Post by bunniefuu »

- Previously

on RuPaul's Drag Race...

And then there were three.

Jujubee.

- What a sin. Ah!

I have never been blown

like that.

- I just absolutely loved her.

I thought she was dynamite.

- Miss Tyra.

Was your barbecue cancelled?

Your grill is f*cked up.

- Tyra Sanchez, the other Tyra.

- I'm America's sweetheart.

Happy birthday, Mr. President.

- What do the bags say?

They say "Santino"?

[uproarious laughter]

It's daddy's little girl.

Tyra Sanchez, you raised the bar

on this competition.

Oh, my sweet gherkins!

You tore it up, Miss Thing.

Raven.

- Am I a ten?

Cocka-doodle-doo.

- The blending.

It's severe up in here.

- A perfect ten.

- I would not leave my man

in a room alone with you.

- Don't do it.

I'll work...it.

- One of you will be crowned

the next drag superstar.

And tonight...

[all screaming]

The final three queens

go head-to-head

and toe-to-toe.

- Oh!

- Snap out of it, girl.

In this season's

stunning conclusion...

Ladies, America's

next drag superstar is...

[cheering]

The winner

of RuPaul's Drag Race

will receive a lifetime supply

of NYX cosmetics

and be the face

of nyxcosmetics.com,

an exclusive

one-year PR contract

with the leading LGBT firm

Project Publicity,

be featured in l.a.Eyeworks'

legendary

designer eyewear campaign

and headline

Logo's Drag Race Tour

featuring

exceptional Absolut drinks,

and a cash prize of $25,000.

And may the best woman win.

- Top three, b*tches.

- Oh, I know that's right.

- Get up in here.

- "Do you to the fullest.

Love, Tati."

I saw so much more in Tatiana.

She just kind of halted

and stopped.

- You gonna clean this mirror?

- Why do I have to clean it?

- 'Cause you out-lip-synch her.

- And you sent her home.

And that was your friend.

- How did you feel having

to lip-synch for your life

a third time?

- I thought I was going home.

- Memoirs of a Gay-sha:

The Story of Jujubee...

both: I'm still here.

- What if I wasn't here,

though?

- Then Tati would be here, and

there would be no competition.

Only a competition

between me and Raven.

- We're in the top three.

- Ah!

[all laughing]

There were two times

where I thought, "f*ck."

And it was the times

I was having

to lip-synch for my life,

and I thought, "Damn it."

- Oh, there were three times

where I thought that too.

- But we made it, bitch.

- I thought I was going home

that week

when all my bridesmaids

f*cking jumped on me.

- I think you need manners,

girl.

- You don't need to tell me

anything, Miss Thing.

It was just like,

"I need to let her know."

'cause I didn't want you

to go home and...

and be like that with people

and have people talk about you

and you not wonder why.

- But you said it

in front of Ru,

which made the judges think

a completely different thing

about me.

- It did at the time,

and now they see it

differently,

and they see that you've grown.

So I did you a favor.

[clicks tongue]

- Ooh, girl.

You've got she mail.

Well, look who's here.

The best of the best.

You stand on the shoulder pads

of a dynasty of drag queens

who have come here before you.

So forget about those

bickering real housewives.

They ain't seen

nothing yet...

till they go head-to-head

and toe-to-toe

with the realness

that's about to explode

as one queen survives the fight

to be crowned

America's next drag superstar.

[car engine running]

- Surprise.

- Good for us.

- Hello, hello.

- Whoo.

I'm shocked.

I'm like, "Oh, my God,

what are you guys doing here?"

- Congratulations on making it

into the final three.

all: Thank you.

- We're here because RuPaul

is getting ready

for your final challenge,

inspired by some

of the great bitchy catfights

of all time.

You'll be costarring

in RuPaul's new music video,

Jealous of My Boogie.

- You'll need to learn

to fight dance

with choreographer

Ryan Heffington.

- And then with video director

Mathu Anderssen

you'll each have your moment

to act opposite RuPaul

in an over-the-top

dramatic scene.

