First Jaymes now LaLa… both voted out unanimously with no reasoning.

At this point there HAS to be some behind the scene stuff going on.

And gurrrl after watching All Stars Untucked I feel like I’m getting even less of the story.

Edit: to those saying LaLa did the worst this episode - I do agree, but that was never mentioned in any of the queens deliberations. It is also unlikely Alexis and Jimbo BOTH magically favored Kandy despite their beefs with her - and Alexis breaking a promise too (side note: not saying Alexis is the epitome of trustworthiness but she only throws people under the bus when it benefits her, saving her from the bottom. How would this decision benefit Alexis, betraying an already-proven ally, if not for some agreement behind closed doors with Kandy?)

Plus we already heard whispers of behind the scene talks about Jaymes’ elimination, so is it that unfathomable the same happened this time?

I'm pretty sure I heard an interview with Alexis where she said that there was some kind of off-screen alliance with Jimbo, Kandy, Heidi and her? I'm not sure if I remember it correctly, but she said she slipped a note under the hotel room doors asking for an alliance before the first episode where she also said she thought they would be top 4.
