Scarlett BoBo has never been in the bottom and is coming off a late-season ball win.
Scarlett BoBo, repeatedly referred to as punk, is punk in the way Debby Ryan inRadio Rebelis punk.
BoBo is punk if aReal Housewifegetting some fresh JuvaDerm done before hosting Big Apple Circus is punk.
And they have good reason to be worried.
Scarlett BoBo, meanwhile, is full-tone deaf.
The answer is Not.
Just Canadian media personalities living in the moment.
Jeffrey says something about manifesting, and my mind wandered to Katie Holmess newThe Secretmovie.
I wonder if I can torrent it?
ButDrag Racebenefits from cartwheels, clownery, and confessionals.
Do dancers do this?
It sounds particularly Commonwealth-y.
What a special, unique guest for the coronation!
The back-up dancers in their leather harnesses.
The Miss Cleo Call Me Now!
She was simply born sexy.
Scarletteatsthe stage on her verse, flippin and dippin and stompin all over.
When she switches up the tempo and goes War paint on and Im battle ready…
I left my own body a little bit in a good way.
The runway category is Coronation Eleganza, a.k.a.
I cannot look away from this Princess Fiona fantasy.
Scarlett is servings-sour candy in her black gown with hot pinklining.
A beautiful garment, ruined once more by Scarlett sticking her tongue out and putting up rock-and-roll hands.
Then, all of this seasons queens get to walk the runway in order of elimination.
Anastarzia is a standout and brought her own crown because she knows her early elimination was bull.
Lemon is refined, and the judges looked so happy to see her.
And Jimbo is a big gay pinata with a court jester reveal.
When will Jimbo and Crystal Methyd meet up and combine their powers?
Thats whatIdlike to know.
Is this not how its done?
Was it a stage direction?
Does Scarlett BoBo reallyneedto point out for a 15th time that shes the only one who hasnt lip-synced yet?
Rita has an otherworldly glow under the lights, and she reveals a pantsuit.
Scarlett BoBo is getting athletic on the stage, kicking and twirling, with a bodysuit reveal.
When she slides across the stage, even I felt her rock-star fantasy.
(Oh, and of course Jimbos in the background bopping along.)
But Priyanka has something the other two dont: She is expressive.
She can switch from comedy twirling a long braid, shaking her booty to real sincerity.
She feels the song and projects it out to the judges and the audience.
Im proud of Scarlett for really shining in the final challenge and lip-sync.
I wish Ritaworkedfor it a bit more in this LSFYL.
Brooke Lynn Hytes announces the winner in a truly perfect finale moment, saying, Whats her name?
Love Priyankas branding paying off from the get-go!
Love that the scepter matched her dress!
Love that everyone shouted her name out and then she hugged Lemon!
I do believe the right queen won, and thatCanadas Drag Racehad a landmark first season.
Its simply the best.
And I really hope Priyankas year of hotel stays is deferrable.
Stand-Oots:
What the hell is Rita Baga wearing to this rehearsal?
Its notThe Matrix!There is a hat, there is this leather jacket with a pleather shirt underneath.
Ive never been more confused.
And Ive been in the closettwice.
The whip sound effect.
And call me Diane von Furstenberg because that is aWRAPon this season ofCanadas Drag Racerecaps.
I dont know about you, but its been like the only bright spot inmyquarantine.
Merci and thank you for joining me on this journey to the North.
Now whats my name?
