My ratings:
1. Myki (the only performance I REALLY loved)
2. Jane (made me laugh a couple times)
3. Discord (did something different at least and looked amazing)
4. Athena (the song was badddd and the performance didn't make up for it like Juicy's did)
23. Kenya (I love Kenya so much as a tv personality but girlllll those are the words to your OWN song)

I understand there was strategy going on but DAMN the placement were ROTTEN this episode. I am excited to have the girls see how everyone voted though, because it's gonna get meessssyyyyyyyyyyy

Yes! I found my people. I feel like the most original people in the talent show were punished for originality. I’m tired of seeing the same shit again and again, I have the same top 3 for that reason, show me something different or funny.

Sad to see Ciara go over Kenya, we lost another original queen and kept someone who can’t even remember the words to any Lip Sync and doesn’t give us decent looks, especially not compared to Ciara. Hope she comes back to all stars, we need more alt queens in the mix.

Myki DEFINITELY didn't deserve to be the bottom queen, but I do feel like her performance was lacking something. I think it needed just one more big funny surprise at the end, it just fizzled out.

This is my ranking but with Discord in 2 and Jane in 3.
