The Drag Race GIF-Cap Extravaganza: 'Divine Inspiration'
Stink Flamingos, or Female Impersonator Trouble
Trixie's back and the goils have some definite opinions on it, meanwhile, Pearl's ambivalence is as tired as your grandma during the second half of Dancing with the Stars.
To release some tension -- or to turn it the fuck up for kicks -- Ru brings out the shade(s) for reading hour.
The Pubic Library
Nearly every queen manages to get a good read going...
Except humor-challenged Miss Fame
Though Pearl really tried it when she forgot whose show she was (barely) on.
And don't think I didn't clock Kennedy's Paris Is Burning rip-off.
What's the matter, are you going through it?
But in the end, Trixie nabbed the golden library card.
Which I'm assuming was stuffed in one of these Weaven Steven stunners.
Divining Women
Before closing the library, Ru gave the queens a little herstory lesson about the first drag superstar and John Waters muse, Divine.
In yet another complex comedy challenge, the gals had to divide into three teams to star in screen tests inspired by classic John Waters flicks. From the get-go, we know which team is not going to fare too well.
Stuck with each other and clearly out of their depth, The Plastics realized they were in for an uphill battle -- and sadly no one brought their hiking stilettos.
Meanwhile, Kennedy and Katya brought down not only the house but also a Christmas tree.
And Ginger and Trixie scrambled, fried and chewed up the scenery.
The RuVeal
Putting the "icon" in iconography.
Guest judge and man of the hour John Waters approved in his usual charmingly smarmy way.
While other guest judge Demi Lovato showed up with a two-tone high ponytail laid to the side so she was obviously ready to work.
The Runway
The cateogry is: The Ugliest Dress Ever. Leading Ru to offer this rare bit of advice.
Kennedy's take was Old Church Lady Who Needs Jesus, or at the Very Least, Support Hose
Trixie is in a drop-waist, off-the-shoulder 80s party-prom dress which is everything I live for so call me crazy.
Katya, unsurprisingly, delivered the ugly...
And her looks continued to have the best backstories.
Pearl missed the mark and looked adorable in her Wednesday Addams Japanese Schoolgirl Tease.
If Pearl missed the mark, Fame wasn't even aiming to begin with since she might have looked the best she's looked this season.
Don't show up looking flawless in what's essentually a gorgeous tent and try to call it anything but, or John Waters will read you down.
Violet Chacki owned the runway serving Phyllis Diller starring as Carol Channing in a late-70s South Beach revival of Hello, Dolly!
But thanks to her tour de force screen test, Ginger Minj won her third challenge.
I can't wait to see what she's going to do with her wig wardrobe from...
And the Bus She Was Ridden Over On
It was that time again, when Ru asked the other queens who deserved to be sent home. Kennedy provided the most sound argument I've heard in a long time.
After Fame was thrown under the bus, nearly every other queen jumped on to catch a ride the hell outta there before she and Pearl had to underwhelm the judges.
Life-Giving Lip Sync Moment
Honestly, I was hoping Ru would send both Pearl and Miss Fame home since they had easily the most boring lip sync this season, if not ever. They were tasked with performing Demi's hit, "Really Don't Care" -- which is exactly how I felt about it.
Where was this enthusiasm during your performance, Pearl?
Coasting on your knees.
Les Fabian Brathwaite -- because clearly the struggle is real.
