RuPaul: Previously, on Canada's Drag Race...
You will be over-acting
in two her-itage moments.
Action.
I can't go back to working in coat check.
I just can't!
Too many people have died.
Your waist.
Ahh! That was late.
Kyne, what do you think about your outfit?
I like my outfit.
Really? - Tynomi Banks.
It seemed like Lemon was propping you up
a little bit.
Lemon, con-drag-ulations.
You are the winner of this week's challenge.
Tynomi Banks, chante, you stay.
Kyne, sashay away.
Oh my god!
What a day, girls.
"I love you, Tynomi." I love that part.
"I love you all."
"Think of me fondly now that I've said goodbye."
Aw!
Kyne has just left us, and it's crazy.
She's a huge name in Canadian drag,
and she's a huge name in online drag.
I'm just gonna wipe off this bullshit.
Bye, Kyne! - Bye, Kyne!
It doesn't matter how big of a name you are.
Anybody could go home at any moment.
Congratulations, Lemon!
The redemption!
I just won the first acting challenge
of Canada's Drag Race, ever.
I feel so renewed.
I can't wait to win again next week.
That's how you think, honey?
I want to win like you!
I want to win $5,000 worth of makeup.
You won the lip synch. You're still here with us.
Don't do that to me again. - Get it together, girl.
I need you here with me till the very end.
It was like a restart button.
I just don't want to get like negative feedback.
I want to give the runway.
I want to give it my all for every challenge.
Any time I'm in that bottom it's Hunger Games.
I'm Katniss Everdeen. Arrows are coming out.
I am not going down.
No, my ear!
Ow, ow, ow!
Ow. - Oh my god.
I'm not lip synching again for the second time,
but if I do, I'm taking no prisoners.
Ow!
The winner of Canada's Drag Race receives
a year of hotel stays from Hilton,
and a cash prize of $100,000.
With Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman, Stacey McKenzie,
and Brooke Lynn Hytes.
With tonight's extra special guest host, Deborah Cox.
It's a new day in the workroom.
There's only 10 of us left.
The stakes are now higher than ever.
Wow, it already feels like we're so many less.
I feel like it's gonna be anyone's game to take.
I'm looking around the room,
and I don't know who is going to go home.
That's 'cause it's you, but totally.
you, bitch.
O Canada!
She done already done had herses.
Hey, kitty girls. - Hi!
I've always wondered how Canadians get anything done
with all the apologizing y'all do.
Sorry about it.
Always sorry about this, and sorry about that.
The time has come for you to Ru-pologize
like your life depends on it.
Sorry, not sorry, but totally sorry.
Ooh, bitch.
Bonjour, bonjour, bonjour!
Good morning, bitches!
Hi. Good morning.
We have some company today.
So you better be on your best behaviour.
Please give a warm Drag Race welcome to...
Traci Melchor.
I am a Drag Race superfan!
Traci is here to help us this season
as Canada's best squirrel friend.
A squirrel friend is like an ally.
She loves her gays.
She stands up for our rights.
Plus, a drag race superfan.
For today's mini challenge,
you're gonna be auditioning as anchors...
Yes.
...for a brand-new morning show, Canada Gay-M!
And you'll be co-anchoring as pairs,
so bosom buddy up.
The team that does the best job
entertaining the nation will win.
Oh, but wait-- there's just one more thing.
No...
Canada Gay-M will be the nation's first
tri-lingual talk show.
Can I switch? I want one of the French girls.
Your teleprompter script is gonna roll by in French,
English, and Canada's third official language,
Draglish.
We get to read French on the teleprompter.
I'm very happy. J'ai capote.
You will have 20 minutes to get into
anchor woman quick drag.
Queens ready, set, anchors away!
Bye-eee!
You should practice your French, ladies.
Maybe you should practice your English.
Oh-ho-ho! Ha!
BoBo, you win that round.
Tynomi is toe up from the flow up.
She looks like someone's Jamaican
great-great-great auntie.
Bonjour, bonjour.
You are our only two Quebecois queens.
Oui, monsieur. - Oui.
So, when it comes to the French portion of it,
you should be top notch, yes?
It's in the Baga.
I want to give you one tip.
If you it up, keep going.
I'm gonna count you down,
in 3, 2, 1.
Hello, ladies, gentlemen,
and all the non-binary folks watching at home.
I'm Stacy. - I'm Lacy.
My name's Priyanka.
And I'm Lemon Bowyer-Chapman Melchor.
And my name is Nancy Grace,
and I am full-blown pissed to be here,
but good morning anyway.
Hiiieeee!
And welcome to Canada Gay-Mm, hunty!
Here's today's top tea.
Drag Race star Brooke Lynn Hytes' closet
was raided in Bling Ride Ring...
Oh my god, Bling Ring style home invasion.
Police weren't able to attend-- apprehend and suspect.
But a warrant has been put out for a breast!
Le garde robe de la vedette Brooke Lynn Hin--
...a été dévalisé lors d'une invasion de domicile
a la Bling Ring.
La police n'ont pas été de booya-ka.
Wigs snatched. Ha!
House of Hytes mopped.
Police, gooped.
Gooped is right.
Police duped.
Duped is right.
This week's supermodel, Stacey McKenzie
was invited to throw three free throws
at the Toronto Raptor game.
Her starting position, fashion forward.
Stacey McKenzie a été
invitee a lancer
Raptors de Toronto.
Con-drag-ulations, Stacey.
She is serving... - She is serving...
Butch queen realness at the sports ball team.
And I ally-oop!
Today is national arriving on time day,
or as drag queens call it,
tomorrow.
...ou, comme l'appelent les drags queens...
Ou, comme l'appelent les drag queens le lendemain.
You don't keep time, then you can't be clocked, bitch!
