Welcome to the theater

at the Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles,

where we're preparing for next week's grand finale.

First, I want to applaud our crew

and medical professionals

that make it possible for our little show

to continue to shine and inspire

during a very challenging year.

Keeping with our motto of safety first,

we're celebrating each of the eliminated queens

from their home towns,

and we'll be premiering music videos

they've each created exclusively for this reunion.

Now, we may not be back to normal,

but we are definitely back to sickening.

#DragRace.

Speaking of sickening,

bring back my girls.

[cheering]

Wow, look how gorgeous you are.

From Chicago, she's a living Mackie doll,

Kahmora Hall.

From the House of Hall.

-Hey, sisters. -Hey.

Hi-ee.

From Phoenix, the trade of the season,

it's Joey Jay.

Hi, cutie pie. Here we are.

[laughs]

She's Atlanta royalty, Tamisha Iman.

Hello, Ru. How's everybody doing?

[all laugh]

Also from Atlanta, do-re-mi, it's LaLa Ri.

Hey, Mother Ru, girl.

Hey, girl.

From the Las Vegas Strip, it's Elliott With 2 Ts.

Hey, y'all. What's going on?

[all laugh]

From Chicago, good golly, Miss Denali.

-Hi, Ru. Aah! -Hi-ee.

One of New York City's finest, Miss Tina Burner.

What's up, bitches?

Ma'am, mama.

From Minneapolis, it's Utica.

Hello, hi. Oh, it's so good to see you.

Hey, girl.

Whoever said New Yorkers aren't polite

never met Olivia Lux.

Hey, girls.

[all laugh]

My queens, thank you for joining us.

Now, you all made drag herstory

in the most lip synciest season ever.

Let's take a look.

[music plays]

Tonight we're doing things just a little differently.

[squeals]

Girl, what?

♪ Con-drag-ulations ♪

♪ You're number one ♪

♪ Drag is all over the world ♪

♪ It's a phenomenon ♪

And...action.

I own 51% of the flag fac-try.

[all laugh]

They let her churn butter all day.

Hold me in your arms until all the pain goes away,

but also, power drills are on aisle seven, henny.

Yes!

Y'all, RuPaul is so old,

Jurassic Park brought back memories.

[all laugh]

She auditioned for the school play

and got the part of the stage.

[all laugh]

This is as hard to swallow

as Loni Love's comedy career.

-Oh. -[laughs]

You're the one bombing.

[all laugh]

Hey, girls. How's it going? It's Scarlett.

[cheering]

Hi, queens. [cheering]

What attracts you to the drag art form?

I gag to the fashion.

Like, can we just?

Category is fashion.

Michelle: This has never been done on the runway.

You look rich. I would rob you.

Michelle: Kumbaya.

Oh, my Gottmik.

She is the wind beneath her own damn wings.

This was like my wet dream.

It's fashion, but it's edgy and you.

RuPaul: That is one of the greatest outfits

we've had on this stage.

Now, that's a statement piece.

We need to continue to say their names.

♪ Don't say what I can post, you know I'm stunning ♪

♪ So just cancel your plans ♪

♪ To troll on my crusade ♪

♪ Gucci, Pucci ♪

♪ Susan Lucci ♪

Kandy. Kandy, wait.

I'm not ready for you to go.

You really have no idea

what people have gone through

and when you learn about it,

it really shows why they are that person that they are.

RuPaul: No matter what happens here or online,

don't let anyone make you feel like a loser.

You are a star,

and I'm proud of each and every one of you.

Our queen cam is standing by

to capture our top four finalists

as soon as they arrive.

But first, let's check in

with a queen who likes to take her own sweet time.

The Mackie Doll is finally out of her box.

Kahmora Hall is always living that rich white woman fantasy.

You can smell the privilege off of her.

Who's ready for a bite of this?

Oh, sorry, Ru.

I was just finishing up my makeup.

Y'all eliminated me way too early,

but like I said, I promised y'all,

the Mackie Doll is not going back in her box.

From the first episode where I walked out

in my original Mackie dress,

and Carson Kressley's jaw dropped.

It's an original Bob Mackie.

What?

It's my Phenomenon performance

in my inspired Mackie dance costume.

to the sheer runway

inspired by Cher's Met Gala dress.

If I had to describe my Drag Race story in one word,

it would have to be...

Anxiety. Aah!

Aah! I'm without a fucking--

Y'all saw how much

it was a struggle bus for me to get ready.

I'm about to do something I've never done before.

Paint a face in one hour.

I have done faster.

I don't take four hours anymore.

I take three, okay?

Baby steps. I'm 25% faster now.

Some of my most memorable moments of the season

were when Nicole Byer said that I looked like

I was lost in a grocery store without a grocery list.

Looking around kind of lost. [all laugh]

Do I get the bread?

Do I get the oranges and whatnot?

Spaghettios? I would never.

I was totally unaware

of how I looked when I performed,

so watching it on TV, I totally agree with her.

But you know what?

I'm working on it, Nicole.

Why did you leaf me all these years ago?

My fully padded green suit moment,

I thought I was gonna be, like, the sexy

palm tree, willow tree or something.

Instead I was just, like, this thick trunk

with just my face,

so I looked crazy.

I was rooting for us.

I was rooting for us.

I was rooting for us.

My team was shady as heck.

They all told me I was doing great.

Then they all talked behind my back in confessionals.

I'm watching a train wreck happen

right in front of me.

But I can do it now.

[clears throat] I was rooting for--

Wait. No. [laughs]

I was rooting for us. I was rooting for us.

But fan reaction has been great.

I got a message from someone

saying, you know, thank you for representing

the Asian queer community on RuPaul's Drag Race.

You know, representation really does matter,

and the fact that I was able to walk down that runway

in a very Asian dragon-inspired dress

shows that I am proud of my culture

and where I come from.

And seeing those messages

from, you know, the Asian-American community,

means a lot to me.

I hope y'all are ready for this next performance.

It's sexy, sultry.

It's a tribute to my drag mother.

I'm about to give you everything you ought to feel.

I love it.

Now in a music video she produced all by herself,

here's Kahmora Hall.

[music plays]

♪ Shoo-doo-doo- doo-doo, yeah ♪

♪ Shoo ♪

♪ Many say that I'm too young ♪

♪ To let you know just where I'm coming from ♪

♪ Well, I'm living in the world of ghetto life ♪

♪ Everyone is so uptight ♪

♪ Yeah ♪

♪ Nothing's wrong, it's all right with my man ♪

♪ I like the way we carry on ♪

♪ His loving will send me on and on ♪

[applause]

Gorgeous.

Oh, our first top four finalist is arriving.

Let's go to our queen cam.

High fashion label.

-Hey, Gottmik. -Hi.

You're kind of a big deal.

Congrats on making it to the top four.

Thank you.

