Also, the producers absolutely did know what DeLa was doing. There's actual footage of her painting the lipstick, and she talked in an interview on Look At Huh about how they were frantically whispering into their headpieces as she walked out

[@RowdyBoy82]

This is true, but just cause they saw it doesn't mean they knew what it possibly could have been, nor was it against the rules at the time, so why not let it play out for drama. It wasn't a driven, produced moment nor was it rigged. This was authentic reality TV and they producers were just there.

[@brooklynwilson643]

I mean you said it yourself. They were frantically whispering into their headpieces, clearly trying to figure out where to go from that UNPLANNED moment.

[@jillb3072]

On Johnny McGovern’s show “Hey Queen”/ “Look at Huh” Dela outright says the producers knew because they saw her looking for whiteout and then modified the lipstick. I know Dela only eliminated Morgan, but picking as many lipsticks she did, and possibly outing other contestants wore on her. I think she would rather eliminate herself than others. From what she said, she dreaded pulling lipsticks!

I have to agree with you at the end, Trixie wasn't set up to be the winner, but it's sad that they did so many twists that just didn't work. That's why they never did the jury thing again. It was a bad decision.

[@rikux27]

This season was absolutely NOT rigged for Trixie. She was basically never given an edge and only ever won when she actually did a good job. If you want to blame anyone for trixie's win, blame the jury. Putting kennedy in that top two guaranteed trixie's win in that finale - 100%.

How was Trixie NOT in the top for the talent show? If anything, she was looked over in some cases.

[@g.g.2102]

As soon as Trixie walked in this season I knew she’d win. Just like Bianca and Bob. It was absolutely rigged for trixie because she’s one of the most popular queens and if she was eliminated, people wouldn’t watch. Cmon people this is for tv and ratings. The producers know what they’re doing.

[@rikux27]

[@itsgabbybtch5587]

@@rikux27 She was doing average because she’s average at what the queens like her are amazing at. This season wasn’t like AS2, where there was only 1 queen who was extremely campy and good at acting all the time. This season had multiple options, production very much rigged the show in favor of someone like Trixie to win, the reason she didn’t get wins all the time is because she was outshined most of the time by Dela or Shangela. Both are better actors and comedians point blank period, that’s why Trixie only won 1 challenge that relied on acting/comedy, while Shangela won 3 of them. Dela won 3 of those too, which means that while Trixie was suppose to be favored on paper, she was put with people who were better at what she did. I personally think that the jury idea was last minute and a way to get Trixie to win if the other competitors did better. If I was a producer I would’ve put Dela and Shangie in later seasons and casted look queens in their place instead, if Trixie had to win. Naomi Smalls and Miss Fame could’ve replaced them, which would’ve maybe actually resulted in a Trixie win, it’d at least make her win look more fair in the grand scheme of things.

[@mareick6126]

AGREED. how in the world is it rigged if the OTHER QUEENS voted her for the top two?? i don’t get it. personal opinion: they were guiding it towards dela winning, then when she went home they had to scramble to find another queen to win and ended up bringing back the queens so the end choice wouldn’t be entirely their fault. trixie, yeah, is successful so it doesn’t surprise me that the queens would vote her. the jury is the only place of blame here for her “rigging”.

[@arsonvamp]

the jury twist genuinely would’ve been great if they told the queens at the start of the season. that way, it would build directly onto the voting twist of the previous season and would require more strategy. they would’ve had to have balanced having a good track record, getting rid of competition AND staying in everyone else’s good graces. mind games on top of mind games on top of the actual game. only revealing it at the end is not only unfair, but extremely anti climactic and half assed. i’d love to see this twist being implemented properly in the future, but it’s probably not going to happen because of how poorly it was received and executed the first time.

