Post by bunniefuu »

- Previously

on RuPaul's Drag Race...

- Tired-ass showgirl.

- At least I am a showgirl,

bitch.

Go back to Party City

where you belong.

- I thought this evening

was kind of thrilling.

- Milan's not exciting enough.

I didn't really care.

- Get those nuts away

from my face!

- Cut, print, Emmy.

- Latrice Royale,

condragulations.

- Ah.

- The color green

reminds me of fungus.

- Milan, shantay, you stay.

Madame LaQueer, sashay away.

And tonight...

Cock-a-doodle-Ru!

[chicken clucks]

- The queens lay an egg.

And you'll be seeing double.

- [laughs]

- That is not what I want to see

in my drag queen.

- With extra-special

guest judges

Ross Mathews

and Loretta Devine.

The winner

of RuPaul's Drag Race

will receive a lifetime supply

of NYX Cosmetics,

a one-of-a-kind trip courtesy

of ALandCHUCK.travel,

headline Logo's Drag Race tour

featuring Absolut Vodka...

cocktails perfected...

and a cash prize of $100,000.

And may the best woman win.

- I get Madame's hangers.

- Oh, jeez, I get the heads.

- Madame LaQueer is gone.

The room's starting to feel

a little bit empty.

"Chad, Sharon, Milan, Dita

equal true friends."

- Oh, my God.

Wait, we're not true friends.

I don't care.

She was a mess.

Sorry about it.

- What'd it feel like to be

in the bottom two?

- I felt my freakin' age.

Thank God I survived.

I don't want to be judged

because of it.

- Bye, Madame.

all: Bye.

- It's a new day.

- You swept it all up yesterday.

- Yes, you did.

- You swept it all up.

- So now that I have this win

under my belt,

I feel like I'm finally

in the game.

America's next drag superstar

will be a big bitch.

- Well, now Kenya is the only

Puerto Rican here.

- I really thought it was gonna

be me and you at the bottom.

- Yeah, maybe I go

to the bottom too,

but my runway goes good.

I don't scare.

Mama, it's not what you say.

It's what you do.

Rawr!

[alarm sounds]

- Yeah.

- You've got shemail.

Are you a high roller

or a Hollywood square?

Because I got a secret.

If you press your luck,

you could be queen for a day.

But if you continue to wipe out

the competition,

honey, you could be going home

with all the tic-tac-dough.

Survey says, the joker's wild.

[laughter]

[cheers and applause]

Hello, hello, hello.

[cheers and applause]

For today's mini challenge,

you'll be pitted

against each other

in a series of grueling

physical stunts

for the brand-new game show

we call b*at the Cock.

- Cock-a-doodle-doo.

- Now, we'll play three rounds

with three contestants each.

The winner of each round

will go beak-to-beak

in a "cocktacular" finale.

And the one b*at the Cock

champion

will win a phone call home.

- Oh.

- Tomorrow is my eighth

anniversary with my partner,

Adam, and that would mean

the world to me

to be able to call him

and tell him I love him.

- Now, this first round

is Cock-A-Doodle-Ru.

First up, Phi Phi O'Hara.

All right, now,

the object of this game

is to pin these chickens

on my face.

Whoever gets the rooster beak

closest to my mouth wins.

Ready. Set. Cock-a-doodle-Ru.

- Oh, sh*t, okay.

- That's more of an earring.

- Pfft!

- Next up, Sharon Needles.

Cock-a-doodle-Ru.

- [laughs]

- Yes!

[laughter]

Contact.

- I'm sorry.

- Next up, Jiggly Caliente.

- Oh.

- Damn, I got it in my hair.

- That means Phi Phi O'Hara

is our winner.

All right, round two, kids.

The object of the game

is to get a single feather

across the finish line.

You can only use your breath.

If the feather hits the ground,

you need to go back

and start all over again.

On your mark. Get set. Blow.

- Go, Dida. Blow!

- Oh, oh, one down.

Starting over again.

- What the f*ck?

It's really hard.

- Yes, Dida!

[all cheering]

- [laughs]

- Dida Ritz is our winner.

Round three, Choke the Rooster.

[chicken clucks]

Now, ladies, the object

of the game

is to get as many rings

around that cock.

On your mark. Get set.

Choke the rooster.

Aim for the head.

- Oh!

- Wow, Milan.

- Milan is our winner.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Now, for the final

championship round,

Phi Phi O'Hara, Dida Ritz,

Milan,

you've got to lay an egg.

Now, the object of the game

is to carry these raw eggs

through these wig heads and lay

them safely in your basket.

And you need to carry these eggs

between me down there.

On your mark. Get set.

Lay an egg.

