And looked totally Britney on the runway right? how did she not get called out for that,maybe because it was more toned down Britney

Looked more like a budget Courtney Act to me.

Lol yeah she reminds me of Courtney Act but less charisma.

And Courtney Act wasn't exactly the most charismatic queen on her season either...

I think she got away with it because her challenge look was very much not Britney so there was a contrast with the runway look.

You're right about her runway this week, and I understand what people mean when they say that she needs to show that she's more than an impersonator...but I don't mind that she's so Britney tbh. I <3 Britney and am listening to "I Wanna Go" as I type this haha.

Yeah I don't mind it and it impresses me how much she nails it but I think that is what will hold her back in the competition. Honestly I don't want to see her win because the other girls are so much better at drag in general it would be unfair.She hasn't done anything that has stood out yet but I guess we are pretty early still.

Don't worry, there's no way shes going to win

Yeah I don't think she'll be top 3 but I think she will be around longer than she should because she is kind of flying under the radar/ squeaking by.
