You'll be starring in the reboot
of "The Daytona Wind."
Aura Mayari...
Is it true that Big Daddy
d*ed on top of you?
You didn't pop for me.
- Jax.
- Party.
You had no point of view.
Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
And I'd love
to write back again.
Here's your one chance,
and you did not let us down.
Condragulations,
you're the winner
of this week's challenge.
Jax, shantay, you stay.
- [sighs]
- Aura,
sashay away.
My dead dad will haunt you all.
- Ah...
- Oh, my God.
[dramatic music]
[sighs]
- Ooh.
- We're down to ten.
I just sent Aura home,
and she cursed us.
[chuckles]
I am a little terrified,
because she did unleash
the hex of her dead father
upon us all.
Bob walked onto her
first runway purse first,
and Aura left
that runway cursed first.
That's my second lip sync.
So I sent two home.
Lip-synching for my life,
the second week in a row,
I'm really thankful
that I showed the girls
that it's gonna take
a lot to send me home,
but also, I don't wanna be
in the bottom anymore.
Congratulations, Mistress!
[all cheering]
Thank you.
You know, got a couple coins
in my purse,
and I'm about to act brand-new.
[laughter]
I end up safe this week,
which really burns
my marshmallow,
to be honest with you.
I'm f*cking pissed.
Okay.
I'm very, very upset
that I was not in the top.
I'm surprised
and, um, annoyed.
I think that I did
extremely well
in this challenge,
and I think that I carried
a lot of the scenes
that I was in.
Loosey, if you think
you're perfection,
there might be a case
of drag delusion, girl.
Well, girls, I have
an announcement to make.
It's been giving safe spice,
but I'm officially
entering my top era.
I am going to trot
my way up to the top.
Didn't they tell you
to stop doing that?
Baby, they said
to stop doing that.
The CDC should really look
into making
a drag delusion vaccine,
because I think that at
this point in the competition,
the drag delusion
might be contagious.
Loosey, call Ru up.
Tell her how you feel.
I'm about to...
[laughter]
[singing] RuPaul Drag Race

[singing] RuPaul Drag Race
May the best drag queen win
[singing] Best drag queen win
Ra-sa-sha-sha-sha.
All right, girls.
It's a new day in the workroom,
and I am happy to enter
my top era.
I am being a full-on top.
Like, Spice-dom-top era
entering right now.
How's everybody feeling?
Who is, like, so pissed
that they haven't won
a challenge yet?
Me!
I'm over it.
Are you just as pissed
as Loosey was
when she wasn't
in the top last week?
- [laughter]
- Oh, girl, I love you.
I know you're my sister,
but when you were
on that couch, just
complaining about being safe,
I was just like, "Shut up."
[laughter]
I had one moment
of being a little upset,
- and I don't understand why...
- No, I don't think you were
a little upset.
You said... and I quote...
"I am f*cking angry."
[laughter]
I know for a fact that
that bitch was pissed.
You have every right to be mad,
but, girl, own it.
Feel how you feel, baby.
Let it out.
Hello, hello, hello!
[all scream]
[laughs]
You better work, bitch.
Ladykids, we are
halfway through the season,
and I still haven't seen some
of you lip-synch for your life.
That is all about to change.
For this week's Maxi Challenge,
we're putting your charisma,
uniqueness, nerve, and talent
to the ultimate test
in a good old-fashioned
lip-sync LaLaPaRuZa.
[all scream]
LaLaPaRuZa is like...
You remember WWE,
like a "SmackDown"?
It's that
with lip-synching drag queens.
We battling each other...
One goes down, one goes up.
One goes down.
One goes up.
Who's left?
Who got the belt?
Get into lip-sync assassin drag,
and then, I'll meet you
out on the main stage.
Remember ladies, tonight,
one of you
will be going home.
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best drag queen win.
- All right, ladies.
- Oh, whoo!
I feel like everyone
is equal part excited
and ready to k*ll it,
but also nervous and ready
to sh*t their pants.
I'm gonna LaLa
that f*cking PaRUza.
I did not expect, when I came
in here this morning,
for us to be LaLaPaRuZa-ing.
Who else is ga-ga-ga-gag?
I'm Gagisha'd, for sure.
I'm just listening.
I'm taking notes of everybody.
I see the gears turning
in everyone's head.
Spice, Marcia, and Loosey
are the three targets, bitch.