Got time for 69 questions?

I mean, I guess.

[laughs]

Describe your Drag Race experience in three words.

I'd have to say gorg, gorg, and gorg.

What was the greatest advice you got on the show?

Probably when RuPaul said, "You already got the job.

You just have to show up."

What advice do you have for queens starting out?

Ooh. I would definitely say find what makes you you

and start your name with the letter Z

so you always go last.

Name one thing you could never live without.

Obviously my top four sisters.

I'm just kidding. It's my fucking phone.

Give me your best Michelle Visage impression.

It's...a piece of fabric.

Name a superpower you wish you had.

I've always wanted to be able to teleport

because I am the most impatient person

in the entire world.

L.A. traffic does not help.

If you could beat anyone's mug, whose would it be?

Raven, if you ever have a sick day,

tell RuPaul to call me.

Where do you see yourself in five years?

Definitely looking back

at how I won Drag Race five years ago.

And finally, what's your favorite thing

about being a drag queen?

Definitely the fact that I get to crash the system with my art.

Oh, and rhinestones.

If you're #TeamGottmik,

let your voice be heard.

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

In one week, on this very stage,

we'll crown America's next drag superstar.

But tonight we're getting down

with all the sisters of Season 13,

and this next queen left her fans thirsty for more.

Just ask Kandy Muse. Take a look.

Ooh!

Filler queen.

I'm a gay-ass bitch. I'm Joey Jay.

She's wacky, she's crazy, but I'm gay as fuck.

I'm gonna shit rainbows and glitter,

and it's gonna be everything.

Hi, cuties! The gay agenda is here.

Dance megamix the house down, boots back, bareback.

[laughs]

Coming in, I wasn't a very well-known queen,

and I'm like, I'm gonna make fun of myself

before anybody else can.

Filler queen.

Bitch, maybe I am.

If I go home, I wasn't lying,

and if I whupped everyone's ass,

y'all just got beat by a filler queen.

Gotcha. So it's kind of like a win-win.

This season was like Drag Race boot camp.

We walked in and there were twists right out the gate.

-Welcome, ladies. -Kandy looks at me,

and she's like, bitch, are we about to lip sync?

And I'm like, fuck.

There's so much anticipation, and then bam, you're going home.

Sashay away.

Bok, bok, bok, bok, bok!

Come on, chicken feathers!

I was surprised.

I didn't think a chicken feather was going to, like,

make or break someone's entire career. Denali.

I'm just not a fan of chicken feathers.

-Tch. Sorry, girl. -Baby, if my outfit was $200,

then, like, you're probably still paying yours off, so...

Cluck, cluck. I'm feeling great.

The first time I saw you without a wig,

I thought, oh, I love that.

I knew being a no-wig queen

was gonna be, like, controversial,

and I was ready for the wrath of Michelle Visage.

But the fan base absolutely love it.

It's so validating to hear from so many people,

like, I'm so happy you stuck to your brand.

And I'm getting so many pictures

of people embracing the no-wig thing.

I absolutely love it.

My runway journey is a little bit different.

I don't think the judges quite understood my drag.

I just thought that was the poison IV.

I was going for IV bag.

He's like, well, why isn't it poison IV bag?

But I'm, like, we have to do, like, a type of bag.

And I'm like, well, poison IV bag isn't a bag.

An IV bag is a bag, but like a poison IV bag isn't one.

It was IV bag, but I had poison ivy on the costume.

Does that make sense?

How about we just, like, move forward

and just, like, don't look back at it?

We've definitely got the trade of the season.

I wasn't going in to find a relationship,

and then next thing you know, Kandy is chasing me.

You're single? [all laugh]

You've seen Godzilla, right? It's like that.

But, like, watching that episode with Kandy...

Oh, my God, Joey Jay's so feminine,

and I love feminine boys.

It made me, like, get, like, butterflies.

Like, I got a little verklempt.

So I was, like, oh, my God,

like, I'm being embraced for, like, just being who I am.

We don't needed this mask for mask bullshit anymore.

The fans are asking

if anything is happening between me and Kandy.

Maybe it already has, baby.

I don't know.

Don't worry about it.

Baby, I might have been eliminated second,

but you haven't even seen anything yet.

This video is going to be so cute throwback nostalgia,

and I'm not gonna be the only gay-ass bitch in it.

Wait, Joey Jay is gay?

I've gotta let that sink in for a minute.

Okay, up next, here she is

in her own gay-ass music video. Hit it.

♪ You're all I ever wanted ♪

♪ You're all I ever needed, yeah ♪

♪ So tell me what to do now ♪

♪ 'Cause I--I--I--I--I ♪

♪ I want you back ♪

♪ It's hard to say I'm sorry ♪

♪ It's hard to make the things I did undone ♪

♪ A lesson I've learned too well for sure ♪

♪ So don't hang up the phone now ♪

♪ I'm trying to figure out just what to do ♪

♪ I'm going crazy without you ♪

Joey? Joey, wake up!

The customer needs a drink.

Get to work, filler queen.

[laughing]

Please, remember to tip your bartender.

Our next top four showgirl is arriving.

Let's go to our queen cam.

Hey, Rosé, I'd recognize you anywhere.

Can I ask you 69 questions?

[laughs]

If Season 13 were a Broadway musical,

what would it be called?

The Never Ending Story.

Who would be the villain?

"Who would be the villain?"

Who would be the love interest?

Den-not see you there. Uh, come in.

Who would be your understudy?

Jennifer Aniston.

Name a historical era you'd like to live in?

-The eighties. -Why?

So I could hang out with Tina Burner.

Make a face you'd like to become a Rosé meme.

What's a vice you wanna give up?

Ordering take-out.

What's a vice you never wanna give up?

Kamala Harris.

What's a phrase drag queens use way too much?

"I did not come here to make friends."

Now say that again with a Scottish brogue.

I didnae come here fer mates.

What's the best advice you got on the show?

When you got it, you got it.

And lastly, what's your favorite thing about being a drag queen?

Changing people's minds.

Thanks, Rosé. Break a leg.

If you're #TeamRosé, let your voice be heard.

♪ Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

In one week, we're crowning a winner, baby.

But tonight, it's all about the sisterhood.

Up next, you can call her mother

or you can call her a grown-ass woman,

but I call her Tamisha Iman.

Take a look.

Tamisha is here.

I am Tamisha Iman, one of the baddest

in the art form of female impersonation.

[imitating Cher] Whoa!

She's one old classy, sassy lady.

But at the same time, I can be that B-I-T-C-H if need be.

Category...

-Oh! -Whoa!

Hi, guys. Watching myself on the show

was like an out-of-body experience.

I'm recently getting over cancer.

Initially, I was cast on Season 12.

But one year later I fought back,

and I knew if I didn't strike now,

I was never gonna get back there.