Tongue pop?
Tongue pop, tongue pop!
In an interview with National She-o-graphic...
...squirrel friend Traci Melchor rocked
the squirrel community by saying she hates nuts.
Me too!
Mainly because she can never remember
where she hid them.
Dans une entrevue avec National She-o-graphique,
notre amie l'écureuil Traci Melchor...
Traci Melcor.
et communique...
And with Pride season just around the corner,
let's take a look at the upcoming weather report.
I forget your name. I am very sorry.
It's Rebecca O'Neil.
Rebecca O'Neil, I'll let you take this one.
Rita, I'll let you take this one.
...co-anchor name, I'll let you take this one.
Thanks, insert co-anchor name.
Oh, and happy pride.
Oh, a Joyeuse Fierté.
Rains are a sure way to sunshine.
Chante, you stay.
You can't rain on this queen's parade, okurrrr?
Oh!
Okurrrrr?
And that is all we have for today,
fortunately for you at home. Unfortunately for me,
I'm stuck with this bitch.
Alright, that was it for today.
My name is Kiara.
And I'm Rita Baga. - I'm Tynomi Banks.
And I'm Anastarzia Anaquway.
And we are signing off, as your sissies.
Sissies! - Sissies.
And remember what they tell you.
Don't stop until you drop.
Oh! - Oh, shit!
I need some more vodka.
Ladies, can I just say, how dare you?!
How dare you come for my gig?!
You all served us some scalding morning tea,
but two of you gave us good talking head.
No complaints here.
That's why she's our squirrel friend.
The winners of today's mini challenge are...
Priyanka and Lemon!
Con-drag-ulations! - Thank you.
I'm a winner, baby! It's my first little win.
I won another thing. I won another thing.
You've each won $2,000 worth of gorgeous
drag jewels from Amped Accessories!
Word! Yes!
Thank you!
Are you not happy about this, Jimbo?
Hell no!
It is Nancy for the final time, okay?
Maybe they'll have Nancy Grace on their
award-winning show, so I can get to the bottom
of how the hell those two won.
Shut up, Nancy!
My queens, the saying goes,
"Behind every great Canadian is another Canadian
"politely keeping their distance".
But you're about to set aside our trademark niceness.
For this week's maxi challenge,
you'll be teaming up to tear each other down,
musically that is.
You'll be splitting into two rival girl groups
to perform a super shady, queen on queen rap battle.
A rap battle we're calling "Not Sorry Aboot It,"
#CanadasDragRace.
You'll start by writing trash-talking lyrics
aimed at the queens on the opposing team.
Then, you'll record your verses with our special guest producer,
Ralph. - Ooh.
She's an amazing Canadian artist.
I love her music.
And finally, you'll learn some sickening steps
with our resident choreographer, Hollywood Jade.
Hollywood Jade himself.
The amazing choreographer star.
Priyanka and Lemon, you won the mini challenge,
so you will be team captains.
Oh, shit!
Choose your lyrical assassins wisely.
My strategy, as team captain,
is just pick the girls who can bust out a beat.
Tynomi Banks!
Rita Baga.
Merci, merci beaucoup.
Nancy, would you come over here, please?
You bet your goddamn boots I will.
I don't rush for no one.
I'm gonna go with Scarlett BoBo.
I'm gonna grab me some Kiara.
Thank you so much.
Priyanka, who's your next pick?
Ooh, Priyanka, she's my friend.
Maybe I'm not gonna get picked last for once.
It wouldn't be a pageant without Starzy.
Ooh.
People want to know who you're friends with,
but you've gotta think who's gonna make the best
girl group and really put in the hard work to make the group,
as a whole, look really good.
That leaves Boa and Ilona Verley.
Love you both, but I'm gonna have to go with Boa.
Yes!
See ya, bitch!
I got picked last!
Ilona, you are on Priyanka's team.
I'm trying to be like, "Oh, ha-ha, like whatever,"
but twice in a row, that's actually sad.
Let the rap battle begin!
Gentlemen, start your engines.
Are we really saying this?
Oh, girl, we really gon' say this right now.
And...
...may the best woman win!
Let's do it, let's do it.
Let's go, let's go!
Alright, you guys, do you want to hear
what this song sounds like?
3, 2, 1, click.
Oh, it starts with a high heel.
We live. - Ooh.
Aah, this is amazing!
Ilona, are you okay?
I'm just so over it.
Over what? - Being picked last?
The getting picked last thing.
I'm trying to get out of the mood and just move on,
but I'm like actually pissed, because it's like this has
literally been my whole life, every time.
I was always picked last for sports and stuff,
and just it's very triggering.
Drag is the one thing I'm good at.
This is who I am, and to be picked last twice in a row now,
I'm just like... over it.
We've all been picked last once,
and it sucks to be picked last, so we're sorry.
It's okay. It's all good.
What is our group name gonna be?
Every girl group has an iconic name,
and our name's gonna be...
You're the team captain, so what's it gonna be?
Priyanka and the Dolls.
Oh! - Excuse me.
I don't understand what's wrong with that name.
I think we should be The Dolls.
No, The D wolls.
Everyone wants to be a dwoll, but they a troll.
The Dwolls are ready to play house,
and they're ready to cause some shit.
The Dwolls!
See you later, trolls.
We could play off some sort of like
famous Drag Race thing, like backrolls.
We're Canada's Drag Race season 1, bitch.
We gotta make it our own thing.
Okay, so something Canadian then?
Cheese curds?
Something maple. Maple Marys, maybe?
How about something with Mooseknuckles?
Mary and the Mooseknuckles.
What the is a moose knuckle?
A moose knuckle is when you can see
a guy's balls through his pants.
I'm learning a new word today again, "Mooseknuckles."