- Plus, you'll work

with style expert Robert Verdi

to turn out two looks

inspired by '80s

power bitch fashion.

- This is your moment to show us

every bit of the charisma,

uniqueness, nerve,

and talent you've got.

- Gentlemen,

start your engines.

And for the last time...

both: Don't f*ck it up.

- Not only are we that one step

closer to winning this,

but we're now gonna be

in RuPaul's new video.

[all screaming]

So we need to be on our A game.

This is the final challenge.

- [lisping] I'm so excited

right now, guys.

- Hello.

- Hi, ladies.

How's it going?

- Hi, I'm Jujubee.

- Hi, I'm Ryan.

- The first thing

that we go out to learn

is the fight choreography

with choreographer

Ryan Heffington.

- So let's go from the top.

Let's come up here.

The inspiration for this piece

was taken from the classic

TV show Dynasty.

It's bitchy, it's exciting,

it's campy.

So from the get-go,

it's a stomp, stomp, stomp.

You're a video vixen now,

yeah, okay?

I just think they really have

to be stars,

you know, when they're

in front of the camera.

They should already be living

as if, you know,

they are the new RuPaul.

- ♪ Can't stop now ♪

♪ Won't slow down ♪

- Five, six, hup.

- ♪ I gotta emulate the BPM ♪

- Go.

Up, down, up, up, ah.

Up, up...

- Ryan's very just high-octane.

He's very, like, "Duh, duh."

- [scatting]

Ooh, uh, f*cking fierce, uh.

Pop pop, pop pop.

Four, five, six,

seven, eight.

Click, click, click,

click, click, click.

Hup, hup, hup.

Walk it out.

A little bit of booty

thrown in.

Pff, pff, pff,

pop pop, pop pop.

Yes, cool.

- He is the tiniest

little fiercest

little white man

in the world.

- Circle, circle, circle,

circle, circle, circle, circle,

and circle and circle

and circle.

- f*ck, I keep...

I forget that part.

I think it's gonna be hard

counting out those first beats

to know when we start circling

like a shark.

- Raven's a little bit slow

picking up choreography,

and that's a little bit

of a concern.

Click.

Other side, click, click.

- So it's...

- Not back to front.

- Okay.

- Let's listen to it 'cause

what...it's really fast, okay?

- Tyra's really monotone

with her attitude,

which makes me

a little bit nervous

because you need to be

hitting it in rehearsal

in order to hit it later on.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

This has to be bigger.

Don't fake it, yeah?

If they don't bring

their personality

and the steps are a little shy

of being what they should be,

it could be a disaster.

So and then I think from there,

you guys just kind of catfight

like true Dynasty fashion.

This is where it gets

really dramatic.

Five, six, seven, eight!

It shouldn't be

six, seven, eight.

It should be six, seven, bam!

And smack her, okay?

- Keep your heels off my toes.

- Keep your toes

under my heels.

I hope these b*tches

don't take my eye out.

- And you're just gonna put

your hand on her wig.

So you have to really be careful

of her heels.

- The timing needs to be perfect

so it looks real.

- Hit, five, six, seven, eight.

Uh-huh.

Jujubee's overall realness

of being totally catty

and bitchy,

if she can really bring that

up to another level,

it'll be great.

Let's go back from here.

Just shake it down.

We have 15 minutes.

Let's go.

Ah, ah, ah.

See, you have to hold.

You come across, Raven.

You go one, two, three, four,

and look, six, seven, eight,

then walk, two, three, four,

to shove.

- Got it, okay.

- Yeah?

- When you're doing it

with three people total

and two of them are nailing it

and you're over there,

like, barely hammering it...

I'm thinking this is

gonna be a catastrophe.

- Okay, cool.

Thanks, ladies.

- Thank you.

- Bye.

- I know y'all jealous of my

[high-pitched voice] boogie.

- Don't be jealous

of my boogie.

- Oh, my God,

I feel so fierce.

Did you guys ever think

that when you were a little boy,

that you were gonna be

in a RuPaul video?

- No.

