Drag Race season 17: Eliminated queen addresses shock exit
This first eliminated queen from RuPaul’s Drag Race season 17 has broken her silence. Spoilers ahead. On this week’s episode, RuPaul assigned the queens their first sewing challenge of the season. “Now, if you want to be America’s Next Drag Superstar, you need to play this game like you’re the number one boss lady of the boulevard,” Ru coyly explained. “For 90 years, Monolopy has brought people together to feel that rich bitch fantasy.
For this week’s maxi-challenge, you need to take fashion inspiration from this iconic board game and bring it to the runway.” While most of the queens were excited about creating their ‘Monopulence’ outfits, Lucky Starzzz struggled to bring her idea to life. “I’m used to working with unconventional materials – foam, paper, cardboard – none of that is here.
I just don’t use pretty fabrics,” she said in confessional. Despite Lexi Love, Hormona Lisa, and Arrietty giving Lucky some helpful tips for her outfit, the judges’ panel did not like the final product, resulting in her landing in the bottom.
Ultimately, Lucky was asked to sashay away after losing her lip sync to Joella and failing to pull the correct lever during the Badonka Dunk mini-game.
