Whatcha Packin': Vanessa Vanjie Mateo | S11 E12 | RuPaul's Drag Race 

Scnoot but she needs MUCH more time to improve, I mean like 5 years, she can still grow and get that Shangela Glow Up ✨

She is the Shangela of Season 11, lasted long but never won a challenge😢

Aldwin Dela Torre Shangela won a couple challenges in her season, but Vanjie made it farther than Shangela did in the competition.

@@aldwindelatorre5135 shangela won two challenges in season 3

Kelly Robinson “lasted long but never won a challenge” I was referring to Vanjie, sorry😅

SamTheCameronStan being a Libra I felt proud of that look

@@ItsJustMikee Same bitch. The Libra representation on Drag Race is everything.

ItsJustMikee yes me too! Libras know aesthetic

Imagine if Adore was on this season

Yep fellow Libra

Giving me Shangela vibes, Vanjie just needs some more time and to be on a future All Star season when she's ready

The second coming of shangela

@@eddiezuniga1268 nah, everyone in the industry hates Shangela.

@@eddiezuniga1268, YAASS GAWD.... I feel you!

She's a verse honey

WE STAN A PROGRESSIVE QUEEN.

@@midnitehour1 girl there was no progression, most if not all of her looks were hideous and she only stayed because of her relationship with brooke was a great storyline in the eyes of the producers

joseluis28ful ❤️❤️

​@@yun-jinlee3782 Don't get it twisted. Vanjie redeemed herself the FIRST episode, and went on to slay the Britney TV challenge and the makeover. She OWNED the zodiac runway and had many great looks, despite the repeated silhouettes. Vanjie deserved at least TWO wins this season but was fucked over by storylines. She has had TWO iconic entrances and TWO iconic exits. Your fave could never.

@@yun-jinlee3782 she most definetly did not stay because of brooke. Her personality alone makes great televison. She is a one woman show.

Fucking amen to this. Vanjie and Plastique got so much shit for doing the same characters, which is such a valid critique but honestly Silky kept on doing the same thing over and over again and then wearing the same boring ass dresses like ??

Foster silky should have went home episodes ago they kept her for drama

Even though I like her *now*, I’d say Silk is judged by different standards. But the same could be said of my fav: Plastique. She had the exact same silhouette all through. The judging was inconsistent all around.

Foster all i see is Tea. Unsweet. Piping hot.

I think another part of that is that Vanjie had coin from the previous season, so they were expecting her to be more polished than the other girls

Karen A right I noticed that lol at the end I was like.... now, what was said?! Lol love her to death.

She is of one my absolute favorites of all time. I laugh so hard when she talks. I hang in her every word. Ughs. I need so much more of miss vanjiiiiiiie!

it can be said for Michelle that she was so tough on Vanjie because she believes in her way more than she did a lot of the other queens and really wanted her to go all the way - her annoyance with Vanjie always struck me as a mentor, or even a mother, getting frustrated at their kid for not giving it the full effort and living up the potential that they know they're capable of. and as for Silky, if my memory serves me right, she was the only one to really actually call out Silky on her sloppiness ("roach", lashes, pads, etc.). It's the other judges that were very willing to turn a blind eye to it because of her personality.

@@catalindegaard5803 agreed, and I doubt Michelle actually can do anything about if silky stays or goes, unfortunately :/

@@vildeve818 yeah its all RuPaul and the producers. Michelle Visage has no part on saying who stays over RuPaul's decisions.

@Shinobu Tsurubushi and Brooke is? 😂

@Shinobu Tsurubushi 🤡🤡

I think what was a shame was that in the challenges she didn't always have the confidence to be so unapologetically herself which might have drawn her back which is a big fat fkn shame

Are you talking about Vanjie or Michelle? xD

James Chris Silky is always Silky, but Vanjie is supposed to be someone else?

MommyOfZoeAndLiam Michelle clocked her in that in the magic show episode

same!! Silky wants to be famous so bad, but for Vanjie it's so effortless for her to be funny and Silky's like one of those kids that's like look at me, look at me!!!

very this!!

They're also making $ with the showmance and they know people will watch and want to know more gossips.

We're harder on the people we love the most and she just wanted the looks to level up to the larger than life persona. She def has the Alaska, Alyssa, Shangela etc kind of potential.

@@lookhowshegobbledthat 💯 ❤️ ❤️ 👏

Miss Vanjie for Mortal Kombat DLC @edboon make it happen

Fatality!

Taylor E DEAD.💀

😂😂😂

I know it's her thing, but Sasha's always so intense, even in short clips like the Watcha Packin' outro.... I wish she would be more cheerful sometimes lol

@@SMAnthonyW girl, huh?! NAVAHHH!! She is who she is & has never changed & I hope she never does.. Don't joke about that... HA!! Sasha is brilliance personified.