- No, me neither.

I thought I was gonna be

a doctor.

We have a ton of stuff to do

for this video sh**t, okay?

We have to do a scene

with RuPaul.

We have to learn the words.

- Ru?

- Who is it?

- Who is it?

Like, with attitude.

- Who is it?

We have to prepare

a fight scene,

and then we have lunch

with Ru.

- Five, six, seven, eight.

- Hi, Ru.

- Tyra Sanchez, have a seat.

- Thank you.

- The other Tyra.

Two.

- Thank you.

- You've come a long way.

- What's been the toughest part

of this?

- Staying focused

and not worrying so much

about my son

and what's going on back home.

Like, and I'll pray to God,

and the tears just fall.

- Why do you cry, though,

when you pray?

- Because I just feel

that God is listening.

I held it in for a long time,

and, like, that's what made me,

like, angry.

- Anger is always

a symptom of fear.

What are you afraid of?

- I'm afraid of losing my son.

I really, really want to be

a better father to Jeremiah.

- So winning this contest

would mean what to you?

- I've been through so much

from being kicked out

to living on my own

and then raising a son.

So it's like a fresh start.

Just because I made mistakes

doesn't mean his life

has to be a mistake.

I was so surprised that I told

her about things in my past,

what went on with me.

Ru has definitely, like, grown,

to be, like, my drag mother.

- Thank you, Tyra.

- Thank you.

- Hey, Jujubee.

How are you?

- Hi.

- What's going on? I'm Robert.

- Nice to meet you.

Robert Verdi is giving me

a consultation.

I'm like, "Oh, my God,

you smell so good

and you're so handsome."

- I'm gonna give you

an outfit to wear,

and I'm gonna help you pick out

an '80s look in your wardrobe.

You have to channel these

dramatic fabulous women

of the '80s.

Are you aware of any of them?

- No.

- What year were you born?

- '84.

- Oh, my God.

- I know.

- [mouths words]

What do you think you're

gonna do for this challenge?

- Does this do anything?

- These two things

go hand in hand?

- Yeah.

- It looks more

Ringling Brothers than '80s.

- I've seen

Whitney Houston's videos.

She just looked

like she was going to the prom.

- This has an '80s vibe,

but the shoulder would be...

- Bigger, right?

- More defined.

The waist would be more defined.

Who were the women

in the canon of history

that you look to

for inspiration?

- Honestly,

I look at Mary J. Blige,

and I look at, like,

the Beyoncés and all that.

- It's not really history.

- Yeah, and, you know...

- That's contemporary.

- I'm a little nervous.

I have no idea where to start.

- Hello, Raven.

- Hello, how are you?

- Have a seat, darling.

- We get to go have

a one-on-one lunch with Ru.

- Oh, a buffet.

- Yes.

- Would you like a mint,

darling?

- Just one.

- Just the one.

- There.

- Thank you.

Sitting there having lunch

with RuPaul

was one of the most surreal

things I've ever done.

- You know,

I wonder what it's like

to be sequestered this way.

Do you feel like

a prisoner of w*r?

- I mean, I do miss

talking to my mom.

I speak to my dad, you know,

a couple times a month.

I guess I'm closer with my mom

than I am my dad.

- They're not together.

- No.

- When did they separate?

- When I was seven.

- You know, I...

my parents divorced

when I was seven also.

It was really tough on me,

and I think I went into music,

into sort of

an imaginary world.

What reaction did you have

to their divorce?

- I look at my mother.

She's, like, my golden

Oscar statue, you know?

And I love her.

And when I saw

what she went through

with my father's divorce,

it k*lled me.

And I swore, I said,

"I will never do that

to anybody in my life."

And whenever I've gotten

into a relationship,

it's really k*lled me

because I'm, like,

"Why do I have to be

my mom now?"

And a lot of times when you're

with someone and they hurt you,

you don't want to have

anything else to do with them.

- Expectations

lead to resentments,

and when you allow people

to just be themselves,

the relationship

can really grow.

