The Moment We Knew That Each Drag Race Queen Would Win Their Season

[@YeastyBrioche]

One MILLION views! WOW! I never imagined this little video would be so popular... or so controversial! Nonetheless the comments have been the best part of this for me. Even if you disagree with something, we are all united by our love of this great show and we must show love and kindness to all the queens AND each other! Please check out my other drag race videos if you enjoyed this one, and buy the Drag Race Taboo game on Etsy because it is an absolute riot! www.etsy.com/listing/810520309/tab-ru-game-rupauls-drag-race-printable

All Stars 5: Shea's "I'm black!" entrance line. We all know that this season is for her

[@AH-nr1cw]

Agree, last full season i watched was season 7 after I just saw an episode here and there b/c of school. But seeing the drag race drama channels and how angry people were at her not winning season 9, Then how excited a lot of people were at her coming back for allstar 5 it was kind of obvious she was going to win. Sad for the other girls though, since they really didn't have a chance and if they had voted her out regardless if she had not been the best competitor they would have received an immense amount of backlash. Juubee and Alexis should have came back another season then they would have had a better chance at winning,

The season 12 one is so true. Season 12 arguably had the strongest top 3 of any season. Its not shading Jaida. Gigi was incredible. She got 4 challenge wins and is now tied for the record for most challenge wins, with Sharon Needles and Shea Coulee. Jaida was consistent in her looks and fashion, as well as being overall likeable and sometimes funny. Crystal had the most improvement, and was definitely the most unique. It was a tough choice. No one could be certain with that one.

[@thefactspherefromportal2740]

Jaida stan here, but Gigi also never had to lip sync for her life, technically she has the highest score!

[@kelp5801]

I agree that S12 had a strong top 3, however i think track record is losing its validity since there's a lot of times that the fans and even the queens themselves disagree with who won which challenge. I mean, Crystal couldve easily had 2 or 3 wins. Gigi did constantly good but was obviously favored by Rupaul to take the wins,and also was saved from the bottom during the droop challenge (because she wouldve been unable to beat Jan or Widow) and Jaida imo couldve been high for the makeover bc Crystal was the clear winner that time. Still the clearest example is when Brooke won the makeover instead of Vanjie. That showed that they were pushing her to be the frontrunner.

The point of using the winner announcement for Season 12 here is to show that it was a super close race and that no one could say with 100% certainty who would win until Ru said Jaida's name. Yes Jaida had great moments throughout the season: look over there, that Prince lip sync 😍, and basically all her confessionals. But those moments didn't make me think "oh she's going to win this season now" in the same way as Sasha's rose petals, Sharon's bloody mouth, or the way Ru was looking at Tyra during the bridal runway.

Yes, that’s what I also thought! That political challenge was iconic for Jaida!

[@leah1697]

She had so many good moments and so many good looks.

[@RBenjo21]

Bianca was when she walked in, sorry, and Violet is when Ru went “Katya, I’m sorry my dear but you are up for elimination”.

[@ryujinsmochabread]

agreed 100%

[@ce_982]

i am THE biggest katya fan, but i dont think she wouldve won s7, even if she wasnt sent home SORRY!

[@unsonnopronfondo]

Violet is years ahead of Katya lmao Im also such a Katya fan but lets be for real here

[@hopobilbow1551]

Yeah Katya is e v e r y t h i n g but S7 was Violet's 💜

[@peewee139]

katya is my absolute FAV but she got too much in her own head and even admited it herself that she gave up around the hello kitty challenge. violet was strong throughout and had the best runways

For me it was when she came out in that dress for the finale, brook even said this is my favorite look sorry not sorry. I was like MY BABYYYY WONNNNN!!!

Nah Yvies moment was when she did that backwards crawl

Imagine being Naomi Smalls when you thought you eliminated your biggest threat but still you didn't win even though there were 2 winners 😭🤔

Naomi isn’t even an All Star, she is mediocre in everything other than the transforming challenges

I don't know why I'm so amused by Trixie's shocked reaction at 2:15 there is something about the slow little backup she does that cracks me up. It's almost like a little dance.

i just love how nobody knew who would win in the season 9 finale, but sasha came out with the petals omg

[@idas7827]

Whenever I rewatch AS2, I always feel Alaska won the moment she goes "All right all stars let's get all started okurrr" and fake death drops to the floor in that plastic bag dress, and then wins the reading challenge.

[@EvenstarSK]

Honestly, the moment they did that to Manilla RPDR died for me. Now I'm watching forever bitter that the format allowed her to go in such a way.

[@annabv55]

People always say “it’s just a competition” but these queens put so much time, effort, hope and especially MONEY into this. Manila would be such a good and deserving all star winner. The moment Naomi pulled that lip sync made me want to puke.

[@maraleebell]

Completely. I stopped watching for 2 years afterwards because it just nauseated me to think of how Manila was discarded so brutally. and the remaining queens kiki’d about it… except Trinity, who seemed to be the only one who actually wanted to see the best in the top.

[@kusaiashionamete220]

Because Naomi is *all legs ZERO actual talent* how else could she possibly get to the top unless Trinity and Monet Bendela'd themselves 😂

[@egg_2705]

@@kusaiashionamete220 I mean Monet also picked Manila to go home so, yeah. Imagine making the best of a reward you earned 😬

@@egg_2705 Monet defended Todrick Halls disgusting past actions on that crappy Reality TV show he's doing, so I have zero expectations from her (I'm kinda disappointed Bob joined in on the Todrick bootlicking though cuz Bob's actually talented)
