'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars': Was the right queen eliminated in season 3 premiere 'All-Star Variety Show'? [POLL]
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 3 kicks off on Comedy Central on 27 January at 10pm, and continues in the USA every Thursday on VH1.
After surprising fans as the mystery 10th queen in the competition, Season 1 victor BeBe Zahara Benet immediately shook up the game. After watching the season 3 premiere and catching our breath, Billboard Pride Editor Patrick Crowley and Deputy Editor, Digital Joe Lynch locked the doors and had a quick kiki about our feelings. It's All Stars and we know the game and we know what's up. After the judging, Aja and Ben turn out to be top two, and Chi Chi and Morgan get bottom two.
Joe: Trixie's roller skate thing was a gimmick but I love gimmicks, and I also love that it's SO Wisconsin.
Morgan McMichaels, who I was never a fan of in her original season, of course decides to open her big mouth up again and say that she would send the strongest queen home if she had the opportunity to.
Patrick: Speaking of Morgan, her entrance line was *everything* - there were rumors she had died previous year, so good on her for playing into that. I would be eliminating the strongest girl in the bottom two, and you never know who's going to be there.
Patrick: Aw, I actually thought it was a cute moment for her.
I don't think anything went wrong at all. She's known for these outside-the-box looks and I wish she had done something even more weird. That's how I was raised and that's how I live. Should we talk about the mysterious tenth queen reveal?
Joe: Yes! So weird. She also famously dated All Stars 2 victor Alaska.
Victor of season 8, this Brooklyn queen (who performs frequently throughout New York) challenges the gender binary with her interesting name. Also, sorry for saying 'taint'.

I always say we can progress in any competition, in this case in the FA Cup , if we have the squad strong enough to compete. Dzeko can then start the February 12 game against West Bromwich Albion while Morata rests.

South Africa 69-1 vs. India as play continues in 3rd test
On a wicket that a number of players in this Test have described as the toughest they have ever played on, Kohli has been superb. However, things took a risky turn towards the end of the day as Dean Elgar was struck on the helmet off a delivery from Bumrah.
Morgan took a risk in the variety show, choosing to lip sync along to a song she recorded called Why You Mad Tho? - something she'd never done before. That was not the grand entrance I'd expect from Miss Zahara Benet; but maybe it's a strategy?
Having the reading challenge in the first episode is truly a gift from god (Jasmine Masters). You have to read between the lines with Ru. It's insane how far drag has come in the last 10 years, in no small part because of this show.
Patrick: Absolutely! But then BeBe's look during the main challenge was stunning! Not that much of a shock that Trixie Mattel was first to enter the room (I feel some major foreshadowing coming). When she jumped off that block I was so anxious about her smashing her head on it. Lip syncing is a requirement for drag queens, so using that as a "talent" seemed like a cop-out. Trixie and Thorgy were the most exciting for me. But Aja was so good I didn't care.
Vanessa Hudgens saying "I'm so into vogueing right now" got one of the biggest laughs of the night at the viewing I attended. Alas, she felt free to share her strategy of kicking off the strongest competitor with the entire workroom and they didn't like what they heard.
Brooklyn-bred Sasha won last season and has become iconic in the drag community for her unique brows and etherial presence. That's how I wanted to play the game and that's how I think I would have done it. But Milk's song was stupid too!
So the variety show happens, and the ones that stand out are truly the ones who don't dance.
Who would I have put in the bottom two? This week's victor, Ben BenDeLaCreme, picked who was sent packing - and chose McMichaels, after Morgan said she'd personally eliminate the strongest competition instead of the weakest performance of the week. And the way that Morgan was stirring the pot... And I would love to have seen one of the trans girls, like Sonique or Jiggly, but they're all so busy, they're all touring, but I would have liked to have seen one of the girl girls.
Honestly, I'm not surprised at all. A well deserved win. I would have sent me home if I was looking at it from Ben's position. But she has a lot of tricks up those sleeves. Who are your early predictions for top three? This cast isn't the majority of season 5 like last cast was, which I found to be ridiculously one-sided and part of what made the end of the season so frustrating as Detox and Alaska kept saving Roxxxy even though we all knew she didn't belong there.
More to the point: She established herself as a front-runner, as a person to beat, as a likely top-three contender, a fierce competitor-multitalented, unpredictable, great on her feet, and amusing.