- It was very nice to sit there

and talk with Ru one-on-one

and it be about me,

not all about drag and shop

and all that.

- Our lunch has to end now.

Can we get a doggy bag?

- Thank you.

- [laughing]

- Tell me about your persona.

Tell me about Tyra.

- Well, Tyra is, like,

sophisticated, glamorous.

- Okay, you're gonna be

sh**ting a video,

and your characters

are going to be styled

to look like they're

'80s vixens.

It was a decade of power

for women,

and women were really defined

stylistically

with very sharp shoulders,

very small waist,

and some bling.

- I wasn't born

when the '80s were hot.

I was born in the late '80s,

like, '88.

- You have the privilege

of working

with one of the most amazing

performers in the world,

who draws inspiration

from the most incredible women

in history.

And you should probably

take a minute to research

because I think you'll be able

to refine your character.

- Darling.

- Hi.

- Welcome.

- How are you?

- Have a seat.

- I will.

- How many

of these delicious mints?

- Just two.

- The two.

I'm on a diet,

so I'll just have one.

You were in the bottom two

three times.

- Three times.

- How did that happen?

- Well, I've been in

the bottom two three times here,

and I've been in the bottom two

a lot of times beforehand.

- Tell me about that.

- Just growing up, you know,

having people

just make fun of you.

I used to answer to f*gg*t.

- Really?

- I just accepted it

'cause I knew it wouldn't stop,

and then finally, I just said,

"You know, don't call me that."

- Wow.

You know,

you got a lot of strength

for such a young lady.

What do you think your dad would

think of you in this contest?

- Oh, he would give me

the biggest hug,

and he would say,

"Go for it."

You know,

now it's Jujubee's journey.

Talking to Ru today,

she brought up situations

that I never talk about,

and it was just so comforting

to have her just listen.

- Thank you, darling.

- Thank you so much, mama.

- All right,

I'll see you later on.

- So do you have

any reference point

for what this challenge

is about?

- I would picture

the Carringtons.

- You do picture

the Carringtons.

- Yes.

- So you do know who they are.

- Yes.

- Are you the oldest

of the remaining...

- I'm the oldest.

- So you actually have

maybe an upper hand in it

'cause you were more in tune

to this decade

than the other two would be.

- Yes.

If you want to work

and you want to have longevity

in this business,

you need to know a little bit

about everything.

- [laughs]

I love that jacket.

How many shoulder pads

are in yours?

- Two.

I'm like...

- Are you ready?

Are you ready?

- You got black nail polish?

- Mm-hmm.

Should I even risk it

and try to polish them?

- That's up to you, girl.

This is a competition.

- Let's make movies.

Okay, here we go.

- So I'm the first one out

for the dramatic scene with Ru.

- Action.

- RuPaul.

- Who is it?

- Step into her, Raven.

- RuPaul.

- Who is it?

- I really need to talk to you.

I know that...

I forgot what my...my line is.

- Cut.

And action on Raven.

- RuPaul.

- You know I can't see you

before the show.

It's against the rules.

- Well, I'm sick of your rules,

I'm sick of your challenges,

and I'm sick of your show.

- Cut.

Try and get a little more

roller coaster in your ride.

- Okay.

- Do you know what I mean?

- I'm sick of your rules,

I'm sick of your challenges,

and I'm sick of your show.

What about me?

What about Raven?

- I was a little disappointed

at first with Raven,

but she took direction,

and she paid attention,

and there was

an actual progression.

- What about Raven?

Oh! Oh. Oh!

Oh! Oh.

- Ru?

- Who is it?

- I am so glad

I caught you alone.

- Cut.

Can you just make it

a little more seductive,

just throw in a bit of that?

Action.

- What about me?

What about Tyra?

- Snap out of it.

Pull yourself together, girl!

- Cut.

I want you to play this

a little bit...

it's like

when she shuts you down,

be really hurt

when she slaps you,

be really hurt.

- Like, hood?

Like how hood?

- Go for it.

- Oh, hood or hurt?

- Hurt.

- When he said "hurt,"

I thought he said "hood."

