The top two All Stars of the Week
are Salina EsTitties and Vivacious.

Bottom four, it's time for you to give your MVQ point
to the All Star you think
is the Most Valuable Queen of the Week.
Choose wisely because your MVQ point
could determine which queens advance to the semi-finals.
With 6 points each,
Crystal Methyd and Silky Nutmeg Ganache,
you are advancing to the semi-finals.
Condragulations.

are going to be able to handle the method to this madness.

at the end of Bracket 3,
Michelle and I will choose three eliminated queens
to be entered into the wild card lottery.
The one All Star chosen will join the competition
starting in the semi-finals. - Wow.

When I design something, I'm going to go
and buy the bolts of fabric that I need and make it.
OK.
It's a lot of stuff, but it's not a lot of fabric.
I mean, let's be real. This is not fabric.
These are articles of clothing.
And there's buttons
and there's zippers, and, like, it is a nightmare.
I am sick of seam-ripping these shorts.
- I too went home on a design challenge.
- I didn't go home.

They said design challenge.
I designed a look.
It's just I didn't make the pants. [laughs]
- This is the redemption. - Period.
So this time around,
I need to make sure my look is from scratch.
But right now, there's a lot of everything on this table.

[laughter] - Yes.
- Auditions start right over there.
- All right, Sham Shtar.
- Coming, Mom.
- It seems like you were just here a minute ago.
- You can't get rid of me. - [laughs]
- I'm back. - I love it.
Now, you came close to winning.
- So close. - So close to winning.
Lexi Love, Sam Star,
I'm sorry, my dears, but this is not your time.
- Getting so close and then not getting it, like,
made me even more excited to come back.
- What's your strategy for winning this competition?
- I think I'm going to try and redo
all the things that I thought I mis-stepped
a little the first time. - Mm-hmm.
- I think, you know, truly be more authentically me.
- Do you feel that you weren't being
your authentic self before?
- You know, I think towards the end, I definitely got there.
At the beginning, I was just so terrified
and overwhelmed with everything.
- Sam is a fierce competitor, but she literally went home,
took a shit, and came right back.
The transformation probably isn't going to be there.
Love that.
- And I see you have a soccer ball
and a basketball and a baseball,
and you're going to put those somewhere.
- Yes. Would you like to see my design, Mother?
- I would love to see your design.
- I'm going for like a Moschino does sporty, campy,
but couture and fabulous. - I love it.
Now, you won your design challenge, didn't you?
- I did.
- You're a very talented designer.
I can't wait to see what you come up with.
- The pressure's on.
Even though I'm working with materials
I've never worked with before,
I think the bar is very high for me coming back.
I did really well my first season,
and I impressed the judges and America.
So I think I have to slay everything
that I did my first season
or it's going to be horrible, y'all.
Like, how embarrassing is that?
That's humiliating.
- All right, Hershii, come on over.
Let me get to know you.
- Of course. [laughter]
- Damn.
- Now, you were eliminated first on your season.
- I was.
- That was a design challenge, too.
- It was. - So when you heard--[laughs]
When you heard this was going to be a design challenge,
what was your first thought?
- Trigger, trigger. - Sure.
You have a couple of designs. One is a jumpsuit.
- Yes. - And the other is a gown.
- Yes. - OK.
Do you know how to sew?
- I stitch and repurpose, but unconventional materials
are still a little he-ha for me.
- Sure. But that is stretchy.
- This is stretchy.
I got to make new fabric for it.
Like, I'm trying to make fabric so I could make the outfit.
- Yeah.
I didn't get to know you very well,
but you seem like a completely different person.
- Honestly, I am not in the same headspace
that I was the first time around.
I was too focused on what everybody else was doing.
- Yeah.
- And I beat myself up, like, to death.
- You have two children.
What would you tell them if they
were in the same situation?
- Forget about everything that's going on,
and just go in there and have fun.
- Mm-hmm.
- I was in just a weird space mentally when I
first came to the competition.
It was my kids at home. That was hard.
But I decided to come back because
I can tell them, hey, reach for the stars, do this, do that.
But if they're not seeing me show up and do the same thing,
they're not going to do it.
They're watching everything. - They're watching everything.
- Yeah.
- Coming back into this competition is personal to me
because I have to show my kids,
no matter what the challenge is,
my mindset is I can pull this off.
I can do this.
- Hi, Shug. Welcome back.
- Thank you for having me back.
- You look fabulous.
- Thank you.
