It's LaLaPaRuZa week! And the theme is reusing songs we've already seen be lip syncs previously. Kayla and I will give our opinions on the lip syncs and compare them to the previous versions, deciding which is ultimately better!

In a very special episode of RuPaul's Drag Race, we watched the eliminated queens lip sync in a tournament for a $50,000 cash prize. In what's being rated as the top episode ever, we saw stunts, flips, shocking moments, and some amazing redemption arcs. Kayla and I will dive into every lip sync, give our thoughts, and of course ask the question: IS IT RIGGED?!

In one of the most amazing lip syncs of the season, we saw Morphine ANNIHILATE Dawn in the lip sync battle. With a chaotic episode filled with bathroom jokes, hell, Pit Crew boners, German club owners, and a seething Q, there's a lot to get through. As always, we'll be giving out Cold Cases and Closed Cases and ask the age old question, IS IT RIGGED???

It's top 5 and there's a special wedding to attend between Michelle Visage and Graham Norton! As the queens give their wedding speeches and rock their wedding dress couture, we find out the 4 queens making it to the finale, establish some new frontrunners for the win, and try to determine who the winner of the season might be. As always, we'll be giving out Cold Cases and Closed Cases and ask the age old question, IS IT RIGGED???

Another episode of Season 16, another episode of watching the slow decline of Q's sanity as she is "robbed" of yet another win (in her eyes). We'll break down the chaotic powerpoint maxi challenge, talk about our high school superlatives, descend into madness ourselves, and as always, we'll be giving out Cold Cases and Closed Cases and ask the age old question, IS IT RIGGED???

It's time to PRANCE MY QUEENS, PRANCE (strictly come style) on UK Vs the World. The queens are split into 3 groups of 2 and each given a different style of dance to perform to. We also get the mixed bag of the "Business in the front, Party in the back" runway, and some major disagreements between Matthew and Derek this week on performance. As always, we'll be giving out Cold Cases and Closed Cases and ask the age old question, IS IT RIGGED???
