Drag Race Season 16 Re-Judged (What if I was the Judge)

I know there are already about a thousand videos on this topic, but I thought I would throw my thoughts out here anyway. Let me know what you think, and share your thought as well!

[@Oscyy2]

What the fuck is going on in here on this day.

[@bobdeng8014]

I will never understand rejudging channels and their fascination with removing the Rate a Queen twist

[@satansgrandma6728]

It's literally just so they can put their own personal opinions lmao, and their choices never make any sense anyways

[@felixhatton7334]

It’s so they can favour Mirage basically

[@williamwilliams1368]

I was literally thinking, I feel like Rate A Queen was extremely successful

[@PureHoneyBoo]

I am a huge Nymphia stan but girl… we all know she should’ve been in the bottom for the snatch game. The presentation challenge should’ve gone to Plane and Q. Plus she didn’t know the words for the rusical and could’ve been low there. And her bathroom challenge could’ve been bottom 2 if judged in teams.

[@abhisheksharma-sb3er]

Lol😂 u said u r huge fan and still said presentation challenge should have been gone to Q even though she would have been out after losing to amanda in the lip sync? As for bathroom challenge neither the actual nor the narrator friction has it as a team challenge 😂

[@shaktra1563]

Even if Plane and Q won the presentation challenge, they both should’ve been in the bottom for the political challenge (or Nymphia). And one of them should have left at that point.

[@PureHoneyBoo]

@@shaktra1563 I think Nymphia would’ve been either safe or low depending if they wanted to favour her or Dawn. But Plane and Q were definitely bottom 2. Although Q got more positive critiques than she deserved. How did they praised her look? When she looked like a rotted MJ lol

[@shaktra1563]

@@PureHoneyBoo OH GOD lol that made me cackle. Q definitely looked crazy that week. I enjoyed her runway look with the fringed hat but it still wasn’t as strong as some others, like Morphine or Sapphira. By critiques, you’re right it def would’ve been Q and Plane for the bottom 2. Nymphia would’ve been safe regardless bc of the potion but I do think she still edged Dawn out for the safe. Dawn had a good runway but struggled with the dance and her lyrics. So a bottom for her would’ve made sense. Nymphia could’ve also been low on the some other challenges like the rusical or snatch game but alas thats just not the season we got.

[@RuPaulsDragRaceRejudged]

I definitely understand where you were coming from, but Plane Jane deserved better (IMO)

[@Wild-Speer]

That's fair, I definitely did her dirty by cutting the makeover

[@maximeminassian6002]

Q not being top 2 in the first episode is an immediate no for me lol. She served the most unique talent show by far. Also, the runways were heavily taken into account in Rate a queen, and hers was the best by a landslide. Edit: how is Nymphia safe in snatch game lol ? Ru was literally annoyed at her.

[@abhisheksharma-sb3er]

Ru saved nymphia 😂 if u r considering her being annoyed 😅

[@maximeminassian6002]

@@abhisheksharma-sb3er but she was low on the original episode. Here he puts her as just safe.

[@abhisheksharma-sb3er]

@@maximeminassian6002 ok, don't remember much because I don't see the episode just what comes on drag race official KZbin channel Ya, safe or low but I don't think nymphia deserved bottom 2 for her snatch game, also amanda won that lip sync 😅 didn't mind Q being saved because she had better story and drag

[@shaktra1563]

I mean its was a puppet show…. I agree with the video in the sense it got old quick especially if thats not your kind of humor. It was unique and creative, but that does not mean it was entertaining lol. I think Mirage easily could’ve been top two. It was entertaining, unique with the heel clacks, and she also would have given Sapphira a run for her money in the lipsync.

[@maximeminassian6002]

@@shaktra1563 I’ll be honest, Q and Sapphira were the only talent shows in the first episode I was impressed with. Like, I’m sorry but I’m so bored with talent show lip syncs. Looking back on it, Mirage’s performance is entertaining, but I was lowkey bored the first time I watched, mostly because their already had been 3 lip syncs before her performance.

[@PrincessBellas]

You really don't like Ms.plane lol

[@PureHoneyBoo]

Tbh she only deserved to win those two challenges and the presentation one. Her talent show and makeover were not the best

[@camiloabs3225]

I agree with u ​@@PureHoneyBooshe didn't deserve some wins (at least 2 was undeserved).

[@bryanroberts7703]

​@@PureHoneyBoo I understand the makeover but the talent show was literally their choice whos in the top with rate a queen

[@johnsjogerstenturner9204]

this was unhinged but certainly entertaining

[@aamirdave5202]

ur insane for this lmao.

