Original subtitles

- Previously on "All Stars"...

- I was thinking about it.

You should cut the people who have

the same amount of badges as you.

- Girl, you just don't want to get cut off this week.

- Absolutely I am a target now.

- For this week's Maxi Challenge,

you get to unleash your inner bitch

in the original short film, "Meeting in the Ladies' Room."

- Nina West!

- I was riveted.

It was just enough over the top.

- Your physical comedy was on a whole other level.

- The top two All Stars of the week are...

Nina West...

- Thank you.

And Angeria...

- Paris VanMicheals.

You've each earned

a Beautiful Benefactressism Badge.

This is your chance to win $10,000 for your charity

and earn the power to cut off one

of your fellow queens from receiving

a Beautiful Benefactress Badge next week.

Angeria, condragulations.

- You're a winner, baby. - Twice!

Work, sister.

- With great power comes great responsibility.

- See, I really don't have to think about this one too much.

No, I'm just playing. - [laughs] I was like, girl!

Snip-snip, bitch.

- No! - Come on, bitch.

- Come on, bitch.

I am over the moon.

I just won my third challenge.

I just won my third lip sync, honey.

- I'm going over here.

- What? You never sit over there.

- I know, right? I always come in last

'cause I always get snipped.

- I have won a total of $30,000

for the National Black Justice Coalition.

My God. Like... [screams]

- I'm really excited to have a second badge.

I'm really excited that they took that immunity

and they gave me $2,500 to Trevor Project.

- Yeah.

- I think that was my big win of the night...

was just getting some money

in the till for Trevor.

- But I got to know what went into your decision,

'cause you faked me

the fuck out. - I did.

- I thought she was gonna get you for a moment, yes.

- Bitch, me and Jorgeous were

clutching on to each other for dear life.

- I know. - We were just like, fuck.

I feel like I just escaped a car crash.

My math worked!

Hey.

- This is my second time being cut off.

I hate it.

- And they go with your outfit.

- [scoffs] Convenient!

- As long as you know, it's nothing personal.

- Well, why did you cut me then?

I don't have the most badges.

I haven't been killing it the past few weeks.

- No shade, I did kinda feel like

what Plastique said made sense,

which is, you cut off the person, like,

that has the same number of badges as you.

And I'm like, well, bitch, out of the people

that have the same number of badges and me,

you're the person that I see as, like, my competition.

- Angeria, you fool.

Fell for it, girl!

Plastique, all your mathin' might have helped.

- It worked. - What are you talking about?

- Angie just said it did speak to her,

and it moved her like a scripture.

- Can I just say, the math doesn't add up, though.

- It does not. - Ooh.

- Like, no tea. - Yeah.

- But you have three badges right now,

and she only has two, so that's not an equitable statement,

I don't think, to say that she has

the same number of badges as you, 'cause she doesn't.

- In the moment, like, before the third badge, she did.

And you know what? And I ain't even ashamed to say

that it might be just a little hint of revenge in there.

Ooh!

- And I ain't even ashamed to say it.

But just a little.

- I forgot that I cut you. - Yep.

- I think that I was playing,

like, a game of what's fair and what makes sense.

And I think you're playing chess.

You think that because you, Roxxxy, and Plastique have

three badges, you were like,

OK, Gottmik is an easy one to shut down and just, like,

make sure isn't in the final with me

so I can keep going with these bitches.

And if you wanna play that, I can too.

It's not personal. It's drag, honey.

- Gottmik looked like she is ready for war, bitch.

But guess what. I'm done worrying about what

the other girls think about how I'm playing this game.

I don't care, 'cause I'm so proud of myself.

You could be hot, upset, mad, all that.

Argue with your mammy, not me.

There's only three spots in the finale,

so I will do whatever, and I mean whatever it takes

for me and the National Black Justice Coalition, OK?

- The competition's really starting to heat up.

- And we going all the way to the top.

- The competition's really starting to heat up now.

- Get out, girl. [both laugh]

The winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars"

receives a one-year supply

of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics,

a coveted spot in the "Drag Race" Hall of Fame,

and a $200,000 donation to the charity of their choice,

courtesy of the Palette Fund.

With extra special guest judge Jeremy Scott.

You done busted a light.

- It's a new day in the Werk Room.

I'm cut off, and I broke a light bulb,

Shannel's juggling, and there's glass on the floor.

So starting out the day with the chaos,

and I love that.

Very me.

- So now you have three. [bell dings]

You have three. - Work.

- There's three in the three club, right?

- At least we're all near... like,

everyone's still, like, near.

- Not everybody.

I mean, still.

- You got three apples.

- And that's all that matters.

- There we go.

- Hello, hello, hello.

That is cute!

- You look good. - Work.

- Good morning, All Stars.

[together] Good morning, Ru.

You know, one of the advantages

of being an international drag superstar

is that you get to travel the world.

The bad news is that you can't get away with a damn thing.

- OK. - Tell me about it.

- So for today's Mini Challenge,

you'll photobomb some

of the most interesting vacation destinations

in the world.

Sponsored by Away. - Ooh.

- Now, the All Star with the most unforgettable

photobomb wins.

Now, you've got 20 minutes to get into quick drag.

- Dear God. - We love quick drag.

Yeah.

[together] We do.

- Ready, set.

Let's go.

- Bitch. - Bitch!

- OK.

- I'm just gonna utilize my natural beauty today.

Good luck, girl.

- Wow, wow, wow, wow.

- Girl, I'm losin' my own brow.

- I'm just throwing this makeup on, Mama.

- All right, ladykins.

Time is up.

First stop, Miss Vanjie photobombing the Swiss Alps.

What's the most exotic place you've traveled to?

- Probably Burbank.

OK, all right.

Yes! - Lil' Kim.

- Hey, what up? - Hello?

