She’d have to have a far worse week than this to not be a lock for the finale by now. On the whole, though, I’m not that worried about Gottmik’s trajectory. Her runway seemingly saved her from a bottom two appearance (never mind that both Tina and Utica’s commercials were also mediocre). But what she came up with instead was a confusing mess of a commercial, one that both inadequately branded who she is as a queen and wasn’t even particularly entertaining to watch. I get her motivation: She didn’t want to be like Tina and get knocked for serving the exact same thing. This was an off week for Gottmik, as she tried to shy away from her all-white makeup brand and do something new. Who’d have thunk it after her messy “Rumors” lip sync in the premiere? 5. Against all odds, Utica has turned out to be a Lip Sync Assassin. What an absurd, committed interpretation of a song you’d think would be totally out of her wheelhouse. Utica’s saving grace this week was her performance in the lip sync-and if you ever expected Utica to turn out a lip sync to the Black Eyed Peas’ “My Humps,” you should go buy a lottery ticket. Why was Clara the Cow there? Why was Utica sucking her drink out of Clara’s udder? Wasn’t the whole point of “Utican” that you lick the can instead of drinking it? It was all just a mess, and unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like she knew it. There were some genuinely very funny bits in Utica’s commercial, but the whole thing lacked cohesion, and felt more like a bunch of rough sketches of ideas than something purposeful. look-she’s shined the brightest in this competition. When Utica can overcome that impulse-in her sleeping bag runway look, for example, or in Symone’s B.A.P.S. Symone absolutely nailed it in her confessional about Utica: She is indeed a “creative force,” but because she’s not confident enough in her artistic vision, she defaults to weird and quirky. Props to Tina for going out fighting in that lip sync, but her journey was clearly at its endpoint. But the time to make that critique was weeks ago, instead of largely giving Tina a pass this season. Which is okay! I’ve certainly gotten as frustrated with all the fiery colour palettes as Carson Kressley did this week. Have you been affected by any of the serious issues raised during RuPaul's Drag Race? We're here to guide you and assist fans any way we can.I think what the judges were actually expressing was something they’ve hinted at all season: They’re just not that interested in Tina’s aesthetic.
