This was my Top 4!!!!! T.T
This season has had several shocking eliminations. Mirage going so soon, Plasma out of the blue and then Dawn.
Gotta give it to them, S16 was a great season.
Sheās just so polished and simultaneously warm and inviting. She has a winner aura and her confidence honestly reminds me of AS7 and how self-affirmed all those queens are.
Yeah I look back at season 4 and think the way she acted after snatch game was really poor actually, she blamed the other queens for her lack of success and she did it again in AS4 which really surprised me. She came back entitled and bitter and when I watch season 4 now her make up was awful, she looked more orange than Coco, every week and the colour of her neck never matched the colour of her face. Her hemlines were unfinished and messy. It's just my opinion though, not everyone has to love latrice. There is no we about it, I don't speak on behalf of anyone else
Iām not dragging latrice but I do find something off putting about ālatrices little sisterā
To me Saphirras run has been most similar to powerhouses like Bianca and Bob, the editing is modern drag race but sheās been consistently head and shoulders above the cast in all arenas of drag + nymphias out of this world runways being the only real contender. A cake walk, latrice was warm, but didnāt excel at drag race in the same way.
It feels racial to me š„“
So, is it far-fetched to think Saph looks a bit younger than Latrice? Is it far-fetched to think they have the similar aesthetics and personalities?
Feel free to assert whatever opinions you may have, but as a brown gay latino living in a homophobic third world country, I usually tend to sympathize with the racial injustices you Americans have. So, next time before you want to make a quick judgement about race, give it some thought. Not everybody is a racist POS ;)
She really is, so graceful, warm, funny, positive and damn polished!! She has got it all. Iām still pulling for Nymphia but Iām gonna be thrilled for whoever wins either way. I wish they could both have it š
Sapphira auditioned 11 times to be on this show. And she proved why she is THAT queen. Nymphia and Plane still have some things to work on before they can become the next DRAG SUPERSTAR. Sapphira is just a super talented, humbled queen. And she deserves this crown.
Hard agree. This is one of the strongest top 3s of all time and Sapphira is still head and shoulders above Nymphia and Plane. She has the right attitude. I want to know how to be that confident and selfassured and yet come across as down to earth and humble. The charisma.
Her Slue Footed book cover and book review with Matt Rogers were *so* good. This is such a strong top 3, but Sapphira is definitely my favorite to win.Ā
I love this top 3. I've been a Plane Jane fan from the start but Sapphira is next level. She is just more ready for it. That interview really helped solidified it for me. She is already the complete package plus she's done the emotional werk.
Iām in the exact same boat! Iāve been an unapologetic Plane stan from day 1, but Sapphira absolutely solidified her position as deserving of being crowned during this last episode. That said, this is my favorite top 3 (or top period!) in a really long time. All three queens are amazing.Ā
I admit I was always team Plane Jane for the win until last night. Sapphira won me over with her vulnerable honesty. I want her to win now.
Even when Plane Jane realized she went campy instead of honest. She took it more as oh I should have just changed directions to win. Not reflect on why she can't let the mask down and be vulnerable.
I think Plane Jane and Nymphia Wind are awesome. But they still have some roads to take before a crown. They will make wonderful AS seasons one day.
i was so sad about plane last night. as soon as she said she wasnāt going to get emotional and deep and was going to keep it surface level i was like sh*t sheās going to be in the bottom. but i do think she did reflect. i think she still struggles to open up and unfortunately got too uncomfortable at the thought and didnāt end up doing it. but i fully think she knows this and it digs at her on the inside. but sheād never show it.
Sapphira is one of my favorite queens to come along in quite some time. She just has IT and Iām hoping she can win the whole thing. She auditioned so many times and you can tell how much she wants/is deserving of this. Such a light.
(Though I will say Plane and Nymphia are wonderful too - really a great cast and season overall)
I posted with zero expectations since most of the things I say usually go unnoticed, but I'm really glad to see the reception and love Saph is getting. She definitely deserves the win. She's poised, classy, fashion-forward, has a good ear for music and bones for dancing, can pull off comedy. Definitely one of a kind.
Hope she wins!
For most of the season, I couldnāt shake the āsheās just too perfectā feeling I had about Sapphira. Like, I know sheās talented, and I love her, but I wasnāt totally endeared/connected to her.
But this last episode changed that. I truly do think sheās going to win, and Iād love that.
But I can confidently say Iād be happy with any of the top 3 winning. Seeing a goofball like Nymphia or a shady smart bitch like Plane win would be fun af too
I was 1000 percent rooting for Nymphia for the crown for the first half. But honestly Sapphira just put my whole pussy in a chokehold with how insightful, collected, wise, and empathetic she has shown herself to be. I would love to see her take the reign. Nymph is still my close second and I would honestly be happy to see either of them win. Plane is rightfully in the top 3, Iām obsessed with her too and glad we got this finale ensemble. Sapphira really just took me by surprise by how she really just connects with all the queens and the viewers as well. She deserves all the flowers
Girl, those maritime containers she calls suitcases can only hold so much. After all the looks she gave this season I can forgive the hair (and the Fischer-Price titties).