So I needed a comeback

that I didn't even think I had in me.

I am a designer,

so to be on the main stage runway

was totally a dream come true.

Oh, the legends ball.

The sheer runway look is always gonna be

one of my favorites, so when Ru said...

It is one of the most beautiful dresses

that has ever graced this stage.

It blew my mind.

[imitates Cher] Whoa!

It's one thing to mark RuPaul doing Cher in your home,

and be like, whoa.

But who would have ever thought in a million years

I would actually get that part of what Ru is known for doing?

Only thing I didn't say was, "Snap out of it!"

[laughs] It was so fun,

I enjoyed that the most.

Bring it to the runway.

Seeing LaLa on the show was amazing,

because I felt so proud

that I had just a slight hand to play

in that start of this great entertainer

the world gets to see.

Miss Tamisha.

She put me in drag many, many years ago, honey.

I think the way the show started

with the Porkchop group,

LaLa built a lot of bonds

with the people that were in her winning circle.

It's no shade or anything like that.

I am just a real type of person.

It's a couple of girls in here I don't care for.

-You talking about me? -You one.

When Kandy and I got into it in Untucked,

it was true emotions coming out.

I said what I said.

Get the fuck outta here.

I came to the show

to gain the sisterhood I never had in my community,

but you're not gonna mesh with everybody.

So Kandy and I will never be friends,

but I don't wish her any ill will.

I don't wish her any negative hate or anything like that.

I wouldn't have changed anything.

Girl, I suggest you keep your fucking mouth shut.

Shut the fuck up, you stupid-ass bitch.

But if the cameras was not there, I would have hit her.

You're a fighter, a survivor, and a star.

When I was eliminated, it was two different emotions.

This is not right, and, whew, it's finally over.

No, tea, no tea, no tears, no tears, no tears, no tears.

I learned regardless of what the cards were dealt to me,

I've always played my hand,

and I still have a wild card to play.

The song that I will be performing

has sass, has attitude.

It is definitely a Tamisha Iman original.

This is my last time to show the world

my charisma, my uniqueness, my nerve, and my talent.

Judges, I got talent. [laughs]

Now in a music video to her original track Arrogant,

here comes Tamisha Iman.

RuPaul's Drag Race fans have questions,

and the answer is

36-24-36.

And, "Yes, they're real."

But to answer your other questions,

bring back Kahmora Hall, Joey Jay, and Tamisha Iman.

Hi, Mother Tamisha. Hi, Joey.

Hi, cuties.

Tamisha, you look stunning in purple.

Kahmora, I love your bellybutton.

[all laugh]

All right, Tamisha,

I've got some fan questions for you.

So Jada from Reno wants to know have your kids seen the show,

and what are their thoughts about it?

We still at this very moment

haven't had a conversation about it.

So my kids are grown.

They're actually older than you, Kahmora.

So when they're ready, they know where I'm at.

[all laugh]

You know what? The true trade of the season is Tamisha,

because she actually got biological kids.

Kahmora, I think you can sit down and shut the hell up.

-Joey is a bully. -What?

Joey's a bully, a shady, shady bully.

Say it again.

You shady lady!

All right, Kahmora, the Miss Mackie Doll.

Valerie from Syracuse writes,

"If you were a tree,

what kind of tree would you be?"

Triggered.

But if I were a tree,

I would say I'd probably be a coconut tree,

because we've both got big nuts.

I think you're really trying to branch out with that,

but we're rooting for you.

[all laugh]

So, Joey, we have a question

from Michelle from South Plainfield.

She writes, "Big hair. Are we ever gonna see it?"

Ooh!

Well, this is awkward.

Joey, that is your Anita Baker cut.

That is not big hair. [laughs]

You know what? Mind your business, Tamisha.

Okay, I'm sorry. I'm just gonna stay in my lane.

[all laugh]

Thank you, ladies.

Well, nobody wants the crown more

than the queen from the Brazonx, Kandy Muse.

Let's go to the queen cam.

Hey, you're Kandy Muse.

What is the tea, honey bee?

So nice to see you. Mind if I ask you 69 questions?

You're naughty, but 69 is my favorite number.

Describe yourself in a hashtag.

#StarQuality, baby.

If you were actual candy, what would you be?

I think it'd be sour candy,

because you either like me or you don't.

What's a moment from this season you wish you could do over?

Pockets. Delete the entire episode.

Name one thing you'd like to mop from RuPaul's closet.

Mm, RuPaul's wigs.

What's one thing you actually mopped

from your Season 13 sisters?

Gottmik's wigs.

If one of your Season 13 sisters said she wanted to punch you,

how would you respond?

That's not top four behavior, baby.

What's one thing people don't know about you yet?

Hmm. If I told you, then you'd know.

Who do you look up to the most?

Myself, because I'm an icon.

[laughs]

Repeat after me. Sally sells seashells by the seashore.

Go fuck yourself.

Any plans to do stand-up comedy?

Yeah, actually, I wanna go on tour with Utica and Symone.

[laughs]

And finally, what's the best thing about being a drag queen?

Mm, the attention, darling.

Also, being left alone when I wanna be left alone,

as in right now. Bye! [laughs]

Thanks, Kandy. Break a lash.

Can Miss Boogie-Down take the crown?

Sound off with #TeamKandy and let us know.

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

Now, we're just one week away

from crowning America's next drag superstar,

but tonight we're celebrating all the sisters of Season 13.

Drag Race is a life-changing experience,

especially if it's the LaLa Ri Experience.

Take a look.

Oh, what you say, what you say?

LaLa Ri is here to slay.

LaLa Ri is like a Olive Garden pasta

with, like, Popeye's chicken tenders on the top

for the razzle-dazzle.

So I would still describe myself as the Olive Garden pasta salad

with those chicken tenders put on top.

But we might add, like, a little balsamic vinaigrette.

That's the bougie tea.

Balsamic vinaigrette, girl.

At least that's what I think.

Did I say that right? Is it balsamic vinaigrette?

I mean, I act the fool all the time.

If I could describe my Drag Race journey in one word,

it would be "short."

Ah, girl, I'm not serious, girl, I'm not serious.

No, in all seriousness, it was amazing.

Baby, I had a lot of ups, and I had way more downs.

[sewing machine stops]

Baby, I knew the fans were gonna come at me

about that bag look at the ball, child.

It's a new meme every day trying to haunt me, girl.

My most favorite meme out of all of them

is the one with just a lonely bag on the street,

and it says, "LaLa Ri was here."

Girl, y'all is wrong for that,

but I love that meme, girl.

I love it.

So my most proudest thing was actually my fashion, child.

Because, you know, pre- Drag Race,

I was a leotard girl, child.

But I didn't want Michelle to read me,

so I tried to step outside my comfort zone.

I am proud of myself for the lamé look,

the gold situation,

which I thought that was not lame, it was lamé.