Now, the first queen

to lay three eggs wins.

Tossed salad

and scrambled eggs.

Ooh.

- Damn!

- Egg drop soup, anyone?

[all cheering]

- I keep dropping my damn eggs.

I'm not happy about this.

[laughter]

- Oh!

[all cheering]

- Phi Phi has laid two eggs.

- Oh!

- Get it, Phi Phi.

- Phi Phi is one egg away.

Phi Phi has laid her third egg.

Our winner is Phi Phi.

[chicken clucks]

You'll get your chance

to make a phone call home

a little bit later.

- Yeah.

- Ladies, for this week's

main challenge,

the password is...

Snatch Game.

[cheers and applause]

- Well...

[all cheering]

- Now, this is your chance

to show off

your best celebrity

impersonation

and channel someone else's

charisma,

uniqueness, nerve, and talent

for a change.

- One word, living legend...

[imitating Cher]

Get into it, babe.

- I expect to be blinded

by stars.

Gentlemen,

start your impressions,

and may the best woman win.

- So what's everybody doing?

- I'm doing Wendy Williams.

- Diana Ross.

- How you doing?

- Yes.

- I'm doing Gaga.

- What about you, Kenya?

- Beyoncé.

- No, I'm...no.

I don't know

what she's thinking.

I love Beyoncé,

but she's not funny.

I'm scared for her.

- Well, may the best woman win.

- I really want you to have

my phone call.

- Are you sure you want

to do that?

Because I feel funny about it,

Phi Phi.

- Honestly, I really wanted

to win it for you.

- Honey, thank you so much.

- Yeah.

- I'm really excited

that Phi Phi's gonna give me

her phone call.

It was really unexpected,

and it was really sweet.

I owe you a big one, girl.

- No, you don't.

- Yeah, I do.

- You're my sister.

- See, you're not

a complete bitch.

[laughter]

- Who are you doing?

- Well, I'm doing, uh,

Michelle Visage.

[laughs]

Vintage Cache!

[laughs]

I thought it would be memorable

poking fun at one

of the judges.

I think a lot of the girls

wouldn't go there.

When in doubt, freak 'em out.

Too much?

Miss Michaels,

is it too much for her?

- Oh!

- [laughs]

- Sharon is doing

Michelle Visage,

which, I mean, that's not

a smart idea at all.

- Hilarious.

- Now finally the judges

are gonna see

that she clearly has no talent.

Sharon should just pack up

and go home.

Bye.

- Don't push it too far

where you're gonna insult them.

Girl, she's gonna see this.

- Let her.

- Who are you doing?

- I'm gonna do Diana Ross.

- You are?

- Yeah.

I mean, I'm used to doing,

like, Donna Summer

and Kelly Rowland and...

you know, and those people

aren't like, "Ah!"

You know, so...

- Yeah, and we're left

with Miss Ross.

- Right.

[laughs]

This challenge

is really exciting for me

because my drag is sort of based

around characters

and impersonations.

My plan is to really have fun

with Diana today.

- Are you nervous this week that

you have to step up your game?

Like, the judges have their eye

on you?

- Maybe, but I choose Beyoncé

because it's more easy for me

doing that character

because I know it.

- You don't think, like, doing,

like, a Latin character

would work in your benefit?

- I can do Shakira,

but I don't like the character.

- I have the wig

if you want to do it.

- Yeah.

- I just hope that they get

funny from it.

- You know what I mean?

- Yeah, yeah.

- Kenya'd be my sister

in how close we are.

I am worried.

I wanted her to do something

with an accent

so that way,

it wouldn't be a handicap.

Beyoncé's not really funny,

you know.

She takes her career

really seriously.

So I don't know how Kenya's

gonna make it happen.

- Okay, we are what?

- Pretty sisters.

- Thank you.

- Well, Beyoncé and Gaga

should sit next to each other

on the...

- Yeah, I need to share it.

- Maybe I'll let you use

my telephone.

- Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

- I'm so excited.

- To think that, you know,

Cher's gonna see you doing this.

- I picked Cher because

it's what I'm most known for.

- You'll clock someone

doing Cher wrong.

They always do it too big.

- Show me one tape where Cher

went, "Oh!"

She never did that.

That's, like, a stupid thing

that people make up about Cher.

Cher's, like, much more subtle.

Cher's above it all,

you know what I mean?

- I love Chad to death,

but the bitch

likes to talk about Cher

way too much.

- Cher's got a great sense

of humor.

Cher doesn't give a sh*t.

Cher is a one-word diva.

- She's gonna drive me crazy.

- I know she's got a great

sense of humor.

- Well, don't you think

this is where

you're gonna run into a problem,

sweetie?