They are the bullseyes to be
safe in everybody's eyes.
I would just give the tea.
It is what it is.
And then the girls
people are scared of
would definitely have to be
Sasha and Anetra.
At the end of the day,
someone capped my ass,
'cause y'all were
more sicker than I was.
I can accept the fact.
See, you're not
a complete bitch.
Um, I'm in my congenial era.
[laughter]
[percussive b*at]
[dance music]
[laughter]
[singing] Cover girl
Put the bass in your walk
Head to toe
Let your whole body talk
Open your heart!
Who is that girl?
Welcome to the main stage
of "RuPaul's Drag Race."
Tonight, it's just family
for our lip-sync
LaLaPaRuZa smackdown.
Racers, start your engines,
and may the best drag queen win.
[dramatic music]
The LaLaPaRuZa smackdown
is about to commence,
and we're ready to battle it out
in these lip syncs until
one of these other girls
goes home...
Emphasis on "other."
[mouths words]
Welcome, queens.
For tonight's lip-sync
LaLaPaRuZa smackdown,
you will face off
in a series of eight lip syncs.
If you win your lip sync,
you'll be safe from elimination.
If you lose,
you'll continue to face off
until two queens remain.
In the end, one of you
will sashay away.
It feels like Ancient Rome.
- Yes!
- Yeah.
This is our version
of the Colosseum.
- Yeah.
- Gladiators.
Gladiator!
- [laughter]
- Oh, my gosh.
- [exhales]
- Now,
let the lip-sync
LaLaPaRuZa smackdown begin!
Oh, pit crew...
Ladies,
in Bruno's golden hopper
are ten balls
with your names on them.
Now, to determine
the first queen to lip-synch,
Bruno will randomly choose
one ball.
Bruno,
hit it.
Bruno, show us
whose ball you're holding.
Malaysia.
Now you get to choose
your opponent.
I know everybody
would've wanna see
a Malaysia vs. Mistress,
but I know that Spice
is probably one
of the weaker lip-synchers.
[sighs]
I don't know.
I don't know who I'ma choose.
[sighs]
Malaysia,
now you get to choose
your opponent.
Girl, just say my name.
Come on, it's the...
Give the girls what they want...
Malaysia vs. Mistress.
Who do you choose?
[dramatic music]
Marcia Marcia Marcia.
Like, bitch,
wrong choice.
- Ooh, ooh, ooh.
- Oh, my God.
Marcia Marcia Marcia,
you may choose the song.
- Ooh...
- Will it be...
Please, I wanna do Celine Dion,
"It's All Coming Back
to Me Now."
"Boys Don't Cry" by Anitta.
The rest of you may step
to the back of the stage.
Two queens stand before me.
The time has come
for you to lip-synch
for
your
life!
Nobody here
has seen me lip-synch.
Let's just say, um,
when I lip-synch,
it's a flipping good time.
Good luck,
and don't
f*ck it up.
[singing] Sometimes, I call
you when I can't sleep
Alone
In your feelings, I can feel it
You're in your feelings
You won't admit it
But that's why I push you
away from me
'Cause I know, I know
It drives you crazy
Try to tame me
But nobody's taking control
Over me
Whoo, bitch!
[singing] Baby,
you be talking tough
Didn't see that coming,
did you, Malaysia?
[singing] Enough
when the girls don't need
This bitch be having me
do backflips and sh*t.
Like, right now,
it's time to amp it up.
Malaysia, get this leg up
in this air, baby!
[singing] Ooh, baby, baby,
you be talking tough
Ooh!
[singing] Can't get enough
when the girls
Yes, bitch!
Come on!
[all screaming]
[singing] Ooh, baby, baby
Hey!
[singing] 'Cause your boys
can't get enough
Come on, Malaysia!
- Okay, Malaysia.
- Come on, y'all.
[singing] Who says boys
don't cry?
- [screams]
- Yes!
Oh, wow.
[laughter]
Ladies, I've made my decision.
[dramatic music]
Marcia Marcia Marcia,
shantay, you stay.
You are safe
to slay another day.
Thank you very much.
This is the first time
the judges have gotten
to really see me, like,
be a little ferocious.
Now I get to relax
in the workroom.
Malaysia, I'm sorry, my dear,
but you are still
up for elimination.
