Third Time's the Charm

Been meaning to write about Ru Paul's Drag Race Season 3, but again you know your Queen Rio's super busy so ayun, kahit may deadline pa ko 2day, uunahin ko pa rin to and write it just for you.

anyways, Season 3 is getting as bongga as ever, now on its 6th episode. technically 5th episode sya pero kung isasama yung first aired episode which was the Casting Special, pang 6 na sya talaga. naloloka nga ang mga vakla sa gaytorrents kasi labo-labo ang paglabel may 5, may 6. anyway, if you're also watching the RPDR through torrents, i recommend gay-torrents.net. Every Monday nag-e-air ang show sa US, so by tuesday night meron na sha online. sa piratebay.org kasi wala pa rin. delayed sha ng one week.

so ayun, backtrack tayo para masaya. 6th episode na which is the Snatch Game. di ko pa tapos i-download kasi kaka-upload lang nya sa gaytorrents. so next time ko na lang sya ire-review. pero basically, this one is sort of a remake of the Snatch episode in season 2. ang gist is the drag queens will impersonate their fave personality and join a game called Snatch featuring 2 celebrities and RuPaul as host.

Manila Luzon, the Fil-Am contestant from New York, will impersonate Imelda Marcos. based on the trailer parang charicature-ish masyado ang panggaya nya kay imelda pero let's see. i'll get back to you after i watch the show.

Manila is already the 2nd Fil-Am to make it to RPDR. Ongina was the first to join in season 1 and everybody just loved her coz she was very talented and friendly.  Ms. Betty has even adopted Ongina's mantra which is "Life is a Celebration."

anyways, episode 5 naman was the QNN News, wherein the ladies were grouped into 2 teams and do their own morning show.  Manila won the challenge because of her zany performance as a roving reporter, albeit with some controversy because she used a broken Chinese-English accent.  Bottom 2 were Stacy Lane Matthews and India Ferrah. Tsugi si India Ferrah. dapat lang kasi sobrang bland ng personality nya. Stacy Lane naman, one of the plus-size beauties, is showing more and more personality as the season goes. sobrang okray kasi sya sa ibang contestant porke she came from Back Swamp, North Carolina na pangalan pa nga lang naman eh promding-promdi na. but i like her coz she's nice and showing potential.

episode 4 was the Totally Leotarded video exercise challenge. the ladies were also grouped into 2 teams to do their own exercise video.  the girls were judged individually though and Alexis Mateo from Petersburgh, Florida, won.  bottom 2 for ep3 were India Ferrah and the absurdly crazy Mimi Imfurst. lurkey ang "Lip sync for your Life" segment nila coz Mimi resorted to a weird gimmick of lifting India just to impress the judges. eh mas lalong na-turnoff si RuPaul who told her "Drag is not a contact sport!" ayun tsugi ang Mimi.

episode 3 is one of my favorites: Drag Queens in Outer Space! as the title says, the queens did a trailer for a space-themed movie, again in 2 groups. the winning team was Team Mariah, with the TwinBots Shangela and Alexis Mateo winning the challenge. they each received breast plates from BoobsforQueens.com. yun ang dream ng dragzilla, to get those silicone breast plates worth $600-$700! any sponsors there? hehe

bottom 2 were Phoenix and Delta Work who lip synched to Lady Gaga's Bad Romance. tsugi si Phoenix.

episode 2, which is technically the 1st official episode, presented the 12 contestants who made it after the auditions.  the twist is, may plus 1, si shangela from season 2 who was the first to sashay away.  but because of her potentials, she made it again and rupaul gave her another shot.

the main challenge was drag christmas so the girls came out on the runway wearing their christmas couture. bottom 2 were Venus D-Lite and Shangela!!! Nakakaloka dahil shangela again found herself on the bottom 2 for the first season episode. buti na lang nagkalat si venus d-lite like hinagis yung wig nya, tinutulak-tulak si shangela, while the latter focused on her performance. ayun, tsugi si venus.

Shangela, crayola na lang munti kasi ma-tsugi again
