Vanity’s reaction when she learned she was winning money! 😂

Whats crazy about icesis isnt just the fact that she won. But that she won LAST YEAR

I LOVE how u started cussing immediately when Silky walked out GIRL SAME 😂😂😂 I’m so moved that Vanity made a huge impact the 1st episode she deserves it!! Miss Scone is everything but #TeamMelanin ALL THE WAY!!!

What Silky meant is that in the drag race fandom the girls of color are mistreated on the daily and not celebrated as fiercely as the white queens are. Silky was dragged through the mud on her season by the fandom and so was Rajah. From death threats and racist comments to getting their gigs canceled etc. It wasn't until AS6 that people started liking Silky and Rajah.

my top two this episode was vanity and icesis/rajah but congrats to rita for getting a win

Silky lives at the intersection of having to endure racism & fatphobia, the fan base has not been kind to her 🤧 black queens definitely have to work much harder to get the same recognition as white queens, and fat + black queens have to work even harder than that 😩 I get what silky means! Great review Val! Loving your content as always! 💜💜

yesss BANG! omg and that lip combo is everythingg

I’m rooting for Vanity , Silky and Raja to win

I kinda like Rita's lipsync just because it was giving old lady trying to get her groove back vibes. lol

valery, LOOKING GORGEOUS TODAY!!! 👑 imo rajah should have been top 2 with vanity but overall, VANITY ATE THE ENTIRE EPISODE!!! that $10k was well deserved

I love your channel so much 😂❤

Personally I'm rooting for the melanin trio! Miss Vanity, Miss Rajah and Miss Silky are killing it and I'm rooting for this top 3. Miss Vanity's glow up from her season is INSANE. I'm all for these three!

SRV are my fav so far!

This First Episode Was Good But The Judging Was The VERY VERY Incorrect The Black Girl Magic Team Was Clearly The Best Them Forcing Rita Being In The Top Was Weird Because Her Look Was A Ten But Her Performance Was A 7 Kendall Going Home First Was The Only Thing They Got Correct Vanity Winning This Episode Was So Cathartic

just wanted to say that you look absolutely stunning as always

Icesis and Silky murdered me with their runways! Vanity is a gorgeous performer! And Anita's energy gives me everything I need! Sad to see Kendall though...

Basically was writing for this ❤. A comment for the algorithm 🥰🥰🥰🥰

16:35 I 100% agree with you

your hair looks amazing Val !! cmon with the bangs girl

Lol Canada 2 and 3, and Down Under 1 are the only seasons I haven’t watched so I really don’t know half of these girls😂 excited to see what they can do❤

Also I’m pretty sure icesis came back cause at the time the rumors were going around saying that if you weren’t crowned by Rupaul then you can’t be on all winners and season 2 even tho it was good it wasn’t the most viewed season

I think Silkys point about girls of color being celebrated was not necessarily about herself and her current standing, even for her she had to do a lot of work to get her 10s as with other girls (white twinks) they get there dues straight out the gate….but she had to work OVERTIME for hers and for the new black girls, nobody sees it for them until they do something undeniable.. Hope this made sense.

I love your content and reactions Kisses from Brazil 💜💚

i was actually shocked kendall went home first oh well, i have been enjoying silkys looks, i am looking forward to icesis runway WALK it’s so pussy😩💓

This episode was sooo FRICKING GOODDDDDD like oh my god AND TEAM ICESISSSSSS

I sprayed my coffee wen you said "she's out here protecting the borders" DEAD

Brooklyn’s new face said: 🗿

#TeamSilky ❤️

Umm can we talk about how drop dead gorgeous you look in this thumbnail!? Breathtaking 🤩

I'm hoping to see Valery on Matty Rant's Panel sometime

Early gang

16:16 Now Valery you know damn well a black queen will have half the followers for no reason other than “preferences”. The Black queens that are celebrated have already a high level of excellence. Her point is that By being white you automatically are given more light regardless of your level of drag. This makes a difference for someone to be growing and becoming better. Only a select few of black queens overcome that and grow regardless of being supported from the get go or not. Symone for example,who is huge now, was literally the least followed in her little group she has with Gigi and her looks have always been giving and she was working just as hard as the rest. It’s just an example. Even Gigi was given more opportunities than Jaida and they both eat.

Hold on. Can we not forget how gorge Valery looks in this reaction? Period!

I mean if I won a 12 episode season and then was offered the same prize money for 6 episodes??? (More including the lipsyncs) Sign me up. If rajah or Icesis doesn’t win it’s rigged

GURL !!!! Rajah's entrance look ???? What was that ??? HIDEOUS !!! On the Runway once again Rajah's look was not even near a " Queen of the World". . Silky's look was AMAZING. SHE was Queen of the World.

you’re eating with the bangs, okkkk!

Yaaaas 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

so good

I mean this with no shade, just more so insightful. Silky should’ve just said “black queens who have lived the black queen experience” bc we understood as a whole without going into depth. That moment was between two Black queens so the need to over explain to one another was obsolete; if that gives some perspective as to why it wasn’t said in a way for you to grasp immediately. ❤

Before the premiere, my top 4 was Kendall, Ra'Jah, Silky and Anita, but now I'm just loving to see Vanity and Victoria again, rooting for them to go all the way to top 5 💜 (and also someone is gonna have replace legend Kenny)

Valery you are stunning!

Stephanie didn't even struggle or did bad in the challenge(so did Kendall) and her runways are better than Kendall so I think Vanity did the right choice

Rita definitly dont deserve that win, for sure.

Silky has spoken a lot over the years about the fan reception of her versus some of her white classmates after her season. People did treat Silky really negatively after her season

Rita really impressed me. She was already good in her season but she's grown even MORE. Also very curious to see what Icesis is gonna bring.