Like a guy has balls, and his pants are too tight,
and they look like a moose knuckle.
Drag queens sometimes don't tuck properly,
and you see their buffy boofu-boofus.
We are The Mooseknuckles.
Learning English and doing Drag Race at the same time.
Mooseknuckles on three.
1, 2, 3... - Mooseknuckles.
That's what we're naming ourselves?
Crazy bitches.
I have a question for everyone.
Are you musically inclined?
You guys have seen my resume, right?
You've seen my billboards.
We saw. - Club, club, next club.
Another club, another club.
I'm part of the Pussy Cat Drags,
I'm part of the Spice Drags, and I'm part of Little Mix.
I feel confident about this challenge
because I am a good dancer.
I can pick up choreography and I can rap.
Did anybody single out any girls and their lyrics?
The hardest part is picking one thing to say about
these * bitches in 13 seconds.
I have an intro and then I have one for Scarlett.
I'm gonna dis Scarlett. We've been friends for years.
She's my sister, and I just hope she can take the punch.
That nose contour screams "eggplant Friday"
because it's kind of like eggplant.
I'm not sorry aboot it.
Hieee! - Hi!
How are my Drag Queen Latifah's doing?
Good afternoon, bitches.
Handsome Jeffrey comes around for a visit,
and I just think, "Damn, damn, damn."
So, in the vein of this being a rap battle,
how are you gonna take these bitches down?
I'm a straight-up rapstress,
so I feel very confident in my rapping abilities.
Lemon's a rapstress.
I like literally only listen to rap music.
Like who, Iggy Azalea, Eminem?
City Girls, Saweetie.
I feel like I can really make things pop!
Hello, ladies. - Hello.
So, what's going on? What's the 411?
Okay, so we named our group.
We're called The Mooseknuckles.
Bitch, I love it.
Are you kidding? It's so classically Canadian!
Classically Canadian, and we've all suffered
from a mooseknuckle in our lives.
Speak for yourself.
Priyanka, how did you choose your teammates?
You know how the Spice Girls had
different personalities? - Yes.
Sitting here, you have five very different girls,
but together we're gonna be very, very powerful,
and make all those mooseknuckles just go wild.
Miss Mooseknuckles.
Tomorrow, you'll be rap battling on the main stage,
where we'll be joined by our extra special guest host,
Canada's legendary chart-topping diva, Deborah Cox.
It's Deborah Cox!
I've been performing her songs for like 10 years.
I hope I don't owe her royalties.
I back-up danced for her a couple times.
I don't want to gloat, but...
Okay, yeah, we know. We get it.
She's my second favourite Cox.
Hieeee! - Hello!
We get to the stage, and Ralph is there.
Ooh!
We're gonna work on songs today.
My team is a bunch of bad bitches,
and we 'bout to kill it.
Knick knack, paddywhack, give a dog a bone.
Frumpy dumb bitch, I'm gonna send your ass home.
I'm dissing the whole team.
I'm calling them dirty bitches that need to wash themselves.
If we could find Tynomi. - Okay.
Have a little bit more personality.
All of dem be dutty dutty
Need to wash ya panty panty.
Yeah! - Yes, bitch!
Rita's old, and Ilona be fake, and that last girl,
what's her name?
I am a straight-up * rapstress.
My rap is about me wanting to have a kai-kai,
but none of them being good enough for me.
A kai-kai is when two drag queens have sex.
I'm known in Montreal for being a kai-kai queen.
Kiki want a kai-kai
but none of these queens are my type.
I would not kai-kai with any other girls
of the other team, but I'll take the pit crew.
Try to slay the runway, doing it my way!
That nose gives me eggplant Friday!
You could kick it up. - Kick it up?
I feel like I just did like heroin or something.
Like, that was crazy!
Scarlett BoBo, your looks are a no-no.
Dressed like a clown and it showed in the promo.
Think of it as a song still;
stay on the rhythm.
Scarlett BoBo, your looks are a no-no--
Try to nail the annunciations.
We need to know that you're saying "Scarlett BoBo."
You don't have to scream like "Scarlett BOBO!"
She's just not quite getting it,
so she does it again.
Scarlett BoBo, your looks are a no-no.
Hit those annunciations.
Does it again.
Scarlett BoBo, your looks are a no-no.
Then again.
Scarlett BoBo, looks are a no-no.
I feel like I'm a natural.
That nose gives me eggplant Friday!
Maybe I'll become a recording artist after this.
Girl!
My vibe is kind of, you know, like I'm in the club.
Someone's coming up, trying to start some shit,
and I'm like, "Oh hell, no, I don't got no time!"
I'm feeling myself in my fur coat,
and I am ready to rhyme, rap.
Back rolls now in HD.
Pop the zits before you come for me.
Check yo' mug 'cause you looking greas-y.
Did I need to add more there?
Add like "Huh!"
Check yo' mug 'cause you looking greas-y!
Oh, bitch!
I love that.
I wasn't sure where you were gonna go at the end-- oh, bitch!
Oh bitch, look at the face all over the place!
More like RuPaul's disgrace!
Alright, ladies, you're done!
Hi!
Welcome to the rap battle studio.
Ralph is so fun.
She is absolutely serving it with that like pink hair.
Okay, work, bitch.
I worked with the other team.
They were good. No pressure.
I'm really excited to hear what you've got.
Hi.
Hot.
I have two singles on iTunes.
Okay, so you're a pro.
Well, here's the trick:
anyone can have a single on iTunes.
Let's do it.
Hi, Canada, did you get my name?
Not a copycat fish. Did you get my name?
Priyanka is snapping.
Priyanka is letting us have it.
It's me and my girls serving you spectacles.
Those other girls, forgettable.
I also have a few songs on iTunes.
Drop, drop, you're looking like a flop!