I think Malaysia
is bamboozled AF,
because she picked Marcia
thinking she was gon' b*at her,
and that didn't happen.
Will the eight
remaining queens step forward?
Whoa!
Oh, my God!
I feel like Nicole Kidman
just popped up
on the screen
at the AMC movie theaters.
I am so excited for this.
Let's see who's lip-synching
in round two of our smackdown.
Bruno is holding Loosey's ball.
Finally.
I am really happy,
because I wanted
to have this advantage
of picking my opponent.
This is a game of survival.
Who do you choose
as your opponent?
Spice.
Ah...
Ooh...
Now, Spice, it's your turn.
I'm in the mood
to spice things up.
So I'm gonna choose
- "Do You Wanna Touch Me."
- Solid choice.
The rest of you may step
to the back of the stage.
I'm low-key rooting for Spice,
because I feel like Loosey's
on the verge of cracking.
If she gets another loss,
she's gonna go off the deep end.
[laughing]
The time has come...
For you to lip-synch...
For your life.
Oh, the lights!
What's happening?
Ha ha!
Good luck,
and don't f*ck it up.
Werk.
Spice really, like,
looks the part,
and she could pull it out.
[singing] Every girl and boy
Needs a little joy
All you do is sit and stare
Beggin' on my knees
Baby, won't you please
Run your fingers through my hair
My, my, my, my
Whiskey and rye
Don't it make you feel so fine?
Right or wrong
Don't it turn you on?
Come on.
Pick it up, girls.
Come on.
[singing] Yeah, do you wanna
touch - [singing] Yeah!
- [singing] Do you wanna touch
- [singing] Yeah!
[singing] Do you wanna
touch me there?
Where?
Yeah, yeah!
[singing] There, oh, yeah
[singing] Oh, yeah
Whoo!
Ha!
Oh, my God,
I think she just got it.
[laughter]
[singing] Oh, yeah
Ooh, lookin' hot.
Lesbians!
[laughter]
Who's it gonna be?
Who's hanging out with me
for the rest of the day?
[suspenseful note]
Ah!
What?
This lip sync is honestly
much closer a call
than I thought it would be.
The suspense is just k*lling me.
[electronic music]
Ladies, I've made my decision.
[suspenseful music]
Loosey LaDuca,
shantay, you stay.
Thank you so much.
I m*rder*d this round
of LaLaPaRuZa,
and I'm feeling incredible.
So for the rest of LaLaPaRuZa,
I get to sit back and watch
the rest of these rounds
go down.
[dance music]
It gets lonely on top.
That's what she said.
- Hello, hello, hello!
- [screams]
- Welcome to the top nine, girl!
- Hey, girl!
Ooh, top nine...
Let's see who's lip-synching
in round three.
- Oh, we're watching now.
- Ugh.
[suspenseful music]
Luxx Noir London.
Who do you choose
as your opponent?
Salina.
[gasps]
Baby, knowing Luxx,
she thinks I'ma pick
a twirling, bucking song,
but she didn't know I'm about
to pick this ballad, honey.
Salina, what song do you choose?
I think I'm gonna choose
"It's All Coming Back to Me Now"
by Celine Dion.
I do this number
all the time back at home.
I'm known for it, girl.
She gets coins with this number.
So bye, Luxx.
[dramatic music]
This Celine Dion song
is not a song that I would
particularly choose.
However, I am an actress,
and I can pull anything off.
Good luck, and don't
f*ck it up.
[singing] There were nights
when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window
[shrieks]
[laughter]
[singing] But you were history
With the slamming of the door
And I made myself
so strong again somehow
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were nights
of endless pleasure
It was more than your laws allow
Baby, baby, baby
When you touch me like this
When you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
My eyes are right on Salina, honestly.
Mine are on Luxx.
[singing] When you see me
like this
[laughter]
And when I see you like that
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back
To me now
[vocalizes]
If you forgive me all this
[laughter]
I'll forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back
To me now
It's all coming back to me now
And if we...
[laughter]
I really do not know,
and it's, like,
a full-ass toss-up for me.
[sighs]
[suspenseful music]
Salina EsTitties,
shantay, you stay.
You are safe
to slay another day.
Thank you so much.
Luxx Noir London,
I'm sorry, my dear,
but you are still up
for elimination.
Honestly,
I am a little very gagged.
You still look good, bitch.
Always.
Ms. Luxx, I don't think
this is sitting well with her.