But you know, I had actually lived for that little moment.

I hear she's in the new Bond film Goldsphincter.

My personal favorite of my looks was my snake look, honey,

when I was slithering down the world.

I'm so proud of that look.

We have to use our voices and do the right thing.

The hardest thing for me to watch from the show

was definitely the Black Lives Matter conversation,

talking about Rayshard Brooks and George Floyd.

It's still hard for me to watch to this day.

You know, I still kind of get choked up.

But definitely having a conversation like that

definitely brought me and my sisters closer,

because we all realized

that sometimes we actually go through the same exact thing.

Use that platform wisely.

-And get in some good trouble! -Come on!

Tamisha Iman was, like, the first person to put me in drag,

so that's, like, a full-circle moment.

I expected me and Tamisha to get closer on the show.

So she's your drag mama.

Yeah, you could say that.

So, but child, I think we both was there to get that $100.000.

And it's no hard feelings between us.

I still love her down.

I still have a relationship,

and, baby, if I see her at the local Kroger, girl,

I'll buy her a loaf of bread, girl,

or some milk, girl, that's all I can afford right now

because I didn't get that $100.000, child.

Lord, bitch--not bitch.

You know you're not a bitch, Lord.

The fans think I am a deacon out here, child.

They think I am Pastor Ri, child, when they're praying.

Turn your TV on and for 5.99, get a miracle

from LaLa Ri and a prayer.

That might be another source of income for me, child.

The video you're about to see

is actually a LaLa Ri original, honey.

ATL, represent.

Now, I'm getting word that our next top four diva has landed.

It's time to say hey to Symone-Symone-yay.

Whew.

Symone, fancy meeting you here.

Oh, it's fancy, huh?

Got time for 69 questions?

I always got time for 69.

If your Drag Race journey were a song, what would it be?

Oh, The Climb by Miley Cyrus.

Fitting, no?

What's your favorite runway look that you wore this season?

My favorite runway look. I mean, have you seen them?

All of them. Every last one of them.

Ross or Carson?

I pick Michelle.

What's your guilty pleasure?

Oh, God, there's no guilt with me.

Pleasure's pleasure.

What's your sign?

I am a Capricorn sun

with a Gemini moon and a Scorpio rising.

What does that say about you?

That I'm hard on the outside but I'm soft on the inside.

What's your secret talent?

Oh, I don't have no secrets, honey.

It was all on the TV. Y'all saw her.

Name a designer you wanna work with someday.

Oh, God, there's so many,

but, you know, Rihanna comes to mind.

Call me, girl.

What's your favorite swear word?

Fuck you, you fucking fuck.

Name one thing on your bucket list.

Oh, God, I would love to see the world.

All of it, everything.

What's one thing every aspiring queen should know?

That it is not as easy as it looks.

If you weren't doing drag, what would you be doing?

Eww. Nothing.

And lastly, what's your favorite thing about being a drag queen?

That I get to express myself.

Mm-hmm. Yeah, mm.

Congrats on an amazing season. Break a lash, Symone.

Oh, thank y'all. I'll see y'all out there.

If you got a Sweet Toof, sound off with #TeamSymone.

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

One week from tonight

we will crown America's next drag superstar,

but first, who wants to buy a vowel?

It's Elliott With 2 Ts.

♪ I'm the queen you want to see ♪

♪ Elliott With 2 Ts, okay? ♪

I know where my strengths are.

Dancing, acting, singing.

And, girl, I'm so ready.

[laughs and snorts]

My journey on Season 13 was bumpy.

[alarm]

RuPaul: Ooh, girl.

I have been the only queen in Drag Race history

to have been eliminated three times in a single season.

I'm sorry, my dear, you're getting the Porkchop.

I don't like pork chops.

It was kind of difficult to watch back,

because you almost wanna feel sorry for that person,

but then you're like, oh, it's me.

[laughs]

But now I'm not afraid of anything.

As Britney Spears would say,

I'm stronger than yesterday, and she is.

Hello!

One of the most positive things

that came out of being on Drag Race

was allowing the world

to be able to see my passion for performing and dance.

♪ When it comes to fish, I'm the biggest catch ♪

That is my art, that is my life, that is my soul.

And so the reactions that I've gotten

from people watching me perform and dance

have been just magical.

One of the most shocking moments for me

that I had no idea about

was Kahmora finding my voice to be annoying.

Aah!

There's just something really annoying about Elliott's voice.

Rude. [laughs]

You messy, girl.

She's my sister, I love her, but she's messy.

[laughs]

I think a really impactful moment for me on the show

was being able to talk about my struggles with depression.

I think it's something

that a lot of people really don't fully understand.

It literally is something that I have no control over.

Yeah.

The few times that I've interacted with people,

where they told me that they have depression as well

and they struggle with it,

but hearing my story and seeing me on TV

really helped lift them,

and moments like that,

it makes all the struggle and all the difficulty worth it,

and that's all I could ever ask for.

The song I'm gonna be performing

is kind of like a love letter

to my dancers and my choreographer Jacquin.

It's a message that you can come from nothing,

and if you work really hard and you don't give up ever,

you can literally do whatever you want.

Rawr. So thank you, Drag Race,

for letting me show the world that.

Now in a music video she produced herself,

prance, Miss Elliott. Prance, I said!

♪ Taking me higher than I've ever been before ♪

♪ I'm holding it back ♪

♪ Just want to shout out give me more ♪

♪ You're just a hideaway, you're just a feeling ♪

♪ You let my heart escape beyond the meaning ♪

♪ Not even I can find a way to stop the storm ♪

♪ Oh, baby, it's out of my control, what's going on? ♪

♪ But you're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming ♪

♪ You're just another day that keeps me breathing ♪

♪ Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure ♪

♪ Baby, don't stop me, hide away with me some more ♪

♪ Ooh, ooh ♪

♪ Aah, aah ♪

♪ Aah, aah ♪

♪ Ooh, ooh ♪

♪ You send the shiver up my spine, might overflow ♪

♪ You're bringing me closer to the edge of letting go ♪

♪ Oh, oh, you're just a hideaway ♪

♪ You're just a feeling ♪

♪ You let my heart escape beyond the meaning ♪

♪ Putting my head into the clouds, I'm floating home ♪

♪ When you get me going, I can't find a way to stop ♪

♪ Oh, oh, you're just a chance I take to keep on dreaming ♪

♪ You're just another day that keeps me breathing ♪

♪ Baby, I love the way that there's nothing sure ♪

♪ Baby, don't stop me, hide away with me some more ♪

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.

Put your children in dance class.

Now it's time to spill several teas

with Elliott and LaLa Ri.

Elliott With 2 Ts, hey, sister girl!

Hey, Miss LaLa. How are you, girl?

Oh, my God, you look so gorgeous!

