The girls are fighting!
With emotions extremely high, the queens were unafraid to evoke the rulebook to ensure their safety.
Jewels then said they were told to claim what they needed.Who told them?

They’re shown picking up their materials.
They’re shown asRuPauldoes their walkthrough to guide the contestants.
And they’re shown hard at work.

Then the cameras are cut for them to work briefly without interruption.
It was during that time that Lexi Love tattled on Hormona.
Anyone who has ever applied a rhinestone to a garment knows this is not an easy task!

Was she silently disqualified?
On top of that, she beat the odds ofselecting the correct lever of the Badonka Dunk Tank.
Its an animosity that is bound to continue beyond this week.
She didn’t target her specifically, as social media had displayed.
Hormona was not the only one to use illegal materials.Suzie Toothas beenbrought into the mix through social media accusations.
However, Hormona was the only one that brought it up once we were filming!"
Could this issue have been left completely off the show?
According to Lexi, if Hormona had been silent, it sure could have!
Trials and Tribulations
Now, to the other battle at hand.
It was trials and tribulations for Onya Nurve and Jewels Sparkles.
In this challenge, the queens selected Monopoly cards that reflected what color materials they were to use.
That meant everyone with that color had the same pile of materials to utilize.
Both queens, along withJoella, were Team Green.
But this was not a team challenge.It was every queen for themselves.
In a battle to stand out, what could have been a conversation, became an all-out fight.
For Jewels and Onya, both queens have impressed RuPaul thus far.
Their newfound tension stems from wanting to be at the top.
It had to be shown on camera for the overall story this season to be told.
The cartoon queen with an artistic flair sadly becomes the Porkchop of ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ Season 17.
How honest isRuPaul’s Drag Racewith its viewers?
Now we know that rhinestones, in this case, are strictly off-limits.
Drag is about sisterhood, but not here!It was every queen for herself!
Its a reminder that not everything you see on screen is what happens during filming.
Theres more that means the eye on reality television.
Perhaps we should be thankful for the transparency from theDrag Raceteam.
Now we want more!
Previous seasons ofRuPaul’s Drag Raceis available to stream on Paramount+.