- With what?

- You're too afraid

to make fun of Cher.

- You know, the stakes for me

are very high.

People are expecting me to

bring a certain level of skill

to the table, and I don't want

to screw it up.

- Hello, hello, hello.

- Hi, Ru.

- Hello.

- Now, I've come to investigate

a case of identity theft.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Let's get to it.

Phi Phi O'Hara.

- Hi, Ru.

- I want to know who you're

doing in Snatch Game.

- Um, Gaga.

- Wow, that's a risky choice,

because you know in the past...

- It's been done.

- It's been done,

and the girl who did it

wasn't able to convey...

'cause what is her personality?

- Well, she's always about,

you know,

her fans and monsters

and paws up.

- I know, you're making it

sound very simple,

but I think it may be

a little more difficult

than what you're thinking.

- Well, I do Gaga a lot,

and I've been hired

all over United States

to impersonate her.

- All right.

- I've been recognized a lot

for my Lady Gaga.

So I think Ru is gonna love it

and eat it up.

- All right, get back to work.

- I surely will.

- All right.

Well, hello, Dida Ritz.

- How you doing?

- Oh, well, there you have it.

Do you know enough

about Wendy Williams?

- I do know some things

about her.

- She watches this show,

so you better be on point.

- I hope I am.

- Right, because she's got a few

trademark signature moves

that she does,

but then, inevitably, you have

to be quick on your toes.

- Yes.

- Have you ever heard her

radio show before the TV show?

- The one and only time I've

heard it is when she actually,

I guess, got into an argument

with Whitney.

- Well, let's...

give me a little sample.

I'll play Whitney.

- Okay.

- You play Wendy Williams.

- Okay.

- Uh, yeah, I heard you been

talking about me.

What's that all about?

- Well, first of all,

how are you doing?

- No, I'm doing fine, sister.

God is good.

God is good. God is good.

- God obviously isn't that good.

You've been getting

in a lot of trouble.

- Bobby Brown. Bobby Brown!

- Yeah, Bobby Brown's not gonna

help you right now, honey.

This is you.

How are you doing?

How you doing?

- I heard some Wendy in there.

- Yeah, so...

- That's very good.

- Thank you.

- Commit to the character.

I want to see it bam onstage,

okay?

- I'm gonna make sure I go

as far as possible.

- Good.

All right, get back to work.

- Thank you, Ru.

- Thanks.

Latrice Royale.

Who are you playing?

- Aretha Franklin, baby.

- Oh, of course.

Wow.

How are you gonna make her

come to life as a personality?

- Well, you know she's a diva.

I just kind of play off of

what she's done and...

- Yeah, you have to convey

Aretha Franklin

in, really, a few seconds.

- Right.

- And I'm not clear

on how you're gonna do that yet.

- Aretha is not really known

for catchphrases

and being funny and a comedian,

but she's had

some funny moments.

I'm pretty confident

that I can do this one.

I got this.

- All right.

Well, let's hope

that the risk pays off.

Good luck.

Get back to it.

- Thank you.

- All right.

Little Kenya Michaels.

- Hola.

- Who's your character?

- Beyoncé, the queen bee.

- I've heard of her.

- I'm trying to do

a sick Beyoncé

that have involuntary movements

that is crazy.

- I see.

It's a risk

because of the accent,

and, you know, if you were gonna

do a Latin star,

you would have a little bit

of an advantage.

- Beyoncé is a girl

that is very sexy girl.

- Yeah.

[both laugh]

I feel good in this.

- You're gonna do Beyoncé,

and you're taking a risk.

I hope it pays off for you.

- I'm gonna work it out.

- All right, get back to work.

- Thank you.

- Thanks.

Hey, Willam.

- Hi.

- Who do we have here?

- Jessica Simpson.

- How do you play

Jessica Simpson?

- Jessica doesn't understand

jokes much.

She says stupid stuff,

but she just does it

because she doesn't know better.

- I see.

Are you a fan of hers?

- Who?

- [laughs]

All right, Willam, I'm gonna let

you get back to Jessica Simpson.

I cannot wait.

- Thanks, she's sleeping.

- Oh, she's asleep.

Okay, well, let's let her sleep.

Get back to work.

- Bye. Thank you.

- Milan.

- Hello, Ru, how are you?

- Hi, honey.

Ooh, big hair.

Is it Chaka Khan?

- It's gonna be Diana Ross.

- Oh, my goodness.

You know, last week, you found

yourself in the bottom two

as an actor portraying

a character.

How will you convey

your character this week?

How will you sell Diana?

- Well, I think, um, I was

taking it too small, you know,

and I need to just...

it's better to tell someone

to pull you back,

and hopefully I won't go so far

that it's like a true

caricature.