I think this has put
a cr*ck in the vase.
k to you now!
[all screaming]
Oh, my God!
Bitch, I am ecstatic right now!
[screams]
Luxx thought she could b*at me.
Bitch, bye.
- [screams]
- Oh, they're back on.
Up next...
[dramatic music]
Mistress,
who do you choose
as your opponent?
Let's see. Um...
I'm gonna choose the person
who I think is gonna choose
a song that I want.
Um, let's go with Jax.
- Ooh...
- So Jax,
what song do you choose?
"Tell It to My Heart"
by Taylor Dayne.
Ugh, I am a mastermind,
a genius.
The other two girls
may step to the back
of the stage.
Oh, so it's gonna be
Sasha vs. Anetra.
Ooh, hot.
Oh, [bleep,
the one person that I didn't
want to lip-synch against.
The time has come
for you to lip-synch
for
your
life!
When I perform,
a lot of my personality
comes through.
I'm just gonna give them
a good old taste
of the Brooks dynasty.
Good luck,
and for the love
of Taylor Dayne,
don't f*ck it up.
[singing] I feel
the night explode
When we're together
Emotion overload
In the heat of pleasure
Come on, Mistress!
[singing] Take me, I'm yours
Into your arms
Never let me go
Tonight, I really
Need to love
Come on, girls.
[singing] Tell it to my heart
Tell me I'm the only one
Is this really love
Or just a game
Every tone is in the light.
I know I'm shining bright.
[laughter]
The judges are gagging, honey.
[singing] My name
- Oh!
- Whoa!
Bitch!
[singing]
No, I can't let you go
Jax, of course, is doing
all of the acrobatics.
Whoo!
[laughter]
But Mistress is
really just commanding
the front of the stage
with all of her presence.
[singing] A game
Tell it to my heart
I can feel my body rock
Every time you call my name
Tell it to my heart
Tell it from the start
Tell it to my heart
Heart, heart, heart
Never make it stop
Oh, take it to the heart
Heart, heart, heart, uh-uh
Tell it to my heart
[laughter]
Very passionate.
- Girl...
- Jax, baby.
- Girl...
- That was it.
God...
Ladies, I've made my decision.
[suspenseful music]
Mistress Isabelle Brooks,
shantay, you stay.
Thank you so much.
You gave me a run
for my money, bitch.
[laughs]
I'm a bit shocked.
I absolutely did not expect
to be in this position
right now.
My jaw is tired
from fake-smiling.
[suspenseful music]
- Jax, right?
- Oh, my God, Jax.
- Jax, for sure.
- No question.
Oof, I bet Mistress is
gonna feel some sort of way,
but here's the thing...
Now, y'all knew
the heavyweight champ
- was gonna win big.
- Oh, my God!
It was really nothing.
[laughs]
Whoo, why you gagging, honey?
[screams]
Bitch, work.
We'll be honest.
We thought Jax won
that lip sync.
Both: Yeah.
Oh, well, y'all need to get
your eyes checked, honey.
Ha!
I expected the girls to be like,
"Bitch, you k*lled it,"
but the girls
are being sourpusses,
say they thought Jax won.
So why'd you think Jax won?
She's very, like,
- vroom-vroom.
- You weren't giving 100%.
- Yeah.
- My tactic going in was
in case I had to go
a second round,
- I wanted to save...
- Right.
A little bit
of what I could give,
and I mean,
at the end of the day,
whether you thought
I did a great job or not,
I'm still here,
so it don't really mats.
Boots.
Since the girls
wouldn't start rooting
as soon as I walk in,
they changed my whole mood too.
So I'm like,
"Let's get right into it."
Like, Loosey, I mean, I felt
like you definitely lucked out,
like, getting to pick Spice,
no tea.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Also, I did take
into account that the girls
who people didn't wanna go against
would be there
till the very end.
All the girls that, like,
people didn't think were
gonna be good lip-synchers
were picked first.
So, and I was like, "Well,
you can go f*ck yourself."
Oh, my God,
don't put that in there.
I didn't say that.
Sorry.
Oh, my God, it's gonna be used.
No!
- Ladies...
- Oh, sh*t.
You will be lip-synching
in round five of our smackdown.
The last gals standing,
by process of elimination...
So excited about this one.
Bruno, do your thing.
[suspenseful music]
Now show us the ball.