- Well, do we want that?

- That sounds pretty good.

- I am sick of your rules.

What...about me?

- Snap out of it, girl.

You better pull yourself

together.

- You are just jealous

of my boogie.

- [laughing]

- [laughing]

- Hello, darling, you gorgeous

little shoulder-padded monster.

- I feel 100% confident

about this.

I was a theater major, honey.

I know what to do.

- And action.

- RuPaul.

- I can't see you

before a show.

It's against the rules.

- I'm tired of these rules.

I'm tired of the challenges.

I'm tired of this show!

What about me?

What about Jujubee?

Ah!

[babbling tearfully]

- Jujubee came fully loaded

and a surprise

by throwing herself

on the floor.

- You're jealous of my boogie!

- But Jujubee

just is a drag clown.

Cut.

Cut, cut, c-cut, c-cut, cut.

- Right from the top, please.

- Would you do it

once more for me?

- What about me?

What about Jujubee?

- Snap out of it.

- [singing indistinctly]

♪ Jealous ♪

Oh, yes, I'll do that.

Oh!

It's time for us to sh**t

the dance routine

for RuPaul's video.

I'm so excited!

It's us three.

We're the Supremes right now,

okay?

And we have to sh**t

this video,

and it needs to be perfect.

Are we all doing bodysuits?

- Oh, those look too big.

- Raven and I got ready

so quickly.

- Yeah, you could see my

bathing suit lines in it.

Oh, well.

- We picked out our outfits.

We put it on.

I feel like Lucy Liu.

- I don't like these.

That looks too small,

doesn't it?

- Tyra had to go

through every f*cking thing.

- Can I fit this?

Can I put on a tutu?

I don't like this.

Look at my stomach.

You don't buy stuff in my size,

do y'all?

- Girl, they gave me

these clothes; they fit me.

You're just a little taller

than I am.

Like, you can find something.

- This isn't gonna work.

At all. None of this.

I have so much to choose from.

It was just so hard

to choose something

that would top everything

I've done this entire season.

- How are you feeling, Tyra?

- They didn't have no f*cking

Clothes to fit me.

And now I don't feel pretty.

- Action!

- One, two, three, four,

five, six!

Hup, hup!

Tyra snatched

Ms. Raven's wig twice.

- My wig didn't come off.

I had it pinned on

the right way.

They knew we was sh**ting

a video.

- You got three drag queens

rolling around

on top of each other.

There's heels, wigs,

jewelry, nails.

Something's bound to happen.

- Ow, my eye.

Ow, ow, ow.

- You okay?

- Ow, ow, this one.

Is it bleeding?

- No.

- Oh, my God.

- Open it up.

You want me to blow?

- It went right

into that heel.

Let's just give Jujubee

a moment.

- Do I look fine?

If I look fine,

I'll keep going.

- You look fine.

- Okay, let's do it.

- Fix your wig.

- [grunts]

- Yeah, I think she's got

the fighting thing down.

- Do I even have makeup

left on my face?

- Yes, you do.

- Ow.

- Yes.

[clapping]

- Y'all b*tches

got your ass whooped.

- You okay, mama?

- It burns.

But I can't do anything

about it.

I just hope it doesn't swell up.

There's a cut right there.

And it's bruising right here.

I put makeup over it,

a little bacteria cream,

and I was like,

"Let's just keep doing it."

This doesn't look '80s to you,

huh?

- I think it looks more '70s.

I see Juju and Tyra,

and I realize they don't know

a thing about Dynasty

or Knott's Landing

or Dallas, none of that.

- Why wasn't I born earlier?

- So I think maybe I have

an upper hand

on what my look should be.

I'm channeling Lisa Lisa,

I'm channeling Kelly LeBrock,

and I'm channeling Tina Marie.

- All I know is

'80s style is tacky.

It's huge ass shoulder pads.

It's big unruly, ugly hair,

really tiny waists,

and fat asses.

There we go, dahling.

- The way that

I'm gonna pull it together

for the '80s challenge is,

like, they had big hair,

they believed

in their chandelier earrings,

and they like

the Lite-Brite colors.

