own life. These lighter moments are followed by darker revelations between the queens when the topic of family comes up. At first it seems like a possible fight is brewing, until Angeria reveals that she feels very close with Lady Camden as her favorite contestant. ![]() This is confirmed from the frock that she struggles to make.Īs Angeria and Willow discuss getting to know each other and describe their unique drag perspectives, Lady Camden interrupts, mocking Angeria’s accent. It’s a little bizarre and unnecessary, giving the impression that June isn’t in the most focused state of mind. A greater tension seems to have developed between June and Orion as June pulls Orion aside to say she isn’t pleased that she is back in the competition and then reverses that saying she deserves it and then threatens to kick her out again. On the other hand, Kornbread learns she has been calling Daya Betty by the wrong name all day, who takes it in stride. They’ve made an early and strong connection as friends. It is a wonderful moment that shows Willow’s perseverance as well as Kornbread’s kindness as she assists Willow. But this much content begs the questions: When is too much (in a good way) too much (in a bad way)?ĭuring construction of their garments, it becomes clear that Willow’s condition mentioned in the first episode is a hindrance for her. ![]() This season makes herstory by presenting the most looks ever, a staggering 42. However, in the double-digit era, the Ball has been moved to the front end of the season, likely to present as many looks as possible. In the first nine seasons, the Ball was traditionally saved for later episodes. The Ball Challenge is, along with the Makeover Challenge, one of the few challenges that has appeared in every season of RuPaul’s Drag Race from its conception. ![]() The main challenge is revealed to be the Ball, inspired by the canonical Paris Is Burning. If they unwrap the single golden bar, it will serve as their ticket back into the race. Each competitor selects a RuPaul Chocolate Bar that they will unwrap upon their elimination. There is little time to dwell on that when RuPaul introduces another twist via the mini-challenge. There is a palpable and understandable tension among some of the queens about their return, most notably from June. First, we learn that the first two eliminations have been revoked as Orion and Daya re-enter the competition. The next day they all energetically enter the workroom as a united cast, but RuPaul and the producers have a couple twists to present. ![]()