Anetra.
[suspenseful note]
Anetra,
time to choose the song.
Let's go with
"I'm in Love with a Monster"
by Fifth Harmony.
I know the song,
I know my opponent,
I know the stage,
and I know me.
Let's just get going.
[laughs]
[dramatic music]
The time has come
for you to lip-synch
for your life.
So now, the two b*tches
everyone's scared of
gotta go against each other.
Let's get the popcorn out, honey.
It's gonna be a show.
Good luck, and don't
f*ck it up.
[dramatic music]
[singing] Oh
He'll buy me a thorn
Before he'll buy me a rose
Be covered in dirt
before I'm covered in gold
He's trying it on
Yeah he's ticking me off
Say what you want
but I won't ever be told
'Cause I'm in love
With a monster
Hoo, hoo, ah-ooh
Friends say I'm stupid
and I'm out of my mind
But without you, boy,
I'd be bored all the time
No, I don't really care
for the same conversation
Got everything I need
I'm known for my hair flips.
I just see my ponytail
going in all
the different directions.
I'm giving you dodging-b*ll*ts,
Matrix back bends.
- [singing] I'm in love
- [singing] I'm in love
- Ah!
- [screams and laughs]
[singing] Sweeter you try
They don't be getting love
from it
Ain't worth a dime
'Cause I just don't get
enough from it
Leave it to me don't you see
I don't run from it
Bitter the better
Hey, hey, hey, hey
[singing] You make me crazy
but I love it
[singing] I love it baby
[singing] You make me crazy baby
But I love it
- You make me crazy
- [singing] Oh, oh
I'm in love
With a monster
Hoo, hoo, ah-ooh
- [singing] Did you know
- [singing] Did you know
[singing] Everybody loves
a monster
[singing] Yeah
- [singing] Did you know
- [singing] Did you know
[singing] Everybody loves
a monster?
[singing] Yeah, yeah, yeah
[singing] I'm in love
[singing] We're in love
[singing] With a monster
Ooh, ooh, ah-ooh
I'm in love
I'm in love with a monster
I'm in love
With a monster
[singing] Hit me
Hit me
Hit me
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight
Hit
Thank you.
Good night!
[laughter]
sh*t!
Oh, my God, men are orgasming.
- Ha.
- Wow.
That was unreal.
Ladies, I've made my decision.
[dramatic music]
My God,
they were both incredible.
- I wouldn't be able to pick.
- This is nuts.
[cheers]
Oh, my God!
[all cheering]
- Yes, ma'am!
- Congrats, girl.
Oh, my gosh, yo!
I won!
And it feels really nice
to have k*lled it.
[laughs]
Anetra, I'm sorry, my dear,
but you are still up
for elimination.
Okay, well, if
I was gonna lose to anybody,
I'm glad it's Sasha.
But that will be the last time.
It's time for the sixth round.
- Oh, girls, we're back on.
- Oh, oh, what's happening?
[dramatic music]
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.
I wanted somebody to choose me.
I wanted to choose the song.
Malaysia looks plucked.
She is plucked.
Which queen do you choose
as your opponent?
I don't want to get kicked
in the head.
I don't want nobody
doing no splits on top of me,
duck-walking all over my back.
It's like...
Spice.
Now, Spice,
which song do you choose?
I'm gonna go
with "Don't Go Yet,"
by Miss Camila Cabello.
My logic behind choosing
"Don't Go Yet"
is because I know
Malaysia doesn't know
the words to this song.
[dramatic music]
Good luck, and don't f*ck it up.
[guitar music]
I'm ready...
[singing] I replayed this
moment for months
Alone in my head,
waiting for it to come
I wrote all your lines
in the script in my mind
Malaysia doesn't know the words.
She does not know the words.
You're right.
[singing] Don't go yet
Oye, don't go yet
Don't go yet
Oye, don't go yet
Don't go yet
I'm like, "Yes, I got her!
She doesn't know the words!"
I'm like, "Oh, sh*t.
I don't know the words either."
[singing] Baby don't go yet
'cause I wore this dress
So that plan
completely disintegrated
into nothing.
[singing] I bet that you
think that you know
I don't think either one
of them really know the words.
[laughter]
[singing] I get what I want
when I want
And I get it how I wanna, wanna
And I want you baby
Gotta get you baby
All night long
- [laughter]
- No! No!
