"Coco isn't known for her dancing" THE UTTER DISRESPECT OF IT ALL.

[@vanityplates3125]

That was beyond disrespectful. It's literally what she does.

[@cazzabojangles]

The level of disrespect towards the season five lipsync assasin. Also, Coco was set up to fail in All stars- she was due to lipsync to a Janet Jackson song but production "couldn't clear it" a couple of days before the performance. They brought her on because Alyssa was there and they wanted to push the storyline of them having a rivalry, and once they made it clear there wasn't one, they let her go.

[@htrabj]

I literally came to the comments to see who else made a "WTF" face at that comment. Yes, Coco's talent show performance was cringe-worthy, but that's partly because she IS such a fierce dancer that watching her do that weird cutesy dance was just weird. We knew she could do so much better... that's why it was cringe-worthy.

[@heymistercarter.]

@@cazzabojangles exactly. And it’s crazy they wouldn’t let her do that Janet routine, when I’m sure there are probably quite a few royalty-free soundalike tracks they could’ve allowed her to use. Given how influential of an artist Janet is, I’m sure those exist!

I didn’t think Ben Dela’s elimination was cringy . When she explained it it honestly made sense. She won so many challenges, ( won more money than the S1 Grand prize ) , she was already a winner 👏🏽.

[@julesgijs8682]

Vivacious entrance wasn't really awkward. First, it was iconic. Second, she did it on purpose because the producers told her that it would be funny. She shouldn't be on that list, maybe in the dishonorable mentions but not in top 20.

[@_peepee_]

producers did her so dirty for no reason. her performance as the head in the box wasnt great but they couldve at least done a second take or cut out the awkward pause like smh she was set up to fail. love her drag style. sad that shes made her whole brand about ornacia :/

[@DG_Toti]

@@_peepee_ hey, to be fair to her, Ornacia was an iconic idea and I don’t blame her for making it part of her brand now. At least that means that when anyone mentions Ornacia, we’ll likely think of Vivacious herself as well.

[@ElpSmith]

I think people now realize that Vivacious is iconic. Spoiler Alert: She made a cameo in season 15!

[@brunojanowskitrojan7822]

dela's self elimination is one of the best and most iconic moments in the show's history, pop off sis

[@Mylittleaddiction2802]

Made me like her even more

[@Shadywolf09]

Dela did that not just to leave because she didn't need the competition, but she got out of her contract by doing it. When the girls sign up for the show, they are bound by a self renewing contract that they cannot get out of. It is for life, so whenever Ru wants them, they have to abide. Doesn't matter what they're doing or where they are, they must come and perform for Ru whenever Ru wants. Doesn't matter if they don't want to, they contractually have to. Dela beat Rupaul at her own game, really. She is not bound by a contact any longer, so she's free to go and do whatever she wishes and Ru cannot stop her. Ru can't control her, and I think that's better than any money in the world: To have your freedom from a "slave" job where the person who owns you through a contract isn't getting rich off your work.

how was bendelacreme's self elimination cringeworthy? these moments need another name.

Blair St. Clair's stand up in All Stars 5.

Venus D-Lite's entire lipsync performance to The Right Stuff. Because not only is the desperation clear, the "violence" is uncomfortable, and probably worst of all is the fact she did all that in front of the song's singer herself, the indomitable ever-iconic goddess that is Vanessa Williams.

Farah Moan falls over in talent show should be here

[@labyrinthgirl17]

As a low key theatre rat (only did a couple plays in college lol), I knew MacBitch was doomed the second I saw it, because the second someone said, "Macbeth," the curse had already set into effect. There's a reason most in theatre are suspicious of the title of that play, and I'm just glad no one got seriously injured or died. xD

[@gurglequeen433]

Vivacious and Ornacia's entrance was iconic.