Hey.

- Next stop, Shannel photobombing Argentina.

- We gon' get on the ground with this one, honey.

- Do not cry for her, Argentina.

OK, nice.

Parting somethin' there.

Gorgeous.

Well, I guess it takes three to tango.

Roxxxy Andrews for the Congo.

Ooh!

It's a rumble in the jungle.

- "Gorillas in the Mist," sis.

Up next, Plastique en route to Paris.

If you stay bready, you ain't got to get bready.

Bon appé-titty.

Nina West goes east

to Japan to visit a sumo wrestler.

Ooh, I think someone's gonna get pinned.

Wow.

- Eat it, eat it, eat it.

Is he gonna straddle you?

Girl, I can see your Tokyo Drift.

Jorgeous is photobombing the Arctic Circle.

- Yes.

- I wanna wrap my arm around the polar bear.

- OK.

Ooh, girl, it's Bear Week in the Arctic Circle.

Up next, Gottmik traveling to Hawaii.

- When I think of Hawaii, that's the outfit I think of.

Hey, girl, let's have a Wai-kiki.

Somebody got lei'd.

Angeria photobombing in London.

- I'm trying to get the guard to let me into the palace,

so I gotta do a little something.

- Well, it is customary to kneel before the queen.

- Yeah.

- Look, it's Prince Harry.

No, that's Princess Harry.

- They ain't lettin' me in the palace.

- [gasps] [laughter]

- Does anyone have eyes on Baga Chipz?

- Thank you. Tell the queen to call me.

- She dead, you know?

Ladykins. - Yes.

- You've been around the world, and I still can't find my baby.

Come on, Lisa Stansfield.

- The winner of today's Mini Challenge is...

Nina West.

What?

- Work!

I'm as surprised as you all.

- Condragulations.

You've won $2,500 for your charity,

the Trevor Project.

- Thank you so much. Thank you.

- Courtesy of Away.

- I am so excited to win another Mini Challenge

and more money for my charity.

What's next? Bring it on, Mama.

- My All Stars, research has shown

that listening to music can reduce anxiety,

blood pressure, and pain.

But can it help you design a couture gown?

For this week's Maxi Challenge, you need to create,

from scratch, runway eleganza

that takes inspiration from one of my songs.

Ooh!

- [laughs] - You choose the song.

We provide the materials.

And then you make your own kind of Rusic.

The song choices are "Star Baby,"

"Lady Cowboy,"

"Hey Sis, It's Christmas,"

"Kitty Girl,"

"New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold,"

"Cake & Candy,"

"Cha Cha Bitch,"

and, finally, "I Bring the Beat."

- My eye immediately goes

to "New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold."

The materials is to die for.

- Shannel, as the first queen

to walk her bare ass into the Werk Room,

I'm gonna let you pick first.

- As the queen of Christmas,

it's gonna be "Hey, Sis, it's Christmas."

Which queen would you like to choose next?

Wow.

- You know, I loved her ashy knees

in our little Mini Challenge over there.

Angeria, what you want?

Nina, sorry.

I chose Angeria because she sews,

and this is a sewing challenge.

So inevitably I'm probably gonna need some help.

Everybody's gonna be asking Roxxxy and maybe not Angeria,

so come on, sister, help me out.

- I want "Cake & Candy."

All right, so, Angeria, which queen goes next?

- OK.

I love you, and I'm sorry for snippin' you, Gottmik.

- Loves you. It's OK, now.

I'm just kidding. [laughter]

I am going to choose

"New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold."

- Damn.

- Which queen do you choose to go next?

- I will let Vanjie choose.

- I love all of the songs, honestly.

- You're very kind... - First, I wanna go ahead and

let you know that. - You're very kind.

- And it's very hard to pick a song.

But I'ma do "Kitty Girl."

I picked "Kitty Girl" 'cause...

Some things you don't even have to say.

Keepin' with the whole ASPCA.

Meow, meow, meow. - OK.

So you get to choose who goes next.

- I'll choose...

Roxxxy, go ahead.

- I'm gonna pick "Lady Cowboy."

- I love the Old West. I love leather.

And I like a challenge.

- Who goes next?

Plastique.

- I'm gonna choose "Star Baby."

Plastique, which queen do you choose to go next?

- Jorgeous.

- Um, you know what?

- I feel like I could do something, like, space-agey.

Very, like, you know, futuristic.

- All right.

Now, Nina, that means you get "Cha Cha Bitch."

- Who would have thought?

- Yes.

What the hell's happening?

It feels like the people who have better design skills

were given the opportunity to pick first,

which doesn't make a lot of sense.

Confused, I am very. [chuckles]

- All Stars, start your engines,

and may the best drag queen win.

- Yes, Mama.

Run.

- Let's go. - Come on. Get on.

- Taking this. - Are you taking the table?

- Me and Mik have all our stuff here.

- Yeah! - We just roll it over.

Come on!

This week's Maxi Challenge is inspired...

or wait, is it inspired?

This week's Maxi Challenge is inspired

by creating a look by for thy...

This week's Maxi Challenge is creating a look

inspired by one of RuPaul's iconic tracks.

I can't believe I did it.

[laughs] Whoo.

I got rhinestone material.

This is pretty.

- Come on. Look how we big we made our station.

I got the song "Kitty Girl."

I'm here for the kitties.

I'm here for ASPCA. I'm a kitty girl.

Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.

- So stupid.

- You know, I only have two badges,

so I have to come up with a game plan

to get to the top two this week.

I wanna be the big cat, not the puss wuss.

Thanks for picking me right after

'cause I was like, ooh, I don't wanna be last.

- I know. I was like,

well, obviously live, love...

live, laugh, love you, but... [laughs]

I just know you're not the best sewer of life.

- Y'all know sewing's not my "foyer,"

but that's not gonna stop me.