Walk, walk, 'cause you ain't the bop!
BoBo is a rock star.
Sirens, sirens! Bitch, you're caught!
Yeah!
I'm tired of being safe.
I want to win a challenge.
So, I've never recorded a song before.
You don't have a song on iTunes, okay.
Everything they wear gets them a detention.
Everywhere they go, people have nothing nice to mention.
Ha-ha-ha, I'm so funny.
That's great!
Oh, I recorded my first little song!
Let's get this over with.
I'm nervous as hell.
I want to get this shit done so I can get the hell out of here.
This isn't what I do, baby!
Come on, Starz, you can do it!
Own it, don't rent it, okay?
Hoes think they sweet
with a face half beat...
Let's do it again.
No, no, no, all cat, no mouse.
Time mother come to show the--
blah, blah, blah.
Think they sweet-- blah, blah, blah!
Starzy, you can have this meltdown later.
Open your mouth and put this verse into that microphone.
Thank you.
Time to shoot, fall from your feet.
Bitch, your face complete! - Woo!
I feel good about that. You feel good about that?
She closed her book, though.
She's done!
I will sing for real.
She's a vocalist. - Yas, Rita!
I've got a song on iTunes too, girl.
So, I might have a secret weapon.
I'm a trained singer.
Team L-E-M-O-N
ain't gonna make it to the end!
Rita Baga, she can sing.
We're the lemon pie destroyers.
Okay!
We are so unapologetically
taking these girls down,
and we're all delivering the best girl group track
you ever heard.
Sorry, Pussy Cat Dolls.
Hey, sis!
We're moving on to choreo!
I'm Hollywood.
I'm a dancer, so I know who Hollywood Jade is,
and I am gagged for him to be here.
This is Irvin, my assistant.
You're going 1, sit, 2. 3, sit, 4.
You're gonna add your hands.
Roll right, and sit, and really think like gay wrists.
Like, let it be a moment, be a moment.
Right, left, circle in, press it out.
In terms of the choreography,
I know I am slaying that.
I am that bitch, and I am serving it to you.
Crown, hips.
I'm on a team with Tynomi and Lemon,
two dancers that dance professionally.
The stakes are high.
Circle.
The other girls aren't quite getting it as quickly
as I would hope they would.
It's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
Jimbo, what's happening?
I don't know what I'm doing at all.
Well, 1, 2, 3, 4.
What did I say about these wrists?
Limp, very gay.
Over, step back, together, step out.
I do not like being bad at things.
I hate it.
Your weight should be facing this way.
But your foot doesn't move.
We gotta get this coordination together.
Ooh!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
1, 2... Alright.
I mean, there's clearly work that is necessary and needed,
so practice.
Let's do this one more time, so I know it's in there.
1, 2, uh-huh.
I mean, it's not hard... right?
Am I in the right place right now?
I love this worrisome look on all of your faces.
I'm not a dancer, and if I make it through
a dance challenge, it's gonna be a blessed day on the planet.
Roll 1, 2, 3, box step,
5, 6, circle, 7, 8, crown,
1, 2, 3, and 4.
Ha-ha! - Yeah, we're going!
Okay! He's teaching it fast!
Oh, hell, no!
This ain't Dancing With The Stars!
You wanna be on Drag Race?
I think so.
Well, Drag Race costs,
and this is where you start paying.
In sweat! 5, 6, 7, 8...
Roll 1, 2, 3, 4...
5 and 6 and 7 and 8!
You guys got it?
Crown, hip, left, right, right.
I'm gonna keep going. - Oh, there's more?
My body doesn't move like that properly.
We all better prepare to lip synch for our lives.
This choreography is hard.
Let me see it. 5, 6, 7, 8.
1, 2-- So, to the right first.
5, 6, 7, 8.
Roll 1, 2, 3, 4, box step, 6, 7, 8.
We thought we had it in the bag,
but the cat left the bag.
Cat's out of the bag, people.
We suck.
Ilona's having a full panic attack.
BoBo's crying. - Whoa.
Starzy hasn't even danced yet.
And Rita went back to Quebec!
Let's get it together.
Bye.
Mooseknuckles out.
Eeh!
Sorry, bitches!
I slept in these.
It's elimination day!
For this week's maxi challenge,
we have to create dis tracks
in a rap battle performance on the main stage.
The Dwolls are gonna kill these judges.
So, I think Scarlett's kind of
pissed off with me right now, and I'm not too sure why.
Like what kind of vibes are you getting, though?
Like, what do you mean?
They're obsessed with you.
You could take a dump on the stage
and they'd be like, "Look at, Boa took a dump on the stage
"and she rhinestoned it."
Brooke Lynn said I look sexy.
Till you took your corset off.
Really?
I think potentially Scarlett is just a little bit
jealous of how well Boa is being perceived by the judges,
but that's not her fault.
What is your beef with Boa?
Every two seconds she's trying to read me
and rip me a new one.
When I saw her walk into the workroom,
I was like, nice, a good friend to lean on and to have my back.
But I feel like when I have something bad happening,
or if I need to talk about something,
she just goes right to comedy, being a dick.
It's frustrating because
I'm trying to be there for her and be supportive of her
and she's just like...
I didn't even know that. - Yeah.
It's making me anxious, and I don't like that.
I'm not here to piss people off.
Maybe you should just go and tell her right now,
and clear the air. Get it off your chest.
If you let it fester,
you're gonna bring it into your show.
If you guys clear the air, you can just tell her I love you
and just get over it. - You're right.
Okay, I'll go talk to her right now.
So I want to talk to her about it.
We've been friends for years.
I want to talk this out.
Hey, do you have a second?
Uh, this second?
Do you want to talk soon?
I can't talk right now.
I have to get ready. I need to focus.
Do you just want to come to me, or...?