Stephanie got eliminated on episode 3 I luvvved her runways, but she didn’t really have anything to offer but omfg her Dorothy, and the haute couture one.

Icesis got them All Stars lips

Luv luv luv Vanity ❤ she is the lipsync assassin okay xoxo 😘 Valéry thanks for your rucap 🎉

I am happy to see Icesis again, but of course, there are other girls who I would’ve liked to have seen get another chance. But maybe Icesis is replacing someone who couldn’t make it. On a totally unrelated note, Trinity K Bonet is free of monkey pox now. I sure hope it didn’t inconvenience her too much. Like preventing her from doing certain projects or appearances and someone having to fill in for her…..

The judging this episode was so confusing to me 😭 I thought Victoria, Icesis, Rajah, and Vanity did the best and they should’ve been in the top! & I would’ve put Rita and Anita in the bottom 😭💀💀 No one had a bad verse but done were more memorable and flowed better than others! 💜 Also I’m sad to see Kendall go so soon, she was such a powerhouse on her season, I wanted to see more

Freeze me, Icesis!!! 💙✨

double crowning, us takes home 2 more crowns PLEASE! it’s time for silky and rajah to win, plus a win together?! iconic.

I’m pretty sure icesis had to compete due to her contract.

First lemon then kendall going home first damn.

team rita anita and victoria were my fav...they were my winning group

In Canada Drag Race s2, Kendall has been in top 3 and had a very medium race. In the other hand Stephanie had a early elim because she was murder by the lip sync assassin of the season. The both did ok, but would pick Kendall lipstick too, cause Kendall FOR ME already show her much, expect her in all star canada in 2-3 years. Also think Anita deserved the bottom 2 more than Kendall.

#teamrajah Btw you look stunning werkk

Touche group really hit the nail on the head, very smart to include audience interaction too which I think elevated all three of them in the final decisions. Individually I think Vanity had the strongest solo performance in the challenge, followed by Rita as she went very diverse with her comedy that played to her strengths. On the runway, it's a tough call between Icesis and Silky, but if I were to pick between which garment I personally liked better I would give it to Silky. Lip sync started off very strong for Vanity, but I actually think that Rita had a strong comeback, strong enough to actually throw Vanity off. Very, very close but personally I think Rita just managed to edge it slightly by the end, but both did a good job so can understand the win whichever way it went. Anita's runway was quite weak this episode, but I think being in the group that did so well collectively is what allowed her to be safe this week. The runway isn't her strength though, but she's witty and has a lovely personality so I hope the comedy can serve her well but she's got competition with Rita in that department straight off the bat.

Anita ate the girls up on snatch game down under season 1

Personally for me - Anita & Stephanie were the weakest of the night. Anita's lyrics and their group performance was the lowest of the 3, but Anita's dress did not hit the "Queen of the World" brief. Seeing her entrance look + runway, I was like uhoh we need more. Then if it was Stephanie vs Anita, I would of still kept Stephanie. Kendall I know has gooood looks, but she was not the worst. Well.. Vanity took the chance to remove competition and help her move forward. Its a smart move and a competition.

I love Kendall but the hem of her pants legs and the little bit of ankle skin showing above her boots was unforgivable lol. Vanity still should have sent home Stephanie if going by who did the worst 😢

I think they should have judged them in teams, with Rita's team being safe. Anita didn't do bad at all, although her look was very underwhelming. Vanity and Ra'jah were clearly the top 2, but let's face it, Vanity's look was hideous. That seam in the bottom half of the dress, the crown around her head... That's what I hate about this show. When they want someone to succeed, the judges act like they did no wrong at all. Come on, people can hit, miss and still be the best of the night.

You should watch Canada S2 only for one queen PYTHIA. She’s iconic

Im glad Kendall went first cuz shes really the one i was the least interested for💀 shes so…meh. They really said it best in the episode, the 10% is supposed to make u different from the others. where is it?

Vickie Guerrero and Rita? 😭

My take on this is yes, track record and how you do in the competition should be the determining factor of who to send home, but at episode 1 where you just met these queens and there's no track record to consider, it is smart to keep either 1) weakest link or strongest competition, 2) which queen NEEDED more screen time and deserve to show more, 3) which queen could represent their country more. I think it's right that Stephanie should stay, arguably she has the better verse and outfit. + not only was her run on her original season cut short, but she was also able to show that she has more to offer based on her looks and all. Lastly, she represents more people than Kendall does.

Why would you wanna come back? Answer is quite simple. Because she wants to. There really isn't a algebreic answer to this, and it's not as hard of a concept to grasp. Why do Big Brother and Survivor past winners agree to come back to an All Stars season? They got the call, they were interested, they wanted to, there they are. I really don't understand why fans find that so hard to understand.

I just don’t understand why reaction channels choose to talk while the episode is still playing in the background ?? Makes me so anxious cus I WANT to hear your opinion so bad but you could potentially be missing out on a good part of the episode. Just PAUSE it, speak, then resume. Love your content it’s just getting annoying

1st comment!!!

You can tell Silky is really feeling a way about having to hear Brooke judge her. But shes keeping it cute. And I dont blame her. Although Brooklyn is great, she has been in the drag scene for as long as Silky and lets be real Silky would be a great judge as well. She just commands a stage.

Completely agree with what u said about the race situation, It feels quite odd to bring that up and even odder to determine who your voting off due to their race. I feel like it is unfair and quite bizarre. I personally don't understand the 'representation' thing either. There are plentyyyy of asian queens and seasons with only asian queens (Philippines and Thailand) I don't understand at all. Personally. Don't attack me.

You don’t know Anita but you will respect Anita. She is a QUEEN with talent. Thank you next.

Tr..uh..nny?

I think Silky is talking about Chicago where she lives which really struggles with diverse cast prior to 2020
