Last week we looked at and broke down all of the rigged moments from RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 8, and this week we're going to break down how the season would have went if there was no riggory! As always I try to be as objective as possible when deciding challenge winners, lip sync results, eliminations, and placements. This season definitely changes a lot, right from the jump, when you take away the riggory, so buckle up!
Will Jimbo and Kandy remain the top 2? Will Jessica snag more wins along the way? And which queens will get cut way before their time on the actual season? We'll look at every episode one by one and figure it all out!
Let me know in the comments below what you would change that I did and how accurate you think I was!

If bob can win in that robot bodysuit, kasha can win in that skirt
VERY THAT
Runways are for tiebreakers in my opinion
@@highonsugar6273they should be but the show sometimes doesnt follow that rule
@@highonsugar6273for us viewers yes but not for production
Tbh that Jimbo win was so unnecessary and nonsensical. How did she win and Jessica didn’t even place high when one of the critiques was that they both complemented each other really well.
You said you tried to avoid your bias, and yet you still crowned Mayhem Miller as the winner of AS8. We see right through you, Mr drag detective.
The eye pop defies even the laws of physics.
Besides Kahana’s “Akeria is the body” I also liked her “Yes I was a bitch, but I BECAME a bigger bitch…and that’s growth”
Yes! That was the second funniest thing in the challenge for me after lala
"And that's growth" really made Kahana's performance. It's memorable and pretty funny lmao. Good job on that improv K
LITERALLY
💯💯💯
I was living for kahanna and jessica in that challenge
the way darienne was treated this season makes me so sad
She's such a talented queen. She won 2 challenges on S6 (the season of powerhouse competitors behind S5), and she's an excellent person.
@@iandean11121 challenge*
@@samuelsomervilleart3126 I thought she had a dual win with Dela, but I must have been making that up to make myself feel better 🤣
@@iandean1112 lol it’s ok she had a double bottom with dela but she did eat the Lipsync up
@@iandean1112 she actually was in the bottom with Dela here and gave iconic lipsync...so she won in a way i guess
Jessica having 0 wins is a hate crime, and it's the fracking's fault.
Mh-hmm, preach, sister
Facts and she she should have been top 3
Everytime you say "for me" I keep thinking about Jessica Wild's taco tuesday monologue
She left her E T B card
That was weird for me...
Derek likes the soft shell with carne asada.......
Kasha's sour cream was a play on words more than an actual homage the dress is just the cream pourer like in a tea set.
Yes! How do people not see this. Even as not a tea drinker, that is what cream is served at in every diner around me
oh my god I can't believe I missed that
I was watching this video on my TV and as soon as he said no one has an answer so it doesn't exist. I marched right on over to type that so thank you
@@tylerl9325lmao wait I did the same thing
thank you! i thought it was so obvious 😭
Jessica wild getting no wins does not make sense with my fantasy. Throw it all away for that alone.
SAY THAT
And top 3
I don’t think I would have been physically able to handle Jaymes going home first a second time 💀
My heart could never! 💔
I wish this was the actual season!! Heidi getting the recognition she deserved would’ve been a great moment, and Kasha getting a win would’ve been amazing too!! This was one of the most interesting unrigging videos thus far for me. I can’t wait for the next one!!
kashas white dress for the diary look was giving handle and spout, the circle being the handle and the other side being the spout
The fact that Jessica didn't even win a challenge astonishes me.
the ball ?
oh you mean in his video hahaha
No I meant in general because i was rooting for her and thought she would win lol
Honestly same, but she only won one challenge in the actual season so.... and that win was highly questionable. It's weird because Jessica was at least for me only bad in snatch game and then she crushed everything else.
@@caseybeasley8633that's the struggle with All Stars, most people do at least good with the challenges.
Kasha's dress is very clearly meant to mimic a ceramic creamer dish. with a handle and a pourer. Similar to a gravy boat but for cream. Hope that helps.
I was going to comment this! The circle on the shoulder is supposed to be a handle.
Very clearly! Idk how these RUclips girlies aren’t seeing it
Honestly the producers should have made the talent show the comeback challenge and put it at like top 5
Probably what I would've done
The little circle on Kasha’s shoulder is meant the be her handle. She’s a little cream jug.
Of sour cream
Yes, very that
The most obvious thing that would unrig everythjng was that wheel spin for Fame Games because let's be real...
i thought it was common knowledge at this point that the wheel of fortune has a motor behind it
@@waddledeedeee lol no I'm saying the only reason why Lala Ri won the Fame Games was because of that, she wouldn't have eitherwise.
It shouldve been ×1.2, ×1.3 and ×1.5. What they did was just unfair to the others and we all knew instantly that lala won. This way theres at least a sense of disbelief that theres competition while still giving her the advantage. If lala wins the ×1.3 shed probably still win but itll be a close call with jessica
@@asian6oyLala very well could’ve won the game games without the multiplier.