Uh... yeah.
Okay, whatever's best for you.
Okay. - Okay, I love you.
I can't have that energy going into
probably one of the most taxing challenges.
Qu'est que ?
Now I feel uncomfortable.
Save the anger for the rap battle.
I am kind of spying on the girls across the room,
as I'm snacking on my sandwich.
Hm, what's going on over there?
peeping Toms over here, back to your work.
Tynnomi, your background is Jamaican, right?
Yes, but I was born here in Toronto, and my mom,
she's from the sugar state.
Yeah, my parents are both Guyanese.
Is your family okay with you being gay, Pri?
Well, your mom?
My mom is super supportive.
She comes to like a lot of the shows,
but she has to like hide it from my dad.
My dad is from Guyana, where still you can be killed
for being gay.
Even if it's legal, you can still be shot for being gay.
My dad doesn't know that I do drag,
and he doesn't know that I'm gay either.
Really? - What?
I'm afraid of telling my dad that I'm gay
because...
I just don't want him to hate me.
I just fear he'd react that way because of his upbringing
and where he's come from.
It feels so like backwards to have to
like go back into the closet.
No one's in the closet anymore.
I've been so fortunate that all my friends
and all my family have been the most supportive
in the whole entire world,
and I'm just so scared that that one person,
who is going to look me in the eye,
and tell me to get out of their face, is gonna be my father.
In my ideal world, it would just be a normal relationship
that we already have, but just him knowing my actual truth,
because that would take a weight off of my shoulders,
and it'd probably grow that relationship so much more.
Just like this last summer, we were at a wedding,
and my dad was like trying to introduce me to girls.
Oh no! - Yeah.
When my dad asks me who I'm dating,
I say I'm dating a girl named Priyanka.
So now, when he watches Canada's Drag Race,
he'll finally be able to meet her.
Welcome to the main stage of Canada's Drag Race.
I'm Deborah Cox, and I'm thrilled to be here
as your extra special guest host.
Ooh, this is trippy.
Brooke Lynn Hytes, are you ready for tonight?
Deborah Cox, my golden goddess,
I have one question for you.
How did you get here?
Ain't nobody supposed to be here, girl.
Stacey McKenzie, my rainbow leopard.
Have you ever been dissed?
No one has ever lived to tell that tale.
They got dis-charged.
Oh!
Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman.
Deborah Cox, you are a legend!
Oh, stop.
You're the reason I get oh-so...
Ah-ha! Ah!
She just said that to me!
This week, our queens were challenged to a rap battle
of epic proportions.
Gentlemen, start your engines,
and may the best woman win.
Oh my god, we are the sweetest, cutest,
nicest girl group north of the border!
Ouch! - I'm so sorry.
I mean, not really.
Come on, girls, let's get 'em!
Pardonnez moi!
Canada's sweethearts coming through!
We are like so good at walking...
And smiling! - And breathing!
Good thing we practiced!
Désolé, bitches!
We are gonna kill them with kindness.
Ha-ha-ha!
Oh my god, who are those hosers?
I'm sorry, what did you call us?
I called you a ho, sir.
Gay gasp!
I feel a rap battle coming up!
Shh, you're not supposed to say that!
It's supposed to happen organically.
Oh, ladies!
Destroy them!
I'm the queen. I'm miss Tynomi.
When I'm on stage I know you know me.
Slay all day with a face will be.
Stick you down, like to stamp my feet.
Knick knack, paddywhack, give a dog a bone!
Frumpy old bitch, I'm gonna send your ass home!
All of them be dutty dutty.
Need to wash your panty panties!
Everything I do is sheer perfection.
Everywhere I look, men cover their erections.
Everything they wear gets them a detention.
Everywhere they go, people have nothing nice to mention!
It must suck when you get no attention.
Ha-ha-ha! I'm so funny.
It's your girl, Boa and I'm here to show ya
big booty, bitch,
these other girls don't know another like me
'cause I do it differently,
sleeping on the sofa, trust you will see.
Scarlett BoBo, looks are a no-no,
dressed like a clown, and it showed in the promo.
Try to slay the runway, doing it my way.
That nose gives me eggplant Friday!
Anastarzia on the mic, your girl in the house.
No, no, no, all cat, no mouse.
Hoes think they sweet with face half beat,
it's time Mother show how to bring the heat.
Pack your cheap drag up real neat
while I sit back and I'll beat my meat.
Time to shoot for from your feet,
bitch, ha, your face complete!
Kiki wanna kai-kai,
but none of these queens are my type.
I'm sexy, so they want a bite-bite.
They can try me, but I will decline-cline.
Miss Anaquway, you can sashay.
I want a real star, no tea, no safe.
Ilona, you're on the same lane,
double chin, double teeth, baby, desolé.
I don't wanna see nobody,
seems I gotta quit this hobby.
Sinking fast, can't make it to the top.
Girl, can't wait to see you drop!
Drop, drop, you're looking like a flop.
Walk, walk, 'cause you ain't the bop.
Hot, hot 'cause that's what you're not.
Sirens, sirens, bitch, you caught!
Ain't nobody pussy pop it quite like I do.
Ain't nobody look turn a head like mine do.
Ain't no laugh track slap like mine do.
Ain't no queen rap it back like I do.
When I step in the room, girls quake,
Scarlett, Starzy, always safe.
Rita's old and Ilona be fake, and that last girl,
what's her name?
You want a dis? Take a listen to this.
Honey, hold my drink while I take a piss.
Grab a towel. Think I spilled some tea.
You make messy TV.
Back rolls, now in HD,
pop your zits before you come for me.
Check your mug 'cause you looking greas-y.
Change your clothes 'cause they smell like pee.
Hi, it's me, Priyanka.
What's my name, name? - Priyanka!
