Welcome to RuPaul's Drag Race Rejudged! Here, we go through seasons of drag race and rejudge them in a (generally) fairer way, as well as analyze other aspects of drag race.
I'd say that Trixie's win was unexpected until we found out that the eliminated queens would be deciding the winner. Something that has NEVER happened before or since. Trixie was pretty mediocre through most of All Stars 3. After Bendela left - most thought that Ru would want to crown Shangela. Shangela won three challenges. Trixie won ZERO. Kennedy received more points in the votes for the win than Trixie!! It makes no sense to this day. This one was for the internet.
angeria 100% deserved the crown, the main issue is really just storyline, people would have always been upset about roxxxy losing, but i feel that the producers just completely failed angeria in the storyline department. it would've been more rewarding seeing roxxxy win in the real version of the season, the narrative the producers were telling us was "roxxxy andrews should win" but for whatever reason the producers didn't make the season seem like it was building to an angeria win.
In my interpretation, Jimbo's paper look is like the queen/princess while the other two are her body guards/knight so their outfits do match it's just that the concept isn't explained
I will never stop saying that the producers of RPDR screwed Angeria over in a big way and made it so her win felt unearned. If they had just made an edit that FOCUSED on her or an edit that focused less on Roxxxy I am pretty sure people wouldn't be so upset about this and Angeria wouldn't be considered an undeserving winner.
I mean if AS9 WAS judged like this, I don't think Angie's win would have been as controversial. It was the EDIT that really messed things up in the end because Roxxxy was getting a winner's edit.
I have to say I agree with the editing that the producers have done when it came to AS9 and was completely surprised at what happened and didn't know how they thought that the edit was a good idea. Everything screamed towards Roxxxy winning and they focused on her completely with very little of Angie then out of nowhere she somehow wins after getting carried to the finale. Makes me wonder if they were tripping balls when they put the episodes together. I am not saying Angie isn't worthy of the win and that it was stolen from Roxxxy, but the edit made it clear that Roxxxy was gonna win before they decided to change course for some reason. It feels like it was done last minute because Roxxxy pissed off production without knowing it and they decided to crown Angeria. I just have no words about it. Because now we have people invalidating Angie's win and supposedly sending her hate.
When you said that Darienne Lake went on a rampage, I was worried that she did something to cancel herself. I WAITED 10 YEARS FOR HER TO COME BACK AND SHE WAS TREATED LIKE THAT.
I love her, BUT I do think she should’ve been in the bottom for the rusical. Her characterization was good but everyone else’s (except Salina’s) was leagues better
I’m good. Grad school is just brutal and having GAS & AS9 back to back killed my motivation. I plan to start making videos again for either S17 or AS10
I have a bit of a conspiracy theory here that I know people won't agree with but I believe all the times Mhi'ya was in the bottom was rigging on the part of production to get who they wanted out eliminated. That is why she was in the bottom SO MANY TIMES when she didn't deserve it and still survived over and over again.
i think lemon would do better than you gave her credit for!! i think she'd be comfortably safe for the ball based on her first two looks, potentially win the rusical over janey, and be high for snatch game over mo!
I don't think the season was rigged from the start either. From what I can gather first they were trying to put together two separate seasons where one was an early out and the other one was a runner-up season but when they couldn't get enough for either they just combined them.
To be fair I ended up going off of her when she went after Amanda but that is only because Amanda was my favorite and I felt Plane was just being a bitch to be one. But even after that I didn't HATE her at all and don't know why people were irrationally going after her. I will say I was glad that she lost to Nymphia or as my aunt calls her: Banana Banana.
I kind of love-hate Luxx. I think she is extremely talented and deserved her top spot; however, she’s kind of nasty. Like she’s not even 30 and she thinks shes the shit. Violet was very similar; however, Luxx never really communicated humility. Whereas, I believe Violets humility in the very end is what brought her the crown.
I have to wonder though. Was the jury twist in All Stars 3 just a way that the producers didn't have to give BeBe a second crown since she was already a winner and this was 4 seasons before All-Winners? They must have known that the eliminated queens probably wouldn't want to give BeBe a chance to win a second time. Shangela was just a casualty as she caused most of the eliminations and we got Trixie who deserved to be there but with Kennedy also who was the weakest out of all of them track record wise.
i’m so happy for angeria getting the win, but it really did feel out of nowhere since we were focusing so hard on roxxxy and her success in those last episodes. i would’ve been happy with either result, but i was SO SURE ms andrews was taking that crown
tomara and micheal murdered most of the cast, they felt the most well rounded. ginger was quite unmemorable for the first 3 episodes unfortunately maybe its the edit
I liked AS4/AS6 better than AS2 tbh. Also, if all stars would return to "every few years" it likely would be cancelled. As tv works now, shows are renewed on a yearly basis, the network would have to find a show to fill the gaps between seasons; and then, that show would awkwardly miss out on their timeslot so all stars can pop up? Unlikely. Unless the show moved to streaming only - if we want it to stay, it has to be a yearly thing. Pity they didnt follow the survivor format, and make all stars part of the original franchise.
Im glad that it was a non elim season in the end 😂😂 plastique going home basically over the one challenge she was not winning would have been a loss for all of us.
"Halal and Mocu lipsync to... Oh God ...Beauty And A Beat." Not gonna lie, I rewound that part several times just to hear the disgust in your voice. X) Did they at least keep the Nicki rap?
NOT I, still pissed offed. Take away the lip syncs for the crown. They set up the whole season for Sapphira throw it away. Sapphira shouldn’t have to go back to all stars to get a crown.
I like your video, but totally disagree in the snatch game episode, Monet said in her podcast with Bob she only chose Jorgeous because she was the worst, so she definitely would be in the bottom2