I mean, a little Botox, a little filler, working out.
- Oh, that's child's play.
You've got a sketch there.
So I see-- - There's a couple.
This is a silhouette that I'm going, very like '80s,
kind of like big shoulders,
very tight waist, and a little skirt.
- Dale Bozzio meets Devo.
- Amen. - Yeah.
- [laughs]
- Now, in the "Tournament of All Stars,"
a lot is dependent on bitches liking you.
[laughter] - True.
Look, I mean, I like to think that I'm likable.
And I-- - You are. You're very likable.
Did you have any beef when you were here before with anyone?
- No, never. No, I usually don't.
I'm, like, pretty drama free.
So for me, I'm here to play a fair game.
You know, obviously, I'm going to be smart,
you know what I mean?
To make sure that I'm not getting
swindled by these children. - Mm-hmm.
- Shuga Cain is sweet. She is such a lover.
But don't get it twisted. I am definitely here to play.
And I've got my eye on everybody because the children,
they look so cute, and they're all fun,
but they cannot be trusted.
I'm not going to get got. I'm just not.
- Kennedy Davenport.
- Coming, Mother. - [laughs]
- Good to see you again.
- It's good to see you, too. It's like the family reunion.
- Right?
- It really, really is.
Now, you're back in the competition one more time.
You came very close to winning the last time.
- Yes, and it's like being a competitor,
no is really hard for me to accept.
Shoot, I want to win.
But I knew I had work to do.
So I try to prepare to bring something different.
Just you never come back the same
because I want the world to know
that I'm the best of the best in all "RuPaul's Drag Race."
- Yeah. Yeah.
Who do you think is your biggest competition?
- Sam is very creative.
- That's right,
'cause you both have done the pageant circuit.
- Yes.
Jasmine might give me a run on the lip-sync.
I'm the old broom. She's the new broom.
- You still sweep, though.
- Hello. They learn from me.
All that stuff y'all been seeing is because of me.
But I'm my own competition and that's what I be focused on.
- All right.
What do you have there?
- I didn't grab shit.
I've been going shopping over at Family Dollar
and Dollar General.
But I think I'll do better once I get the machine threaded.
[laughter]
- Kennedy knows how to make RuPaul laugh.
And that means
she's definitely a formidable opponent.
So even though we have a Vegas sisterhood,
if I have to give away any MVQ,
I may need to give my point to someone else.
- I'm actually making a dress out of pants.
So y'all gotta give me some credit on something.
- [laughs]
Well, it depends on what other people are doing,
too, you know? - Well, yeah.
I mean, if we're doing comparative, OK.
- Joey Jay. - Hi, baby.
- Back in the house.
When you were here before, Joey Jay didn't wear wigs.
- You know, I feel like I milked
the no hair for every last drop that I could.
And one of the moments that really made it sink in
is we're getting ready for a show,
and these gorgeous goddesses,
they're all comparing these crazy messages
from online chasers.
And I was like, oh, I don't get any messages like that.
And then I was like, OK, I need to place an order.
And now that's how I gauge if I'm giving.
- OK.
- The more DMs that are creepy, the more pussy I feel.
[laughter]
- Are you feeling pussy now?
- Well, I don't have my phone, but--
- Stupid.
- Now, what are you working on there?
- I want to do something kind of sophisticated
but still has some sex appeal,
kind of like a Sporty Spice vibe, what she would wear.
- Oh, that's very nice.
- But we're just pinning right now.
I don't want it to look like a hodgepodge.
- Well, how has your skill changed since then?
Have you taken sewing lessons?
- Yeah.
I wouldn't say sewing is my passion.
- Yeah, no.
- But I'm here to get my doctorate degree.
And with that, there's, like, prerequisites, I guess.
- Well, sewing is part of it.
But it has more to do with what your aesthetic is.
- Yeah. - What is Joey Jay?
If you were to design a collection,
where would this place in your collection?
Do you know what I mean? - Yeah.
I went home on a design challenge,
so the PTSD is through the roof.
But I need to show RuPaul that I'm capable of doing this.
And bitch, I'm here to impress you.
- Who's your biggest competition here?
- I think there's a lot of wild cards.
I think some of us are really hungry, including myself,
and want to make a big impact.
- Well Joey, I can't wait to see what you turn out.
Your look, your aesthetic, that is purely Joey Jay.
- I'm pussy.
- You're all about the pussy, aren't you?
- That's why we're here, right?
- All right. Thank you, Joey. - Thank you.
- Lovely. - Mwah.