[@dickhanes7094]

Phi Phi calling people the help was spot on with her character

[@ChrisStargazer]

Wutdyamean? Shakesqueer (and the ensuing beard runway with Katya as Baberaham Lincoln and Ru telling an Asianesque-beard bedecked Kandy Ho “Fu ManChuuuu Betta Work!”) was iconic at the highest level possible! 😂

[@hermescoelhoneto]

Roxxxy’s verse is ICONIC! It’s so bad that it turned out to be great! Ms Mojo doesn’t get Drag Race, period!!!

[@iviebelle]

honestly no, no it’s not; hers was by far the worst, and she should’ve have even gotten that far; not when the other queens liked it, they make fun of it live💀

[@KristenDETW]

@@iviebelle to be fair, it wasn't Roxxxy's fault she went as far as she did. She even commented about it after a while if I remember correctly. The two things we can give her is her personality did a complete 180 and she looked AMAZING on the runway every time. That bell-bottoms and fro look is one of my favorite things ever.

[@TheAbigailDee]

Roxxxy's verse changed the game. Nobody else is here to make it clear or dares to ask where their people are at.

"NOT BENDELACHRIST"

[@vanityplates3125]

That sent me.

[@racaulk]

Alyssa Edwards' roast performance in season 5 was truly awful.

[@JulieDelahooke]

Unpopular opinion, but I don’t understand the Jasmine Masters hype. To me she doesn’t stand out other than blatantly ignoring the judges/competitors critiques. I knew her stand up would be a disaster when she said she wouldn’t do a script even though people were telling her

[@wrightyx9284]

I’m sorry but joslynn is a sweetie 😭🤚

[@thegracefulbrowngazelle6035]

But omg that interview was the worst thing I've seen on the show. 😬 I love Joslynn so much tho

[@tialawe1276]

I don’t understand how PhiPhi O’Hara‘s a cappella singing was not on this list.

[@vanessak69]

Plastique’s “conVERsion” segment not conversation, Coco does Janet Jackson in Vegas dancing isn’t new to her, talks about “Macbitch” and shows (admittedly funny) segment from Romy and Juliet, why is Dela cringe, etc, etc.

[@nocreativename]

No lie when you said “gagged” in the intro, I literally gagged.

[@nickfire2163]

Where is Crystal Method`s final lipsync with birds, spit etc I thought it was... well, cringy

[@animehawtie]

Derrick Barry’s only “talent” - And I use that term loosely, is impersonating others to the point I believe he doesn’t know who he is. Courtney act looked like Brittany - but knew who She was and had her own personality. An underrated great Queen. Ijs

[@samuelesocchi5060]

Maybe it’s because I’m from a different country, with a different culture and background, but I always I laugh a lot to Phi Phi’s joke.

[@taylorhaze8651]

Ya we will say that’s the reason why ….

[@moonbeaststudiosgaming]

What's funny is Vivaciouss explained that the studio TOLD her to flub it, they told her to act like she couldn't get out

[@LittleBlondPrincess5]

I do have to say, I’ve never disliked a guest on RPDR, but Cher’s mom was the most unlikeable person on the show ever

[@ruthjuliana9222]

i don't blame shannel, rupaul's show is very hard. willam talks about how challenging it is.

[@lovenimrod]

I can’t even finish watching it because it’s so cringy. Hahahaha

[@toriandtilly]

Listen Utica's routine as a whole was cringy but it doesn't matter b/c all anyone remembers to this day is the iconic part that was her asking Ru to stand up and the fact that yall didn't explain that that was because Ru always wears sweat pants behind the desk was criminal! Also... cyster soju and bendelachrist were iconic as well 😂

[@gerardgarcia8501]

The Talk between Adore and Michelle in AS2 should’ve been on The List(I don’t care if Michelle Wore Sunglasses when Talking to Adore, Her Tone and Voice when talking to Adore is so cringe, plus her saying that she never apologize to her daughters(while smiling since she was trying to “lighten up the mood”) made me cringe)

[@IAMASELENATOR92]

Coco Montrese IS known for her dance skills on the show.