- And you got to make her funny,

'cause Snatch Game is about

spontaneity and humor.

- Okay.

- All right, Milan, get to it.

- Thank you.

- All right.

Chad Michaels.

- Hey, RuPaul.

- Now, who on Earth could you

possibly be playing?

- My main lady, Cher.

- Cher.

- Yes, sir.

- Wow.

- Honestly, Ru,

everything in my life

has been because of Cher...

I mean, all the places

I've gotten to go,

the people I've gotten to meet,

the clothes on my back,

and I'm really looking forward

to doing her the justice

that she has done for my life.

I basically just owe her

everything.

So it's really important to me

not to offend her.

- [imitating Cher]

All right, I'll see you later.

- All right, babe.

- Oh, my God.

- Thanks, Ru.

- Sharon Needles.

- Hello, Ru.

- Who are you portraying?

- I'm not sure

if you know her at all,

but I'm doing, um,

Michelle Visage today.

- Oh, well, you know

you're supposed

to be portraying a woman.

- Oh, yes, I know.

This is gonna be

a little difficult for me,

but, uh...

- We say that with love,

of course.

- Yes, of course.

- What mannerisms of hers

are you gonna...

- I'm just gonna bring

a lot of harsh vocals

with a Jersey sense,

a lot of cackling.

[laughs]

This is where I completely

disagree with Santino.

- She's a fierce queen.

And it's quite a risk,

'cause she's gonna either

love it or read you for it.

- Right, right, right.

I'm feeling

a little bit nervous,

but I think I'll do her justice.

- All right, Sharon Needles,

get back to it.

- Thank you.

- All right, ladies, listen up.

At today's taping, you'll be

playing the Snatch Game

with our extra-special

guest judges,

late-night hot potato

Ross Mathews...

- Yay!

- Yes!

- And legendary actress

of stage and screen

and original dreamgirl

Miss Loretta Devine.

[cheering and gasping]

- Wow.

Loretta is the sh*t.

She not only acts well.

She sings well.

She's the real deal.

- So don't f*ck it up.

Welcome to the new Snatch Game.

[cheers and applause]

Hello, I'm your host, RuPaul.

Now let's meet our contestants.

This intern has climbed his way

up the Hollywood ladder.

Please welcome funnyman

Ross Mathews.

I'm so happy you're here.

- Oh, please, I'm thrilled.

- Up next, please welcome

the multitalented...

Loretta Devine is here.

- Hi, Ru.

- Hey, Loretta.

You are a national treasure,

my dear.

- Oh, that's so sweet.

- And now let's give

a Hollywood hello

to our star-studded panel.

Now from the best show

on television,

welcome my squirrel friend...

Michelle Visage is here.

Hey.

- I might not be

the biggest star here,

but I got the biggest knockers,

okay?

[laughs]

- Up next, a great idol of mine,

the one and only Diana Ross.

- Yes, Ru, mwah, mwah.

I love you.

But call me "Miss Ross."

- Milan's makeup looks crazy.

I've never seen Diana Ross

look like she's cracked out.

- Next to her is singer,

actress, shoe designer,

entrepreneur Jessica Simpson.

- You won.

- Oh, she's got a piece

of her product hair there.

- It's synthetic.

You can use it to Swiffer

and everything.

- Oh, okay.

Very good pitch there.

Very good pitch.

- You're welcome.

- You're welcome.

- [laughs]

- Let's give some R-E-S-P-E-C-T

to the queen of soul,

Miss Aretha Franklin.

- So glad to be here, Ru.

- What is that you're eating

over there?

- Something that really

satisfies me.

- Oh, okay.

Did you bring enough for

everyone to share, Re-Re?

- Oh, no, baby, I don't share.

- Oh, she don't share.

All right, all right.

Straight from the Jersey Shore,

Snooki is here.

- Hi, Ru.

Ross, are you a juicehead?

- I could try it.

- Oh, my God, I want to smoosh.

- Okay!

- Next to her, the one and only,

the mother of all monsters,

Lady Gaga is here.

- Work it, girl!

Give a twirl!

Give a twirl, give a twirl,

give a twirl!

- Next to her,

the queen of all media,

Wendy Williams is here.

- How you doing?

- How you doing?

- How you doing?

It's nice to see you again.

- We've got 16-time

Grammy winner, hey, Beyoncé!

- Whoo!

- She's had a top ten hit

in every decade since the '60s.

She's done it all.

The original dark lady,

Cher is here.

- I've been there, done that.

I spread La Mer on my toast

in the morning.

All right, you know,

I'm Cher, bitch!

[laughter]

Ooh.

- Yes, you are.