- Jasmine. - Yes.
- Mama wants a word with you.
- Oh, am I in trouble? What did I do?
- You're going to get a spanking.
- Ooh, don't tease me with a good time.
- Welcome back. - Thank you.
I look a lot different. - Yes.
You see how beautiful you look? - Oh, yes.
I couldn't stop staring at myself in the mirror.
I was just looking at.
I was like, yeah.
- So you haven't won a Maxi Challenge.
- Not yet.
- How are you going to achieve that now?
- I'm going to try to do some pleating.
- You're going to show off that body.
- Of course. Gotta show it off.
I want y'all to see my new boobies.
- They're gorgeous. - Thank you.
And then taking a bunch of these
and then making something that kind of hangs off.
- You know, I love a whorish netting.
- I mean, that's my middle name, whorish net.
- When you think back on your time,
what's the first memory that pops up?
- My mouth.
I've been fighting with girls in the Werk Room,
in "Untucked," at the reunion.
- So if you have a mouth, how are
you going to navigate getting those points from your sisters?
- You know, very demure, very mindful, very considerate.
- Yes. - [laughs]
- The Mouth Almighty does not give demure.
Demure my ass, bitch.
It's going to be interesting to see
how Jasmine plays the social game.
She's going to have to make sure she's not causing drama
and not piss anybody off.
Actually, I hope she does. That'd be better for me.
Jasmine, stir the shit up, honey.
- [laughs]
[laughs]
[upbeat music]
- Oh, yes. Body.
- OK, strap.
- I went from beads to straps.
- OK.
- You have to design around your structure.
- So straight up and down. Got it.
- Don't come for my pancakes, my little flappy jack.
Honestly, I've been doing a lot on this top right now.
I am very serious about this challenge.
I'd love to show the judges that I'm actually
a really good designer.
Oh, I have to switch it again.
Uh.
So this has to be the best thing in the world.
Should I try to have pockets in mine?
Ooh.
- No. [laughter]
- It's OK, though, because looking around the room,
I see a lot of concepts.
I don't really see a lot of clothes.
And I don't really see the plan.
The vision is visioning and I think it's 20/20.
- I wouldn't vocalize that I feel good about something
that's so unfinished.
A lion doesn't walk around the jungle telling all the animals
that they're a lion.
- [gasps] It flew off.
[upbeat music]
- Joey, I see you on the big girl machine.
How we doing?
- After talking to RuPaul,
I'm really focused on creating a look
that shows my drag aesthetic and who I am today.
This machine, it saves time.
- Keep using it.
- Keep-- [laughter]
♪ ♪
- Sam, what are you doing at the base of that?
- I haven't really decided. I think I'm going to do a gown.
- Didn't you have a soccer look on your season?
- No, I had a football one.
- You did a football look? - Yeah.
- And you're doing another football look?
- Bitch, if you don't find some business--
- I'm trying to be a sister and help you out.
- No, it's not another football look.
Are you crazy? It's a sportsball look.
[laughter]
- OK, sis.
- It's different. Hello.
- Sam, I am getting nervous for you.
- Shut up.
These bitches are haters. They can't take it.
I love the sports theme.
And everybody knows my godfather
is one of the most famous basketball players ever.
Shout out to Uncle Charles Barkley.
Oh, girl, so much to do.
I have to represent in this sports theme,
or he's going to disown me.
Is this too much?
- I am so scared. - Don't be scared.
- Last time I heard that, I ended up pregnant.
So-- - How did you get pregnant?
- Jealous much? [laughter]
- How do you know I'm not with child right now?
- You're not glowing enough.
[dramatic music]
Miss Shug, how are you doing? What you working on?
- Girl, I'm over here trying to pivot.
- Pivot? What's going on?
- I cut my fabric too short.
- Oh, no. - So I'm making another outfit.
Ah, that's too tight.
That was the only large piece of fabric that I had.
So I have to find something even cuter.
But time is clicking.
The day is almost gone and I have nothing.
[laughs]
- I did this fucking wrong.
I did it wrong.
Ugh. - Ugh.
- Girl, fuck sewing.
- You guys want to know a funny story?
- Nope.
- Bitch, fuck you.
- I'm so grateful that we're all like, ah--
- 'Cause bitch, we struggling.
- ♪ The struggle bus ♪
- ♪ Struggle bus - ♪ Struggle bus ♪
- ♪ Struggle bus - ♪ The struggle bus ♪
♪ Is going to pick all our motherfucking asses up ♪
- Can you tell we're delirious?
