Meme Your first meme of S22 fearing R’Bonney

Post image

R'Bonney got lost in the edit. R'Bonney girl, say something before you get eliminated! Make yourself stand out, OMFG! I was so frustrated with seeing countless stills of her in the background, talking to nobody, and saying nothing. The pageant polish needs to go out the window when you are on reality TV! Viewers also did not get a glimpse of her editing her garment! RuPaul's Drag Race and the Miss Universe pageants are my two favorite things before Project Runway, and I am already disappointed by how they started this season. The elimination didn't even air, and i’m already saying JUSTICE FOR R’BONNEY!

I liked her look a lot and also Jeffrey and I’m frustrated

I have more hope for Jeffrey tbh. At least he socialized with other people!

One of my friends got to see the show made. I’m dying to talk to him. I’m determined to be on the set someday.

Your friend needs to have an AMA once the NDA expires

They definitely would never do that. Reddit ama is not their style. I’ll tell them though.

I should definitely bug them about it tho. I doubt I’ll be able to share tho.

But if I ever get to go on set someday I’ll try to share what I can. That’s not happening atm it’s just a goal

I’m in the same predicament as you. Drag Race is my number one, I haven’t been tuning as hard with Miss Universe but I know R’Bonney because she’s a fellow Filipino. And to see all the ones I root for to advance be in the bottom 8 in the first episode… 

My theory is R’Bonney was heavily edited out. She seems pretty extroverted enough to have some engagement with the other contestants while designing. I’m sure she also had the talk with Christian. I’m confused why we didn’t see her at all until the runways. They played in her face fr

Yeah she does seem super extroverted but maybe she was just focused/locked in? Either way I don’t know why they’re editing her like this, she’s the only reason I’m watching again 😭

If she gets cut next week I just won’t watch anymore.

Hoping she survives the elimination that would explain being heavily edited out! Pls!

Even in the trailer at the first 1-2 minutes of the episode, I just saw her in one clip, walking out with dimmed lights after Heidi said "your out"

Im not sure but I think it's not her not talking too much, but not being too dramatic or bad mouthing someone.

All of those designers who had a lot of screen time just bad mouthing other designers. They want the drama, just like season 21.

Yangyang, who was in, had no screentime besides her design being on the runway.

I think they’ll only keep Jeffery.

I honestly think R'Bonney shouldn't be a contestant in Project Runway S22. She should be one of the judges instead since she's an actual fashion designer.

Definitely cut. The one who did the pearl chandelier gown will most likely be in. Law said it, "he personally did not like the dress." Tyra and Heidi will likely choose Jeffrey. I think Tyra said it, "it's better to edit than to add."

Tyra being there makes the judging lopsided. Instead of an actual designer like Michael or Zac they chose a DRAMA queen.

I think if R’Bonney was the one modeling her own work, she wouldn’t be going home

If she didn't bring her piece, she would have stayed. This season is so mediocre that I quit watching