Toronto voted me the best.
Got this thing, thing.
Hi, Canada.
Did you get my name? Not a copy cat fish.
Did you get my name?
It's me and my girls serving you spectacles.
Those other girls-- forgettable.
Not sorry
Wait!
Why are we even fighting?
Shouldn't we be coming together to fight against...
slow walkers? - She's right.
Why can't we just be like polite Canadians?
You mean passive-aggressive?
Well, I didn't say that,
but if you want to turn it into that, sure.
Let's sing about apologizing!
Live, laugh...
Love, love, love, love!
Brap, brap, brap, brap!
Category is "Quebecky with the Good Hair."
First up, Kiara.
Tonight, I'm serving disco realness with a big afro.
Very Diana Ross.
She's on her way to Studi-ho 50-whore.
Mufasa, I'm gay, okay!
Gay!
I'm not afraid of any runway,
and she is not a disco deer in the headlights, honey.
Heavy is the head that wears lamé.
Next up, Jimbo.
Ooh.
My confidence is through the roof, and I am serving it.
I'm feeling all my hairs bobbing and weaving and bouncing.
I've got 11 wigs on.
I've made a harness of 12 belts, and I feel like
an electrified poodle who is ready to serve some 6ix.
In the legendary words of RuPaul,
I don't know who she is, but if it snows,
she's going on my tires.
Ooh.
Tynomi Banks.
Oh!
I'm just like all this colour coming at you,
like someone took acid and saw me for the first time.
I'm living for my crown, though.
It's like a rainbow, technicolour crown.
It's all hair.
Cousin Itt's a slut... who knew?
Boa. - Oh!
Today, I am giving you gorgeous Russian woman fur coat
realness with beautiful hair.
I'm giving you all glamour.
Not!
Look, it's Whore-at!
The '70s are back, baby!
Bitch, I've got this gorgeous green sequined
man-kini, and unfortunately,
I couldn't get a wax before I got here.
She needs a vacation to Brazil.
I am feeling the most beautiful I have ever felt.
There is a lot of woman and a lot of hair,
so get out your combs and start detangling.
Next up, Lemon.
Ooh! Oh!
The fantasy on the runway is the birth of Lemon.
This is my origin story, and I am serving you
bark tree dress and a full tree on my damn head.
I guess the lemon don't fall too far
from the tree now, do it?
Shut up, you guys. She can't concentrate.
Priyanka.
Ah! Ooh!
Bitch stole my look!
I feel incredible in this look.
Every single detail is here.
Oh, oh, oh! There's a bee!
- I'm shaking my thing!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Last week, I gave you slow motion.
This week, I'm on fast forward.
Run, bitch!
Anastarzia Anaquway.
Ooh.
This is a hairy, hairy situation.
I'm channelling my childhood.
From the back is Cousin Itt,
and from the front... - Oh!
I'm giving you Chun-Li realness.
Not by the hairs on her chinny-chin-chin.
I'm trying to show the judges versatility.
I've got hair in the back and the front.
It's Hair Club For Minge.
Next up, Rita Baga.
Shock me, shock me, shock me!
Tonight, I'm serving acid '80s realness.
I'm strutting that runway with these custom yellow boots,
giving you my inner Cindi Lauper.
I want the judges to know that she's been around
since the '80s.
She's an old one, but she's a classic.
That's one Golden Girl.
She's a cool mom.
Scarlett BoBo. - Ooh!
I'm serving you good weave
all the way down to my toes.
The fantasy is just clown freakshow eleganza.
I want to show the judges my personality with this look.
I've got BoBo in my hair with my cute little pixie cut.
My pixie cut wig is my signature look.
I'm serving you BoBo the Party Clown.
Go back to Party City where you belong!
And finally, Ilona Verley.
Oh, that's where my service animal went.
This is the first time I'm on the runway
serving powder blue. This is who I am.
I'm feeling 100% myself, getting to showcase
my brand on the main stage.
I hear she likes it doggy style.
Mark your territory!
We're letting you know that you don't have to make
hair looks look cheap. You can look fashion.
This is the look that is gonna keep me in this competition.
Bitch, get off the stage!
Welcome, ladies.
It's time for the judges' critiques.
While you performed as a group for this challenge,
you will be judged individually.
When I call your name, please step forward.
Tynomi Banks...
Priyanka....
Kiara...
Scarlett BoBo...
Anastarzia Anaquway...
Boa...
Ilona Verley.
If I called your name,
you represent the tops and the bottoms for this week.
Those of you in the back row are safe.
You may leave the stage.
It's time for the judges' critiques.
Kiara.
I lost you a little bit in the challenge.
It's hard to stick out on that stage, I know, but...
You need to start thinking outside the box
with your outfits.
The look is a little basic,
as was your performance look, which makes me think
of last week's runway look,
which was also a little bit basic,
which all together kind of puts your taste level
into question for me.
Sorry. I feel stupid.
Just breathe, breathe.
I feel so disappointed in myself.
I felt like I could nail it, but I didn't,
and I don't know. I just feel like shit.
Don't beat yourself up.
Just put your best effort forward,
and be good with what you put into it.
Next up, Tynomi Banks.
In the performance, I could see that you were
clearly a dancer, honey.
You were one to watch, and I was watching.
I was also watching you forget your lyrics,
which was disappointing.
I mean, you wrote the words.
Tynomi has been an incredible dancer with me,
so we know that the spark is there,
but you can't miss lyrics because there's a message
that you're trying to portray and project,
and we miss it if you don't know the words.
And then this look.
It's just hot glued hair around your neck.
I don't like the hat either.
I thought this look was cool.
It doesn't look polished or well put together.
The outfit doesn't show your figure.
It's not the most flattering.
Okay.
Next is Boa. - Hieee.
