Not at all. Good legs though.

LOL, that NYT column author's friend seems like boyfriend material to me.

I'm 3/4 the way through S2 -- I know that Tyra won but is it just me or does she give off low-level sociopath vibes? Something about the flat affect in the way she talks is just kind of 'off' for me. Or she's just super-immature. Either way, whoa.

I'm especially fond of his non-aggression.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Friday, 1 March 2013 17:23 (eleven years ago) link

Really hope she wins, but Michelle Visage really has it out for Jinkx.

haha there is a video on her site where jinkx talks about the formative influence of death becomes her

afaic, that movie did as much to mold my camp sensibilities as anything by Paul Morrissey or John Waters (both of which I came to much later)

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Friday, 1 March 2013 17:33 (eleven years ago) link

Tyra starts the season really bitchy and defensive but ends up being really sweet. The strangest turnaround. (x-post)

LeRooLeRoo, Friday, 1 March 2013 17:39 (eleven years ago) link

lol @ the edit, "I AM A THREAT" *snores* hee hee

I hope she goes all the way.

Same here!

Ned Raggett, Monday, 4 March 2013 17:53 (eleven years ago) link

I completely forgot about the narcolepsy.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Monday, 4 March 2013 18:21 (eleven years ago) link

And she survived so yay for that. Ivy deserved the win though -- the only other real singer from what I could tell but the dress was inspired.

Gotta say that the Alyssa and her dad moment in Untucked was a heavy emotional hit.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 5 March 2013 16:11 (eleven years ago) link

Didn't she have immunity?

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Tuesday, 5 March 2013 16:23 (eleven years ago) link

Ha, true re: Jinkx and immunity, I completely forgot about that. She didn't slack, though!

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 5 March 2013 16:25 (eleven years ago) link

They didn't mention immunity this week. I thought Alyssa was the last one to have it.

LeRooLeRoo, Tuesday, 5 March 2013 18:02 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, they didn't mention anything about immunity for Ivy this week. It must just cycle out at a certain point.

The moment Jade started talking about her past and tearing up in the to-the-camera interview footage, I knew she was toast. They'd been building her up as the cutest little snake in the grass for awhile now, so the gear shift tipped their hand.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:03 (eleven years ago) link

Also, I've seen a couple blog recaps point this out (A/V I think?), but I'm pretty damned certain Alyssa and Coco are partially fabricating their bad blood.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:05 (eleven years ago) link

I'm glad I found this thread! I love Jinkx and am watching Grey Gardens in her honour right now. Most of the rest of them, however..

Felt sort of bad for the queens, having to freestyle to that dirge.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:11 (eleven years ago) link

Almost as sorry as I am they are forced to drink Absolute cran every week.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:19 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah the song = no great shakes.

The Pointer Sisters were frickin' awesome guest judges though! Bring 'em back anytime!

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:23 (eleven years ago) link

Love that LaToya is logging her third appearance as a guest judge and still looks afraid of everyone.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:24 (eleven years ago) link

I'm afraid of her! That nose/chin combination could cut steel.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:28 (eleven years ago) link

Meantime it was also nice to actually hear the Death Becomes Her bit.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:29 (eleven years ago) link

Seriously. Jinkx is my no-contest favorite in this cycle.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 00:37 (eleven years ago) link

I'm glad Jade's gone. That cute thing got old quick. And that hairy wtf getup. Bleh.

Jinkx was cool but Ivy def eclipsed everyone. She's impressing me more and more.

Holy shit @ Detox's surgery list. What the fuck would it do to you have silicon *muscles*. Jeeezus lady.
Her cleavage is weird, it looks like an ass crack. But her actual ass crack is lovely, lol

I love Jinkx but I am a tiny bit worried. Michelle really is out for her.

Holy shit @ Detox's surgery list.

First thing I thought was all of that but NOT THE NOSE??

LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 05:45 (eleven years ago) link

Hahah.

Jinkx may just wear Michelle down, we'll see. Ivy did step up for sure after last week! Like 'em both, really, but Jinkx I'll make time for.

My theory is that CoCo will make the top three by default, meaning: if she ends up in the bottom 2 at any point in the future, she'll kill at lip syncing once again. So...she's going all the way.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 05:51 (eleven years ago) link

I agree re: Coco. Lip syncing's her superpower, no doubt. Honestly as batshit crazy as she is, I'd love to see her Janet show. I bet she kills it.

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 05:56 (eleven years ago) link

Michelle really is out for her.

Not exactly sure if Michelle has much nice to say about any of these girls.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 13:03 (eleven years ago) link

I think in the history of judging on this show, it's MUCH more damning for a contestant if Santino is the one calling you out on the runway. Michelle always has her favorites but she's always been a tough critic.

fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 14:09 (eleven years ago) link

And let's face it: she HAS a point. Jinkx is supremely talented and funny and insightful and it's been great watching her character develop this season, but the LOOK could be elevated for SURE.

fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 14:10 (eleven years ago) link

Little Edie does indeed use a magnifying glass a lot in GG.. Good work, Jinkx! Had to turn the movie off though, it was too depressing for me. I do agree Jinkx could be a bit more glamorous. Not sure if I can ever look at Ivy the same way after that terrible Marilyn - the Snatch Game means so much to me.

Am I am mistaken in thinking that the reason her name is pronounced IVEEEEE WIINNNTTEERRRSSS was because of the way Latoya introduced Ivy onstage somewhere? Did I miss them taking advantage of this glorious opportunity in this episode?

she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 14:58 (eleven years ago) link

ivy's marilyn was unforgivable

fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 15:05 (eleven years ago) link

It was despicable. Ru sorta confused her by telling her to be a smart dumb blonde.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 15:19 (eleven years ago) link

there was nothing marilyn about it besides the beauty mark, least of all that horrible ice dancing costume

fueled by satanism, violence, and sodomy (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 15:32 (eleven years ago) link

The part that was edited out but was shown on the Logo website where she tries to wear her tiara around her neck was kind of funny.

LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 17:02 (eleven years ago) link

tbh i don't really think coco has much of a chance for the final 3. she's good for a lip synch, yeah, but she's had 2 high energy dance songs versus a couple self-conscious queens. all it takes is a broadway number to take her outside her comfort zone and she's toast.

Hey New Yorkers

https://www.facebook.com/events/533941493295456/

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 18:18 (eleven years ago) link

This is actually a great lineup!

Featuring Michelle Visage (head judge on the show), Pandora Boxx (Season 2), Carmen Carrera (Season 3), Mimi Imfurst (Season 3), Alaska Thunderfuck (Season 5), Jinkx Monsoon (Season 5) and Ivy Winters (Season 5). Note: lineup subject to change.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 18:19 (eleven years ago) link

I can't deal with Mimi. Theater kids are the worst.

Ulna (Nicole), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:52 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, I've been filling time between new EPs by catching up, and started with season 3. Mimi should've been knocked out of the running on day 1.

Zero Dark 33⅓: The Final Insult (Eric H.), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:55 (eleven years ago) link

Mimi is the weakest link in that bunch, yeah. Manila Luzon would have been perfect.
