Latrice Royale clawed her way back onto the show and earned the power to eliminate one of her fellow queens this week.
This week’s episode divided the queens into teams of two to host their own club night. As dictated by Ru, “each team is responsible for every detail, from the name to the decor to the entertainment, down to the signature cocktails.”
Latrice got to pick the teams, putting Monet X Change with Monique Heart, Trinity the Tuck with Manila Luzon and Valentina with Naomi Smalls — the last of which turned out to be a total disaster.
The first club was Monique and Monet’s space-alien club, which “personifies the mystery and the unexpected,” was a big hit with the judges, who agreed that it “made some sense… and no sense.” But Michelle Visage put it best when she simply called it “stupid fun.”
Club Hive, the brainchild of Trinity, Manila and Latrice — was the best. Decorated like the inside of a bee hive, this club was a pun enthusiast’s paradise.
Naomi and Valentina’s ’90s fashion-themed joint was a solid attempt, but as the judges rightly pointed out, it was “one-dimensional” and it “needed to be more.” The blame, of course, should fall on Valentina, who contributed more problems than solutions while constructing Club 96.
Valentina gave the performance of her damn life, while Naomi straight-up threw her partner under the bus for not contributing as much in the challenge.
Through tears, Latrice chose to send home Valentina. Do you think she was the right queen to go? Drop a comment with your thoughts below.
