RuPaul's Drag Race Recap - Scent Of A Queen

Just so we are clear, if you don't like Aubrey O'Day you can get out. Like right now. Oh lord. You can expect to see a lot of fanboying for her in this review. I'll try and keep it classy. Try.

Is anybody else still steamed for last week? I usually have the unpopular opinion, so I'll go out on a ledge and say that you are all still relieved. Obviously Alyssa won that lip sync battle, but I guess it's time to move on.

As they all walk back into the work room, Roxxxy goes on to explain even more. Girl stop talking about it, it sounds more and more fake every time you bring it up. She did apologize to Jinkx for being rude.

Alaska continues to bitch about not winning a challenge. She is the only one who hasn't won anything yet, and Coco rubs it in her face that she won, despite not deserving it what so ever. This season is so full of shade!

BUT WHO CARES BECAUSE AUBREY MUTHAFUGGIN O'DAY IS A GUEST JUDGE YAAAS!

Yaaaas!

Ru walks in for the mini challenge, and brings out the pit crew -- or moreso the extended pit crew. Over twenty men pop in, along with legendary Andrew Christian. The girls have to play a game called "Whatcha Packin". They have to match these boy's underwear. Whoever does it fastest gets the win. This game was made for me. These boys are BEAUTIFUL!

I like my men to have a little ink. Feelin' Mr. 9.

Most of them ended up distracted, but when it came time to announce the winner, he faked us out by saying everyone won. But in reality it was Ivy. She won a phone call home to her mother.

Ru goes on to talk about the main challenge, which is about creating and marketing a signature fragrance. They have to make the scent, a package, and a full on commercial. This season just keeps getting crazier and crazier.

Now for the workroom drama segment! And instantly we are taken to Alaska "I haven't won a challenge yet". Who cares? That just means your first up to go home. I hate throwing shade like that, but she's said it over and over and over and over and over. We also get to see a rare tidbit of Ivy and Jinkx becoming better friends. They aren't exactly helping each other out, but they are keeping each other motivated.

Ru's rounds in the work room were not good for anyone. Everybody seemed to have a flop name and a flop idea. Let's hope his pep talk changed their minds.

Oh and Ru reminds us that AUBREY MUTHAFUGGIN O'DAY IS A GUEST JUDGE YAAAAS!

YAAAAAAAS!

Now it's time for the main challenge! Yay! Aubrey is here to watch them film. Jinkx is up first, looking pretty hot for the first time this season, even with a flash of camp in there. They had a problem with her over raunchy commercial. Ivy didn't even get the city where she was going to be right. Coco, came out in an outfit we've seen before... Oh that's right. She is being a second class Bebe from season one. She's even trying to put on the voice. Why didn't anyone clock this?

No really. That is Coco pretending to be Bebe pretending to be Ru.

The best part of everything was Aubrey's comments. Seriously. Actually, it was more so her face. Seriously, I took like seven screen caps of her faces. I couldn't help myself. Here's one. LOVE HER!

Both Detox and Alyssa were not in either judge's favor. Roxxxy had no idea what she was doing. Alaska got the only good word in from Aubrey, and she's winning over Michelle. She is starting to step up her game, I just wish she wasn't so annoying.

They all go back into the work room, and it cuts right back to Alaska complaining. She pulls out a book of pictures of her drag family, showing us a more human and less obnoxious view of this girl. Maybe I can lighten up on her.

The big shock comes with Jinkx coming right out and saying she has a crush on Ivy, but it cuts quickly and awkwardly to the runway.

First up is Coco. Her look is very 70s meets 50s animal print. The hair is so awkward, but the open back was gorgeous.
Alaska is finally showing us something new! I actually lik this look for her. Finally she is giving us something new and I'm digging it.
Ivy comes out looking like a real girl. I don't know if this works for her favor, but she looks beautiful!
Detox has the most high fashion look with a see through amazing dress that you can see the sexy nighty underneath.
Alyssa comes out looking like a Dynasty 80s girl. I am in LOVE with that hair!
Jinkx comes out in a weird looking getup. I don't understand the fur, or the skirt's split.
Roxxxy comes out in another skin tight suit. Not impressed.

Nobody freak out but there is a picture of Alaska on TOTU.

All of the commercials are a hot mess, honestly, all except Alaska. As much as I don't care for her, she pulled it out this week. A close second would have to be Detox, who inspired a lot of laughs. As for the rest of them, they missed the mark, sad to say. All of the judges liked Jinkx this week, but even if she's one of my faves, she just didn't work me this week. This elimination could be anybody.

Alaska obviously takes home the win, and she desrved it. Ivy is put in the bottom (!?) with Alyssa. In the end, Alyssa wins the lip sync, proving once again she's got loads and loads of talent. Sadly, Ivy Winters is sent packing.