[@ThunderJams]

This season is so interesting to me because I feel like it starts so strong, and whilst I doubt it would match up to All Stars 2, would still have been revered as a great season... until Dela's self elimination. It manages to be both the best and the worst thing for the season; it's an incredible moment but everything fades out after it. If the acting challenge wasn't so terrible, and was pitched more of a "the main frontrunner is gone, it's anyone's game now!" type of deal, and if the jury twist wasn't so... completely counterintuitive to the semblance of a competition on Drag Race, then it could have been a really enjoyable season in it's own right. Now the starting episodes are fun but the season is spoiled by an ending like that, which manages to discredit the work of Trixie, Shangela and Kennedy. And the fact that All Stars 4 basically repeated the same mess with a slightly different flavour - ending with front runner elimination, mess of an acting challenge, mess of an ending... I feel like production could have done better in order to both have their cake and eat it to like they did with All Stars 2. And it makes me worried for All Stars 6 with the Game within a Game, I just... don't want them to mess up the season right at the end. I cannot have a 3rd All Stars suffer that fate! Also, I find it interesting people say the season is rigged for Trixie to win... when it was a lot more rigged for Shangela to win? Her Mariah part was definetly the winning part there, her being boosted above in Snatch Game, etc. I think Dela did far undeniably better than they were expecting - they wanted her to be a frontrunner and she ended up being the frontrunner to end all frontrunners. Those are just my messy thoughts. It's tough when a season like this is... probably in the top half of All Stars seasons.

[@leandromv170]

I think this season was rigged in Shangela and Bebe's favour. Shangela's one of Rupaul's all time favorites (I mean Shangie breathes and Rupaul liiiveeeesssssss), and Bebe is a winner, so she HAD to do well. It wasn't rigged for Trixie at all, otherwise she would have (and could have) had better placements. Aja and Thorgy are the true robbed queens and when it came to the jury twist, I always thought it was there just for the sake of drama, and it backfired. But hats off to you for seeing it was made so that Rupaul didn't have to eliminate a previous winner, that makes total sense! It's clear nor Rupaul neither Michelle are happy with the outcome of the season and in a way that makes me happy. For once they could not control everything. I personally thought Dela should have won, but after her, I'm absolutely fine with Trixie's win (who won the final lipsync, btw, and should have won against fat Shangela).

[@handsoaphandsoap]

“Which Kennedy clearly wins” I’m sorry but were we watching the same lip sync?

Just watched the entire season & I can honestly say that Kennedy really coasted all season. Her looks were just not as polished as the other qweens:(

[@sevenseven789]

For the divas live episode, we know from all stars 2 and this challenge that each queen is assigned a certain role. For instance with the herstory of the world rusical, Coco would've been Cleopatra, and Tatianna was meant to be Joan of Arc. So people like Katya and Phi Phi were set up to fail, and others like Alyssa were given the best role. Going back to AllStars 3, we could go off of this same logic, since Ru assigned the roles once again. If by some impossible chance if Shangela somehow went home last episode, nobody else would be assigned Mariah, they just compiled different audio tracks for the final product. Comparing Thorgy to Kennedy, Kennedy got a good character and good choreography, but she messed up the lip sync, which is on her part. Thorgy wasnt given good choreography or a good character for this type of challenge, but she didn't mess any of it up, she did the best with what she was unjustly given.

My major problem with this season is: Trixie doesn't stand out in ANY moment. I know her fans all live for everything she does, and it's absolutely cool getting to know more of her work now my grudge is gone and I opened up to see more of her work. But looking back, we have 3 (not one, not two, but THREE) front runners getting chopped so she could be crowned; and the fact she won the lipsync for the crown just because Kennedy was the Bottom Queen on AS3 also got me on my nerves back then. Name one huge iconic moment on Trixie's run on All Stars 3. Alaska as Mae West, Katya on Krisis Kontrol, Alyssa and Tatianna lipsynching the house down, Detox runways... Huge moments on the previous season. Next season we have Monét and Monique's fashion redemptions, Trinity on snatch game, Manila slaying the runway, Naomi lipsynching the house up. All Stars 5 we have an iconic top 3 owning the season on fashions, on acting and on comedy (one the best Snatch Games so far), and now All Stars 6 being equally iconic (until we found out what the freaking game within the game was). So AS3 we have great queens doing poorly, three front runners being chopped and overly produced moments to create the so called "great TV". It's a forgettable season, just like All Stars 1.