I'm gonna try to be ambitious and do, like, a...

the trench coat with the lining that goes with the dress.

- Really? - Yeah.

I have a clear vision, I love my fabric,

and now I just need to cut it like Edward Scissorhands.

To cut or to not to cut.

To cut.

Lord.

Let me make sure. I'm scared.

Yeah.

I'ma just do it like this.

Wait, I don't know if I should do it like that.

But I'm a Libra; it's hard for me to make a decision.

- Sister. - Yes?

- Are you happy this week that you're not cut off?

- Bitch.

Bitch.

- Hell the fuck yes.

- You're good at these, bitch.

- Angeria, do you think you made the right choice

on who you cut?

- Yes, I do.

At least it's one of the "designers" here.

Like, you know,

Mik won the last design challenge,

which was the ball.

- That's right. - So...

- Yeah. - Yeah.

You know, I have now snipped

two design powerhouse drag queens,

and I just won the last two challenges in a row.

So I am going into this expecting

if I'm not in the top that the girls are gonna cut me.

- Crush it, girl.

- That's the plan!

God damn it.

- This is what I'm looking at,

which is fucking heavy.

Yes. Go with the doo-doo brown collection.

- It's gon' be doo-doo brown with a badge.

- Doo-doo brown!

- I just really want a badge

for a sewing challenge.

It doesn't feel great

that I didn't win the first design challenge.

My Vietnam doll and my rocker doll... killed that.

They won fair and square.

But, you know, this is what I do best,

and I cannot leave here without getting a design challenge win.

Mikky.

- Brown leather something,

and then incorporate this bandanna?

- Yeah.

- I'm trying to incorporate something with it

that's not hokeypokey.

- Right. [laughs]

- I picked "Lady Cowboy."

I love the fabrics. I love the challenge.

But making a cowboy look can get extremely tacky.

- What about stretch denim?

And the cow print.

- And I don't want it to be hokeypokey, OK?

I got rhinestone trim.

I want it to be fashion meets country.

She might have to go somewhere.

Don't get tacky now, Roxxxy.

- So how's everything coming along so far?

- Good. - Yeah?

- Yeah. - How do you feel?

I mean, do you feel any sort of way about getting last?

No. No.

- You're good?

- Girl, it's totally OK.

I get "Cha Cha Bitch."

Again, I didn't pick my song.

The song chose me.

I wanna do something a little bit more chic

and not campy, 'cause I always do campy.

But everything is sheer.

You know, like, going sheer is not necessarily the route

I wanna go because of my body shape.

I am someone who's learning how to be comfortable

in their own skin every day.

So, like, all this transparent fabric is very scary.

But also, I need to push myself.

I'm gonna make it work. You know, like, I'm here...

I'm here to... I'm here to rise to the challenge.

So I'm thinking about loving my body,

its shapes, its curves,

and how do I accentuate these rolls, honey?

Show off these... these titties.

Bitch, she gon' cha cha into this...

she gon' cha cha into this challenge, honey.

[laughs] There you go.

- Angie, can I ask your assistance real quick?

- Yes.

- I am a very crafty queen,

but I have not been on a sewing machine in 15 years.

So thank God for Angeria.

She's my Santa's helper today.

When I cut this then, it becomes the full...

- It becomes the front and the back.

- Front and a back.

- And then you literally just sew, sew.

Turn it inside out,

and you got a dress. - Right.

There's only a few weeks to catch up,

and I need a badge.

I need to win money

for the Anxiety and Depression Association of America.

Thank you for helpin' me.

- I appreciate it. - No problem, sister.

- Ooh, my God.

You got thebox.

You have so much to work with.

- I know. Damn.

- So gorgeous.

- I like all of them. This one is so me, though.

Because I love design challenges,

it's actually probably the worst time

in life to get cut off.

But I'm obsessed with my materials,

and I need to win more than ever

so I can block one of those three-badge bitches

from getting four.

I am in defense mode now.

I was thinking about maybe braiding

some kind of, like, slit dress,

and it was, like, wrapping up me.

- Yeah.

- So, girl, I have my game face on.

It looks like this.

Yeah. That's it.

I feel couture already.

- Mik got a fierce-ass box,

and I know she's gonna turn it out no matter what.

Aside from my queen, Roxxxy Andrews,

Gottmik is my biggest competition this week,

for sure.

The fabric is just amazing already.

- I gotta watch out for this bitch

because I'm the only one with three badges

that has not been cut off.

So if I'm not in the top,

I for sure am gonna be snipped.

The bitch is fierce,

but I'm gonna win this challenge

and make her eat it.

The brow.

Sorry.

My Botox wore off.

- Ooh, you look like a fabulous burrito.

- Hey, ladykins.

[together] Hey!

- Aw, the sweet sounds of queens sewing.

It's music to my ears.

- Mine too.

It's just Roxxxy.

- All right, Jorgeous.

- Coming!

Hey. - Hi.

Now, something changed in you for the roast.

Something really clicked.

My God. Not gonna lie, Ru,

I feel really good now because I'm able

to step into these challenges headfirst,

like, ready to tackle them.

And I feel like I've been doing such a good job.

- You should feel proud of yourself.

But it's been a few weeks since you've won a challenge.

How are you gonna make it three badges?

My God. Well, I gotta turn this look out for you.

- So you got "I Bring the Beat."

- What does that mean to you? - My God.

Well, I remember hearing it on season five,

watching Roxxxy...

- Coming out with a slingshot.

I'm like, my God, that's the kind of drag I want to do.

And you know what?

I'ma try to pay "ho-mage" to it.

- Did you say "ho-mage"?

- Ho-mage, Mama. [laughter]

This week is gonna be stiff competition,

but I won my sewing challenge my season,

so I definitely feel like I could win again.

