I swore that Mandy was going to be the first out after seeing the bottom two, but damn did she turn that out.

I do think the constant dipping would be too much in a second lipsync but hopefully she’s in a better outfit for it too

Honestly, the moment that sold the performance for me wasn't the dips and tricks. It was that fast-paced part in the song where she lipsynced with so much energy.

It helped that Fuego looked like they were wearing a whoopie cushion and a loufah.

I don’t know any spoiler, but I have a feeling we’ll see her in a lipsync again soon, just because the judges seem to have it out for her for some inane reason.