- The struggle is real.
My look is definitely not finished.
I have to switch gears, but we have it in the GPS.
So I'm on the way.
Shuga, she says she's pivoting.
But to pivot means to change directions,
and she's not going anywhere.
Jasmine, for the last three hours,
it's been those same straps.
I look at Joey. Oh, a bra.
Ms. Davenport, I have no clue
what's going on with this skirt.
Bless her heart.
And all Sam's got is a top.
- Oh, yes.
- We are definitely going to be working into the night
to get these outfits finished.
- Anyone need some encouragement?
- Yeah.
- You better slay.
You're going to turn it on the runway.
[tense music]
- Go, Spartans.
- Fuck you bitches.
[upbeat music]
- We're here.
Who is going to get a touchdown,
and who's giving foul ball?
- I'm definitely getting a touchdown.
- Now where's the girls? - Honey.
- Today, we're ready to present our designs on the runway.
And I am feeling good.
I am so happy that I actually have something,
the way I have not slept.
I finally figured out my shit.
It came to me at literally the midnight hour.
And I realized I could take a couple pieces of my jacket
and cut it up and make it into a skirt.
So overnight, I did the entire outfit.
I'm ready.
- If we were the judges,
who would our top two be in the group?
- Definitely me. - Definitely me.
- The delulu.
- If everyone's at the top, who's at the bottom?
- I've never bottomed.
- That's a lie. That is a lie.
- It's delulu land.
But I'm not super overwhelmed
or wowed by some of the looks so far.
So I think being in the top two
could be actually obtainable.
- Oh, Sam, I have a gift for you,
actually, to help complete your look
because I think they would go so great.
[whistle blows]
- Ah!
- Here you go. - Thank you.
- Maybe one day this gift will help me.
[whistle blows] - Oh, yeah.
- I wasn't sure about Jasmine's gameplay or strategy,
but Jasmine is lending her earrings.
Line up, ladies.
- That was the worst decision.
- I want to see high knees.
- Why did you give her a whistle?
- I know. [whistle blows]
- I feel like Jasmine and I are getting along.
We're similar personalities.
We're sort of like the class clown,
always going for the joke.
And obviously, you can butt heads with that person,
but I'm hoping we can join forces.
Thank you, Jasmine. - You're welcome.
- What an angel baby.
- I think that one thing I love,
we knew each other at the beginning, and seeing you now--
- So different. - So different.
You can finally paint. - You can finally paint.
I painted too much back then.
I remember the first time I saw you.
It was the first night I ever went out in New York City
'cause it was the Lit Queen Pageant.
- Lit Queen Pageant, yeah. - That you won.
- Yeah.
- Jasmine is, I would say, one +of my closest friends here.
We're both from New York.
So I try to gauge like, what her tea is
and what is she thinking as far as this game.
So what are you going to do with these MVQs?
- Um--
- Like, what's your strategy?
Have you--
- Honestly, I think it's--
- What's your alliance game?
Like, is that even-- have you even thought about that?
- I haven't really.
I mean, I feel like I'm friendly with everyone.
Of course, there's people that I'm closer to.
- Yeah.
- I think that's pretty obvious. I mean, me and you.
- Yeah.
- I think me and Kennedy are very close as well.
Sam's been growing on me. I'm not going to lie.
She's been growing on me a lot and I like her a lot.
- Yeah, you guys are definitely vibing.
- I think Shuga right now is trying to figure out
what an alliance may be with me.
I don't know necessarily, though,
if I want to go into an alliance with Shuga right now
because I'm not looking for one person
to be on my team.
I'm looking at how many people can I interact with in ways
that would make them feel inclined
to give me a point one day.
- I can be trustworthy. Like, I'm a person of my word.
- Yeah. - So if you--
if you give me a point, I will give you a point.
- At the end of the day, I just hope
I don't have to give a point. - Amen.
I mean, look, girl--
I mean, we all want to be in the top.
Jasmine is not giving anything up.
So at this point, I feel like I'm at square one
and like I'm alone in this game.
- How do you feel Joey's going to go?
I don't know how to read, like, her strategy
because I haven't been able to pick up her plan.
- We gotta figure that out.
- Joey, how are you going to do your points for MVQ?
What are you thinking?
- You know, I haven't quite decided yet.
I kind of want to see how things unfold.
Like, is it going to be based off of judges' critiques?
Is it going to be based off of how the girls
are helping each other out?
But I'm not going to just marry one thing
because I think each situation is unique in its own way.