Oh, thank you, girl. This old thing?

I pulled it out of the back of my closet, sister.

[both laugh]

So, listen, girl, I have some fan questions for you, okay?

Girl, bring it to me, girl.

Matisse from Baton Rouge,

who says, "You are cute and funny as hell, girl.

"So what do you find more attractive in a man?

Do you find good looks or a good sense of humor?"

Talk about it.

Ooh, girl, y'all getting personal, huh, child?

So since I have such a huge personality,

a good sense of humor goes a very long way with me, child.

So you have to have a really nice sense of humor.

But, baby, ain't nothing wrong

with a little good look here, too.

[tongue pop] And a good bank account.

[laughs]

So Miss Elliott With 2 Ts, girl, Miss Sheila from D.C.

wants to know who was the Season 13 dancing queen?

[laughs]

I mean, I already know the answer,

but, girl, you can go ahead and give it to me anyway.

I love you, LaLa, girl, but I'm out here to twirl, okay?

I am the dancing queen of this season,

with a side of LaLa.

I'll take that answer, sister, because you did send me home.

[laughs]

I love you, LaLa! I love you so much.

I can't wait to see you in Atlanta, girl.

We're gonna have fun.

Listen, girl, when you come down to Atlanta,

child, I'm gonna bring you to all the good spots.

We're gonna get up in all the best ways, girl.

And baby, when I come to Vegas, take me on the ho's row.

No! [laughs]

♪ Hey, kitty girl ♪

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

This next queen skated through the competition,

and our runway still has the scars to prove it.

The undeniable Denali.

Let me break the ice.

I am Denali, and I am icy, spicy, and a little bit dicey.

I am competitive.

When I start to get mad at myself

is when I push myself even harder.

I'm gonna show what I am capable of.

Hey! Oh, my God.

If I could sum up my journey in one word,

it would be ♪ rollercoaster ♪

[alarm]

Spins, plot twists, turns, and dips and dives,

like, everything and all in between.

What the fuck is up on here?

I'm really proud of that lip sync.

Yes, my little boy nips came out,

but I still thought I worked it out,

even with cement blocks on my feet.

[laughs]

My favorite moment of the season was Phenomenon.

Being able to put out a great performance...

♪ Icy, spicy, for you I'm too pricey ♪

Be in the top with Rosé,

and to be able to lip sync for that win,

that was such a moment, too, where we both were, like, bam!

Oh, we love a double boom. [laughs]

Obviously I got close

to my sister from another mister, Rosé.

-Thank you, Ru. -Thank you, Ru.

It's that very epic Rosenali moment in Untucked

when she holds my hands and sends me out to war

right before 100% Pure Love.

-You know what to do. -I know.

And then as we continued on in the competition,

a lot of my successes happened to be alongside Rosé.

A lot of the heartache and the pain

happened to be alongside Rosé.

So you never know.

A few shots of some Scottish whisky,

anything can happen.

-Oh! -So lovely.

The biggest surprise to me was how well people connected

to the 100% Pure Love lip sync.

I was like, that was a bad day, you were in the bottom,

you had to send your friend home.

And then I got home and I got to see that lip sync,

and I was like, oh.

Seeing me go ♪ da, da-da-da, da, da, da, da ♪

♪ Da, da, da ♪

I was, like, what are you doing, girl?

Stop! She's already dead!

-Hey, squirrel friends! -Hi!

One moment that the audience didn't get to see

was after 100% Pure Love,

the next day, RuPaul not only complimented my lip sync...

Bitch, you can motherfucking dance.

But also complimented my ass.

-And you have a phat ass. -[laughs]

And truly, to get a compliment from your absolute idol

on how thiccums you are means the world.

Skating is very into the knees and push.

The makeover challenge was extremely difficult.

I was a little frustrated that I was in the bottom,

but being back home and seeing my own makeover,

girl, I know that it wasn't that great.

Where was the blending?

So for the fans that came for Olivia,

saying that she should have gone home,

at the end of the day, we were the weakest team.

Who should go home tonight?

My only regret is not saying Tina Burner's name.

-[laughs] -Ooh.

Girl, we all saw it.

We all saw it. [laughs]

Whoo!

My inspiration for this video

comes from being a little icy and a little spicy.

I'm a huge K-Pop fan.

I lived in Korea for a year and a half.

Reporting all the way from the kiss and cry,

it is time for me to lip skate

for my life.

And now, serving a RuPauliday on Ice,

it's Denali.

Now that's what I call a blades of gloryhole-llelujah.

The time has come to toot or boot.

If you like a look, toot it.

If you don't, boot it.

Here we go.

First up, Utica's bag ball eleganza.

Is this even a question right now?

I'm tooting right now it's so good.

But what I'm trying to wonder

is how we had the same hours and the same time

to make the same thing,

and she came out with a masterpiece?

Girl, we was on two different spectrums of the globe.

But that's a toot, sis, that's a toot.

Can I give her a shoot? [laughs]

I really love that look.

Next up, Kahmora's train look.

Stunning. Of course it's a toot, honey.

Kahmora's whole wardrobe is a toot plus a toot.

Honestly, also a shoot.

Oh, it's just incredible. I love her.

Y'all were lucky they sent me home first.

Next up, Elliott With 2 Ts' fascinator look.

Um, can we go to the next one?

It was...interesting.

I'm gonna have to give it a boot.

I'm giving you fashion, I'm giving you different makeup,

I'm giving you versatility.

I love it. I give it a shoot.

[laughs]

I got pigeon, that's what I got.

I love you, Elliott, girl, but that was not it, sister.

That's a boot. Outta here!

Boot it out!

She gonna get me for that.

Up next, Kandy's beast look.

Look over there!

Next, it's Symone's train look.

Symone is just so Black,

and that train look was super Black.

I'm gonna give that a shoot.

Shoot that to the moon, honey.

it is beautiful, it is stunning,

it is everything that we wanted,

it's everything that we needed.

If we didn't know that we needed it,

we know that we need it now,

and we need it all day, every day.

Symone, toot the house down. No boot.

Trend alert. Tina Burner in red, orange, and yellow.

Let's say it all together.

Boot.

You will know, and someday your children's children will know

that Tina liked red, yellow, and orange.

It's not a flattering color palette unless done very well.

Oh, dear. All of the things I'm saying sound terrible.

I feel like I'm back in the roast.

I'm sorry!

Listen, you hated it or you loved it,

so it is the only lerk.

Red, orange, and yellow.

Trend alert. Who wore it best?

We all brought the same drag.

[laughs]

I will give that it was a pandemic going on

while we was getting ready,

so we probably all used the same designer. Who knows?

It's tough when there are two looks

and they're the same concept,

because there's always gonna be someone

that, like, outdoes the other.

Honestly, I wanna see a good old drag queen boxing match.

How about that? Can we set that up?