She is not doing
the conga line dance!
[singing] Oye, don't go yet
Don't go yet
Oye, don't go yet
Don't go yet
What you leaving for
when my night is yours?
Yours, yours
What you leaving for
when my night is yours?
Just a little more don't go yet
[applause]
Already tired, and she's like,
"f*ck, I gotta do this again."
- Yes!
- [laughs]
Stop!
Ladies...
[dramatic music]
I've made my decision.
Ladies,
I've made my decision.
[dramatic music]
Malaysia Babydoll Foxx,
shantay, you stay.
Cool thing.
Oh, my gosh, like,
I survived this lip sync.
Whew.
Spice...
I'm sorry, my dear,
but you are still up
for elimination.
So, once again,
I have to go to the back
and keep lip-synching.
Okay, okay, we got
one last chance to stay.
Oh, the fattest and the baddest
is still in the building.
[all cheer]
[laughs]
I'm here.
I'm fay.
I'm sipping on this cocktail,
trying to drink
my feelings away.
[laughs]
Well, I'm happy to be here.
I have to ask,
why did you pick me?
Um, it was no reason.
Honestly, I just went...
I just went blank,
and I was like...
You was next to me.
[dramatic music]
I call bullshit.
I feel like you really thought
you were gonna slay Marcia.
No, I mean...
Oh, oh, it's back.
It's back.
Oh, my God.
Ladies, the fickle finger
of fate
has chosen the three of you
to lip-synch next,
and you will be lip-synching
to...
"The Right Stuff"
by Vanessa Williams.
[dramatic music]
To be honest,
I can take two b*tches.
Your girl is ready to do so.
The time has come
for you to lip-synch...
for your life.
I am ready to eat
these girls alive.
Good luck, and don't f*ck it up.
[singing] Get on up
Get on up
Na na na na hey hey
Voulez-vous venir?
- Ooh!
- Oh!
[singing] Standing
at the 7:15
Waiting for my baby's car
Just then, out stepped
the driver of a limousine
And asked if I was going far
I said
"I've got my mind made up"
- This is like Luxx era.
- Come on!
[singing] Leave him, baby,
'cause it's clear to me
Yes, Anetra!
[singing] That it's just
too tough
To find another lover like
Mine
With the right stuff
The right stuff, baby
- Oh!
- Whoo!
Oh, girl!
[singing] The right stuff
na na na na
Hey hey hey
The right stuff
I don't wanna miss out
on the right stuff
Ooh, no, with Mr. Right
Sing
Na na na na hey hey
- Come on!
- Who knows the words?
[singing] To give me that
loving 'cause
Next to him,
there is no other one
He's very sexy, oh so sweet
And he knocks me
off my feet, sing!
Na na na na hey hey-ey
I need the right stuff, baby
Walk the duck, bitch.
Walk that f*cking duck.
[singing]
All the right stuff
Say na na na na na-na-na-na
Na na na na
Come on, seduction.
[laughing]
Ladies...
I've made my decision.
[dramatic music]
Do you think two girls
are getting saved
from this lip sync, or just one?
- I think two girls.
- I think two will be saved.
See you, folks!
[all screaming]
I just b*at not one,
but two b*tches on the stage.
The fiercer they are,
the harder they fall.
You slayed that last song.
I had a little more fire
under me
because I already had the idea
that I was, like,
how they say, "robbed"
for the first one.
I thought that I won,
like, not in my head.
- But you didn't.
- Yeah, but I'm here now,
- so that doesn't matter.
- Exactly.
And I didn't lose any nails.
- Yes!
- The first time...
Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait.
Anetra, Jax.
I'm sorry, my dears,
but you are still
up for elimination.
Spice, please step forward.
This is the final round
of our lip-sync LaLaPaRuZa Smackdown.
[dramatic music]
And it comes...
with a twist.
Oh!
[all gasp]
What is it?
Three of you remain...
but only two of you
will lip-synch for your life.
[dramatic chords]
In a moment,
Bruno will randomly choose
the name of one queen.
Then that queen
will have the power
to save one of her
fellow queens on stage...
and send her straight back
to the workroom.
Bitch!
Oh, my God.
This is a twist!
The queen that remains
will lip-synch for her life.
In the end, one of you
will sashay away.
[suspenseful music]
Anetra!
The fate of your fellow queens
now rests in your hands.
Who do you choose to save?