- All right, I can't wait to see

this little slingshot you're working on.

Yes. It's gonna be cutesy.

- [laughs] - I can't wait to show you.

- She said "ho-mage."

- That's too funny.

- You got "New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold."

- I decided that I'm going to braid the whole dress.

Very beau monde-looking, and then quilt it all together.

- Ooh.

- Yeah. - That's a tall order.

- I know. The gay audacity.

I've never done that in my life.

But here I am braiding.

- Now, a couple of weeks ago during the roast,

it felt like you were feeling some kind of way.

- You had some fun jokes, it just...

you seemed more reserved.

- You were holding back.

- It hurt me to, like, hear you say that,

and I couldn't even speak back,

'cause I was like, I'm gonna cry. And I never cry.

But the second I opened up to everyone, I felt better.

- Here's the thing... this experience with these queens,

they may chop you, they do all this stuff,

but this is your family.

- Yeah, no. 100%.

- And "New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold" speaks

to... the bonds that we have over the course of a long life.

I'm working with friends today I've had since...

[voice breaks] 1985.

My gosh.

- And then new friends.

- Also gold.

- Silver-gold. [laughter]

- Platinum.

- I love you, kiddo.

I mean it. - Thank you so much.

- So you're doing a western-wear-chap storyline

with this ultra suede?

- Yes. - I love a fringe moment.

- I love a fringe. - I love everything

to do with fringe moments.

Why did you choose "Lady Cowboy"?

- Old Roxxxy would choose the most beautiful fabric,

but the hardest one for me would be cowboy.

And I'm here

to think outside the box.

I'm here for my crown.

I wanna raise as much money as I can

and show you that I'm still that bitch.

You certainly are.

Now, tell us about your charity and what they do.

- The Miracle of Love, which is in Orlando.

And under the umbrella of the Miracle of Love

are these girls called the Divas in Dialogue.

The Divas in Dialogue is the reason why

I chose the Miracle of Love.

It's a program that is specifically designed

for trans people.

They help get gender markers changed,

and you can go there to get medication,

to just get knowledge,

and, you know, be with people who are your family

if you don't have a family to get help.

They have movie nights.

They go bowling,

which helps people go out in public

and feel comfortable as their authentic selves.

That's what I'm here for, and I'm very thankful

that we still can raise money.

- Can't wait. I always love what you design.

You are so talented. - Thank you so much.

- All right. Well, thank you, Roxxxy.

- Love you, Mama. - Love you, darling.

So you got "Cha Cha Bitch."

- It selected me. - [laughs] It selected you.

- So it's gonna be a little sexy, I think.

And a little bit more fun.

And just a different energy for me,

which I'm really trying to channel.

- I love it.

Now, you have a street named after you in Ohio.

What is it called? - It's called Nina West Way.

- Nina West Way. - Yeah.

- I love that. How did that come about?

- I'm not sure. I think a lot of people

maybe came together and signed a petition,

and, you know, made that happen for me.

And so the city of Columbus honored me

with naming a street after me right by my home bar.

- Nina West Way is such a tribute to the fact

that you have been so giving in your career

and in your life.

- It's humbling, right?

Since the very beginning of my career,

I was raised to give back.

My drag mother, Virginia, taught me

that drag queens have a job,

which is protecting, defending,

and entertaining a community, specifically queer people.

So it would mean the world to me to win a badge this week

and get one step closer to the $200,000

for the Trevor Project.

- So Shannel gets Christmas. - Yes.

That was a surprise to, no one.

- No one. [laughs]

- Do you know what you're gonna do?

Did you have too many choices?

I had to kind of edit things, because it's so easy

with Christmas to throw everything

on the Christmas tree and go, it's amazing.

- Which I would normally do.

- We spoke on the runway last week

about your brain's way of trying to sabotage you.

- I was on this show so many years ago.

Maybe I just can't keep up with everybody.

- We all have this voice,

but we don't let it drive the car.

What are your thoughts now?

- When I thought about everything,

just in my solace in my own head,

I realized that, like... I'm, um...

I guess I always felt like I let you down

because I made the decision to leave.

- Shannel, who should be eliminated tonight?

- I nominate myself.

And for 15 years, I have...

I think I've just felt like a failure because of that.

I never wanted you to think of me that way,

because I wanna make you proud.

I mean, I do.

- Listen, I already am proud of you, Shannel.

What you've done in your career is phenomenal.

You are world renowned.

You're already a winner.

So as Mama Ru talking to one of my firstborn,

I'm proud of you already, Shannel.

- That means the world.

- It's the truth.

It's true. - It really means a lot.

- I need you to tell that

to that child who lives inside of you.

He's the one who needs to hear it.

He's the one who needs to hear it the most from you, from you.

You are worthy.

- For the last 15 years,

that's something I internally struggled with

and something that I never thought

that I would actually be able to say to Ru.

It feels pretty damn good to let that go

and move on from it.

Glide out of it. Stride out of it.

- Merry Christmas, children.

- Yes. - Here's your gift.

It's Shannel.

There you go.

- Thank you. Thank you so much.

- So, Angeria, you got the song "Cake & Candy."

- Yes.

- Now, are you gonna use a silhouette

that has worked for you in the past?

- OK. - Do you have a sketch there?

- So that's what I need your help with.

- OK. - 'Cause I am...

at this point, I'm a little indecisive.

- OK, so I see that there's a gown there that has...

- There is a gown. - A crisscross in front...

- Yes. - And has a train in the back.

- Yes, so I was thinking about doing the gown out of this.

- Yeah. - And then taking this fabric

and then, you know, draping... - I love it.

Very Ashford & Simpson. - Yes.

- Well, what was the other choice?

- Maybe, like, doing something else

that I haven't really done,

like a jumpsuit or something like that.

