Previously on : Cookie Kunty and Keiona were crowned queens of the Time Ball, while Moon, mentally exhausted, decided to quit the competition. The queens are saddened by this sudden departure. “It is together that we are the strongest” is the message left by the Swiss. Heart on you Moon!
shrinks and puppets
Karl discovers a new job: narrow down for drag queens ! And he has a lot to do with a Keiona in the middle of a road trip, trying to flirt with him with Titanic reruns (“Draw me as one of your French girls, Jack”), a Cookie who dreams of being a pony or a Punani in full fit of tears! For her part, Mami Watta takes advantage of the session to take a nice refreshing nap.
“Puppets” Mini-Challenge: In this traditional Drag Race franchise challenge, the queens randomly draw a puppet in the image of one of their contestants. They have to personalize it and make us laugh with it. Mami Watta hates puppets: “Why do adults hold stuffed animals? “. Real question. The always impeccable Keiona fails with the puppet Mami Watta, due to lack of question and answer: but how is this possible? “It’s lost in the sauce. We hear crickets in the room. observes Sara Forever. Cookie gets along pretty well with Sara’s puppet, but as usual she’s a bit too bitchy. This is also why we love it! Punani mimics Keiona’s vocal ticsmade of “what and everything”, and she designed a ball to stretch as a nod to her runway show with her longest braid ever.
“Hello! I am a young woman full of energy and dynamic!!” Sara talks about Punani’s famous QR Code earrings, which caused a sensation last week. We learn that her boyfriend created them, and therefore that Punani is masked (sorry fans!).
If she didn’t want to do this challenge, Mami Watta gets along very well with the Cookie puppet. She humorously recalls all the problems she’s had with almost everyone. And to everyone’s surprise, Mami Watta wins the challenge. “Lick my feet, I’m the winner! ” he says, in all humility.
The ghosts have the slab
“Showtime” Maxi Challenge. : This week the queens have to perform to a song by Nicky Doll and thus reach the semi-finals, but there’s a twist! They learn itthey will form a girl band against the group of eliminated queens. Rose, Vespi, Kitty Space, Piche and Ginger Bitch have a unique opportunity to win back their place in the competition! In fact, Nicky Doll will choose the best of the group of eliminations and the worst of the group of queens in competition for a LE-GEN-DAIRE lip-sync! The jurors invited this week are the prodigies of fashion, Vittorio Weinsantoand the queen of feminist literature, Virginia Despentes. “I will explain to you who it is”, pass Cookie Kunty to Mami Watta!
Queens discuss ghosts: “Piche is the dancer of the group” notes Keiona. The latter takes the lead in managing the group’s choreography. We are in the middle of a western when our queens meet the eliminated queens who are determined to take their revenge. “He’s About to Get Into an R&B Battle” warn Keiona!
Drag, fun for young and old
In the workshop, Keiona explains that sometimes she performs in front of families, with children, just like cookie. Kids are much more relaxed than their parents when it comes to drag queens.“We dress up as children, we’re a bit like cartoon characters. There are no problems in themselves, they are created by others”.Biscuit says. A discussion that resonates with the recent controversies orchestrated by reactionary groups, which they do All to forbid drag queen shows for kids. A moral panic affecting many countries.
As the queens remind us, there are different kinds of shows. Some are for children, some are not, just inquire. These prejudices against drag shows labeled “sexual” continue to gain traction. The queens talk about the lawsuit filed on the drag of “perverting children or getting them to ask questions about gender”. For Punani, it simply is “A false debatewhich only illuminates a lack of open-mindedness”.
Maxi Challenge “Show” : It’s so nice to know that the great Virginie Despentes loves Drag Race. The lesbian writer explains: “I like princesses, I like glitter and I like bullshit.” Same girl! The time has come for “Les Revenantes” to shine on Nicky Doll’s title “Attention”. They give themselves but their performances lack cohesion, both in the dance and in their too different outfits. The “glitter” reminder is not enough. They should have opted for a strong color. And the levels are very disparate. Kitty Space, Vespi and Piche stand out.
The second groupnicknamed “The Fantastic 5”, it is more solidified, more precise in its movements, and their black suits throw some. We feel a stronger cohesion, due to the fact that these five queens have been working together for several weeks.
An unexpected return
Parade on the theme “Shine for us”: all dressed in rhinestones, Keiona revisits the figure of Nefertiti with a look inspired by Dior, Galliano era. Her plus: her hat is 60 cm tall! Mami Watta wears a surprising look, with a silver sequined bodice (we love nipple covers!), attached to a draped skirt. His face is hidden by a sequin hood. “I’m not just a face!” comments the queen. She says.
In a full sequined jumpsuit and sequined bikini, Cookie Kunty is a 70s swimmer, with a camp edge. Sara Forever hypnotizes with a total look in a sequined black dress that comes to his face. He has a revelation planned: the sequins change color when he passes his hands over them, until he adds them sequin makeup on the face. “Technically it’s amazing”observes Victor Weinsanto. punani

Punani parades in one of her signature looks – green dress and red wig – made in a total look with sequins, up to her face. He is magnificent!
Jury verdict : Kiddy Smile and Nicky Doll chide Keinoa for her sisterhood (?!) and the fact that on stage she looked more like a choreographer than a dancer. It’s actually both! Looking for the little beast… Victor Weinsanto had a crush on Mami Watta,”Beautiful”, “radiant”. On the other hand, Cookie Kunty is considered below the level of others. On the contrary, Sara receives a shower of compliments for her precise performance and her unforgettable look. Punani, funny and sexy during the show, also caught the attention of the judging panel.
Sara Forever gets her third win of the season and her place in the semifinals! Performed by Keiona, Punani and Mami Watta, all in the semifinals. Cookie Kunty must defend her place against Piche, voted best ghost queen. In episode 4, she lost lip sync with Ginger, in part because she couldn’t move in her dress from her Titanic. This time she is wearing an elasticated suit that leaves her complete freedom of movement.
The two queens clash on Shy’m’s “And then”. : Cookie relies on the interpretation against a spinning Piche, who obviously wants to give everything. She forgets to interpret the song, but we understand her stress. “You fell”love Nicky Doll, before choosing Piche, who returns to the competition. This is a breakthrough! This breakthrough has not left Twitter indifferent. Some fans are excited about this unexpected return (Drag Race US has used this process before), others disagree…
Who, who, who will be the queen?
Piche is back! But it can be a poisoned gift : The Queen has only one episode ahead of her to reach the final. I fear she is no match for her, having not had the time to perfect her drag like her competitors. I still love Punani so much, her humor, her style, her sex appeal. Throughout the competition, Keiona is simply the best ! And you, what are your analyses?