[@Wild-Speer]

That's how I like it 🤪

[@queensfromisland]

There's no way Megami would win this flowers lipsync, when she totally missed the mark

[@Wild-Speer]

I think she could beat Geneva, I wasn't a huge fan of her other lip syncs

[@queensfromisland]

​@@Wild-Speer Same but I think she was decent overall, and Megami flopped in this particular lipsync, so I don't see any scenario where she would survive

[@maximeminassian6002]

As much a I love Megami, I agree. She completely misunderstood the song she was performing too. And while I doubt Geneva’s performance would be as great as Mhi’ya’s, as long as she embodies the song somewhat correctly, she’s got this in the bag.

[@tyagohiee]

But why would you totally erase the rate-a-queen thing? It defeats the whole point of doing a re-judging if you will just ignore the season's concept. It's like changing a challenge just because you didn't like it.

[@GiveMePopperz]

Lets just say this person does not work for production for a reason

[@srosellerjr]

This seems correct! I agree. Megami should have gone further. And Nymphia should have had more wins.

[@angeletn]

giving nymphia 6 wins is so delusional 💀

[@moktarabdi3688]

Well this even worst than the actual judging (except for Mhi'ya she deserved to be in the top five). For me and only sapphira should have won the season bc she was the only one who was consistent in this season. I love Nymphia tho and I'm happy for her

[@badmanicpower]

ok so here I go. for some episodes, I don’t have a low placement. I also don’t say who the safes are for most of these cause that’s obvious. EPISODE 1: Win - Sapphira Top 2 - Mirage High - Q, Dawn Safe - Morphine Low - Amanda, Xunami EPISODE 2: Win - Nymphia Top2 - Geneva High - Mhi'ya, Plasma Safe - Plane Low - Megami, Hershii EPISODE 3: Win - Nymphia High - Q, Sapphira Low - Plasma Btm - Geneva Elim - Hershii EPISODE 4: Win - Plasma High - Sapphira, Nymphia Low - Dawn Btm - Geneva Elim - Mirage EPISODE 5: Win - Geneva, Mhi'ya, Megami, Nymphia Btm - Amanda Elim - Q EPISODE 6: Win - Dawn High - Nymphia, Megami Low - Mhi'ya Btm - Geneva Elim - Amanda EPISODE 7: Win - Plasma High - Plane, Sapphira Btm - Mhi'ya Elim - Geneva EPISODE 8: Win - Plane High - Sapphira, Mhi'ya Low - Dawn, Nymphia Btm - Morphine Elim - Xunami EPISODE 9: Win - Megami High - Nymphia, Dawn Safe - Morphine, Sapphira Low - Plane Btm - Mhi'ya Elim - Plasma EPISODE 10: Win - Sapphira Top2 - Morphine High - Mhi'ya, Megami Safe - Nymphia Low - Plane, Dawn EPISODE 11: Win - Sapphira High - Nymphia, Plane, Megami Low - Dawn Btm - Morphine Elim - Mhi'ya EPISODE 12: Win - Plane, Sapphira Low - Nymphia, Megami Btm - Morphine Elim - Dawn EPISODE 13: Win - Plane High - Nymphia Low - Morphine Btm - Sapphira Elim - Megami EPISODE 14: Win - Nymphia High - Sapphira Btm - Plane Elim - Morphine

[@user-uu2cj9ct3j]

I feel that, if Q wasn’t there, then Megami would have gotten the baroness role, since they were fighting for it. Then Geneva would have taken Megami’s place

[@andretostesmusic4863]

Nice video boo I enjoyed hearing your opinions, but it's totally illogical to change the Rate a Queen twist because it's the less rigged thing that can possibly exist lol

[@Wild-Speer]

In hindsight, I probably should've left it in. I hope if they bring it back, they let the queens rate them before the judging. Let's see how they really feel before the judges share their thoughts!

[@andretostesmusic4863]

@@Wild-Speer you mean it in the sense that the queens should rate each other without it impacting the placements directly?

i love nymphia and i do think she slayed 5 of those 6 challenges you gave her a win, but please tell in this fantasy season she gets the winner edit she deserves! i hate that she was purpled throughout s16!

[@maximeminassian6002]

The problem is they didn’t have much content for that. The cast has said that Nymphia spent most of the time either being chaotic and making dumb noises or being stressed for the challenges and begging Plane for her immunity potion. So not much material for a winner edit if you ask me.

[@AlexandreFilho1705]

@@maximeminassian6002 she's so weird... i love her but i truly don't think that screams America's next drag superstar

Not putting Q in the top episode 1? That is genuinely a difficult performance to pull off. You don’t appreciate campy drag and it shows.

[@littlemisslizilon]

Mhiya in the top for Power is WILD… I’m still not over rhyming equal with equal, especially her delivery on the second one. Love her, but that was a crazy verse lmao.

