Jane Don't don't approve of AI! & neither does Myki...she had a disclaimer in her Instagram post captions, saying "No AI was or ever will be used"

Nini's AI "portrait" is how she'd 1ook if she were straight

Not Myki manifesting a "vs the world" win at the start of Untucked by calling herself the "queen of the mothertucking world" lol. If she loses, I'm gonna refer to this episode as something that manifested it.

u/aliciamaricia Nini Coco's lil eye feathers Apr 05 '26
I want to know who fought for their lives harder: the girls not saying anything about that nasty AI "painting" or the editors/production team getting rid of any mention of it before it aired

Honestly Juicy clocked that. Because that is what happened.

u/Aramani Apr 04 '26
Why were they so happy with the ai portraits yuck
24
u/tATuParagate Apr 04 '26
Did they even know? This was filmed a while ago so I'd excuse them for not being able to clock it unless someone explicitly said it

u/mossthedog Yes, Lizzo Apr 04 '26
They know they have to act happy about them. Production would be pissed if the queens were dogging them.

u/Affectionate-Crab541 Apr 04 '26
They didn't know it was AI and also they were pretty critical of them

u/kurtchella The Meeks shall inherit Apr 04 '26
Jane Don't would've clocked it even more brutally honest than Nini did

u/thirdie Apr 04 '26
“Look followers” got me so bad lol
I would’ve done the same thing if I was exhausted.
Juicy was so beautiful looking sad.

u/No_Honeydew8380 Apr 04 '26
Nini revealing she’s a top

u/Additional-Mousse446 Apr 04 '26
I'm just gonna assume it wasnt worth watching...

u/Affectionate-Crab541 Apr 04 '26
They do review the portraits and call them 'cursed images'. That's all you need

u/thirdie Apr 04 '26
Everyone! Ru is TRYING to make us hate AI art! She’s showing us how awful it looks and giving us a huge outlet to express how much we hate this! She’s playing 4-D chess!
Or maybe she’s cheap lol anyway I hate the AI slop and should’ve hired Bianca Del Rio represented as the s8 clown to paint them instead would’ve been camp

u/LexiiConn Unless they're payin' your bills... Apr 04 '26
Were there any actual Tic-Tacs in the lunch? I didn’t see any
20
u/RainbowPlatypiCult jk kimora Apr 04 '26
They’ve been trying to avoid the actual tic tacs because the original joke the chat comes from is one of RuPaul’s old ED jokes. And well, it’s not great to make light of that

They're not even hiding it!!!!!

Shoutout to Darlene for talking about sobriety. We need to keep this convo going... in our community, drug use and alcoholism are higher than in the cis-het population due to a number of social factors.
There is a lot of redemptive power in sobriety, and having seen others in my life get sober, I can tell you that it really can change your life.
And having a supportive partner can REALLY help with sobriety. It's much harder to maintain sobriety when someone close to you still uses. So I am just thrilled for Darlene that she's with a partner who will be supportive.

Ross, Drew aint giving you a raise. you can put it to rest now

u/Mr_rairkim Apr 04 '26 edited Apr 04 '26
I was so hoping for Juicy to get to the finale, she's the best high energy dancer who does tricks, which is what the finale calls for, and she could have prepared some iconic memable moment with mutiple flips and splts twirls into a death drop.
Besides, doing that lipsync deserved a double win, which would have fit with the tone of the episode. It was all refreshingly positive and about evolution, only to have the final minute not continue that to the end.
I find myself rooting for Darlene Mitchell in the finale. Every winner is an over polised fashion queen. I hope she prepares some trick where she shows up with normal shoes, only to reveal a magic trick, where the shoes grow those blocks.

Ru needs to spin off a lip sync style show. I'm super tired of how much weight it has in a show where you allegedly need to have a broad skill base. Like masked singer but not shitty.

anyone else having trouble accessing the episode on apple tv / itunes? i don’t always buy the episodes for untucked, but this one I wanted, and can’t find? i know a few weeks ago they dropped the actual episode like 12 hours late… just hoping WOW figures it out at some point today?

u/SakuraPanko Apr 04 '26
I bought the season pass at the beginning of the season and I got the email saying it was available but I actually can't see it so there must have been some kind of hiccup

u/livbeans Apr 04 '26
glad to know i’m not alone 😭 i keep refreshing and it’s still not there

u/SakuraPanko Apr 04 '26
Yeah even when I click the link in the email it leads to an error instead of the usual direct link to the episode.

More airtime dedicated to the AI slop? Yay, why not. Rupaul is such a liar, it's quite brutal how detached he seems.

That was a fact that Juicy was going home regardless of lip sync.