Going down.

You know what? I just think great minds think alike.

[Michelle laughs]

And last and least, LaLa Ri's bag ball.

I'm gonna have to give this look a boot

and possibly a trash can.

I have to give this a toot.

It may be the worst look you have ever seen,

but it will be with you for a lifetime.

Imma toot that, and you know why?

Because it was iconic.

She made that outfit a winning lip sync outfit.

Let that sink in.

Boot.

[tongue pop] What possessed me to make that bag look?

What was I going through?

Now, Miss LaLa Ri,

in recognition of the worst look of the season,

it is my honor to present to you

the first annual Golden Boot.

Aah! [laughs]

Yes, ma'am, honey,

I finally won something on this show, child!

LaLa, what do you have to say?

Baby, ever since I was a little, bitty girl

I wanted to win this award,

even though it never existed before tonight.

But, listen, I finally won it, girl!

You better manifest!

[laughs]

Ooh, look at it, girl. It's so cute, girl.

I'm gonna put it right in my bedroom, child,

next to the dildo.

Ain't that cute? Mwah!

[laughs]

I can cry right now, but I got on my good dress.

The opinions expressed here

in no way reflect those of RuPaul's Drag Race,

VH1, or myself.

Because child, don't even get me started.

Thank you.

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

In one week, our top four will battle for the crown.

But first, a queen who put the sizzle in Season 13.

Let's turn it and burn it, bitches!

I'm Tina Burner,

and I'm New York's premier costume comedy queen.

I have been a staple in the drag community

for 10 years because I'm old.

Nobody puts Burner in the corner.

Hey, guys, it's me, Tina Burner.

I have auditioned for RuPaul's Drag Race 963 times.

525.600 minutes.

So to actually walk through the door, it was very surreal.

You didn't show it,

but I actually walked through the door, I hit my head.

It was very embarrassing. I should know better.

I'm a tall, luxurious woman.

[laughs]

My favorite moment of the whole season

was dressed as the Tin Man, coming down the runway,

and RuPaul just going, "Tina, bring me the axe!"

I've always wanted to play Mommie Dearest.

I had the most fun in the disco challenge.

That music kicked in,

and I was strutting down the runway.

And landing in the top, it was like, amazing.

You were a disco queen to me tonight.

I think my lowest point in the competition

was being in the bottom for the Rusical.

I just got canceled.

Because coming from New York City

and coming from theater,

it was really important for me to do New York City proud.

I stand by my choice to stop lip syncing

those two seconds in the Rusical,

because it was a comedy choice, and I'm a comedy queen, henny.

I have seen more memes about me than I can count.

From Ronald McDonald to a sexy hot dog.

Baby, mission accomplished.

I didn't know Tina Burner owned flames

and the color orange, red, and yellow.

I own flames, and Tina Burner is this sexy.

Turn it and burn it.

[all laugh]

Rosé and I were paired together in the makeover,

and I hate-crime Rosé's face.

Oh, my God!

One of my favorite memes,

somebody put, "When you leave the house

and you realize that you left the stove on."

One, two, three.

-Mean Girls. -Mean Girls.

During the competition,

I got really close with my Mean Girls trio.

Kandy and Mik and I became really, really tight,

and fans were not that receptive.

Here's the thing, y'all.

Mean Girls, one of the campiest funny movies

I've ever seen, is about having fun,

being stupid, and making fun of yourself.

That's what Mean Girls is.

You're not being confident, you're being arrogant.

Girl, get the fuck outta here with that bullshit.

I said what I said.

Tamisha and Kandy, "arrogant," and it got wild.

Take me out right now!

I was just a little taken off guard,

because we had just come from a previous challenge

in the same group, sitting there, getting along,

hanging out, going over lines.

And to this day, still don't understand, but one day.

It was gonna have to be one of us.

So why didn't you jump up?

[laughs] Oh!

You gotta know that baby likes to fight.

In the words of her drag daughter LaLa,

she said, "She likes to fight."

So if you ask anybody on the circuit,

they say she got a loud mouth and she's ready to go.

Tamisha, gimme a call, girl. Let's hang out.

I'm gonna do an original song

with a lot of my local queens from New York City.

It's time to celebrate what I do.

You think you loved my lovely lady lumps?

Well, no, I lost that lip sync, so get ready.

This is gonna be much better.

And now for something completely different,

Tina Burner in her original composition,

Turn It & Burn It.

Sss!

And now, the fire and ice of Season 13,

Tina Burner and Denali.

Denali, my beautiful angel, you look gorgeous.

How are you doing?

Thank you, Dad.

I'm doing good. How are you?

I miss the hell outta you.

I believe you're serving me some Alaska night sky.

Aurora borealis, you know?

-[laughs] -All right, Miss Tina Burner,

now, I have fan mail questions for you.

Bruce from Billings wants to know

you and Rosé were really funny in the doppelganger challenge.

What was that like,

and are y'all close or are y'all frenemies?

[sighs] I'm gonna give you the real tea.

-I still hate her! -Oh.

No, I'm just kidding.

Just--we're closer than we were before.

I'll tell you that much.

And there was none before, so guess what?

We're an inch closer.

So y'all got an inch closer, and we got eight inches closer.

No, I'm just kidding.

Aah! Werk!

Denali, we have a question coming in cold, I'll say,

because it is from Elsa from Saskatoon.

Are you gonna be planning any ice-theme drag shows,

like Twinks on Rinks or Trade on Blades?

Oh, that's funny.

The second the world opens up,

you better believe I'm gonna have my own ice show

starring me.

So, yeah.

I'm thinking maybe we should collaborate,

a little Heat Miser/Snow Miser?

Yes, we could do the number from Blades of Glory,

where they're fire and ice.

I mean, considering my skating ability--

You'd be the stem, I'd be the flower.

Yeah, that kind of works for me.

All right, Dad, another fan mail question for you.

Trina from Tallahassee asks, What's the weirdest thing

we didn't see you do in the werkroom?

Win a challenge.

I love you so much, Denali, and I miss you every day.

-Bye-ee! -Bye, baby.

Thank you, ladies.

We are one week away

from our lip sync smackdown for the crown,

presented by Bubly Bounce.

Now let's go to our queen cam

to capture the reunion of our top four queens.

Oh, snap, what's going on up in here?

What's going on up in here?

Oh, my God, I'm so excited!

Hi, diva.

Symone, what up?

The color palette. We match, baby.

-We match, honey. -Let me do a handstand.

You trying that. Let me get over here.

-Okay. We begin. -[laughs]

Talking about looking different since filming.

Wait, where can I sit? Where can I go?

Symone got hit with some orange hair.

I did. I said, let me go do something

a little different for the finale, honey.

Full of pizzazz, all righty.

Baby, we almost thought you got eliminated.

We was over here, Symone.

Oh, you thought--over you?