@@fruitloops64i thought it was supposed to be based on the looks they showed, if so she def wouldn’t have. but ig it wasn’t
I really don’t think Heidi would quit had she won the ball (as she should’ve). Sure maybe the Kahanna drama would still have gotten to her but she probably would still have enough determination in her to stay (in any case she probably would’ve quit next episode if Kahanna’s elimination had gotten to her).
Also I think the first episodes should’ve had a bottom 3 instead, at least the first 2, in order to give queens more options (but Jaymes would probably gone home ep1 and Monica ep 2 either way)
I think you ignored one important thing about Kasha "acting defeated". First off, she said on Roscoe's that they cut it like this so it would look like she was feeling defeated, and second off, would she still "act defeated" after just winning a challenge? You're not factoring in everything.
the "it's just a t-shirt and pants" defense against why Darienne lake's billie Eilish look can't be considered good drag is a bit wild to me like... most drag is "just a dress" in that case.
but they still fawned over kandy's bodysuits/swimsuits or whatever lol
it can be considered good drag, just not on a platform/competition like drag race. theres certain expectations to be had. like on s15, marcia x3s outfits are completely valid drag, just not for the drag race format. and i think this applies to the billie eilish look.
Alexis’ Miss ManPig is legit one of my favorite runways of all time it’s so raunchy and stunning at the same time
Every time i see this look, i find something else about it that makes it even more amazing
If Darienne got Jaymes role then I feel like she would’ve been safe since it wasn’t a heavy choreo role, and she had an AMAZING runway that episode
I would agree except Jaymes did really well in that role and still got put in the bottom - I don't think Darienne could do anything to improve upon what Jaymes did since there's nowhere else to really bring it, so the one advantage she has is her runway being way better. I guess since this is unrigged and Jaymes didn't deserve to be in the bottom you could make that argument? I don't know.
Kashas look was supposed to be like a gravy boat but for sour cream. I thought it was a very good concept and a nice subtle execution. Classy with a little bit of camp
I'm noticing a trend this year where the winners are all getting pushed really hard and it's boring to watch because a winner storyline is so much more compelling when they actually have competition track record wise
Justice for Darienne and Kasha tbh they just got thrown to the side this season and they deserved much more
So proud of you, Zelda, and Bucy for making Drag Duels happen!! SERIOUSLY SUCH AN ICONIC ENDEAVOR I am so excited to watch. 😁
idk why people get so mad at your unrigging videos. Even when i disagree, i always think as, like, a little friend telling me their innocent reality show fantasies lmao. And you're one of the only content creators that actually use logic to make those kind of videos and admits when you're being biased. And even when sometimes you are biased, it's just a video, like, cmon, is playing silly, it didn't really happened and you highlight and give flowers to all the queens. imo some dudes in the comments desperately need to touch some grass.
This, the 14 yos need to touch grass
Why wasnt jimbo in the top when she had the second highest score ep 1 🤨
I honestly think that Alexis should have won the rusical over Kandy and Lala because she had the most difficult choreography and the hardest song, And she sounded the best (in my opinion). Also, to me, she had the best runway by far. Though I think that Lala would still have saved Kandy over Alexis though because they are such close friends.
Agree 💯
Absolutely agree
1000%
A repeat of Utica during the Social Media Rusical. She was so underrated.
I also think Alexis would've won. She was also THE best at the characterization
The decision to send kasha home felt weird to me, yes she acted that way in the episode but coming of a win she would be way different and I dont think that cast would send a episode winner home in episode 3.
the way im gonna be so seated for this
I think my issue with drag race at the moment, is I feel like we have have 3 seasons in a row now where I knew who was going to win just from the cast announcement!
Of course Jinkx was going to win, of course Sasha was going to win and of course Jimbo wasn’t coming back for a 3rd time to a traditionally American cast season, not to win
Kasha is supposed to be a small creamer jar. The circle is the handle that you use to lift the jar with your index and thumb. The peak on the other shoulder is where the creamer pours out. However sour cream is thicker and not used in this type of jars, so I assume Kasha is just milk that got bad. That's why she's angry😅
Thank u for ur videos, I’m always excited to see them!! ✨✨
this made so much sense. i love how these videos make sense. i love lala and heidi
Jimbo, Jessica, and Kahanna were my sentimental faves this season so I'm glad Kahanna had a better track record than her original, Jimbo still have 4 wins, and Jessica has the Jackie Cox/Eva Le Queen track record.
Me dropping everything to come watch this 👀
Why does Jimbo have the second highest score in the first challenge but isn’t in the top?
