that untucked moment was rough, pearl was really really disappointed with Ginger and you could feel that she truly wasn't angry cos she was used to people hurting/disappointing her. and it was all the more heart-breaking.

She acted like such a shady bitch tbh. Always saying “I don’t wanna be shady BUT…” and then says something really shady. I hope she really did grow but who knows. I don’t really trust shit on social media anymore so this whole thing can be an act 🤷‍♀️ even in AS Ginger said “well all u need to really win is a corset” shading violet. The small things she says and does I don’t like and I don’t agree with.

[@itsfilipbitch5545]

[@bobbyboo22_]

Its jus cuz most drag race fans are toxic

[@jeffreycater5447]

I honestly feel for Pearl because she’s portrayed as a bitch or a cold person just because she’s not as full of emotion on the outside then others are. I’ve been called cold, monotonous, and just a rude person for just how I am. It really does get to you because it becomes an internal struggle whether you’re valid in your how you feel or are you just a rude and cold person. Some people are just not like that and it’s ok but a lot of people make them feel ashamed for it. I honestly lost a lot of respect for Ru on how they treated Pearl and what they said about her after her season.

[@georgielockhart6686]

@@jeffreycater5447 Me too, Ru saying that to Pearl was uncalled for even if you are filming a show. And so Ru pushed her through to the top 3 for no reason because she has been vetoed from the show for telling the truth about what happened to her and how she felt about it? That me realize RuPaul is a front.

[@jhayem636]

What I like about Ginger is that she values her friends. She treats most of the queens especially her sister in s8 as her bestfriend. I salute her for admitting that she did wrong and that she regrets it.

[@topsi0130]

Seeing her reflect and admit to her wrongs is one of the many reasons I love and respect ginger . And I absolutely love pearl . I relate to pearl and look up to her and love her story and loved to seen her thrive after the struggle she's been thru

[@kniftyknames25]

That is a real genuine response and it’s beautiful & more love for her

[@A-XIII]

The biggest issue I had in that finale moment with Ginger is that she didn't follow the challenge. She said she would split the crown with Kennedy and threw Violet and Pearl under the bus, so if it was really meant to follow the assignment like she's staying, Kennedy would've been included in that, but she picked and chose who she talked bad on. Had she done that, I don't think there would've been such hard feelings. Glad to hear she's looking at that differently though.

idk. she’s focusing on just the final 4 speech but she was bitter told the young queens the entire season, especially in untucked. and girl I KNOW “blame the edit” but a lot of what she said was just unnecessarily rude in any context, not a read, not shady, just mean. it’s hard for me to respect anyone that has star power and still needs to be bitter, Bianca literally went out of her way to help younger queens regardless of how she felt about their drag, but Ginger just seemed to always make a backhanded compliment

[@CaulkMongler]

I really do love Ginger, she’s a riot and nobody can quite bring the energy she brings to every set. And maybe it’s the editing, but she was a bit dismissive to the younger queens sometimes. Like a “you don’t really know what you’re talking about” sort of energy

Hey Jerry. Please don’t get angry or piss to other queens because drag race is known to edit a lot of people. Ginger and Kennedy are victims to the edit because of the storyline.

[@drabnerd]

Look, I like Ginger a whole lot and to this day I believe she deserved the S7 crown buuuuuut… there’s something very disingenuous about her. I believe she means everything she said but there’s a lot of melodrama that she plays up for the camera. Like very old school Hollywood actress dramatics. She’s a pageant queen, she knows the deal.

[@stefanilic3962]

Happened on all seasons she's been on.

[@ICONICPARIS]

It's just you

[@RyokoAsakuraLastFan]

I still think Pearl misunderstood the Question Ru asked and took it as an insult. "She has a big personality and you don't. How are you going to overcome it?" "...I think I have a great personality." Pearl mistook not having a big personality, as a bad personality. When it was Ru pointing Pearl can be soft spoken, and shy. To me it, Pearl might be a person that takes any comment to the extreme.

[@Bleherr]

I love Pearl so much and this glamour toad took too long to publicly take responsibility for her messy ness. It makes me think that if she actually would have won her season, would she even regret throwing Pearl under the bus, or is she now taking responsibility because she realized that she's just never going to win rpdr and she's regretful. Wishing PEARL the very best.

[@stefanilic3962]

I wish I can believe that she is sincere, but I just can't... and here's why: 1) she gets emotional with talking about Pearl, but then towards the very end she again went on with how they asked to give reasons why not others. That rubbed me the wrong way - that's one of the reason why she didn't win season 7. She wasn't the first one to say why she should be the winner, and she could've seen from Violet how you can praise yourself without putting other down. 2) she does it again in All Stars 2. She keep throwing Katya under the bus; not talking why she should stay, but how Katya got the worst critiques - even though it's her "best friend" 3) She does it yet again in All Stars 6. She keeps telling how Jiggly is her best friend and has her back - yet she votes for her.

[@luigi57968]

I was about to comment everything you just said, it's so true. I hate when a queen gets emotional and everyone wants to comment shit like "aww she's a sweet heart" and be empathetic for them just because they shed a tear, bet you those are the same people that talk shit about her during Season 7. In my book, Ginger is a Good Queen, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna swallow the shit she's feeding me just because she's "crying" while doing so. Remember, this is the same queen who said the only reason why Violet won season 7 is because production lost her winning take from the finale. LIKE WHAT?!

[@wendykhng1236]

Yeah I agree with you. I do feel that she is abit regretful about Pearl more of because things were never the same but at the same time I feel Ginger is playing up the drama and the emotions as well. To be honest based on Pearl's character, I wouldnt wanna be such close friend with someone like that too. Because it would really hurt to have such a realistic friend. That said, this really reminds me alot of Gia gunn. Gia also doesn't seem to get what Farrah was so upset with her because the ultimate goal is to give good tv. Some people are just best kept at a distance and be workmates. Probably not a bff to share close vulnerable secrets with. I guess that's what Pearl experienced.

[@fushidrashad9268]

This is only my opinion, Pearl took everything very seriously and very sensitive. I am not saying that being sensitive is bad but Ginger is a good friend to him and to the people around her. The finale question was, why you and not your competitor should be America next Drag Superstar and Ginger, coming from pageant scene, that is the way they answered. Pearl took it very personal.

[@pinkythebrain6889]

The RPDR fandom is alarmingly and intensily toxic. The way some of the girls have been treated is disheartening and needs to stop. Many of the KZbinrs covering the show are part of the problem , I mean , who has the time to stay updated on every single IG post or tweet or likes or unfollows the girls do, rehashing the drama, and the shade and reads, the drama whewwww Chileee..it's exhausting. As if it is not enough to disagree with a comment or action from the girls but there's this pernicious need to have to collectively bully and drag them for filth and sacrifice their first born child or something.. if a drag show can elicit such vile behavior from anyone watching the show, seek therapy, have your best judy smack you out of it Rose or talk to someone because it is not that serious it's just drag. Support the talent collectively or not but don't be a bully..we already get more than enough vile energy from homophobes to be doing that to our own community. Growing up in NYC in the 90s, club kids, wigstock, the ballroom scene at its height.. it's clear to me that you don't have to be the most talented performer or dancer/lipsyncher/acrobat/seamstress/etc of the bunch to one day have your own prime time tv show/songs/books/fame #noshade...great connections and knowing the right people goes a long way. #mytwocents