[all laugh]

I mean, diva, we were sitting here. Where you been?

Baby, I've been getting ready for the finale.

-Are y'all ready? -Isn't it wild?

It's insane.

Bitch, this is gonna be such an iconic finale.

The looks! The looks!

The looks.

My looks are actually game over.

Like, I am ready to come out and fucking kill it.

Baby, it's time to restart the engine.

Good thing Bubly Bounce got that kick of caffeine

to get us through.

All right.

Baby, that looks delicious.

It's good. We gonna need it.

Oh, I missed y'all so much.

I missed y'all, too.

Okay, but promise me this.

Split the money four ways.

-No. -Absolutely not.

-If I win, I won't split. -You wouldn't do that.

But if y'all win, split the money.

[all laugh]

Bitch, we're here.

-Oh, my gosh. -Ahh!

-Whoa. -Look at all of this!

We're here!

-Yeah! -Oh, my God.

RuPaul's Drag Race, honey.

♪ This is the beginning of the rest of your life ♪

Welcome, ladies.

[screams and laughter]

-Hi, Ru. -Surprised to see me?

Now, this is where all the magic happens.

-I see. -Y'all nervous?

-A little. -Yeah, a little bit.

Maybe a little bit.

Look at my children have all grown up.

Definitely had to up my Botox levels for sure.

[all laugh]

-Full of filler at this point. -Yes, of course.

We're all full of hate now.

-Well, there's that, too. -I, like, missed you.

[all laugh]

Well, are y'all ready?

-Absolutely. -Let's go, baby.

Let's get it poppin'.

-Get it poppin'? -Mm-hmm.

[all laugh]

I'm so excited. This is gonna be insane.

Yeah. Now, have you all remained friends?

-Oh, yes. -Very close.

I feel like we're the closest, like--

Too close. [all laugh]

Oh, baby, ooh.

Making me nervous.

So who's gonna win next week?

-Me. -Definitely me.

[all laugh]

-Like, no question. -I love it.

Well, I'll tell you, I'll be the judge of that.

-Yes, you will. -Oh, well.

Your name is on the marquee.

But seriously, I just wanna tell you all,

just savor the moment, because you'll look back on this

and you'll think it all went by so fast.

So just savor it.

Swish it around in your mouth a little bit.

You know how to swish, don't you?

Oh, absolutely.

I know how to do more than swish, baby.

[all laugh]

Now, will you do me the honor of introducing our next guest?

Ooh, absolutely.

Syracuse!

Schenectady!

All: Utica!

Ah-choo!

She's sickening.

I am Utica Queen,

and I am the wacky, inflatable waving arms tube queen.

I'm all about the goof, the woof, and the aloof.

This bitch is crazy.

Ooh!

Hi there. Hi, it's me, Utica Queen.

Summing up Drag Race in one word has been kooky.

-Aah! -[laughs]

The one moment that I wish we could have included in the show

was when I first entered the main stage and I talked to Ru,

I talked about the experience, how I was struck by lightning.

Shocking, I know.

You've been struck by lightning?

Yeah, I flew off the ground,

I think it was, like, 10 feet up in the air.

And I think that explains why I'm so full of energy.

Aha!

It was a testament

to how I could just, like, keep on going.

Yeah. It's electric.

I really loved all the things that I wore.

My beast look, oh, I loved that one.

The earrings with the little earrings.

I love my earrings! My curtains look.

I'm gonna have to say

my favorite challenge is the design challenge.

I feel like I was definitely in my element

walking down that runway.

I felt as powerful as I could ever imagine.

Welcome to the joy of Snatch Game.

Snatch Game. Watching that back was definitely a time.

Even if I know that I'm not gonna be good at something,

I at least go for it.

I think the praying squirrels on my head

would have been proud.

Maybe, like, a soft applause.

[groaning and moaning]

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you could speak whale.

The hardest part of the season for me

was definitely the roast.

Boo!

At the time

I did not understand the difference

between humor and insult.

You wanna try not to be mean, but cut and funny.

I've grown and seen the way that jokes can be told,

and how they can definitely come from a place of love.

I definitely wanna strive for that,

instead of just, like, relying on this just bad sense of humor.

10. Oh.

For the makeover challenge,

I definitely feel embodying Symone changed me as an artist.

I feel more confident in my work,

and just feeling so beautiful and so sexy and powerful,

and thank you, Symone,

for teaching me how to capture that energy in myself.

You're the winners of this week's challenge.

[cheering]

I find so much joy in lip syncing.

I feel like it's one of my favorite things

about being a drag human.

I definitely feel like I put my stamp on that stage

and had a great, great time with this season.

Leaving, it was sad, but it was--

I think the whole thing was worth it.

Minus the roast. Bye-bye. [laughs]

In this lip sync, it's my last chance

to share a little bit of my country home town twist,

and so I hope that y'all enjoy and have a great time with me.

And when you think you can't, Utican.

-Okay, Kandy, your turn. -Ooh.

And now, in the music video the bitch produced herself,

Utica!

Welcome back.

Next week, we are crowning America's next drag superstar.

But first, the queen with the million dollar smile.

Lux be a lady tonight.

I am Olivia Lux,

and I like to light up a room

whenever I walk into a space.

I think I've coined the phrase "polite diva"

because I'm still polite.

I could still be a diva, though. [laughs]

I'm so happy to be here!

Watching myself back on Drag Race was mind-blowing.

How long have you been doing drag?

Like a year and a half.

When you're underestimated,

you have to kind of have more confidence in yourself.

So I feel like every asset of me as a drag queen was tested.

Did I say that out loud?

My favorite was the disco.

I was transported in time, and I was there.

The disco was when I found that diva in Olivia

that I was kind of looking for.

You have what they call "it factor."

I mean, it's just you are radiant.

May I ask?

May I ask a question? Question.

I just remember everyone making fun of me when I needed help,

because I would be like, hi, is there anyone

that's able to help me with my nails?

And everyone's like, "Olivia is such a diva."

I think a lot of divas,

backstage is usually where it's like, mm, girl.

So I really tried to make sure that I'm, like, polite.

May I ask--

I am reclaiming the word "diva"

and using it for good.

Con-drag-ulations. You're the winner of this week's challenge.

I think the girls started to look around.

You know, one win, okay.

But the second win right after the first win,

they were kind of like, okay, wait.

Time out, this girl--

we need to kinda look out for her.

And that felt good.

Maybe I'll go to France and be a mime.

Walking down the runway this season,

I felt so fierce, I felt so fun.

A lot of my looks were nods to nostalgia

'cause it makes me just think about the simpler times.

It was so much fun creating these looks.

Jamal Sims: She's your dream girl.

When Mama Ru asked the dreaded question...

Who should go home tonight?

...I was the majority vote.

-Olivia. -Twice.

