Drag Race: The internet reacts to “painful” elimination
The latest exit from Drag Race season 16 has caused an uproar on social media. Spoilers ahead On this week’s episode of the long-running drag competition, the queens were tasked with showcasing their sketch comedy skills on RPDR Live!
Like past seasons, the distribution of parts resulted in several arguments among the queens – with Plane Jane and Morphine Love Dion getting into it and Dawn and Plasma having a tense exchange.
While most of the queens ended up with their desired roles, Mirage struggled to embrace her RPDR Live! hosting duties – which stemmed from Sapphira Cristal willfully giving up the part. “It’s making me second guess if I want it because now I think she’s playing the game,” Mirage explained in a confessional.
After getting some pointers from RuPaul and rotating Drag Race judge Ross Matthews, the queens headed to the main stage to deliver their best sketch comedy performances and Night of 1000 Chers ensembles.
