@@izzyg6465 I mean that she isnt as great as the show always wanted to sell it. She won for being a butt kisser and playing out the dumb games from Rupaul. It has always been about Rupaul, dont get it twisted. He lets people shine but no more than herself, she wants to remain as the biggest star and thats why Alaska is the perfect "champion" for the franchise. Interesting No?

[@antonhaq3503]

@@AB-wv6pf No not intetesting, just your conjecture. I wasn't even thinking of drag race which isn't a surprise as she's established herself with years of continual work. To insinuate she won All Stars because Ru wants a weak winner is plain ridiculous. Ru presents and its completely seperate from the contestants, Ru doesnt outshine everyone at all, unless youre referring to aesthetics and its silly to compare her role as all powerful judge with the queens competing. Alaska won because she excelled, so who was more talented that lost to her? Alaska is the whole package, she's become a decent singer, is naturally hilarious, can ad lib, improvise, act, do stand up, variety, host, present, write/create and give top notch, polished, accomplished drag. Alaska will be around for a long time, because that kind of talent will always have a demand.

[@scheibez]

@@antonhaq3503 i agree- but there’s no use in lying to yourself & saying alaska wasn’t hand-picked by rupaul as the winner from the start. she was saved a few times throughout the show, & the whole season was clearly crafted so she could win.

[@toniasprague8237]

I’ve always loved Alaska, and will continue to. Though she handled being labelled a snake with grace and humour, it didn’t feel right to me because even when you look back on her seasons, she’ll talk with everyone and be a true friend to them. Like, a brat? Yes. Misguided in saving your friends? Yes (but if you’re not in that situation, you can’t say you wouldn’t do the same). But a snake? Sorry, but no.

[@DollFacePeter]

Agreed. Her decision to save her friends in AS2 irks me but her being nice to Jinx at the tail end of season 5 while roxy and detox went off at her nonstop will forever redeem her for me