-Olivia. -Olivia.

But for me, there were no hard feelings,

only because I know that everyone's answer

kind of has nothing to do with me.

We're all on our own different journeys.

There's no real way to compare.

I just don't take things personally.

Kandy saying no one can be that nice is really funny,

because I know Kandy real well.

If we all said her name on that runway,

I know she would have some choice words for all of us.

Just my opinion.

-Shut up! -Aah!

The divalicious diva.

The biggest thing I learned on RuPaul's Drag Race

is that opportunity is not a lengthy visitor,

so go out and get it and chase your dreams.

I'm living!

I also learned how to lay down baby hair from Symone.

That is actually probably the biggest thing I learned.

I can't believe she won with that hairline.

[all laugh]

The song I'm gonna be performing is an oldie but a goodie.

I love this diva,

so it was so much fun embodying her for this lip sync.

Maestro, queue it up!

Now it's about to go down with Olivia Lux.

Ooh, Mary.

Now, let's get up close and personal

with Utica and Olivia.

Oh, my God, is that the Olivia Lux?

-Hi, Utica! -Hi there.

Utica, I have some fan questions for you.

Absolutely. What do you got?

Okay, so Markie from Detroit asks,

"Utica, early on you cracked Ru up

when she asked you about weed."

Have you ever smoked weed before?

[laughs]

"What were you thinking about in that moment?"

Well, I wanted to be honest,

but then I had the thought, oh, my God, I'm on national TV.

[both laugh]

So then I was like, answer, but don't answer,

but then answer again, but then don't.

And then she just started laughing at me,

and then I was like, oh, my gosh,

I just gotta keep up the pattern and see what happens.

[laughs]

So do you smoke weed?

[laughs] I've been out with you.

All right, Olivia, I have some fan questions for you.

For me?

It's Sam from Boise.

"Olivia, there are rumors

"that you and Utica have been on a date.

"Is that true?

If not, are there plans for one?"

[laughs]

Oh, I don't know.

Well, I have seen you after the show.

The food was delicious.

The food was really delicious.

It was really good.

-I love you, baby. -I love you, too.

Welcome back, queens.

Now, in a season full of lip syncs,

two of you showed us you've got the sass and the ass.

Now for the first time ever,

I'm choosing two lip sync assassins of the season.

-LaLa Ri. -Aah!

Yes, sis!

And Denali. [cheering]

Oh, my God!

Yes, bitch.

Oh, sister, you remember that Porkchop group?

[all laugh]

Sorry. [laughs]

Tonight, you'll go head-to-head and toe-to-toe

in a herstory-making lip sync smackdown for charity.

The winner will earn $10.000 for the charity of her choice.

-Yes, honey! -Werk!

Welcome back to RuPaul's Drag Race Reunited.

They battled in the premiere,

and now it's time for the rematch.

For our charity lip sync smackdown,

we've partnered with our friends at Barefoot Wine,

a proud ally celebrating the bold and the beautiful

for more than 30 years.

Up first, coming to us from Roscoe's in Chicago,

it's Denali.

Hi, Ru.

Denali, tell us who you're lip syncing for.

The charity I'll be lip syncing for

is the National Center for Transgender Equality.

LaLa, girl, I love you, but this is my redemption.

Fantastic.

And coming to us from My Sister's Room in Atlanta,

it's LaLa Ri.

LaLa, who are you lip syncing for?

Hey, Ru, I am lip syncing

for the National Black Justice Coalition,

dedicated to the empowerment of the Black LGBTQ+ community.

Denali, sister, I love you,

but, baby, you better watch out, girl.

Both great charities.

Now, two lip sync assassins stand before me.

Prior to tonight,

you were asked to prepare a lip sync performance

of Be My Lover by La Bouche.

Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me

and earn $10.000 for the cause of your choice.

The time has come... [thunder]

for you to lip sync...

[echoing] for your charity!

Good luck, and don't fuck it up.

Ladies, I've made my decision.

Denali, you're a winner, baby.

Con-drag-ulations.

Your charity will receive a $10.000 donation.

Do you have anything you'd like to say?

Ru, thank you so much for this opportunity.

Huge shout-out to Roscoe's for letting me twirl here,

and I'm so glad that my splits and flips

are going to benefit my trans brothers and sisters.

LaLa Ri, in the spirit of giving,

your charity will receive a donation of $5.000.

Do you have anything you'd like to say?

Thank you so, so, so, so, so much for that.

I had so much fun performing with you, Miss Denali girl.

You are sickening, sister. Con-drag-ulations, girl.

Thanks, ladies. All charity, no shade.

-Thank you. -Thank you, Mother.

Now, never-before-seen footage

snatched from last week's main stage.

Take a look.

Now my final question.

Tell us, why should you be America's next drag superstar?

Gottmik.

I basically grew up with the show now,

and every person that was crowned always opened my mind.

The world is not black or white,

it is this craziest fucking gray area,

and that's what my drag is.

And I've grown so much here,

I'm so ready to be crowned,

and be the representation that I wish I had growing up.

And that's why I'm America's next drag superstar.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

All right, Kandy Muse.

There is no rulebook that says

that America's next drag superstar has to be perfect.

I have fallen 100 times and gotten up 101 times

because I have the fire in my fucking belly.

There is an entire community of Afro-Latinos,

brown, loud little gay boys back in the 'hood

that are looking up to this big bitch

right here on this main stage like, damn.

And that's what I wanna show the world--

that it's okay to be big. it is okay to be loud.

I feel like a fucking queen already.

Crown it.

[all laugh]

-Thank you. -Rosé.

I should be crowned America's next drag superstar

because as I've demonstrated,

there is just about nothin' I can't do.

There is a drag queen who I admire and look up to.

She's a great hostess, she has a TV show, she sings.

Her name is Lady Bunny.

[all laugh]

Her name is RuPaul.

When I think of myself in the future,

I hope and see something like you.

And as I've shown you all here every single week,

I can do all of it really well.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Symone.

Growing up in Arkansas--

Conway, Arkansas--

I believed all those negative things

that people said about me.

But I kept going forward, and I said something--

There's something there out there in this world

that I'm good at, and I found drag.

Throughout these weeks, I've fought and I've shown myself

and I took down the walls

that I built up to protect myself.

And I feel like my drag is really inspirational.

There are a million and one Reggies out there

who need somebody like me.

I'm a beautiful person,

and I'm willing to fight for what is mine.

And, um, that's why I'm America's next drag superstar.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Well, there you have it.

Four powerhouse queens ready to pull out all the stops

for next week's lip sync smackdown for the crown.

Who are you rooting for?

Are you Team Gottmik,

Team Kandy,

Team Rosé,

or Team Symone?

Sound off and let us know.

And remember, if you can't love yourself,

how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?

Can I get an "amen" up in here?

-Amen! -Amen!