Ooh, the drama!
Oh, my gosh, I'm sure
Jax and Spice are gagging.
This is f*cking crazy.
Ha ha. I can't wait to see
how this turns out.
- Oh!
- I knew it!
I knew it!
[dramatic music]
All right, Anetra.
Who do you choose to save?
Spice.
I can't lip-sync against Spice.
Like, do y'all think
that's fair?
And honestly I have no problem
taking Jax out.
This is a punch to the gut.
I thought that
we were closer than that,
but if Anetra wants
to lip-sync against me,
then it's a battle
that she's gonna get.
Spice, you are free
to slay another day.
I am so beyond gagged
'cause I did not expect it.
I fully thought
it was a wrap for me.
I love you forever.
Oh, my God.
Good luck.
[laughter]
I'm gagging.
When we thought we knew it,
- curveball.
- Girl.
We are all shivering with
antici... pation right now.
Wait, can somebody, like,
re-explain what happened?
I'm kind of confused.
- Hi, girls.
- Spice!
[all screaming and cheering]
Yay!
[all speaking at once]
I am gagged.
[laughter]
I just survived
by the skin of my teeth.
[laughter]
I'm so happy to see all y'all.
I fully thought
I wasn't gonna see you again.
- All: Aww.
- We love you.
Yeah, seriously.
Two queens stand before me.
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
Here we go!
Prior to tonight,
you were asked to prepare
a lip-sync performance
of "Finally" by CeCe Peniston.
This is your last chance
to impress me
and save yourself
from elimination.
[dramatic music]
The time has come...
[thunder crackles]
For you to lip-synch...
for your life.
Good luck, and don't f*ck it up.
[upbeat dance music]
[vocalizing]
Finally, it has happened to me
Right in front of my face
And I just cannot hide it
Meeting Mr. Right,
the man of my dreams
The one who shows me true love
Or at least it seems
With brown cocoa skin
and curly black hair
It's just the way he looks at me
That gentle loving stare
Finally you've come along
The way I feel about you,
it just can't be wrong
If you only knew
the way I feel about you
I just can't describe it
Oh, no, no
- Whoo! Work!
- Hey, okay.
Great.
[singing] Right in front
of my face
My feelings can't describe it
Finally it has happened to me
Right in front of my face
And I just cannot hide it
Finally
Oh, finally
Yeah, yeah
- [vocalizing]
- [laughs]
[singing] Finally it has
happened to me
Right in front of my face
And I just cannot hide it
- [laughs]
- Oh, yes!
- All right.
- Fierce.
That was so solid.
[dramatic music]
Ladies...
I've made my decision.
Anetra.
Shantay, you stay.
You are safe to walk
that f*cking duck another day.
Thank you.
You are the right bitch.
Like the song says, finally.
Finally.
[laughter]
Quack, quack.
Jax, we loved you from the jump.
Thank you for leaving it all
on the dance floor.
Now, sashay away.
I love you all so much,
so thank you.
Thank you.
Fatality.
[soft laughter]
I know that Anetra wants
a challenge,
so I'm happy I have that to her
in the final round.
Of course I'm sad,
but it's just the beginning.
Get ready.
A Jax flip is coming your way,
and it's gonna be a storm, baby.
Whoo.
[high-pitched] Finally!
[all cheering]
I have to give you
the biggest hug
- in the entire world.
- Spicy.
- I love you so much, ah!
- I love you.
Anetra, I respect it.
That's a bad bitch move.
You played fair.
That is sickening.
Can we make a cheers
to the top nine?
[all cheering]
Top nine, top nine!
[laughter]
Ladies, if you can't
love yourself,
how in the hell you gon' love
somebody else?
Can I get an "amen" up in here?
- [all cheering]
- Amen!
All right.
Now let the music play.
A little bit of love
goes a long, long way
Turn it around
when you up and say
Can you feel the love
Next time on
"RuPaul's Drag Race..."
today is our 200th episode.
[screaming and cheering]
And we are throwing a ball.
[cheers and applause]
These girls aren't playing
any games.
Nobody is safe.
I'm thinking about myself.
Still, like...
[glass shattering]
[all scream]
I'm worried about Heidi.
Goes a long, long way
Lifting you up to a brighter day
A little bit of love
Goes a long, long way
Turn it around
when you up and say
Everybody say love
Can you feel the love?
