![]() I don’t blame anyone for this, least of all Kandy (since it’s very possible she never said what Heidi accused her of), but I truly wish it hadn’t happened. It’s just bad television, and it results in one of the only queens who felt like a real threat to win this season going out in a non-gameplay elimination. Even Alexis collapsing into one of her melodramatic crying jags can’t make this mess entertaining. It’s remarkably unsatisfying to watch play out, as the conflict-which is largely off-camera!-comes to a head quickly and burns out just as fast. To call this “abrupt” is an understatement. Then, she changes her mind: “We don’t even have to vote tonight.” She leaves the room, and after a couple of quick exchanges with Kandy and LaLa Ri, leaves the competition. Heidi tells the other queens to vote her out later that day, because she doesn’t like this energy. Mo bit back: “Aren’t you dead?” This gave us Monét’s signature moment in the challenge: “Like dust, still I rise.” Is she a bit mean-spirited about it? Maybe, but so was Monét X Change as Maya Angelou when she took a dig at Mo Heart’s Maxine Waters. I personally take Heidi’s side in this: she’s clearly just trying to get typical Snatch Game banter going, and it’s not her fault Kahanna can’t rally. She insists she didn’t mean anything harmful by it, and insists she would never try to sabotage Kahanna. She argues that Heidi is kicking her while she’s down-how is she supposed to banter when she can’t even rally with Ru? When she confronts Heidi about this in the workroom, Heidi is shocked and upset by it. Heidi razzes her about her poor performance, trying to get some banter going by giving her a map and telling her to find the joke. It’s actually a bizarre impression for someone’s drag daughter to do of them, considering how tightly focused it is on one TV moment of Coco’s. Kahanna’s Coco is dreadful, all jokes about looking orange and angrily reacting. (It is, however, a bit silly.)ĭuring the Snatch Game of Love, Heidi-as-Blackbeard the Pirate (yes, you read that right) plays alongside Jessica Wild as Iris Chacón, Jaymes Mansfield as Jennifer Coolidge, and, most crucially to this story, Kahanna Montrese as her drag mother, Coco Montrese. It’s actually another conflict that leads us there-but this one is much less aggravating. Kandy heard about this from Jimbo, and vehemently denied it, but it doesn’t spill out into the open until after Snatch Game. ![]() Apparently, Heidi told Jimbo that what Kandy told her, off-camera, was that they would need to eliminate Jimbo when they had the chance. ![]()