- Wow. - OK.
- Come on.
- You had time to put that together.
- We're very early in the competition,
and we don't have any obvious alliances right off the bat.
The only thing that I can see is that all of us
are really here to play the game and be competitive.
So I'm not revealing anything.
- Yeah, I'm assuming that most people
are going to want to even out the points a little bit.
Like, whoever's in the top I don't
think should count on getting any more points, you know?
- I definitely don't agree with that.
Everybody's up for it.
I do believe in fairness.
And so it's pretty broad, like everybody is saying.
And I think it's just going to boil down
to the runway, what the judges have to say,
and what's been transpiring so far.
- You got time to put that together.
- Right.
- No, that's my ministry, bitch.
That's actually my ministry.
- OK.
- I'm watching y'all
because Rate-A-Queen was a villainous act.
During my original season, there was Rate-A-Queen.
- Hershii, that last look was not good.
- So I already know having to rely on your competitor,
it's not fun.
I learned real quickly from my season.
The girls are saying one thing
and then you get to that voting booth
and you watch them do something different.
- Well, I ain't that bitch.
If I say something, I mean what I say.
- So Hershii, how you going to vote, sweetie?
- I have a strategy that I'm going to use.
- Which is?
- I didn't share because I need to see if it's going to work.
If it doesn't work, then I'm not going to do it anymore.
- OK. - Right.
- My strategy is to get the early outs,
i.e. me and Joey, to the end.
So I need to find some time to slide Joey Jay to the side
so we can have a conversation
because at least for this week, we got to protect each other.
We got to make sure we get something on the board.
- I think we have to do what's best for ourselves.
At the end of the day, we're all here to win.
And you have to play the game the way that you see fit.
You know?
- Oh, so you're out for yourself?
- Yes. - I mean, you better be.
It's All Stars.
- Jasmine. - Yeah.
- Don't forget we're giving out points.
Keep it cute.
- Right. You're going to be giving out points.
You're so right. - Oh!
- That's for sure.
[whistle blows] - Foul ball.
- I'm going to redact those earrings from you
if you use them one more time.
[whistle blows] [laughter]

Welcome, queens.
Tonight, "Tournament of All Stars" rules
are in full effect.
I'll name the top two All Stars of the Week,
and each will receive 2 points.
Then the top two will lip-sync for their chance to win $10,000
and 1 coveted extra point.
Remember, at the end of this bracket,
only the top two queens with the most points
will continue on to the semi-finals
with a chance to ultimately win $200,000.
And now it's time for the judges' critiques,
starting with Kennedy Davenport.
- Tell me what these materials are that you're wearing.
- The front part is made out of three pair of baseball pants.
And then the back is two pair of baseball pants.
Shoulder pads.
The corset is the jersey.
The gauntlet is the shin guard cover, a T-shirt.
[laughs] Some cardboard, bitch.
Yes, ma'am, very news reporter fish.
And I took the belts from the baseball pants
and just created a story.
- Well, the story works for me.
I love the hair that you put with it.
And you did sell it like business fish.
- It's reminding me of Dolce and Gabbana in the early '90s
when they did that kind of bondage sex runway,
and they did all the buckles and everything.
That was so fierce and that people are still coveting
and trying to find today.
I think you slayed this look.
- The color combination is so strange.
Because it's so wrong, it makes it right.
- The color palette is Fisher Price.
But the belts make it lean whore.
[laughter]
- Up next, Shuga Cain.
- If you can recall, this wasn't the original look.
We had some issues.
[laughter]
So I use track jackets for the top and the skirt,
like some bicycle shorts for the brassiere.
And then I pan-pleated a mesh top.
This is made out of jersey.
- It's really cute.
- It has so much nostalgia for me.
In 1986, I actually would have worn that to the mall.
- There are a couple execution issues,
like just along the top there.
It looks unfinished from here.
- I agree that maybe you could have done a bit of tape
on the under bit of the bra so there
was a kind of cohesive finish all the way around.
- Totally.
- Up next, Hershii.
- So we have jersey here.
I cut up a couple of cheerleading
skirts for my trim.
And then there's some jersey all around the corset.
- I love how you feel really confident in this look.
Like, the way you came out
when you were walking the runway,
it feels kind of vampy and like spooky sporty.
- This hair is everything. I'm living for it.
I know you love some hot glue, Hershii.
- Yes, ma'am.
- There's some execution issues.