- I don't care.

Ross, Loretta, I ask a series

of questions.

Our celebrities will fill in

the blanks.

You come up with an answer

that you think

will match our celebrities.

First question

is for Loretta Devine.

Ugly Edna is so ugly,

when she goes

to the beauty parlor,

they b*at her face with blank.

- A picture of herself.

- Let's see if we can get

a match.

Michelle Visage.

- All right, Ru, I said

a baseball bat.

Remember, it was '87, we used to

take the J train into Manhattan,

and you used to carry

a baseball bat

before we would work

Susanne Bartsch's party.

We'd make a buffalo nickel

for it,

and it was all we used

for protection.

- No match, Michelle,

but a very good effort.

Thank you very much.

All right, Wendy Williams.

- How you doing?

- Ugly Edna, b*at her

in the face with?

- I love Cher, and I'm gonna say

with Cher's plastic surgeon,

'cause look at Cher.

- Allegedly.

Allegedly.

- She looks good, I mean...

- Cher, I love the hair change.

- Thank you, I can't go five

minutes without switching a wig.

I love 'em. I love 'em.

- Sasha Fierce.

- I want to take a sleepy

right now.

- Oh, oh, oh, oh!

- How's she doing?

[laughter]

- I'm a survivor!

I'm a survivor!

- She's a survivor.

- Kenya is taking it

to the extreme.

- Oh, girl.

- So I need to step up my game.

It's just I don't want to be

flatlining.

- Ross Mathews, you are next.

The real housewives are so fake,

when they make whoopee,

their blanks don't move.

- Their Goldbergs don't move.

- Very funny.

All right, let's go to Snooki

from the Jersey Shore.

- Just like my friend JWOWW,

her tits don't move.

- Her tits don't move.

Beyoncé?

- Wake up.

- Oh, is Beyoncé asleep?

Beyoncé, were you sleeping?

- It's the medication.

- That's no excuse.

You should have seen

what me and Ru were on

at the Limelight.

It's all behind us now.

We were on uppers, downers,

and candy corn.

- [laughs]

All right, Cher, I see

you're wearing your Academy...

well, actually, you did not win

the Academy Award that year.

- I didn't, but I'm wearing

the sh*t out of this headpiece.

I paid a lot for it, so...

- Yes, you did. Yes, you did.

- Those girls are real sleazy.

Their scabies, crabs, and fleas

don't move.

- I'm afraid that's not

a Goldberg, Ross.

- No.

- Loretta Devine,

Fatty Patty is so fat,

when she gets on the scales,

it says blank.

- Ouch, ouch.

- Ouch!

Good answer!

What'd you say, Michelle?

We have a match?

- I said, "Hello,

Madame LaQueer."

- [laughs]

I told her not to wear green.

I hate it!

- Diana Ross, the boss.

- When she got on that scale...

- Yes.

- It said mahogany.

- Ooh.

- The men love me.

The women love me.

They all love me.

- This was a real heavy

Diana Ross.

This is like Diana Ross

about 4:30 in the morning

after a couple packs

of cigarettes.

- Unfortunately that is not

a match.

All right, Jessica Simpson.

Fatty Patty's so fat, when she

gets on the scale, it says...

- Oh!

- [laughs]

- Oh.

- These young people, see,

they don't have no respect.

- No respect.

- No respect!

- This next one is for Ross.

Dumb Dee Dee is so dumb,

she thinks the C word

is short for blank.

- She thinks the C word is

short for Kardashian with a C.

That's how dumb she is.

- That's how dumb she is.

- Stop!

- Let's go to Lady Gaga.

Lady Gaga, she thinks the C word

is short for?

- The crown.

The new diva crown.

Just so you know, the diva here,

not her, not her.

- Uh-huh.

- But now I have the diva crown

'cause I bought it from her.

- I just want to say

to Lady Gaga

that I am the only boss here.

- I don't even need to fight

my own battles

when I have my own monsters

to take care of it for me.

Rawr.

- All right, let's move on

to Miss Aretha Franklin.

- Snooki want smoosh, smoosh!

Snooki want smoosh,

smoosh!

Snooki want smoosh, smoosh!

- Oh, how's she doing? Oh!

- Uh-oh.

- Oh, my goodness.

- The level of

unprofessionalism, far too much.

- [imitates flatulence]

- What did you just do?

Did you just...

- You nasty bitch.

- One more time.

- This is disgraceful.

- All right, Beyoncé,

calm your ass down.

- This is worse than when I had

Omarosa on my show.

Get off me!

- Stars, listen up.

Shy Sheila is so shy.

- How shy is she?

- She's afraid to blank

in public.

- Oh.