[@streamsos]

Sapphira being low in the girl groups is absolutely insane. she was in the top for me for the girls outside of the winning group. I don't necessarily disagree with nymphia's wins except the drag seminar...she was fine. if sapphira was fine then nymphia was mid. and removing the low from snatch game is also a miss because it was really bad. dawn was like sasha's jan crouch like a ghost but nymphias was deliberately bad. i feel like sapphira's slayage of this season is not discussed enough because of these "robbed" narratives. If you think about it, she did great in literally every category of challenge. the only bad one was the makeover but we've already seen her have good design looks like the goth runway. Anyway, I appreciate you sharing your opinion because it must be hard with all these crazy drag race fans. but I must say that this is a pretty crazy video but honestly it isnt terrible. nothing will top drag detective saying mayhem miller won season 10

[@Bussycane]

This is definitely a video😻

[@milkgalactic]

I'm sorry but anyone that puts Mhi'ya in the top 2 for the talent show screams tasteless to me... the girls themselves were not impressed (check their confessionals). Mhi'ya's performance doesn't even compare to some others that had similar approaches like Jax and Kennedy Davenport

[@musiliudeenkaliku]

Megami ??? The top 3 different times clearly you cannot be trusted

In all honesty, the rate a queen messed things up. Cuz hersii should’ve won the talent show and gotten the potion.

[@user-mu7xq6zh6q]

good thing u weren't judging

[@ezemilionis7842]

I do think you were wrong by placing Megami so much in the bottom

[@elicresens5152]

All the flops in this video: 1) Q not being in the top 2, her performance was unique, never seen before on drag race. 2) Mhi’ya being in the top two, top three sure but top 2, No Mama. 3) Q not being in the top on the rdr live challange and Megami was fine not really something to remember (you clearly LOVE Megami, the favoritism is real) 4) Megami wasn’t the best of her group, girl group challenge 5) Saphira being low, gurl, choises 6) Q won against Amanda, she was a mess in that lysinc and we all know Ru doesn’t fw that 7) Megami shouldn’t have been in the top on the doll disign challenge 8) Megami staying after bombing that flowers lypsinc. Also Megami would’ve taken the baroness roll, cuz Q in your theory isn’t there so… 9) Megami wouldn’t have slayed snatch game. (I don’t even hate her tho) 10) Plane didn’t bomb the political performance challenge, Dawn was pretty forgettable. 11) Nymphia also didn’t really slay the presentation challenge, Plane and Q should’ve won. 12) Nymphia dis indeed win deserved but 6 wins? Girllll

[@Case_Walker]

I will not stand for anti megami slander. Megami was definitely the best in the girl group challenge, she was literally nymphia’s ghost writer

[@vstoneman]

Nymphia individually was the best in the comedy challenge. As a group, Q and Plane were the best. And six wins is plausible. 1 for talent show, 2 for ball, three for girl groups, four for stand-up, five for makeover, and six for advert. By Nymphia can do make up, fashion, dancing, although she isn't a talented writer, she destroyed in the advert challenge which was part writing. Nymphia also struggled in snatch game, but she at least channelled impersonating Miss Jane, and Nymphia probed that she can nail scripted comedy, and on the fly comedy to as she interacted with the audience.

[@maximeminassian6002]

He didn’t even say Megami would slay snatch game, he just said she would do a better job than the likes of Xunami or Morphine. If any of the takes about that episode is a flop, it’s that “Nymphia should’ve been sage for taking risks” when she was literally so awful.

[@abhisheksharma-sb3er]

Q didn't do better than amanda in their lip sync in reality, so she was out early in the narrator story

[@vstoneman]

@@abhisheksharma-sb3er Yeah, but Amanda SUCKED at so many challenges. It was her time to leave. And Q should've been safe in the rdr love challenge, and honestly, Amanda or Megan I should've been high in tje judging

I love how most of the comments are complaining about nymphia's 6 wins, She deserved it, but the snatch game should be a bottom

[@jakubpuchalski2583]

What is this video LMAO

[@FreddieJones-BTA]

Geneva not being bottom 2 in the doll design challenge is maximum cope, she's provided the worst looks of both design challenges she was in, and I firmly believe Amanda would be at the very least low, if not just safe, because her ball look was one of the better safe looks imo

[@maximeminassian6002]

Amanda’s final look was absolutely awful lmao she should’ve been at least low over Mhi’ya in the ball. She was absolutely saved by rate a queen and many queens (notably Dawn and Mirage) placing her much higher than she deserves so that she wouldn’t be in the bottom. She absolutely could do a worse job than Geneva.