I thought the same 🤔
Cause they hate jimbo
Alexis did better in the challange which matters more
There are at least 5 people with a challenge score higher than hers, sis
That was runways not the challenge
I think Jimbo’s ball look is underrated. People say it’s just stuff glued to a corset but how else would you make a look using unconventional materials like that? It was a conscious decision by a competent designer and probably the most ambitious concept. Also the only look that understood the assignment. “Supermarket Ball.”
I’d say heidi had the most ambitious idea tho. Jimbo just made an intricate pattern using the objects and put them on a corset
girl it was lettuce
@@eveq1206 …. Made of plastic
@@eveq1206 ...which is a supermarket item
@@OriginalAllen Most ambitious in terms of construction materials I should say.
Kasha is a pitcher of cream. The round part is the handle & the other side is the spout
I loved the RRD Live challenge, and I think Kasha Davis really outshone everyone else! She deserved a win!
So excited for drag duels!!!
Not a soaking clock
The circle on Mrs. Kasha's dress is the handle of a ceramic cream pitcher. The flat side is the spout. That's what makes it cream, and then her expression makes it "sour cream." Maybe if she had made the motion of pouring herself sideways, or had some fringe on the one shoulder to show the liquid pouring out it would have been more obvious.
I think Kasha would have fought harder to stay having that one win and not being up against her friend.
jessica not having a win? and the mistreatment of lala? like lala in the bottom over darienne? really…and taking away her high spot in episode 1 🌚
I really don’t agree that Heidi would have quit in this scenario. I totally get what you mean about respecting her choice and not speculating and ‘imagining’ if she didn’t quit, but the thing is it’s quite obvious that it was her being overlooked that played a huge factor (and I get that. I understand her frustration and eventual decision). That, plus the whole Kandy/Jimbo/Alexis situation, all culminated into that. We literally saw that.
I love to see you do the full track records in unrigging videos, these are great vids.
19:32 for Kasha’s Dairy Runway - the circle is supposed to be a handle like on a little creamer boat and the shape on the other shoulder is replicating the spout where the creamer would flow out of.
Hope that helps 😘
Jaymes going home first it’s a no
Sending Jaymes home first? Wow… and Jaymes and Kahanna are friends. I don’t think she’d pull her lipstick
The queens would definitely send her home and Aja won the lip sync so...
@@eldarisss1613 I agree Aja won that lip sync
@@SocarellaDeToussaint Jaymes isn’t the only queen that wanted to quit.
@@scottmoxie Yeah, but the others express it later in the season, not on the FIRST episode. 💀
@@matiasvalentine2628In defense of james and the rest of the queens on that team, Lala and Jessica just made up choreo they could do and left the rest of their team to drown knowing they arn't dancers. At least from what we saw.
I hope this season makes way for more alliances in drag race all stars seasons because the only other one I can remember is the Alaska, Detox and Roxxxy alliance
kasha is supposed to look like a container you put cream in. like half and half for tea. Except she's gone bad, or sour, so shes sour cream. one sides a handle ones a spout
Drag Duel dropping on my birthday is so good ^_^
i can honestly say i wouldnt change a thing!! such an enjoyable video to watch😁😁
I think Kahanna in the Improv challenge is a great example of a queen needing to be the next to go, even if they weren't the worst. I personally didn't think Kahanna did well enough to justify her being safe over Kandy and Alexis with how they had been performing up until that point
Kasha’s sour cream look is so readable to me - there’s clearly a handle and spout on the shoulders. The should probably have been bigger, but I loved the look and she sold the heck out of it.
kashas first outfit was supposed to be a saucer of sour cream, but it was very clearly a white gown with the handle and nib added as an after thought.
Darienne's Net Gala runway was just absolutely gorgeous
The circle on Kasha's right shoulder is the place you would grab to pour, and the left shoulder is a spout.
The idea is more cream for your coffee than cream for your taco lol
Everyone’s saying the circle on Kasha’s dress is a gravy boat handle but no one puts sour cream in those, that makes no sense.
When you buy squeeze sour cream it has a white, circular safety seal to take so that’s what the circle is
Kasha’s sour cream look: it literally looks like one of those containers u use to pour sauce. The circle is the holder and the other part is where you pour from.
1:39 side note, I love the jacket!! (and the concept in general)!! You look so fierce 🤍
Saw the alert for this last night and I was like YAS
> Objective and fair
> Jessica getting no wins
Make it makes sense please. I am confused and astonished
On Kasha's first look in episode 3, to me it's a milk saucer, it made sense right away.
The circle on Kasha’s legend dairy shoulders is supposed to be the handle of a cream pitcher, with the pointed shoulder being the spout. In olden days cream was served in a pitcher alongside coffee, so with her “sour” facial expressions that’s how she arrived to sour cream. The joke is there, she just missed the execution.