Do I look '80s?

- Yes.

You look like you're going

to the prom.

- What's wrong, mama?

- Nothing, baby.

My eye is just in pain

right now.

- Okay, well, basically

what we're gonna do is,

you're gonna be sharing

the same space.

I want you all to write "no"

at the same time.

- Okay.

- So, you know, it's like,

"No, no, no, no."

Yep. You ready?

Okay, here we go.

- Standby, track.

Here we go.

Track in.

- Track, please.

we're gonna be walking in here.

And it's nerve-racking.

None of us can call it.

None of us knows

what's gonna happen.

- Did you honestly expect this?

- Yes.

- Me too.

[laughs]

- If you win, can you imagine?

- I know.

And it would gag

a whole bunch of people

that didn't believe in me.

- And that's the thing

I'm excited about.

There are those people

who are like,

"I think Raven's boring."

Yeah, so don't dance around it.

Don't sing live.

But I'm fierce at what I do,

so eat my f*cking sh*t.

- How is it gonna change

your life, Tyra?

- I'll have a place to stay,

first of all.

And I'd be able to get my son

to come.

Like, he'll be able to stay

with me

and live with me there.

- Where are you staying now,

girl?

- Girl, I stay

with my drag mama.

I stay on her couch.

I need this.

I couldn't dare go home

without the crown and the title

of being America's

next drag superstar.

- So is anyone nervous?

- No.

Are you?

- I'm nervous.

- I'm nervous.

- I'm not nervous.

And I know being nervous

is normal and fine,

but I'm ready.

- [laughing]

- Hello, judges.

How are you, Santino?

- Doing great, Ru.

- Merle, how are you tonight?

- I'm nervous for the girls.

- We've made it

to the final lap.

Tonight, we're crowning

America's next drag superstar.

Santino, Merle,

you've been here

since the beginning.

You know these ladies

inside and out.

So tonight, there are no

guest judges, Miss Thing.

It's just family.

- Good.

- [laughs]

- Now are you ready for their

final main stage presentation?

- Ready.

- Bring it on.

- Gentlemen,

start your engines.

And may the best woman win.

Jujubee.

Ooh.

- Le pouf.

- I love this dress.

Oh, I was living for myself,

girl.

I wish I could have seen

my reflection.

- Yes, touch all of the skin.

- Touch all of the skin,

darling.

Oh...

I think Jujubee must have

bronzed her panties.

Ooh. Cabaret.



That's so Raven,

that's so cabaret.

- I feel fabulous.

I feel like, "Wow, I'm here.

I made it."

And I'm coming out

the way I want to come out.

- Willkommen

to RuPaul's Drag Race.

And all that jazz.

Ooh.

Yes, mama. Style proper.

Tyra Sanchez, the other Tyra.

Yummy.

- Do you know

where you're going to?

- Yes. Mahogany.

I'm a winner, baby.

- I am so nervous right now.

And it hit me that, bitch,

you have a great chance at being

America's next drag superstar.

- The Beverly Hills Hotel.

- Ah, yeah.

- Polo Lounge.

- Yes. Poolside.

Oh, Tyra, darling.

Dive into the deep end.

Mm, the water's fine.

- [laughs]

- Welcome, ladies.

Tonight, one queen's life

will be changed forever.

Which one of you has

the charisma,

uniqueness, nerve, and talent

to be the next drag superstar?

Let's find out.

Jujubee.

Let's take a look at highlights

from your final challenge.

- ♪ I hit the scene ♪

♪ They turn green ♪

♪ It can't be easy ♪

♪ I don't envy them ♪

- ♪ Oh, ho ♪

- ♪ Don't be jealous

of my boogie ♪

♪ Don't be jealous

- I am tired of the rules.

I'm tired of these challenges.

I'm tired of your show.

What about me?

What about Jujubee?

- Hmm.

- Oh...

- Snap out of it, Jujubee.

Wow.

[laughing]

- Wow.

- Tell me about

the acting challenge.

