RuPaul's Drag Race Holi-Slay Spectacular

I know Christmas is all about the cheese, ugly sweaters, bad movies and dad jokes, but this is taking it WAY too far. I hate how fully curated and scripted the whole thing was, and it doesn't at all reflect what I really love about the show, what a shame...

I was expecting something rather special from this, especially with the announcement of the incredibly talented queens scheduled to feature, but the end result was just disappointing. It was a heavily scripted, cheesy, and boring advertisement for RuPaul's new Christmas album....and not a very good Christmas album. We are left wondering what they did with the 'magic' that makes the regular series episodes so fabulously entertaining, and not only that, it seems to strip away all but a smidgen of festive cheer. And then comes the RuPaul and Michelle Visage lip-sync... with RuPaul looking incredibly wooden, and Michelle seemingly recreating Charlie Hides disastrous lipsync from season 9. With a lipsync performance that bad, the queens must be questioning if these two are fit to judge lipsync performances. In all, this spectacular was a mess. It didn't dazzle, it didn't entertain, and it didn't Slay!

Terribly cheesy from start to end and not in a good way!!! The whole episode was just a weird plug for Rupaul's album! No genuine work shop chat from the queens or any competition, instead just low quality lip syncs!

Don't waste 40 mins on this rubbish!

Shameful cash in on the drag race brand pointless and makes a mockery of the queen come on Ru don't lower yourself to the tacky special

This holiday special was just so past nonsensical, it bordered on stupidity. A shame, considering the talented cast.

It was confusing and dry. Then "Michelle" & "RuPaul" lip sync...? Was it meant to be funny??? Were we meant to be fooled???

Judge for yourself, but this special really didn't live up to any of the hype.