- Yes, write it...write it down.

Loretta Devine?

- She's afraid to swallow.

- Swallow in public.

- Yes.

- 'Cause she's shy.

- Shy.

- I have a very shy gag reflex

myself.

[laughter]

Aretha Franklin,

you still down there?

- Mm-hmm.

- Uh-huh, your blood sugar's

going down?

- I don't got any more food.

- You don't have any more food.

- No more snacks.

I can't be bothered.

I am completely over the fuckery

that was going on

in Snatch Game.

- Cher.

- Yes, Ru?

- We're looking for swallow.

- Shy Sheila is so shy

that she's afraid to...

I don't give a rat's ass

because this game

is boring the sh*t out of me.

I don't know why they book me

on these chicken sh*t gigs.

[laughter]

I'm a f*cking Oscar winner.

- Yes, you are.

Yes, you are.

Unfortunately, we've run

out of time.

Now, on behalf of all

our stars,

don't forget to spay and neuter

your neighbor's pets.

Thanks for joining us

on the Snatch Game.

See you next time.

Bye.

- There is such a thing

as going too far,

and it's unfortunate.

- I'ma gonna win!

I'm gonna win.

- You're not getting sh*t.

- Miss Cheesecake.

- This morning, I'm still

feeling very emotional,

very heavyhearted, angry,

disappointed.

I've never been so embarrassed.

The Snatch Game was horrible.

I felt like it was

a three-ring circus,

romper room bullshit going on.

- So what happened yesterday

at Snatch Game, girls?

- Yeah, what the hell

did happen?

It got a little crazy.

- I thought that Snatch Game

was the most romper room fuckery

that I've ever experienced

in my life.

I could not believe

the shenanigans

that was going on

in the front row.

Completely unprofessional.

Completely childish.

And that is not what I came here

to do.

- I don't know where

my character went.

It started off right,

and I don't know what happened.

Did I make a mistake?

Yes.

- Well, it wasn't just you.

Even though Jiggly apologized,

I don't even think she was

the worst of the bunch.

- We know that nobody did

anything out of malice,

but everybody

wants the spotlight.

Some of the younger people,

I think,

should have been a little more

sportsmanlike about it.

- I just want to bitch slap her

because she doesn't know

what she's talking about.

I mean, at her age,

she shouldn't be such a bitch.

- Well, I think overall we

realize that today is a new day.

Bring your best; deliver what's

needed for this competition.

- Bring our breasts?

- Yeah, bring your breasts.

- Okay.

- [laughs]

- All right, you guys,

I'm gonna go call Adam.

[dialing, line rings]

Hi.

- Hi.

Oh, baby.

- Happy anniversary, baby.

I love you.

- Happy anniversary.

I'm so proud of you.

- Thank you.

It's just, I feel like I've been

gone forever.

Oh, my God, I miss you so much.

- I miss you too, baby.

- I'm gonna wear the giraffe

bodysuit that you made today.

- Fun.

- Being able to talk to Adam,

just knowing that he's still

there thinking about me

and rooting for me,

it was good for my soul.

- I like my Gaga, so that's

all that matters.

I guess because I saw

how some people

were going over-the-top...

- Yeah, yeah, I know.

- That I was nervous.

Like, okay, well,

am I not giving enough?

- Yeah, yeah, I know.

- I'm really concerned

about my position here

because I've been consistent

throughout

this entire competition so far.

- This is a problem, girl.

I don't want to go home.

- I don't want you to go home.

- But I'm gonna put that little

wig in my hair today

and go amazing.

- That's all we can do.

- [laughs]

[applause]

Welcome to the main stage

of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Hey, guys.

- Hey, Ru.

- Hey!

- Will the real Michelle Visage

please stand up?

- Here I am.

- No, you're not the real one.

- I swear!

- [laughs]

Shake the dice and steal

the rice, Santino is here.

- Why so blue, Ru?

- Ross Mathews,

how are you tonight?

- I'm fantastic.

I love you in a feather.

- Oh, this old thing.

Loretta Devine.

You look like a million bucks.

- Thank you, Ru.

You look fabulous.

- Thank you.

This week, we challenged

our queens

to give us their best

celebrity impersonations.

Tonight, they've come to the

main stage dressed to impress.

Gentlemen, start your engines,

and may the best woman win.

First up, Jiggly Caliente.

Someone's getting lucky

at the prom.

- I am classing it up

in my blue gown.

I feel and look amazing.

- Breakfast at Jiggly's.

- Yes.

- From Jersey Shore

to Jersey housewife.

Chad Michaels.

- Rawr.

- How many giraffes had to die?

- Right?

- I'm giving you

some giraffe realness,

and I'm free to just stomp

the runway,

no strings attached.