[@elizimmer3838]

It was actually rigged against Trixie. Trixie got some of the stupidest ass critiques I've ever heard. Dripping in flowers runway? TOO MANY FLOWERS. Girl group performances? Hair not nerdy. The big, insane, puffy hair, practically a pink version of book Hermione's...not nerdy? She also got shafted in the talent show. What BenDela did was funny, but it was NOT talent. That should have been Trixie and Thorgy lip syncing, the girl group should've been Ben vs Trixie. Shangela also skirted by with some ugly ass outfits this season. Overall, Trixie had the best looks (no bad ones. BenDela is behind her) and, if judged fairly, Trixie, Ben and Shangela all would have had the same bloody track record - which means Trixie is the fair winner.

[@theforgottencompanion]

I might be the only one thinking this, but I feel like Bebe was carried throughout AS3. there were so many moments when she could have, and should have, been in the bottom, but she just got to float on by as if she couldn't do anything wrong. She definitely wasn't carried to the extent that Kennedy was, nowhere close, but she should not have been in the top 4. In an ideal world the top 4 would have been Ben, Shangela, Trixie, and Aja, with Ben as the winner and Shangela as a close runner up. It was clear that everybody knew Shangela should have won the second Ben eliminated herself, but the other queens pity towards Kennedy ended up with them trying to give her a redemption in a setting where it just didn't make sense, instead of voting for the best contestant still standing. You could see it on Trixie's face the moment Kennedy was voted into the top 2 that she knew she wouldn't be in the top because Shangela deserved that spot. Kennedy should have never made it as far as she did, and Shangela should have won that crown. Kennedy truly was the Roxxxy of AS3, only difference between them being that Roxxxy was carried because of the sentimental past that was rolaskatox, while Kennedy was carried out of pity from the other queens.

[@choerryline]

I fully believe Bebe was told to throw the lipstick, and was promised a top 4 placement (not 2 because of the twist), and was let on to the jury twist before the rest of the queens. In the last episode when everyone finds out, the girls suggest it might be a jury, but Bebe is the only one who dismissed the idea (probably bc she knew but was told to not clue in the other girls)

Aja wasn't robbed. That can was *EASILY* the worst, even worse than Kennedy's, and her look was *fine*. She was definitely worthy of a bottom placement along with Shangela for her horrible dress, and Shangela was never getting sent home that week based on track record. Also the remaining queens' performance in the Kitty Girls challenge was much better than the eliminated queens imo, and I don't think at this stage of Drag Race anyone could be convinced to throw a lip sync just so someone can send themselves home, least of all Bebe. *P.S. I can't see how you think Kennedy won that final lip sync vs Trixie. All things aside, fandom, everything, basing it purely on the lip sync, Trixie won the moment she pulled her hair out and bought some comedy to one of the most dramatic songs there is. You can see in Ru's face that Trixie won in that moment.

I don’t really think trixie lost the last lip sync 😭, I feel like she better represented the song that Kennedy. Theirs a thing as doing to much in a lip sync and all the slips and cartwheels and slow splits was just a lot for a song that didn’t need it.

[@elsolinn617]

Let me just say something: If it's based on the whole season, YES. Shangela should have won. But, bitch, i fell like i'm the only person who sees how she was very favoured by producers. On Episode 2, she had literally the best character, anyone would win with Mariah. Then, on the Snatch Game they edited out a lot of Aja's jokes because they didn't want them to win. And on the Top5 episode she was playing herself. She's rlly funny, really talented. But America, Facts are Facts PS: I love a Gag, so Trixie winning was good to me, especially after seeing the amazing things she did with her carreer.

