Hey, kitty girls! It’s poll time!

Below the cut you will find a few polls based off of this week’s episode. They are spoilery, so enter at your own risk!


[Poll #2039213]

I didn't vote in the 'who should have sashayed away' section because it should have been Robbie Turner IMO.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

That's what the "All T. All shade." question is for. :P

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

Does anyone else think Acid Betty is a one trick pony? I'm not too fond of her personality either.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Style wise? Yeah, most likely. She has great style, but her personality really takes away from it. She doesn't have fun attitude like Adore or Bianca.

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

I guess i just didn't like how she used the same wig but in a different color for the challenge. I was really looking forward to seeing her in action but all the shade just killed her for me. Adore is a sweetheart! Bianca is amazing, i got to see her stand up when she came to town and it was flawless. She had some funny behind the scenes stories, but my favorite part was seeing just how much she loves Adore. It was too cute!

Betty`s neon tidal wave updo`s are clearly part of her signature look. I`ld much rather see that individual style than glorify the abilities of a copycat like Derrick, who will just Britney-fy his way through.
Bianca served only slight variations on the same hairdo`s, dresses and make-up, but her attitude was deliciously snarky, where as Betty does just come off as arrogant.
Thorgy will probably be wearing similar hair for as long as she`s in the competition as she`s limited by what she can fit over her dreads.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

I don't mind that Betty used the same wig because it was styled differently each time. (I have the same hair everyday and have to find multiple styles for it, after all. ;) ) And I loved that she went partially bald for her entrance. I have a major soft spot for queens willing to go bald. (Hello Ongina, Nina and The Princess!)

As for Bianca... As much as I love her, and I really do, her lack of style variety bothered me. She was always on point, but fore the most part, it was the same shapes over and over. I always wanted to see a different shape gown or hair from her. The animal look and black and white ball gown look were so refreshing because they were so different from her normal style. For me, that was the only thing I didn't like about Bianca. Everything else was perfection. Especially her attitude. It worked because as hateful as she was, it was still fun and relatively harmless. She said everything with a twinkle in her eye and everyone got it. Betty doesn't have that and that's what put me off about her attitude. She was just harsh and... acidic. (I had to, sorry.)

Awwww, Thorgy. Did anyone else think of Cosima from Orphan Black when they saw her out of drag? That was all I could think of. Hopefully she can incorporate the dreads into her looks more so that she doesn't have to wear such bulky wigs all the time.

P.S. I would love to hear some of the Bianca and Adore stories, if you don't mind. :)

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

Oops. Just saw this comment! I'll tell you some stories when I get home in a few!

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

I pm'd you some stories form Bianca's Roladex of Hate show. If anyone else is interested feel free to pm me! :)

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Great! Thank you so much. :D

[entj.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much for mentioning Cosima! I was like, "Her hairs ... they remind me of someone ..." You just saved me. :)

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Haha, you're welcome! It was all I could think of whenever they showed Thorgy!

Thank you for calling them hairs, it made me think of Helena. :P

[entj.livejournal.com]

Thank you for catching that, 'cause I put it in just for you. :)

[blacktonguedevi.livejournal.com]

Bianca`s raccoon make-up doesn`t do it for me, but I live for her snark. I pay out horribly on my nearest and queerest and people either get it or they don`t. Maybe it`s more of an old school thing ?
You`re right about Betty`s attitude, she`s a bit full of herself and that isn`t exactly endearing, but Violet wasn`t very likeable and she got herself a crown.

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

Dont't remind me about season 7! lol. It was such a let down, no one deserved the crown imo. Yeah, maybe we'll see a better side of Acid Betty next time. She wasn't awful on Untucked, but i'm still not sure about her.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

It's the white liner under the eye that always drove me up a ball. Other than that, I like her makeup style. I don't think she's the best makeup artist the show has seen, but I like it.

I... don't know if it's an old school thing. I think it's more that people are so over-sensitive any more. If you say even the slightest thing wrong, people attack. I think Bianca is great because she just does not care about that. She doesn't go out of her way to be insulting, but still. So, I gues, in a way, that disregard for being 100% PC at all time is more old school. But I love it. I hate how everyone is so touchy anymore. Pretty soon the entire English language is going to be taboo.

I agree though, you're going to love that type of attitude, or you're going to hate it. I'm lucky to have have friends and family who recognize my snark for what it is. :P

Hopefully Betty will soften up as the competition goes on. (Oh, Violet... )

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

You make a great point, I'm a huge Bianca fan and that never bothered me. I may just be a little bitter about how much of a let down her personality was. Hmm, you're so right about thorgy!

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Bianca knows what works for her and that's what she did, to great effect. But the lack of variety did get tiring. I like to be surprised and to see what else the queens can do. It's like Derrick, I want to see something other than Britney now.

[blacktonguedevi.livejournal.com]

I loved Raja`s style, but didn`t care for her personality, I guess you can`t have everything :p

[lilpoundcake.livejournal.com]

sigh.. you're sight. haha. I love Raja's style but her personality is the reason why she's not one of my top queens.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Same here. Her attitude was so off putting. I couldn't connect to her at all. Haha, very true.

[entj.livejournal.com]

I'm not crazy about Betty's personality so far, either. I'll give her some time to hopefully show some range, but so far, I just find her unpleasant.

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

Same, which is disappointing because I love her style.

[entj.livejournal.com]

On the "Ahhh... memories. Which past winner did you enjoy seeing the most?" I tried to vote for Chad Michaels, but Chad wasn't listed. I assume this was an accidental oversight, rather than shade. :)


Thanks so much for including my options, though! Mwah! :)

[keeper-of-stars.livejournal.com]

...... oh no. Totally not shade. I ran through it in my mind and only thought of regular season winners. I totally forgot about All Stars. I'm sorry.

I hate when I think I've got a poll perfect, post it and then find mistakes. Like on the Acid Betty one. I was so proud of my Snatch Game reference and then I noticed that I left out a word. That still irritates me. Hmph.

You are most welcome! Kisses! :)