This comment is brilliant 😂😂😂 I snorted out some coffee

She's already one

I feel like shes gonna be in all stars and be the shangela of it. After that, she gonna become a legend

Juampi, she's already a legend, gurl

true, Shangela also had questionable looks and had to lipsync 3 times before she got eliminated top 5 in s3. While I do think Shangela definitely has more rational thinking to get through the conpetition then Vanjie, Vanjie was giving it more personality wise and was very impuslive (almost irrational), but it worked for her to get to Top 5x

Gurrl pls Shangela is talented!!

Nope I don't buy it.... She was doing really bad comparing with other girls it was obvious producer's nd ru was just dragging her in the competition for her personality

@@Ishuuuxix shut up meg

Addicted you got me addicted if that’s the case then so is Silky

She was being dragged to the top

She and Silky were dragged to the top because producers know they stir drama. Not because of talent. Vanjie should have went home 7th.

I know she made me laugh at least once every week

Her funniest one for me was when Ra’jah was going to scrub the lipstick off and she was screaming fast forward it scarlet 😂

I loved guantamino bay lol @@lisamac1986

Hehehe, got that too😂

AAAAAAAAAHHHHH

That's sooo true !

Personality wise I agree, but in the sense of her run on drag race, it’s 100% shangela

They had to bring pads for her because she gained 30 pound due to the stress... That's not her fault

That's what happened to Shangela

@@nicolaberti7698 oh yeah! I just realize that and the thing is that both of them are memorable!

YAAAAS, MAMMA

Yup and her and Alyssa both placed 5th

Jon b hahaha same 🤣👌🏼

VANJIE GONNA, WHAT!? VANJIE GONNA, ROLL! VANJIE GONNA GIVE IT TO YA! Sorry for all caps.

Don't apologize. Vangie speaks in all caps and sometimes italics 😂

🤣😂😂😂😭😭

Omg 😂😂😂😂

Oof I know right x.x

i'm only now watching s11, and the whole branjie breakup is making me way sadder than it should, being a relationship that lasted 4 months 2 years ago

Fun and fresh orange is the new Vanjie!! *cue song* “The animal the animal...trap trap trap till the cage is full.. the cage is FULL day is new and everyone is waiting, waiting on you but youuve got tiiiiime!! BUT YOU GOT TIIIIME!!”

Phi Phi realness

Looks hot

Makes sense if you remember the 'orange is the new black extra' from the season 11 finale

There was so much more unpolished looks from this season uglier than the barbie corset 🍵

soju 🤢

I think Michelle is just trying to defend herself for getting VVM kicked off too early lol

Lisa Riv agreed. Kalorie should have been the first to go that season

@@candy26sb i mean she completely killed vanjie in the lipsync tho

Comin back a year later... 😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭 Loved them together ♥️

Yes! That looks so much cooler than the green dress. And what a story

weeone01 zachly. i loved when Michelle said ROUND TWO and Vanjie goes “FIGHT!” i’m loling

YES ! YES ! YES ! Very THAT !!!!

But then they would’ve said “it another bathing suit” 😭😭

True.

True but the drag on Drag Race is honestly so elevated compared to wear it was in season six.

If it was other queen, it would be a villan editing...like the Vixen. But her charisma trumps all.

I know! I sorta wish that Vanjie would narrate every season from now on 😂😂

Yasss their chemistry is really great

InstrumentManiac she is funny and has a great personality

*lose

Fuck you're right !

King Darius I knew something was different and could not think of what it was.

King Darius the hair indicates to me that this was filmed last fall

Her hair looks fresh

Back when we were young and naive...

well....

No you haven't, they're not an item anymore but I wonder if they went on holiday before their break up though🤔

no lol they're not even together anymore

Yes they are together! You guys obviously don’t follow them on social media and missed out on all the smooching #branjie lives!

think they took a break prior to the season airing but after it aired they got back together lol

@@yvonneburns2786 LIARRRRRR

Yassssss!!!!! (I’m waving around like one of those blow up gas station gumbies btw!) God I love Vanjie. Her MJB lip sync was so damn good. SOOOOO GOOD!!! ‘Baby I was exorcised, I was risen!’ Ughs- so good!

She's a mitochondria

Absolutely ♥️🔥♥️

And then she'll end final 4 on an Allstars

And then she will be robbed

6 years later she will make it on All-Stars 17 and will make it to top 4 and then get robbed

Khristian Ford right I’m so upset

​@@butchqueensupreme3597 at this rate it's going to be All Stars 101 by the time of 6 years

It basically is, she says one thing and they end up in the bottom two

NO! I can’t stand her.

At this point it already is

Pancake 52 Shut up, idiot.

Eunice Braga i was looking to see if anyone else noticed this!!