- Gown will work, but in terms of the feeling of the song,

it is kind of a jumpsuit with a big old fat ass.

- Yeah. - In a way. I don't need to...

- Yeah. - I don't wanna influence...

I'm just gonna workshop this with you.

- Yeah, OK. - You have three badges.

If you don't win,

somebody's gonna try to come for you

with them Ruby Snippers.

I feel like

I might as well be wearing a big old sign

right here on my forehead that say, "Snip me! Snip me!"

That's how I feel.

- That's how I feel.

OK, girl.

Gown, jumpsuit, gown, jumpsuit, gown, jumpsuit, gown, jumpsuit?

I don't know.

[growls] Lord have mercy.

Jesus, please take that sewing machine and guide me,

God, to make the right decision, OK?

'Cause, listen, I need to win this one.

Just wanna get it together.

- You should get this and border it.

So give me a scrap of this fabric.

- [laughs] Come on, sheer.

- [laughs] I live.

- You just hold it in place.

Don't pull it yet till I start the stitch.

My God.

- You see what I'm saying? - Bitch!

- It looks so much more finished.

- I need to fully embrace the nudity, I think, of it all.

- Ooh. - That's pretty.

- I cannot believe I made this.

It's giving me confidence

to show off my body in a completely different way.

- That's so adventurous for you.

- But it looks great.

- She did that.

I'm, like, naked.

- It's OK to be a little naked every now and then.

Ain't that right, Jorgeous? - Yeah.

- I'm naked right now.

- Damn it.

- What's the tea, sister?

- This is a train wreck over here.

- What's happenin'?

- I'm about to hand-sew this whole goddamn thing.

- You want me to run it through my machine real quick?

I'm realizing I am helping Shannel out a lot.

I'm, like, kind of checking myself every now and then.

Like, what time it is?

How much time I got?

It's all sewed up and ready for you.

- You're the best. - But I don't mind,

'cause she did choose me first, and this is my homegirl.

We've been getting real close, so I don't mind.

I got you, girl.

As long as I have time

to finish my look.

My God. Plastique.

- [laughs] - You're fucking nuts.

- Isn't she just over here doing art?

- Girl. Jesus.

- This is, like, not big enough.

I want it to be huge.

For the ball, I did something obnoxiously big.

So for "Star Baby," I want to do something

that is even more obnoxiously big.

I wanna make a star-shaped train,

which is very difficult.

Everything has to be symmetrical.

Everything has to have a hem.

Everything has to have a lining.

Everything has to look finished.

And we only have a very small amount of time.

I have to get that fucking badge.

[panting] If it's the last thing I do!

- If you're not in the top,

you think you're getting chopped?

- The writings are on the walls.

A lot of stuff is riding on

this little "Star Baby" garment, OK?

I have to be the winner.

There's no other choice.

- You sewing gloves?

- I don't know. I'm tryin'.

- Well, that wasn't worth it.

Gloves?

Who do I think I am?

Chanel?

Not Shannel the drag queen. Chanel the hou...

never mind. [laughs]

Roxxxy... - Yup.

- If you were to make a glove,

how would you make that glove?

- You'd take your hand,

and you trace it with a Sharpie.

- Like this? - Then you cut that out.

- You know, I could easily throw my hands up and say,

I can't do this, but I'm actually trying

to prove to myself that I can do this.

No.

Shit.

This is week eight.

I only have two badges.

And if I wanna be a serious contender

for this finale, I gotta turn it out on this runway.

- Baby, who wrist is this?

- Mine. - Jorgeous?

- And this is, like, the third one I've tried to do.

- You got man hand, girl. [laughs]

You thought this was your wrist?

- Look at that. It go round it.

She was makin' a glove for "Toddlers & Tiaras."

You're the daddy.

Let's make a realistic glove for Neens.

No. Please work.

Damn it.

I'm trying to make the jumpsuit

that I told Ru that I would make,

and it's just not...

It's just not lookin' good.

I think I'm running into that issue that I have every time.

- What?

- Which is trying to take a risk

and do something different when I could literally

just make things I know I know how to make.

- RuPaul says, like, don't try to reinvent the wheel.

- I know about the wheel.

Start this over and go again.

I gotta go back to the drawing board

because I'm just not likin' what's going on.

- This is givin' librarian.

It's giving very librarian.

- I'm running out of material.

I'm runnin' out of time.

Whoo! Bitch, I'm sweatin'.

I was gonna make, like, this jumpsuit.

But now I'm thinking of instead doing, like...

- A leotard? - A leotard and chaps.

I'm making chaps for the first time.

- Are you serious? - But I was like, I'm country.

I'm... I'm... I'm "Lady Cowboy."

- It worked though.

- I was like, I gotta try something.

- Yeah, yeah. No.

- Come on, chap sister.

- You are going at it.

- Girl. Pfft.

Slowly but surely.

I am making these braids,

and this fabric is only one sided,

so I have to sew the fabric together.

And then you have to flip it inside out.

I hope I have muscles by the end of this.

[laughs] Yeah.

It's a little chaotic at the moment,

but it'll turn out fine.

I promise to myself.

The noise.

You're gonna be hearing that in your sleep.

[vocalizes fabric crunching] - Yeah!

- You'll wake up.

- It's a little cheetah girl.

- It's kitty girl to you.

- Shit a-girl. - Shit a-kitty.

Shit. Meow.

- How long have we been working?

- Forever. [laughs]

- Girl, I've been working on this same glove

for, like, the last hour, so... - At least you have a base.

I have chaps that I've been stoning.

I have nothing for the top.

- How fast you run this through the machine?

I challenge you.

I wanna see how fast you can do it.

- My glue's dryin',

so I can't come over there.

If all you hos beat me again,

I'ma be up there like,

OK, it was cute the first time now.