Was it difficult?

- Not stepping into your light,

that was really, like,

my concern.

- Trust me, I moved all

the girls out of my light.

- If this was

a regular TV show or movie,

I would say, "Jujubee

is overacting like crazy."

But for Dynasty '80s,

it was perfect.

- I'm a little let down

that you've chose to wear

this dress at the end here.

I get where you were going

with it,

but not the perfect dress

for this evening.

- I think the necklace makes

the dress look less expensive

and less fashion.

- Do you want me

to take it off?

- Sure, if you want

to take it off.

- No, no, I'll take it off.

- Let's see what it looks like.

- Yeah, you look

so much more expensive and chic.

- Oh, right, yes, it does,

actually.

- I'm gonna leave it right here.

- Okay.

Now, if it winds up

in my pocketbook,

don't hate me.

- Girl, there's

three stars missing.

You can already have it.

[laughter]

- Next up, the other Tyra.

♪ I know you're watching ♪

♪ I know

♪ I see you looking ♪

♪ I know you're watching ♪

♪ No, no, no ♪

♪ Don't be jealous

- I am sick of your rules,

your challenges, your show.

What about me?

What about Tyra?

- Snap out of it.

The fighting.

[chuckles]

You were pretty rough.

I couldn't take my eyes off

of you in that scene there.

- Usually when you see

girls fight,

they're not worried

about being pretty.

It's, "I'm gonna b*at

this bitch ass,"

and so I'm like...

that's all I'm thinking.

I just wanted that

to really happen.

- You snatched her wig off.

- I didn't do it intentionally.

It was like

I was reaching for her,

and the wig came off, but...

- You didn't do it

intentionally twice?

- [laughs]

- Love the hair.

Love how just open

and popping your face is.

It's really stunning.

Overall, I think

it's a great look.

- Now, are you gonna let

your son watch this show?

- I think that this might be

the first time

that he realizes

what daddy does.

And I'm...I'm pretty sure

he's gonna...

we're gonna sit down

and watch it together.

- All right, Tyra.

Thank you very much.

- Thank you.

- Now let's move on

to Miss Raven.

- ♪ Don't, don't,

don't, don't, don't ♪

♪ Don't, don't, don't, don't ♪

♪ Don't, don't, don't, don't,

- ♪ Don't be jealous

- Well, I'm sick of your rules,

I'm sick of your challenges,

and I'm sick of your show.

What about me?

What about Raven?

- Come here.

Closer.

Let mommy make it better.

That was just too good

to pass up!

What was the toughest part

about the acting challenge?

- Looking at your face.

- [laughs]

I get that a lot.

[laughs]

- You always looked beautiful,

but that was...

probably the hardest part

was looking at your face

and trying not to just be

like...

- [laughing]

Now, what are you serving us

on the main stage tonight?

- Well, I have this corset,

and I think this just

kind of speaks for itself.

- What does it say?

- I'm the next drag superstar.

- [laughing]

- Don't slap me again,

please.

[laughter]

- I'm so in love

with this outfit.

I love a black, like,

floral thing

because you expect organza

and petals

to be kind of pink.

And when they're black,

it's kind of like this

weird Gothic feeling.

- In the fight scene,

there was a period of time

over a minute

where I couldn't even see you.

Tyra was standing up,

and, like, you kind of got lost.

- I didn't want to hurt anyone,

so I didn't go for it

completely.

- Your '80s look,

it was totally '80s.

If there's any time

in this whole competition

that you really looked

like Kelly LeBrock,

it was...

it was that time.

- All right.

Thank you.

Ladies.

While you wait in

the Interior Illusions Lounge,

the judges and I

will deliberate.

[car engine turns over]

Okay, here we are

at the moment...

- Oh, my God.

- That it all boils down to.

Let's start with Jujubee.

She has star quality.

- Mm-hmm.

- But is she

the next drag superstar?

- To me, in the context

of these three people,

she looked a little bit

like a tourist.

Her level of iconography

in terms of fashion and beauty

is not where the other two's is.