- I love the peekaboos.

- The peekaboos are fabulous.

- Hello, they're saying hi.

- Milan.

Yes, I can, Janelle Monae.

- Or Bruno Mars on Red Bull.

- When I'm on the runway, I feel

like I'm on the tightrope.

And so I really wanted

to embody that essence,

and I wanted to have fun

with that.

- I hope Louis Farrakhan

don't see this.

[laughter]

Oh, Willam.

- Leather and lace.

- Damn, girl.

- My safe word is "yes, please."

[laughter]

- My outfit is very

hard-core '90s,

Grace Jones,

fetish blow-up doll.

- That's a Tarantino dream

right there.

- What are you gonna do,

arrest me for all this ass?

Phi Phi O'Hara.

- Is that a shoulder pad,

or is she just happy to see me?

- Darling, those are

$25,000 pyramids.

- This is my style.

This is my drag.

This is what I'm known for

and what I like to do.

- Assume the position,

Phi Phi O'Hara.

Dida Ritz, black Barbie doll.

- Somebody get a dollar.

She got stuck

in the claw machine.

- Uh-huh.

- I'm feeling like I am at

a Patricia Field show.

I'm giving you

my teddy bear skirt.

- No animals were harmed

in the making of Dida's skirt.

- No. Love a plushy.

- [laughs]

- Kenya Michaels.

Oh, the champion is here.

- Boricua!

- Puerto Rico!

- Oh!

- Boxing is one of the most

important sports

in Puerto Rico, and this

costume represents who I am.

- Float like a butterfly,

sting like a queen.

Sharon Needles.

After a little lunchtime

procedure.

- I'm obsessed with people who

have extreme plastic surgery,

and through the art of makeup,

I can temporarily be

that Janice Dickinson

or that Amanda Lepore.

- Yes, just a little bit more.

- Oh!

- Oh, oh, oh.

Now it's prefect.

- Just a little prick

in the mouth.

[laughter]

Oh, Latrice Royale.

- Oh, elegant.

- In royal blue,

and Royale is she ever.

- Yes, b*tches.

This is what she's serving,

honey.

This royal blue dress

makes me feel

the most beautiful

that I've ever felt, ever.

- I own everything.

- Fabulous.

- And those are my girls.

Welcome, ladies.

This week, you all snatched

our attention,

some for the better

and some for the worse.

When I call your name,

please step forward.

Jiggly Caliente.

Dida Ritz.

Latrice Royale.

You're safe.

You may leave the stage.

- [mouthing words]

- Now it's time

for the judges' critiques.

First up, Chad Michaels.

- Hi, Ru.

- The consistency

in your version of Cher

throughout the entire game

was just spot-on.

I was LOL'ing the whole time.

- I really responded

to this animal print.

Looks really futuristic,

looks really new.

- I especially love

the yellow hair.

I'm thinking about

getting me some.

[laughter]

- It's yours if you want it.

- Thank you, Chad.

Next up, Willam.

- Your Jessica Simpson...

so funny, so perfectly empty,

and you did it in a way

that I think

would make Jessica Simpson

laugh.

- If she could turn her TV on.

- [laughs]

- Willam, let me tell you

why I'm having a problem.

I feel like I don't

know you yet.

I love the way you get onstage.

I love the way

you hold your character.

Now I want to see

what else there is

besides this fierce-body bitch.

- I tend to think that emotions

are for ugly people.

- No!

No, we do have them,

but so can you.

- All right, next up,

Milan as Diana Ross.

- I had trouble with the makeup.

She looked a little cross-eyed

at times.

- You just didn't have

the Diana demeanor.

She floats,

you know what I mean?

She's like Febreze.

It's just better.

- You were like Chris Rock.

Like, how much it cost

for one rib?

- This ensemble tonight,

I like that you had

so much reverence

for Janelle Monae,

but I see you as a man.

The suit, the pants, even,

the saddle shoes...

it all reads as boy.

- Well, I mean,

this is what she wears,

and I really want to stay true

to Janelle's look.

- Bottom line, it's still

a drag queen competition,

and you're giving us drag king.

- Up next, Phi Phi O'Hara.

- The thing about Gaga...

and I'm a huge fan...

is, you picked someone

who's all visual,

and it kind of fizzled.

- I'm not a big fashion icon

or anything,

but the shorts seem like it

should have been cut up higher.

Yeah, like that more.

Those look like old

swimming trunks I used to wear.

[laughter]

- Sharon Needles, tell me about

your runway look tonight.

- You know, I have an obsession

with plastic surgery.

I love to look at people

that have it.

I mean, that's why Chad's, like,

one of my new best friends,

you know?