This look is so stupid.
It's just dumb, but you're dumb, and I love it.
Your hair looks amazing. Your makeup looks beautiful.
It shouldn't work but it does.
You've got charisma.
You're weird. You're funny.
You're beautiful.
You were such a standout for me tonight
in the performance.
I could not take my eyes off of you.
There were a lot of moments where you were
giving it, bringing it, telling it,
and you connected with every single bitch in the room.
Next is Priyanka.
Give us a twirl.
You look like you could clean
your toilet with that. - We could.
This look, lovely.
It's head to toe thought-out.
I love the braids. It's playful, just like you.
Your legs look amazing. Your legs look 20 miles long.
I don't appreciate you stealing my look,
but that's a different conversation for another time.
For the performance tonight, you stood out.
Even when you were in the background,
you were standing out.
You really know how to perform--
like, you over-perform, which is what you have to do
because it's a drag challenge.
MVP. - Thank you.
Deborah Cox, I'm so excited!
Next up, Anastarzia Anaquway.
I think that the two characters,
from two very different worlds, together is confusing.
I was hoping that when you came out as Cousin Itt,
you were going to turn around, and you were going to be like
a fierce Morticia with like black hair
all the way down to your ankles. - Mm...
And I was like, "Huh."
I love the look.
Thank you. - From the front.
Ah!
I like that you went outside of your comfort zone,
but it might not have worked
because there's too much going on.
You, in the challenge, for the most part, I lost you.
You kind of just faded
into the background for me.
You need to roll your shoulders back a little,
loosen up, because you come off very uptight,
and I don't know if you mean to.
Exactly, like that.
That's the first time I've seen you laugh or smile
this entire time.
Next up is Scarlett BoBo.
You on the runway, I loved.
Had a lot of personality.
You had me engaged. You killed it.
I think you look great.
This is just hair hanging from a bodysuit,
but the way you did it with the lines down the side,
it gives you a little bit of shape
and it has more movement.
And that hair, adorable.
You're taking chances, and that's what it's about,
is just being free, fearless.
Between this and your stand-out performance tonight
in the challenge, I feel like I'm finally seeing
who Scarlett BoBo is, and I want more, honey.
Give it to me. Give it to me.
- Take it, take it!
Ilona Verley.
So, the dancing was a struggle for you.
I felt pretty lost. - And it showed.
You very much faded into the background,
and I think that it was almost intentional.
You were so uncomfortable up there.
You had no confidence.
You have to make us believe
you know what the hell you're doing.
Because that happened and then you come out
in this fierce, fierce look.
It just looks so clean and put-together and expensive.
It was.
From head to toe, it's just, oh!
I just love it. - It's so polished.
Your taste level is so on point.
Thank you, ladies.
You may head back to the workroom to untuck,
while we deliberate.
How much does your wig weigh?
Almost 15 pounds.
This wig is so freaking heavy, so I'm just a hot mess.
I'm having a headache.
Drag is not easy.
Do you think anyone thought you looked like
Groot's sexy mother?
I hope everyone thought I looked like Groot's sexy mother.
Oh, here they are! - Drinks!
At this point,
I have absolutely no clue what to think.
I don't know if I'll be lip synching.
What did they say, Starzy, to you?
They hated my performance.
They hated my outfit.
Kiara, how do you feel?
What did they say to you?
My look is kind of basic, and they said that they question
my taste level, and I just want to stay here so bad,
and I feel disappointed in myself.
It's amazing to be here with Kiara
because I'm very supportive of everything that she's doing.
The first time I saw Kiara on the stage,
I told her, "You're a superstar, baby."
I'm not going home.
If I have to lip synch, that other bitch better be scared.
Tynomi, how are you feeling over there?
I have to go.
She needs a minute.
They were really rough on her.
Being in the bottom twice,
I'm trying to be positive Tynomi, fun, fierce Tynomi,
and I find my light is dimming.
I think Tynomi has a big expectation to live up to.
She is a drag legend in Canada, especially in Toronto.
As I'm hearing the critiques down the line
for all of you guys, I'm not jealous.
It just made me feel like I don't know myself.
I'm thinking it's amazing, and then they don't like it.
The judges are being a little harsh on her.
That is because Tynomi Banks, your name precedes you.
You know you're one of the best at what you do.
You're used to being praised every time you're on the stage,
but here it's a different thing.
I have to be quiet and take their shit in.
This is my drag, and then they don't like it.
I'm feeling like I let the judges down,
and I'm letting myself down.
Were there any critiques that were surprising?
Honestly, I was like, "They're gonna hate me."
I * up the choreo, and...
And you just glued a wig to a bodysuit.
I sewed it and I teased it and I glittered it!
What is going on with you?
What's going on with us?
I've been there for you this whole time,
and I feel like every day you're just saying
shady shit to me,
and just using me as your target practice,
and I don't know why you've just been coming at me.
Every time Boa interacts with anybody,
it's either a dig, or a read, or something to get attention.
You don't treat me like that in Toronto.
That's the thing.
In Toronto, Scarlett is like one of the top dogs
in the hierarchy.
I am a little bit lower.
Sorry.
I don't think she's used to seeing me get praised,
and get appreciated and loved,
and I think it's with her head a little bit.
She might be a little jealous.
Boa's finally being celebrated
for the first time in years.
Bitch, I've been celebrating her for years.
Bitch, I've literally been like the only one
that's been booking you and helping you,
and pushing you for years in Toronto.
I feel like the Toronto girls, they like to fight.
They like to insult each other.
And we are not like that in Montreal.
You know I have so much love for you, girl,
and I'm really, really sorry.
I'm going to try a lot harder to be more supportive of you,
and I'm really sorry.
I will always apologize, just to shut people up.
So, just between us bou-bouffantes, what you say?