- Couple things could have taken it to the next level,
I think, maybe some shoulder pads,
something just to give it a little more structure.
- Do you know what it is?
The silhouette you've chosen is very symmetrical,
except for this thing across here.
And because it's not perfect, it screws with our eyes.
- I see what you're saying. - Are those natural hips?
- Absolutely not. This is padding.
- Oh, padding. I've heard of that.
- Something new the girls are doing.
- Actually something new the girls are not doing.
- Up next, Joey Jay.
- Oh, my goodness.
So this bustier area is made out of blue gym shorts.
These are from a band jacket.
This is gym shorts.
And then I took shoelaces and put it through the bottom
so we could, like, adjust if we're feeling slutty or not.
- I love being able to adjust your slut levels.
- Of course. - I'm big into that, big.
But at the same time, it looks really high fashion.
I'm excited at some point to see you get real slutty.
- You'll have to subscribe.
- Joey, really, I think you look phenomenal.
There's something sporty about this, but it's also very chic.
It's also functional.
- My only thing is the gold buttons
because it's distracting me from the other designs
that are going on.
But I think this outfit is really cute.
What's your favorite part?
- The gold buttons.
- Oh, my God.
- Up next, Jasmine Kennedie. - Hi.
- Look at you, Jasmine.
- Who, me? - A whole new woman.
- Oh, accurate.
- Tell us your materials.
- I used jerseys for the skirt.
There's a bunch of different belts
to do all the harness work.
And then this is a jersey as well.
- Well, you left all the fabric for the other girls.
- I did. Sorry.
- My first thought was
"Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" with Edy Williams.
It is so Barbie goes to Coachella
and has a fling with another Barbie.
- Ooh. OK, sister action.
I'm into that.
- This is one of my top looks tonight.
You chose a palette that just makes sense to our eyes.
- But the best thing about it is how you laid it all out
from dark at the top, going to the bright color
in the middle, and then returning back.
That ombré creates the shape.
It's so smartly done.
- Up next, Sam Star.
- I used all the balls I could find.
I had to repurpose the jerseys because that
was the only fabric we had.
And I made my belt out of the winning ribbon, you know,
that you get in sports.
And I covered all of this in another black jersey.
- My favorite thing about the look
is like, there's sexy, sexy, sexy, sexy.
Sam is wearing every ball.
But it works.
It's drag. It's finished.
It's a little bit of up and down in the hem,
but for the most part, it's really well done.
- Thank you.
- The way you pieced this together,
the organization of your balls,
the placement is spectacular.
- Listen, you come from the pageant world.
You understand when there is a theme,
how to execute it beautifully.
This is outstanding.
Also, you know, when you walk the runway,
it's like a child pageant where the child
is very proud of their outfit and their--
- I made this myself. - Look, Mama, look.
- Yeah.
- Thank you, All Stars. I think we've heard enough.
While you untuck backstage,
the judges and I will deliberate.
You may leave the stage.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- All right, now, just between us
squirrel friends, what do you think?
We're looking for the top two All Stars of the Week.
- Kennedy, who has had a couple hiccups
when it comes to design challenges,
finally figured it out.
But this color combo is sort of against God's plan.
- Right.
- I think the combination of the high-fashion structure
of the look, but then the childlike colors,
made it a really interesting play.
- It's something that you just would never put together,
but it really, really worked.
I thought she really sold this.
- Jasmine. I mean, she came out,
and I think we were all like, wow, wow, wow.
- One of my favorite looks.
I genuinely would like to go home with it.
It was so gorgeous.
Also, the colors, they stood out in the lineup.
- And it looks simple.
I don't think it was that simple to put together.
- That's a very whorey skirt, right?
But there's one extra whorey area,
where it just lifts up a little bit.
And she placed the belt buckle there just to say,
look over here.
- And then at the other end of the spectrum,
you have this costume-y drag look that
comes out covered in every ball she could find.
It's a Sam dunk. - Oh, oh.
- And I have to tell you, she was very smart
tonight playing it this way, in my opinion.
- Yeah, I mean, that could have gone horribly wrong.
She could have chosen the wrong hair, the wrong accessories.
- The wrong balls. - The wrong balls.
- Are there any wrong balls? - I don't think so.
- Well, imagine golf balls on that guy.
- Yeah. - Well, there's that.
But this kid understands what she's here to do,
and she executed it beautifully.
All right.
Silence. I have made my decision.
Bring back my All Stars.
Welcome back, queens.
Based on your athletic supporter eleganza
runway presentations, I've made some decisions.
