The finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race is almost always a little bit of a, well, drag. After a season of carefully planned out challenges, rivalries, and makeup mirror breakdowns, the final episode is generally a lot of filler when most of us just want to see who won already. Last year, I didn’t even watch, just checked Twitter when it was over. And while stay-at-home orders made the RuPaul’s Drag Race finale a bit less grand than previous years, the homemade campiness of the season’s final episode was a stripped-down look at what actually makes the show good—the ingenuity of the queens themselves and the charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent of its creators.\n

is almost always a little bit of a, well, drag. After a season of carefully planned out challenges, rivalries, and makeup mirror breakdowns, the final episode is generally a lot of filler when most of us just want to see who won already. Last year, I didn’t even watch, just checked Twitter when it was over.

And joining the finale from her nightclub-lit living room, Jaida Essence Hall was the most snatched anyone has ever been in front of an Ikea curtain. Her face, framed by a perfect waterfall of a wig, golden rings around her neck, and tassel earrings was absolutely beautiful and nearly filled her entire Zoom box, a smart move for stealing a show that would be determined, in part, by an extreme close-up lip-synch.

After a completely predictable shocker in which Ru let all three queens move to the final round coupled with a real shocker—a delightful surprise appearance from mine and Nina West’s shared mother Dolly Parton in which my sweet angel Heida was rightfully declared Miss Congeniality, we finally got down to the business of picking a winner. The final lip-synch was a three-way, full-body performance of Destiny’s Child’s “Survivor,” which, in my opinion, came down to wardrobe choices.