Mama can help, but Mama is busy right now, OK?

I had a cute idea in the moment

that I thought was to write "Lady Cowboy"

on the back of my chaps.

Nothing like a rhinestoned cowgirl,

so it's probably a thousand stones

that I'm putting on here.

When thinking of things to do, take it easy.

Don't fucking stone shit.

I still need to make the denim leotard

and the jacket with fringe.

- Come on, Dallas cowgirl. - Very.

"Give me a sewing challenge and I'll give you what you like."

But my workload is above and beyond and way too much.

All right, I gotta leave this alone.

I have to move on to something else.

- Yeah!

No!

- Whoo! - Stop!

- Do-do-do. - Whoo!

Whoo, bitch, I'm tired.

- We're back into this Werk Room,

gettin' ready to rock this runway.

Ma'am.

A doozy, honey.

- Well, you seem in a great mood.

- My coffee's startin' to kick.

Baby, I worked into the night,

and I was still doing rhinestones.

But I have a finished product.

And hopefully I walk that perfect line

of hokeypokey and couture.

Fingers crossed, America.

- [whispers] I still got more to do, bitch.

You still have more?

My God.

- I'm going crazy.

Girl, I am finishing my makeup in 30 minutes

so that I can have more time to finish this garment.

- How's your look?

- She came together.

- Do you think you're gonna be in the top this week?

- I do feel like I could.

I think it's well done. It looks good.

It looks cool. I like it. - Yeah.

- If you won, do you know who you would cut off?

- Definitely someone with the most badges, for sure.

- There's options.

- There is options.

- Roxxxita. - Yeah.

- I noticed that you got

that old-school drag mom energy, girl.

You just help everybody in the room and stuff.

Do you have drag kids?

- I do. I have two.

I have a girl and a boy, and I love them to death,

and they make me proud every day.

When I didn't have that motherly figure

and that biological family,

drag family really came into play.

When I became Erica's child,

she was harsh as a drag mother,

but in the best way, in a loving way.

Without the Andrews family and my drag mother,

I don't believe that I'd be as strong a person as I am today.

And that's why I love the Miracle of Love

and the Divas in Dialogue.

Because it's totally like a drag family

for people that don't have one.

Do you have kids, Angeria? - Yeah.

I have 10. [laughs sheepishly]

[together] What?

- I have four sons and six daughters.

- You're like one of the Duggars.

- Literally, when we're on tour,

every city that we went to, she had a daughter

in every city.

- No, but she's not lying, though,

because they really was coming to the tour.

And I felt like I was always coming

in the dressing room like,

Jorgeous, this is my daughter,

or this is my son.

My God.

How did that happen? Like, what...

- She was a ho.

- You don't use protection? - Yeah, I'm a ho.

I ain't know how to get my tubes tied.

Plastique, you had threw that on, bitch.

- You got your makeup on.

- And this is the prettiest I've ever been.

- I love the Anastasia products.

- I think Plastique's is the biggest undertaking,

so I'm excited to see it all shake out.

- I still have so much to do. It is crazy.

I might have been too ambitious.

I'm just over here with stars and fabric and panels and trim,

but no skirt.

And it's literally a race against time.

Are you done with your fit?

Yes.

- Must be nice!

It definitely feels like I have a target on my back.

And I don't want the Ruby Snippers

to touch my delicate body.

I'm just gonna have to, like, glue shit to my body.

- Safety pin... - For sure.

- And then just hope I don't die on the runway.

- Ooh. [light applause]

The hair.

- You look like a gorgeous piñata.

- You're stupid.

Welcome to the main stage of "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars."

She's a female phenomenon.

It's Michelle Visage.

- Well, listen,

I've been called much worse.

- I'll take it.

- Hey, and I'm sorry

for all those things I called you earlier.

- We are all jealous of her boogie.

It's the stunning Ts Madison.

- Ru, I always see you lookin', and I love it.

- Guess who's back in the house.

It's the incredible Jeremy Scott.

- Hello, Ru.

May I call you Mother?

- [laughs] Of course, darling.

Everybody does.

This week we challenged our queens

to create dragtastic fashions inspired by my music.

And tonight, they're ready to bring it to the runway.

All Stars, start your engines,

and may the best drag queen win.

Category is "Make Your Own Kind of Rusic."

Up first...

Plastique Tiara.

- Out of this world.

- The song is named "Star Baby."

so why not make the biggest star-shaped train

to have ever come down this runway?

- That's not just a train.

That's the Starlight Express.

- Honestly, I do not know if I was going

to finish this in time,

but I poured my heart and soul into this piece.

I feel like I just gave birth.

A star is born.

- Look, Mama, she's a star.

Up next, Jorgeous.

She comes from planet ho. [laughter]

- Girl, I look like a sickening

space-age pop superstar performing in concerts

with all these little aliens watching, you know.

And the beat is super funky.

- She brings the beat and the heat.

- I'm showing a little body.

I'm serving a lot of mug right now.

I feel like 10 feet tall walking down this runway.

- You know what they say... less is moregous.

Up next, Gottmik.

Is that a chastity purse?

- This look is

"New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold" down.

It's braids and chains locked up and gorgeous,

which represents how your old friends and new friends

get woven together.

- She made this for her opening night at Fort Knox.

- [laughs] - It's like a whole narrative.

It's an art piece, Mama.

- She's got the competition on lock.

- Yes. Lock her up.

Lock her up!

Up next, Shannel.

- Yes, make the yuletide slay.

- Hello. I'm the queen of Christmas,

and I'm having fun walking down the runway.

- Mrs. Claus better watch out.

There's another woman on the North Pole, honey.

- Kind of like I'm walking into a Christmas party

trying to greet all the guests.

I've probably had a few cocktails,

and I'm being the ho, ho, ho of the party.