I've been waiiitinggg
Great video!!
Season 15 and AS8 weirdly have the same energy. Everyone knew Jimbo and Sasha Colby would win their seasons the second they were cast, so both seasons I was rooting for second place. By the time the seasons were ending I was just excited to see who would be next to the winner.
For me this season needed 2 winners per episode to be able to highlight more queens
Crazy thinking about the glow-up your videos have had since your season 12 coverage
Honestly based on performances and the tea we’ve heard, the bottom 2 on Snatch Game would have been Kahanna and Heidi, and I can see all of the queens voting Heidi out if she were to stay for the critiques anyway. They would have respected her wishes to send her home and I can see her choosing her own lipstick like Ongina and Mayhem did.
Kasha's Sour cream look is in a gravy boat, that circle is the handle. I agree its basic but i liike it
Someone please send this to the producers. All Stars 8 would have been so much better...
And something you didn't mention was how cool the storyline would be with Jimbo/Kandy saving each other back to back and ending up being the Top 2. It'd be the real Survivor of drag.
Episode one was judged on THE LOOKS too. So Jaymes being in the bottom would have been unfair.
So why was Lala in the top with that horrendous Ruly Fanz look ?
@@yapasdepanneau7934 because the season was an absolute mess.
@@BeckyBookClubMain So Jaymes totally could’ve been in the bottom
The actual challenge should matter the most and not the brought from home looks, Jaymes fucked up the choreo completely and should’ve been in the bottom.
As soon as I saw this video I pulled out my joints n started watching n lighting up 😻
The circles on Kasha's spur cream dress are to make it look like a little cream dish, like what would come in a tea set
Hey I just researched this video and you made it to 75k looking forward to your head to toe drag look 😮
Would be really interesting to see what would happen if the season was top 2 format!👀
I think that Kasha’s circle and that other thing on her arm is creating a silhouette representing a sauceboat. You know, as to pour the sour cream onto something you eat 🤷🏻♀️
My only gripe is that in ep 1, if going by points, Jimbo would have been in a high placement with Jessica, not Alexis.
If going by your own scoring system, she was tied in points on that episode with Jess, and Kahanna still winning.
I love these videos.
Kasha’s Dairy look - circle is the creamer “boat” handle and the other shoulder is the spout 19:33
Loved your Drag Duel promo look Derek! You're so adorable 🥰
Jimbo not being in the top week two was a choice. She absolutely murdered that challenge
She did so good. And then saying she was so overshadowed by the winner?? Like??? Not even a little bit. Jimbo carried that scene for me.
I personally also think Kasha did really good that episode and could've won if not for the runway, but yeah, Jimbo erasure was a bit...
Your analysis was well done! N you served that lewk! 😘
I think for Kasha's Sour Cream look, the things on her shoulders are suppose to represent the ends of a gravy boat, the thing you use to serve like gravy. The circle is suppose to be the handle and the other end is the spout where the gravy, or in this case sour cream, comes out.
Will the Drag Dual podcast be a patreon only podcast or will it be released om Spotify or RUclips?
So excited for Drag Dual!!!!
Babe. Wake up. The Drag Detective just uploaded a new video. 😫
The "circles" on Kasha's sour cream runway are the removable safety tab from the squeezable sour creams. You don't usually see these on the tubs. Look is still a boot..
19:39 Kasha's shoulder thingies are the handle and spout of a cream cup, kinda like a gravy boat
I think the circle on Mrs. Kasha Davis's dress is supposed to be a handle and the part sticking out is supposed to be a spout, like one of those old school butter holders. For younger viewers - people born after 1998 - it's reminiscent of a tea pot or tea kettle.
I think the circle and other thingy on kashas "sour cream" look is supposed to resemble the kind of can, coffe-cream is served in at brunch.
- or in simple: a teapot
Not Jessica pulling a Jujubee 💀
Kasha’s sour cream dress is a pitcher! The one shoulder is a handle, the other is a spout.
Have you ever thought about doing videos that include both the riggory and unrigging? Idk if anyone else would prefer that (and they’d be hella long). I’ve noticed you reference the companion videos a lot and thought maybe a combination would be nice?
That said, I love your content and will keep watching these regardless! I just subscribed yesterday when I realized I hadn’t yet, but I’ve been watching religiously for months. 🤦🏼♀️ Keep up the great work, friend!!
The circle and spout on Kashas look is a cream pourer from a tea set
To me the circle on Kasha's dairy dress reminded me of one of those white porcelain creamers.
kashas dairy look in the ball is like a gravy dish
19:33 its the finger hole you grab when pouring the cream out of the bowl, like a gravy boat :D
I think Monica going home first is correct is was so energy and all of her runways for the fame games, showed that she didn’t have very elevated looks and her talent show. Performance was also low energy.
