Thank you to everyone who made this my most viewed video ever! (By a WIDE margin) I will be recording next week's LSFYL and elimination but it won't be at Metropolitan so the audience will be different. I hope you like it!
I know I'm from Seattle and I was worried for her, because we all know Aja it's a great dancer but then my husband told me wait because not everything it's about splits and splots! so happy for her!
The song worked so well for her. Dela turned the manic laughs and lines of the song as her own and made fun of herself as a comedy queen doing gangster gestures.
Aja slayed the first half of the song but then used up all her tricks so by the 2nd half, Dela completely owned it and that's why she won. Winning a lip sync is like great sex, Slow start-Big finish.
Watch EXO 'KO KO BOP' MV on RU-vid To Climax! And also cause the whole variety show, i think rupaul got tired of seeing tricks xD a well deserved win for bendelacreme. And i agree with the elimination. Morgan should've played smart not bitchy/cocky. She should've kept her mouth shut of her plans and did what Alaska did in All Stars 2.
Just like Trinity vs. Peppermint. From the start Trinity was so strong, pulling all the tricks and was on track to win, but then fizzled out towards the end. It is the end of the lipsync that counts because Ru is going to judge based on how she feels at the end. Do something impressive the 2nd half and Ru will remember it better.
Watch EXO 'KO KO BOP' MV on RU-vid To Climax! She has done the spinning split in every drag race lip sync, I’m glad she didn’t win, Dela found a way to make a song that’s not really her thing and apply her campiness to it to great effect
its like aja vs. nina last season. aja is a great dancer but her beat and lip sync is still not on point unlike Dela or Nina who took time to feel the song
As soon as I saw the song choice I KNEW Aja was going to win, but Ben left me gagging. So happy she managed to surprise us and it's hilarious seeing her perform to something so outside her comfort zone.
I think if Aja spaced out everything she did her lip-syncs would be a lot better. She tends to use all her best tricks at the beginning which makes you lose interest by the end.
danielisntreal as sick of this song as I am it's one of the best choices they've made for songs. They need to spend this budget on good songs this time to illicit great performances. Look at Into it these two were. Who the fuck would have seen Dela killing it!
Tainted Life I like that the song gives freedom to either be a choreography, sexual, or campy performance so any of the Queens would've done great at it. not all the choices of songs do that.
Here’s my 2 coins on this lip sync: this song was perfect for Aja’s ball style of drag and lip syncing, so it would have been an easy one for her to win; she lost because Dela took a song that wasn’t her drag style and made it her style, which was far more impactful than slaying a song you were already going to slay.
they probably chose this song to make sure bendela didnt win this episode or something, but then she won and they were like "omfg she could be a frontrunner"
I rememebered that I laughed too haha but then I realized maybe Ill hold my laughter in case she is the queen to get her Ru-venge. But if not, then I'll laugh again 😜
tim Morgan literally said she was going to eliminate the strongest queen if she had the power and Ben just didn't want to be eliminated if she was in the bottom
Getting rid of Morgan was the best choice honestly since he was planning on getting rid of the strongest competitors. We don't need another repeat of All Stars 2!
Fernando Sanchez Uh yea it pretty much was. Rolaskatox dominated the whole season with their aliance and sent home Tatiana and Alyssa Edwards not once, but TWICE and they were the two of the best there!
John Freita Honestly, i dont think Morgan deserved bottom 2. Tbh I kinda disliked Dela's talent show performance. But damn this first episode was fucking everything
Evan G. Shes on my top 3 to win. I hope though that the elimination process doesn't get to her though. She's trying so hard to not be shady that it's shaking her. She needs to just own it and she doesnt have to explain herself so much.
People be like "Morgan was robbed." Bish Morgan only *looked* better than Chi Chi, she hardly did shit with her talent except say "why you mad." Did she even dance? Can't remember. 💅🏻
Morgan wasn't robbed, she sent herself home, she told BenDelaCreme, she's sending home the winners, Ben was a winner, aka Morgan was saying " i'll send you home Ben," Ben was smart
Femme Fatale Oh yes I was surprised why Milk wasn’t on the bottom, but I still feel Morgan had the lamest performance of all them. At least Chi Chi danced better and multitasked with the baton. Morgan just looked prettier being more lackluster.
I really do wish Ben didn’t quit, girl, she just got bored and was like: “This is too fucking easy and I’m winning too much, let’s give this other girls the chance.” 😂
OMFG this lip-sync was incredible! Shooketh to the core, it's so funny! They both were amazing but Bendela just made me cackle xD Thanks so much for uploading this! And the audience were incredible
Nah, she is a different kinda queen, she dont do back flips its not about that all the time. She does different shit ,her performance is creative. Ru understands Milk
Yes I think 3 people should’ve been in the bottom. I didn’t really enjoy her performance or whatever that was. She just strutted on the stage and put on some cardboard outfits although they looked nice
I get it, they clearly edit out Aja a lot..m but damn Ben de La is sooo fucking funny... A white curvy suburban woman in her burlesque outfit, lipsynch to Nicki Minaj song... I died.
henny Bendela is honestly playing the game and using the Morgan excuse to get rid of her cause she know that she is strong competitor and her act was stronger than Chi chi's. You aint fooling me Ben
Salty, you act like ru didn’t have anything to do with the election she could have picked Aja. Let’s see next week who Aja picked. And also bendela is not fooling anyone that’s her character, if it was Morgan she would have done the same because that’s what she said she’d do!!!!!!
Jesus Velueta well yeah that's my point she's thinking about herself but she's using that consensus excuse between all the queens to justify her decision to give the impression that she's nice and made the right decision.
A lot of people were doing dancing as their talent though, so I think it's hard not to compare Chi Chi and Morgan's performance to Aja and Kennedy's. I didn't mind Milks because it was something different, so I can respect that
not really, how can you be as seasoned Morgan working a professional stage with all the resources you could need for success and you still couldn't command the stage, Chi Chi might not make the best choices but she has charisma in spades
Chi chi should have went. She looked crappy and performed the weakest. Also she clearly has the least to show out of the cast. The least development since her season. Morgan would have made it more interesting. Chi chi will get chopped soon anyways. At least Morgan took risks and was fun to look at.
i felt so many emotions from this song, i first thought " ugh, this song is awful, no disrespect to sir mixalot or nicki minaj, " then i realized, this was the lip sync that was needed, was worried for Ben, then i was worried for Aja, then i was just living then laughing!
Sure, I didn't expect Ben to be the one to send Morgan home over her strategy. But SOMEONE was going to. You can't tell everyone your cut-throat strategy, and not expect people to make their own moves accordingly, to take out that threat.