- She's such a gift, isn't she?

- She's sitting on a secret Santa.

Up next, Roxxxy Andrews.

Yeehaw.

- Baby, let me tell you, I'm walking this rodeo,

and I am looking fly.

I got my chaps. I got my straw in my mouth.

- Is that what you call a one-trick booty?

- Several tricks.

- You can't tell me I'm not the cowboy doll right now.

- This is definitely not her first rodeo.

Up next, Miss Vanjie.

It's the missing Pussycat Doll.

- Found her.

- Look at me drop it down, pick it back up.

I'm twirling and getting my fantasy

in cheetah print, animal print.

Shout out to ASPCA.

- Ooh, she's giving me cat-scratch fever.

- But after giving very video girl trash, I look good.

And if you don't think so, shove it up your ass.

- Don't you wish your pussy was hot like me?

Up next, Nina West.

La Isla Bonina.

- For this runway, I am serving

straight-up camp with the vamp.

I feel like a little bit of a sex kitten.

Meow.

- I'm dark, mysterious, but also sexy.

I love my polka dot hat that I'm trying to peek out of it.

- Very fascinating. [laughter]

- And I'm so proud of myself 'cause I've got what?

Two gloves!

She's a designer, Mama.

- Spotted in All Stars 9, Nina West.

Up next, Angeria Paris VanMicheals.

All the brothers wanna eat her cake.

And candy.

Look at that!

I have a sickening leotard with attached chaps, honey.

I am serving you all of the body-ody-ody.

You better get into this blonde hair, bitch.

- Just the icing on top.

- Yes, it is. - Pure buttercream.

- You see all of this cake back there, girl.

And it look good, too.

I know you want to eat it.

- If it walk like a duck, quack like a duck, it's a tuck.

- OK. [laughter]

Welcome, Queens.

Tonight I'll name the top two All Stars of the week.

Each will receive a Beautiful Benefactress Badge.

The top two will lip-synch

for their chance to win $10,000 for their charity,

plus the power to cut off

one of their fellow competitors

from receiving a Beautiful Benefactress Badge next week.

Now remember, in our grand finale,

the top three queens

with the most Beautiful Benefactress Badges

will compete for a super donation of $200,000

for their charity.

Now, listen, I know this is going to break your hearts,

but this is the final week

that the Ruby Snippers can be used to snip a bitch.

Now it's time for the judges' critiques.

First up, Plastique.

- Plastique, I love a girl that gives a big reveal.

When it dropped on the floor and you started walking,

I said, ooh, this is a runaway bitch, right here.

- I love the concept of the star train.

It's very original.

All of this work here, perfection.

- It is masterful.

Stars are not easy to cut.

I also want to give you credit for lining the underside of it.

But the lining was coming off a little bit.

- You know, Plastique,

you made a lot of really smart choices here.

The gown is just spectacular.

And the color combination

and the way you've let that long neck do all the talking.

- That is so beautiful.

Up next, Jorgeous!

- I think you really achieved bringing the song alive.

You look fun and exciting,

and I love that you brought this green into here

and didn't keep it all holographic.

- Yes.

- I think that was a really smart move.

- I love how you've opened up these spaces

to elongate yourself.

It really does make it feel like an elevated whore.

Exactly.

- I heard "elevator whore."

- [laughs] - I totally misheard that.

- All right. Up next, Gottmik.

- This is sickening, honey.

- Thanks, gorgeous. - It's everything to me.

- Thank you.

- The bag, honey.

Lock her up.

- I love that you mixed the metals.

I love that you braided it.

It all makes sense.

- I love that not only did you follow

the "New Friends Silver, Old Friends Gold,"

but you created another storyline,

which is the lock and key.

- This is old friends, and it's, like, locked up,

and that bond of friendship.

Yes.

- I was just going to say that.

- All right. Up next, Shannel.

- Ho, ho, ho.

Merry Kitschmas.

- I was like, damn, it's Christmas already?

- Already.

- I ain't buying nobody shit.

I love the way that everything is big.

It's just something about me loving everything big.

- And you made it a short dress to show off

those gorgeous legs, which is always a smart idea.

- You've got, like, centerpieces on your shoulder

and on your hip and in your hair.

I mean, it's simple. It's a dress.

But the accouterments are not simple.

- Well, thank you for making the yuletide gay.

- Thank you.

- Up next, Roxxxy Andrews.

- Hey, mama.

- Well, howdy, lady cowboy.

- Howdy, girl! [laughter]

- I was excited when I saw that you had "Lady Cowboy"

because I thought, what is Roxxxy going to do with that?

And this is just what I'd hoped you'd do with it.

You've got a bolero. Not easy to do.

The bandanna worked into this bodysuit.

Rhinestone-encrusted chaps all the way down the leg.

You did, like, a multi-dimensional story here.

- This is ready for the runway.

I could see a whole collection built around this one outfit.

You have really brought Miss "Lady Cowboy" to life.

- I love the caramel-color hair and makeup

into the ultra suede.

I will say, because you took the jacket off so quickly,

it seemed like you were lacking fringe.

But when I see you here, you have plenty of fringe.

The trick is let us linger with you a little longer

before you rodeoed it off.

- She was trying to hypnotize us with that ass.

- Is that all your ass, girl? - Yes.

- Turn around. Let me see that thing.

Do what you did on the runway, sister.

Ooh.

- Make it clap!

- Astounding.

- Up next, Miss Vanjie!

- That's leopard, right? - Yes. Yes, it is.

- I thought it was really cute.

Vanjie's just a kitty girl at all times.

It didn't need to be a smack in the face.

And I thought that you executed it great.

- I couldn't really see the leopard.

I see it now, so I didn't really get the kitty girl.

Now I get it a little bit better.

You're the consummate around-the-way girl.

