RuPaul's Drag Race Recap: Nontroversy

RuPaul's Drag Race, Episode 3: "Draggle Rock"

The "feud" between former pageant queens, Coco Montrese and Alyssa Edwards, finally came to a head on Monday night's episode of RuPaul's Drag Race.  As expected, the feud was pretty pathetic.  So, initially, Alyssa was Miss Gay America.  For some reason or another, Alyssa wasn't able to fulfill her duties so Coco took over.  No one ever elaborated on what duties Alyssa wasn't fulfilling.  She seemed to be upset that Coco, who was her first alternate, took over for her and that Coco was trash talking her on Facebook.  Ugh.  Seriously?  Who cares?  How old are these people?  So dumb.  It seemed to be taking a big toll on Coco though.  She could not focus and you knew from the start of the episode that she was in big trouble.

The mini challenge had the queens taking mini mannequins and turning them into pageant queens.  Of course, Coco and Alyssa thought they had this in the bag, but they were two of the worst.  The winner of the mini challenge, was the team of Lineysha Sparx and Alaska who presented their pageant queen, Lil' Pound Cake.  I was howling along with Ru as Alaska shared Lil' Pound Cake's catch phrase of, "You aren't my real dad and you never will be."  I was wiping away tears after I learned that "Lil' Pound Cake enjoys riding dirty and being a motherfucking dick pig."  

So, it's another team challenge, with Lineysha and Alaska as team leaders.  The main challenge was to create a children's television show that was educational and subversive.  This was a rough challenge.  It was a great idea, but once the teams were divided something became glaringly obvious.  A lot of these queens are resting on pretty and it is not going to win them the competition.  

Team Alaska consisted of Roxxxy, Detox, Alyssa, Vivienne, and Monica.  They produced a farm show called "Barnyard Buddies."  Detox and Roxxxy were the standouts.  Detox as Clucky the Cock who was trying to shove things in her different sized boxes and Roxxxy as Tasha Salad, a walking salad with a speech impediment who was teaching kids all about salad tossing.  The weak links were Vivian Pinay, whose Anita Bump barely registered, and Monica Beverly Hillz, who couldn't remember  her lines even though they were right in front of her.

Then, there was Team Lineysha.  I can't even remember what the name of their show was it was so awful.  The only reason their team was a little bit watchable was because of Jinkx Monsoon.  Ivy Winters and Lineysha tried to suggestively make a banana split, but it failed, especially with Lineysha repeating everything in Spanish.  Jade Jolie didn't make much of an impression with her bubbles and the less said about Coco and Honey Mahogany's disastrous dummy act the better.

On the main stage, Detox, Roxxxy, and Jinkx were in the top with Detox taking the win.  Alaska was read for not being in drag for the challenge.  Coco and Monica ended up in the bottom.  Monica ended up sashaying away.

So, what did you guys think?  Do these queens think being fishy is all that it takes?  Sound off in the comments.