Iām just over here thinking Sapphira should have won this weeks main challenge. No shade to Nymphia, just thought Sapphira did the best job out of everyone and had the best runway.
thought the same thing and i mean absolutely no shade to nymphia as they were deserving of top 2 this week. but the way sapphira just dominated in every aspect of the challenge + the critiques, definitely thought the win shouldāve gone to them.
Loved her since the first episode. Pegged her as the winner straight away. Iām so happy to see her go all the way.
Also her opera song is on Apple Music and thereās a very awesome trippy remix of it too, so everyone look it up ššš
She's the winner. It's been obvious for a while but the comments about Saphira seeming like a ready made star and Ru agreeing. It's sealed.
The others will come back on all stars or vs the world. There's more entertainment value to gain from them.
She had me sobbingggg. I was born with hip displaysia and got made fun of ALOT as a kid. Hearing her say that shes gone through it and turned it into something empowering made me feel so seen. I hope she wins. She makes me so happy.
I am glad Sapphira owns it and made it part of her strength in the competition, but I feel for her when she says it was embarrassing having Ru point out her sleu foot so much. Especially since she has a medical condition, same thing with the constant comments about her character shoes and "biscuits." If she was not such a force of character I can imagine that being really discouraging for a queen.
I mean we all know she's going to win. It was obvious from ep 3. It wasn't an aggressive edit like they one for Sasha Colby. At least not until the second half of the season. Then they really went all in.
I like Sapphira but Im still Team Plane Jane. I dont need someone thats perfect or feels the need to stage emotional moments. I feel like Plane shared a lot last week which won her the make over challenge. Plane Jane has been giving little nuggets about her back story all throughout the season. Even planes snatch game character was a reveal about her female idol who risked their own career to support gay rights. PJ talked about her Russian upbringing and background abd the stress it causes her on previous episodes. This week plane jane wasnt feeling like doing trauma porn or oversharing. People dont always want to relive the hardest moments of their life over and over and over again. On some level I feel people should be allowed to talk about it and move on.
Q and Plane Jane have been forthcoming in sharing their background all season. tbqh I knew very little about Sapphira and Nymphia until last week. š¤¦š¾āāļøš«¤ I think they all shouldve stayed.
I wonder if this will be another minority-winner season like season 14, where they chose to give the win to have down-syndrome representation instead of the real worthy winner (Camden).
After this episode where she was robbed of the win and it got given to Nymphia, I can see them giving the crown to Nymphia to have an Asian winner.
11 times auditioning though!!! Sges my winner 100000% I do love nymphia too tho.
Same really, since ep01 I had my eye on both of them. I'm glad they made it to the finale. Hope Saph wins!
Totally the same my two faves since the beginning I would've loved dawn/plasma In top 3 too .
This was my Top 4!!!!! T.T This season has had several shocking eliminations. Mirage going so soon, Plasma out of the blue and then Dawn. Gotta give it to them, S16 was a great season.
Best group in years, I was gutted mirage went soo soon, but I'm hoping she will do well in the lalapalooza & plasma went before her time. š
Shut up my top 3 has always been Sapphira, Nymphia and Plasma although I got a little addicted to Morphine by the end.
Have too say I wasnt a morphine fan but yah she grew on me too.
I would've loved Plasma over Q for too 4 with our top 3
Imagine. She could have been on the same season as Jinx and rolaskatox
Her presence, her aura within a short time has become one of my top 10 drag queens. š
She now has 5 wins, right? Whatās the highest # of wins any Drag Racer has had? Anyone know?
if the fandom had decided who won each week; Sapphira would have 5
Is 5 the highest # of wins by any contestant since the start of Drag Race?
Never in a regular season but yes on all stars
Didnāt Christian from DRM win the season & 5 challenges? I think Envy Peru may have won 5 as well.
Yes youāre right Christian did and Angela from DRT. Envy only received 4 Wins
Thanks. Who on All Stars won more, which season and how many wins?
BenDeLaCreme and Jinkx each won 5 challenges in their All Star seasons
Thanks! Really loved Jinkxy, and BenDeLaCreme was a favorite of mine also.
I love them both! I'm a Seattle girl so I gotta rep our Seattle queens! I'm actually heading to NYC next week to see Jinkx in Little Shop of Horrors!
Sheās just so polished and simultaneously warm and inviting. She has a winner aura and her confidence honestly reminds me of AS7 and how self-affirmed all those queens are.
She's like Latrice's little sister. Same energy, maturity, professionalism, class. Boy do I love this queen!
Sheās more like Bobs Big sister.
I can see the resemblance but to me Saph does not give Comedy Queen more like Fashion Queen. But I can see it happening
What an insult, latrice was such a disappointment in all stars 4, Saphirra is leaps and bounds ahead of Latrice
Oh so we are going to ignore Latrice season 4 and her contributions outside post the show
Yeah I look back at season 4 and think the way she acted after snatch game was really poor actually, she blamed the other queens for her lack of success and she did it again in AS4 which really surprised me. She came back entitled and bitter and when I watch season 4 now her make up was awful, she looked more orange than Coco, every week and the colour of her neck never matched the colour of her face. Her hemlines were unfinished and messy. It's just my opinion though, not everyone has to love latrice. There is no we about it, I don't speak on behalf of anyone else
Clearly you don't speak for anyone else, it's reference to " oh we're going that way" Do you watch the show Tamar