- She excelled

in the book challenge

because she's a clever girl.

She's clearly the most

intelligent of all the girls.

- I'm not sure.

- Really?

- I think Tyra

is incredibly intelligent.

- Let's talk about Tyra.

She's not polished.

She is very hood.

She's very street.

But the fact that she's learned

these old-school tricks

that we've seen displayed

on this stage

at such an early age

and wowed us with them...

even her tenacity to

"accidentally" rip her wig off,

you know, she's saying,

"I'm here."

- Right.

- "I'm the star."

- I love people

who are the sh*t

and know they are the sh*t.

I get both of that from...

from Tyra and Raven.

- Yeah.

- I just think her personality

is so interesting and complex.

And that is part of stardom.

- She's been able to show us

so many different looks

and be

so many different women.

- Raven is really more

the fashion-forward girl.

Raven has

undeniable star quality.

- Superstar quality.

- Mm-hmm.

You know, normally right now,

I would say

I've made my decision.

But I can't say that I have.

I must see them lip-synch

for their lives

to make my decision.

Silence.

Bring back...my girls.

Welcome back, ladies.

We've reached that point

in our journey

where one path ends

and another begins.

I'm so proud

of each and every one of you.

- It almost seems like

RuPaul's got a shotgun

and is just waiting to, like,

"Okay, you're not it,

you're not it."

That's what it feels like,

a sitting duck.

- Jujubee.

You've brought a light

to this competition

week after week,

a light that nothing

and no one can extinguish.

You are a bright star.

But sadly, you are not

the next drag superstar.

I'm sorry, Juju.

- Thank you.

- We will see you soon.

But for now, sashay away.

- Bye.

I'm not bitter.

I'm disappointed.

I wish I was up there

lip-synching.

But I'm still a winner,

and I'm proud of my girls.

I'll get my time.

"Love, Juju...B."

- Tonight, my two best girls

will lip-synch to my single

Jealous of My Boogie.

- This is my first time

I'm gonna have to lip-synch.

I am so nervous right now.

- Ladies, this is your last

chance to impress me

and win the title

of America's

next drag superstar.

- I'm ready to win this sh*t.

- The time has come...

for you to lip-synch...

for your life.

Good luck.

And for the last time,

don't f*ck it up.

Bravo, brava.

- Brava.

- That was amazing.

- Wow.

- Ladies.

I have made my decision.

The winner

of RuPaul's Drag Race,

America's next

drag superstar, is...

Tyra Sanchez.

[applause]

- Oh, my God.

[hyperventilating]

- Girl, turn to the camera.

You want to take your shoes off?

Girl.

Do you need someone?

Can we get someone over here,

please?

She can't breathe. Literally.

- [continues hyperventilating]

- Tyra, you're gonna be okay.

- Are you okay?

- Okay, do you need water?

Do you need...

Does she need to breathe

in the paper bag?

- [exhales deeply]

It's like I had

an out-of-body experience

and I just...

for some reason,

I forgot to breathe.

- Just relax for now, Tyra.

We're gonna get your wig

back on your head.

Take your time, baby.

Tyra, you're gonna be okay.

We're gonna continue.

Raven.

I want to thank you

from the bottom of my heart.

You are unforgettable.

And that...is so Raven.

- Thank you.

- Good luck, my dear.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Now sashay away.

- [silently] Thank you.

I came in second place.

That's an amazing thing

out of 12 people.

I'm gonna leave this competition

with my head held high.

I'm gonna go off

and do something fierce,

fabulous, fun, and funky,

the four Fs.

- My queen.

- Go girl.

Yes!

- Wear this crown with pride.

The other Tyra is dead.

Long live the new Tyra.

[applause]

All right.

- Being America's

next drag superstar

is going to change my life

dramatically.

I'll be able to take care

of Jeremiah,

and I'll be able to start

his future now.

- Tyra, let the world be

jealous of your boogie.

Now walk.

[applause]

- I am Tyra "the other Tyra"

Sanchez.

And I am America's next drag...

superstar.