[@ait8551]

Litterally her Mariah was made to steal the show. Her Jennifer Lewis was just herself like when Alyssa on as2. Aja brought something fresh and new every week. Her Amy had 0 things by production but still turned and her snatch game was killer

[@benjamintic3653]

Yea. Fans say they rigged it for Trixie but it was litteraly rigged for everyone but Trixie, it was rigged for Shangela, DeLa and Bebe. Shagela and DeLa were given the best verses, Shangela got help by editing out Aja, then Kennedy got favoured by them putting Aja in the bottom on the ball, Bebe was favoued in the Drag up your life and botrh Trixie and Aja misstreated again, since let's be honest Trixie or Aja should've been in the top. So yea Trixie was actually more misstreated then favoured and litteraly everyone else in top 4 (+DeLa) got favoured.

I agree with your Tin Foil Hat moment; I always thought Bebe threw that lip sync on purpose. I believe the producers knew what was going on, so did Ru. And she totally had Trixie’s lipstick. And the producers didn’t want to lose their cash cow.

[@LukeOBrien92]

Bebe hadn't watched drag race since she won, and beat ongina by removing her wig, I really don't believe she threw just that she thought it'd be fierce

[@benjamintic3653]

Honestly Milk should've been in the bottom in the Rusican 100%. She didn't look like Celine, she didn't act like Celine and her cut didn't sound anything like Celine and her verse was bad. And honestly her look wasn't amazing so personaly she deserved to be in the bottom.

[@jillb3072]

All vocals were recorded by third parties, not the queens. They had no say over their parts or verse. Just like season 2’s. They just picked costumes, but obviously took a liberal licensing that it doesn’t look nearly as good then her look at the Met Gala in 2019, for drag she should’ve done her show girl look from 2017 met gala, it’s more drag, just my thoughts anyhoo!

[@lunameza5391]

I think so too

[@jillb3072]

Im Canadian, and go concerts all over N. America, I've seen Celine before Vegas residency in Montreal, Fleetwood Mac in Saskatoon (Stevie Nicks), Amy Winehouse in NYC, ans saw Dolly when I won tickets to the CMAs in Nashville all expenses paid. I agree with Todrick that Thorgy was a Stevie "purist", and if it was planned ahead of time, I would watch her performances (that's what Google and KZbin are for, just saying...) and she is a huge gay icon, a few of my homosexual friends (men & women) have every piece that any of the numbers that the members were in. I think Thorgy is a great drag queen, but she's neurotic AF and can be controling to the point she ends up pissing herself else and blames someone, at the begining she said she would've won if Bob wasn't there for season 8, then she starts passing the buck on her critiques, though she asked what she could do to improve, and said she would take those those critiques and apply them, but never did any of the work. This why the Hater's Roast was great for her.

[@adamtravis9380]

I don’t think Bebe got told to throw the lip sync. Had that been the case she wouldn’t have come on so strongly. I think she just literally didn’t watch drag race or barely watched it after she won and still thought that removing your wig was a sign of vulnerability and would help you win. Also Ru can pick whoever she wants as the winner regardless. Especially to a song like that.

[@moonstoneuniverse8516]

This season pisses me off because Aja could have won the whole thing. The only reason she was treated like this is because they didn’t expect her to have progressed this much from season 9 and there Bebe, Trixie, Shangie and Ben top four was in risk. *edit* I give full credit to U. the KZbinr which is their new drag channel name now.

[@ethanstyles9192]

Ngl, I wish that if they just did the jury twist: A) Tell the players B) Don't half ass it and just make the highest vote getter win. Like, Trixie just ended up being the middle who won because she was not the best anything, but it lined up in a way where she ended up winning. If they wanted to do normal crowning, crown Shangela or Bebe. If they wanted to do Jury, crown Kennedy for actually winning the Jury vote. To be fair, I actually do think it was a better thing for Kennedy that she didn't win though because everyone remembers her great moments like the Milk storyline, "Fuck my drag" especially, and her not knowing how to pronounce "meme".