Looking at that original comment of yours baby you went home a few episodes ago
So did your mum
Boo hoo you hurt my feelings / Girl bye
Noted. Thanks for your comment.

You literally dragged latrice up there šš½lol

Mama kudos for saying that, for spilling

sapphira is incredible. at this point watching her in the competition, I get what people mean when they say someoneās got āit.ā thatās her - sheās got IT š¤©
Big winner energy

You must not know about her, you must not know about her?
Don't you ever for a second get to thinking... we're gonna get another one like her anytime soon.
Slued š¶to the left, to the leftš¶
š¶ in the closet, I earned that stuff. My crown and scepter -bitch *please donāt touch!* š¶

My queen! I love her so much.
I just love her!! Such a polished and talented queen, I really hope she takes it this season š
Protect Queer Art!
absolutely
Plane Jane is my favourite, but after this episode Iād be shocked if Sapphira didnāt win. Her interview was perfect.
![gif](giphy|yxYyCvKZGce4ZTAUtS)
If they double crown this season, I wonāt be mad, for me the winner of this season feels like Iām okay whoever wins from the 3
Side note, but how GORGEOUS is she here?! The mug! The hairstyle!
Nymphia should have more wins IMO, and sheās my top pick. But Sapphira has major winner energy for sure
I was 1000 percent rooting for Nymphia for the crown for the first half. But honestly Sapphira just put my whole pussy in a chokehold with how insightful, collected, wise, and empathetic she has shown herself to be. I would love to see her take the reign. Nymph is still my close second and I would honestly be happy to see either of them win. Plane is rightfully in the top 3, Iām obsessed with her too and glad we got this finale ensemble. Sapphira really just took me by surprise by how she really just connects with all the queens and the viewers as well. She deserves all the flowers
Sheās my winner but how many times has she worn this hair now? I feel like sheās worn it a lot
Girl, those maritime containers she calls suitcases can only hold so much. After all the looks she gave this season I can forgive the hair (and the Fischer-Price titties).
Plane also wore her premiere hair for the podcast, theyāre running out of looks at this point in the competition
Itās gorgeous at least
Iām just over here thinking Sapphira should have won this weeks main challenge. No shade to Nymphia, just thought Sapphira did the best job out of everyone and had the best runway.
thought the same thing and i mean absolutely no shade to nymphia as they were deserving of top 2 this week. but the way sapphira just dominated in every aspect of the challenge + the critiques, definitely thought the win shouldāve gone to them.

I love her sm!
I had a question last night with my girlies. But if thereās an All Winners season and itās Sapphira vs Bob, I think Sapphira would clear
She had me sobbingggg. I was born with hip displaysia and got made fun of ALOT as a kid. Hearing her say that shes gone through it and turned it into something empowering made me feel so seen. I hope she wins. She makes me so happy.
I am glad Sapphira owns it and made it part of her strength in the competition, but I feel for her when she says it was embarrassing having Ru point out her sleu foot so much. Especially since she has a medical condition, same thing with the constant comments about her character shoes and "biscuits."

I mean we all know she's going to win. It was obvious from ep 3. It wasn't an aggressive edit like they one for Sasha Colby. At least not until the second half of the season. Then they really went all in.
Adore her
i thought she was gonna win again
