The funny thing is that I got spoiled for Dax Exclamation Point's elimination by the Huffinton Post's twitter mere seconds before I was going to watch this episode. (Have not learned the lesson of avoiding my twitter timeline BEFORE I watch RPDR).
Acid Betty's non-stop snapping definitely earned her a spot in the DNW column for me. I get that she didn't want to be eliminated but her pushy attitude drove me NUTS in all of her scenes. FWIW, she did turned out with the dancing (although her runway dress wasn't all that).
SO HAPPY for my queen Chi Chi's win! I do agree with Michelle's critique of her runway dress (it WAS basic). Bob the Drag Queen had all the catch phrases and did a good job overall.
In a surprising (to me) turn of events, I liked both Thorgy Thor and Cynthia this week. In the case of Cynthia, it helped that she turned down a little bit of the Coochi-Coochi tone so she came across as a real person. As for Thorgy, I feel she was sweeter this time around (and I loved her jumpsuit. Smart queen!)
NGL, I'm getting worried about Kim Chi. As sweet as it was to hear about her life (and, goodness gracious, the work room scene when they were all getting ready felt like CONFESSION TIME), she does have a horrible walk. Unlike Michelle, I don't think she's coasting on her makeup skills or style. It's more of her being terribly insecure and having an ongoing case of the nerves.
Derrick was...OK. To me, it seems like she's begun to realize that she REALLY has to step it up if she wants to stay in the game.
Laila had the really bad luck of not only turning a 'meh' look for the runway but also ending up in the bottom two for the second time in a row (though, overall, she wasn't terrible). As for Dax, she forgot that Mama Ru and co HATE excuses. Had she owned up instead of being defensive, she might've ended up safe.
That was a DISASTER OF A LIPSYNCH!! How can anyone mess up "I Will Survive"? I kept waiting for either or both of the queens to ramp up the energy. Instead, all we got was a lot of twirling all over the stage and Laila stomping up and down the runway while failing to deliver any emotion. Hell, I'd have eliminated both of them too for poor lipsynching! >:(
ETA: Apparently, Robbie Turner and Naomi Smalls didn't do anything that merited my remembering them. Sorry, queens. *hands*