- Speaking of plastic surgery,

you chose to do Michelle Visage.

- What?

- Now, I'm very excited

to get to Michelle

to hear what she has to say.

- I'm not as old as you wanted

to make me, bitch.

- I have no idea.

- But with that said...

I thought it was brilliant.

Keep doing it.

- I just want to say, you know,

thank you all

and I love you all,

and I'm gonna tell you why.

[laughter]

- Kenya Michaels.

- Hi, Ru.

- I was very confused

with your Beyoncé.

It was really frantic.

The gyration movements

and the body snaps,

that and the medication,

it just didn't have anything

to do with Beyoncé.

- You're kind of a knockout

tonight

in a little sequin

boxer outfit,

but I worry you KO'd yourself

with your Beyoncé yesterday.

- Okay.

- Thank you, Kenya.

And thank you, ladies.

While you enjoy

an Absolut cocktail

in the Interior Illusions

Lounge,

the judges and I

will deliberate.

You may leave the stage.

All right, judges,

just between us "goils,"

what do you think?

Let's start with Chad Michaels.

- The planning, knowing

that she was gonna change wigs

and kind of give you

a new version of Cher

all equally funny.

- But I almost feel like

that was safe for Chad.

- It wasn't something safe

for Chad to do

because Chad really had

something to lose here.

You know, a lot of pressure

on Chad, and did he deliver?

Absolutely.

- Absolutely.

- I like what Sharon Needles

did more.

Now, yes, I know she played me,

but...

[laughter]

It's got nothing to do

with that.

She didn't think traditional.

She definitely was not

a suck-up.

She made me older and harsher...

and cheaper.

- Now that I've actually met

Michelle,

I think she could have had

more hair,

greater makeup,

I mean, bigger tits, even.

[laughter]

- Hey, let's talk about Willam.

- Willam's quite an actress.

Really committed to the

character of Jessica Simpson.

It was really funny.

- I always know

she's gonna throw back,

so that's exciting to watch.

But there's so much under there

that I don't even think Willam's

ready to let out.

I'm not gonna be able

to root for her

until she shows me that

a little bit.

- Right, that vulnerability.

Milan, I had a problem

with the suit.

If the suit were a woman's

suit, it would be different.

- I felt like I was watching

Sammy Davis Jr.

- Uh-oh.

- Okay.

- That is not what I want to see

in my drag queen.

- Oh, my goodness.

- Where did Kenya Michaels

go wrong?

- Well, first of all,

she made Beyoncé crazy.

- What was that Beyoncé?

- I know.

- It felt very uncomfortable.

- Maybe she just doesn't have

enough references

in her repertoire

to pull out something

that's believable and funny

and...

- That's what drag is about.

You have to have a knowledge

of pop culture.

All right, let's talk about

Phi Phi O'Hara.

She took some heat tonight

because of her runway look,

and also her Lady Gaga was

nothing to write home about.

- It just wasn't good.

- I like her, but she missed

the mark on all counts tonight.

- All right, silence.

Bring back my girls.

Welcome back, ladies.

I've made some decisions.

Chad Michaels...

- Yes, ma'am.

- This week,

you hit the jackpot, baby.

Condragulations, you are

the winner of this challenge.

[applause]

You've won a custom gown

from Marco Marco.

- Thank you all so much

for recognizing me.

It means the world to me.

- Thank you.

Willam, Sharon Needles,

you're safe.

- [sobs]

I've never had, like,

girlfriends.

I've never really been friends

with other drag queens.

I've always been an actor on TV.

I was on Boston Public with you.

And I'm getting to know these

girls, and they're awesome.

And it sucks to know

that one of them

is gonna have to go home

so I can win.

It's hard.

So yeah, that's it.

And I'm not acting.

Swear to God.

- All right, ladies,

the three of you

may join the other girls.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

- Kenya Michaels,

impersonating Beyoncé

is not your destiny, child.

I'm sorry, my dear,

but you are up for elimination.

- I feel bad

because I can't believe

that I go to the bottom two.

- Phi Phi O'Hara, your Lady Gaga

was on the edge of gory.

You're safe.

- [sobs]

- It's very important

for you to understand

we're looking for the top.

There's $100,000 at stake here.

The world is watching.

Bring your A game.

I'm telling you, Phi Phi,

you better come harder.

- I will.

- All right, you may join

the other girls.

Milan, my dear, I'm sorry,

but you are up for elimination.

- I was pissed.

It's the second time.

- Two queens stand before me.

Ladies, this is your last chance

to impress me

and save yourself

from elimination.

The time has come for you

to lip-sync for your life.

Good luck,

and don't f*ck it up.