And it felt fun, and it felt on brand.

- I love those buckles, those belts down there.

That's what the pilgrims wore when they landed.

- Straight off the Mayflower. - Yeah.

- Yeah, I remember that.

- Up next, Nina West.

"Cha Cha Bitch."

- Nina West.

- Madison.

- You sexy sister.

Come up and see me sometime.

- I wrote "sophisticated camp."

And your dress is exquisitely made.

Everything fits great, looks great.

It's just... [smacks lips]

To a T. - This is fantastic.

Hair is the right size.

The dish on your head gets cable.

Gorgeous corset, opera-length gloves.

It just makes sense.

- I think we're all kind of gobsmacked because we really

did not expect you to do as well as you've done

in this challenge. - Thank you.

- The proportions are right.

It's really fantastic. It really is.

- Thank you.

- Up next, "Cake and Candy." Angeria.

- This fabric is gorgeous.

It looks so good on your body,

the way everything is sparkling.

When you were walking on the runway, I said, ooh, OK.

She knows how to put stuff together.

I love the hair the most.

That is the icing on the cake.

And this sculptural, crystallized,

undulating hair is so beautiful.

- I like what you did with the adding of the cowl neck

because it changes up the simplicity of a leotard.

That's how to be smart

about wearing leotards is change it up.

So you're not going to go, bitch, Michelle is just

going to say it's a leotard, you know?

- So were you inspired by Roxxxy with the chaps?

No.

I said as long as I make mine different,

I should be all right.

- [laughs] OK.

Thank you, All Stars. I think we've heard enough.

While you untuck backstage, the judges and I will deliberate.

You may leave the stage.

All right, now just between us squirrel friends,

what do you think?

We're looking for the two top All Stars of the week.

- Plastique.

The minute she came around that corner,

it was love at first sight for me.

She took a huge swing with that cape,

and it was such a production.

I loved looking at it.

- I thought that was the best look tonight, really.

I mean, the star is a train.

I thought it was, like, a very new concept.

And she looked so regal to me.

- And her mug was just so on point.

She's such a pretty girl.

- Listen, this was not an easy thing to do.

And ultimately, it turned out so beautifully.

- Gottmik. That outfit was amazing.

I loved the way that it fit her body.

And that pocketbook.

Let me get that bag, girl.

- I thought that was the most fashionable one,

and I really loved it.

I loved how she took it.

I loved the interpretation I saw from the song to the look.

And that would be my other number-one tonight.

- Roxxxy.

This is one of my tops for the night.

I absolutely loved every single thing about this.

From the color of the fabric to the way

she cut it, the way she thought about it.

The denim bodysuit with the bandanna

lining in the décolleté.

Like, all of it makes sense.

Everything was thought out.

- This outfit just blew me away.

I wanted to put the whole outfit in my mouth.

[laughter] Nina West.

I loved everything about her outfit.

I wouldn't have never known that she's not a sewer,

especially the way that the outfit

was contoured to her body. - Yeah.

I've never seen our Nina West look better.

Everything was perfect there.

- Yeah. The fit and construction looked great.

She looked impeccable.

- All right. [claps] Silence.

I've made my decision.

Bring back my All Stars.

Welcome back, All Stars.

Based on your "Make Your Own Kind of Rusic"

runway presentations, I've made some decisions.

The top two All Stars of the week are...

Plastique Tiara...

and Roxxxy Andrews.

- Yes. - All right.

- Condragulations.

You've each earned a Beautiful Benefactress Badge.

And you're both one step closer to winning

the $200,000 grand prize for your charity.

- Thank you.

- Ladykins, the rest of you can take a seat.

- Thank you.

- Kill it, girl. - Love you guys.

- You better get it, bitch. - I love y'all.

- Mwah.

- Let me go and park it to the side.

- Two All Stars stand before me.

Ladies, this is your chance to impress me,

win $10,000 for your charity,

and earn the power to cut off

one of your fellow queens

from receiving a Beautiful Benefactress Badge next week.

The time has come...

For you to Lip Sync for...

Your Charity!

- Roxxxy has never lost a lip sync in her life.

And this season, I've lost three.

I haven't won any money yet,

but I'm going to fight for the Asian American Foundation.

- Good luck,

and don't fuck it up.

- All right, now.

[laughter] - Not filing the nail!

- Whoo!

- Work out, then.

- All Stars, I've made my decision.

Roxxxy, condragulations.

You're a winner, baby.

You've won a cash tip of $10,000 for your charity,

Miracle of Love.

- Thank you so much.

- Plastique, you are free to slay another day.

- All right.

- Please step to the back of the stage.

- Thank you, judges.

- Queens, please join Roxxxy on stage.

Roxxxy, with great power comes great responsibility.

For the final time this season, using the ruby snippers...

The time has come for you to cut off

one of your fellow Queens

from receiving a Beautiful Benefactress Badge next week.

So, Roxxxy, which sister will you scissor?

- It's time to go snip, snip a bitch,

and I know exactly where I'm going.

It's an eye for an eye.

- Snip, snip, my beautiful sister.

- Angeria's like...

- Yeah, I'm used to it. I've been here before.

- Well, Angeria, as you well know,

next week you can compete and even win,

but Roxxxy has cut you off from earning

a Beautiful Benefactress Badge.

- It's the last time they can do it.

- Condragulations, All Stars,

and remember, if you can't love yourself,

how in the hell you going to love somebody else?

Can I get an amen up in here?

- Amen! - All right.

Now let the music play.

- Next time on "All Stars"...

For this week's Maxi Challenge, you'll be starring in

Rosemarie's Baby Shower: The Rusical.

- Can you keep it at "once you get to know me"?

- You said "when." - I did?

- And three. And... no, do it again.

From the top, Nina.

- I am worried about the speed with which we're moving.