It's tough. - It's very tough.
Boa blew my mind tonight in her performance.
I love so much that she can just stick with her quirky weirdness
and never try to downplay it, because it really is the ones
who stand out who are gonna have my attention,
at the end of the day.
Just the originality, I think, won me over.
Boa's like in a league of her own
in this competition.
There's really nobody else that's kind of like her.
Priyanka is impressing me more and more.
She definitely committed to every moment
that she was onstage.
She's just such a natural.
The looks are sickening.
They look polished, thought-out.
That bitch did not come to play.
Scarlett BoBo.
She's like a rocker clown.
What a little spitfire.
She's just a little ball of energy that just keeps
going and going and going.
I loved every minute of it
because I was having fun with her.
Agreed. - Oh, little Kiara.
She completely disappeared
during the performance.
When it comes to the runway presentations,
it's just so basic.
But she's got such a fashion body.
Yes, she has like the typical model body,
high fashion, but when she comes out on the runway,
it's just blah.
Starzy, she has this façade up, this veneer up.
She's gotta loosen up and have more fun.
We come from the same world, the pageant world,
so I get that you have to be on and poised all the time.
But it doesn't work here.
She walks down the runway and it's just been like, boosh.
It's like the Terminator in drag.
Right. - It's a meh from me.
Meh. - Meh.
Meh, meh, meh, meh.
Meh! - Meh!
Tynomi, unfortunately, she has just not been delivering.
She seems to be holding back.
Yeah.
I know that Tynomi is a fierce dancer,
but we lost a lot of her presence,
and the outfit didn't help.
It just breaks my heart.
The looks, the lack of confidence.
Every week I'm like, "This is gonna be the week,"
and then it's not the week.
Ilona...
I think that she stands out so strongly when it's just her,
but as soon as she's around her sisters,
she just completely vanishes.
She vants to be alone.
I definitely lost Ilona in Not Sorry Aboot It,
but that runway look, though.
Ooh! - That was the T.
One of my favourite looks of the season.
But not enough to win this competition.
No. - Enough!
Have we reached a decision?
I think we have.
Bring back our hairy Mary's!
Welcome back, ladies.
Based on your unapologetic performance,
and your runway presentation, we've made some decisions.
Boa...
You're safe. - Thank you, judges.
You may join the other girls at the back of the stage.
Scarlett BoBo, you rocked the stage and the mic,
and on the runway, you brought it,
clowned the house down.
Priyanka, if that's your name,
in the rap, you laid it down,
and your outfit on the runway
really braidoff.
Priyanka...
Con-drag-ulations!
Yes!
As the winner of this week's challenge,
you've won a spectacular VIP stay
and culinary experience
at the luxury Hilton Lac-Leamy.
You may join the other girls at the back of the stage.
Thank you. Holy *!
I won!
I'm the winner of this week's maxi challenge!
Oh my god!
The other girls, you better watch out
because if I could stand out amongst the 10 of you,
then you'd better learn how to backup dance.
Scarlett BoBo, you are safe.
Thank you so much, judges.
Please join the other girls.
Ilona Verley...
You are safe.
You may join the other girls.
Kiara, your singing was bold,
your outfit was gold,
but overall, we weren't sold.
Anastarzia Anaquway, in the rap battle,
you got busy with the dis tracks,
but on the runway,
your Cousin Itt was busy and distracting.
I'm sorry, my dear, but you're up for elimination.
Tynomi Banks, in the rap and on the streets,
you are the baddest bitch, but on the runway,
you had a technicolour glitch.
Kiara, you're safe.
Tynomi, you are up for elimination.
Kiara, you may join the other girls at the back.
Thank you so much.
I was praying that if I had made it to the bottom,
it would be with someone else.
But if I have to lip synch against Tynomi,
Im'a teach this bitch a few lessons.
Two queens stand before us.
Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare
a lip synch performance of Deborah's #1 Billboard hit,
Absolutely Not.
This is your last chance to impress us,
and save yourself from elimination.
The time has come for you to lip synch
for your life.
I know this lip synch off by heart
because I've danced with this woman for 10 years,
so I better not embarrass myself right now.
Good luck.
And don't it up.
We are putting on the show of the year out here.
This battle is so serious right now.
I want to be here so bad.
Starzy is so poised.
She is so pageant.
She is letting you have it,
and Tynomi is getting a little bit more
motion happening, a little bit more movement.
I love you.
Oh, wow! This is hard.
Queens, I bow to thee.
Tynomi Banks...
Chanté, you stay.
Thank you.
Tynomi, you may join the other girls.
Anastarzia Anaquway, our pageant queen,
you served the children pure class.
Bahama Mama, you will always be our Starzy,
but now, sashay away.
I love you, Starzy.
Ladies, take advantage of every opportunity
that is presented to you.
By being here, we have proven
that the sky has never been our limit.
I love you! - Love you, baby!
Love you! - Mother... out!
Yeah!
Goodbye, Mother! I love you, Mom!
The thing about life, everything happens in its time.
If I'm leaving, it's definitely my time.
No regrets whatsoever.
I came, I saw, I conquered.
I may not have won, but I conquered.
Con-drag-ulations, queens, and remember,
stay true north strong and fierce.
Hit it!
Work it for me, me
You wear it
Next time on Canada's Drag Race...
You will be working in teams to create
an iconic fashion line
made entirely from recyclable materials.
What the *?!
You literally came out
and me and Stacey went like this to each other.
What I love about an unconventional challenge
is when you can't tell that it's an unconventional material.
I would have loved to have seen
a little bit more couture.
Bitch, we look like garbage obviously,
because you gave us garbage!
Tensions are high!
Eat shit.
I'm just gonna sit here
and hopefully I don't get a glass thrown by me.
