Ongina

Ongina has just collaborated with an Indie Brand known as Lurella Cosmetics to release a two-in-one eyeshadow palette. The palette is called, "Life is a Celebration," and is available now if anyone wants to go support Ongina! It is $45 USD. The palette is honestly looking like your quintessential all you need colorful yet usable palette.

I was watching several of the videos of Bucy (a drag queen who just got out of a homophobic country and is now in Canada needing help) and she made a lot of videos of "What would it be like if the RPDR winners were never in the cast of their respective seasons?", so I thought I'd do the same here (And if you like it, I can keep doing it).

Let's go back to 2009, the year the Drag Race started from scratch:

Episode 1 - Drag On A Dime

Eight queens enter the workroom and RuPaul announces the week's first mini challenge and maxi challenge.

I don't think anything would change in this episode in the results, the only thing I would change would be for Shannel in the Top because, in my opinion, she had the third/fourth best look of the week.

But otherwise, Nina wins the challenge of the week and Akashia sends Victoria home to Lip Sync.

Episode 2 - Girl Group Challenge

Because we have seven participants and not eight, as in the original, Akashia's group will only have Jade and Tammie in their group.

I also don't think anything would change drastically in this episode, Ongina wins the challenge of the week and Akashia Breaks the Dawn and sends Tammie home.

Episode 3 - Queens of All Media

This is where things get interesting, Bebe originally won this challenge but as she is not present the other options to win this week's challenge are Ongina and Nina.

Nina Flowers was one of the funniest queens in this challenge and she served one of the most beautiful looks of the season, BUT she suffered a huge language barrier in this challenge, making mistakes in the program name etc. and we know very well that this counts for a lot in determining the your win of the week.

Ongina did something that no one really expected, she turned on the improvisation and had a great dynamic in the challenge and she brought one of her trademark looks that was the second/third best of the week.

So in my opinion Ongina wins this week's challenge, having her second win of the season, and then Shannel sends Akashia home.

Episode 4 - Mac Viva-Glam Challenge

This episode was made for Ongina to win, period. It was in her area, she was an HIV positive person who brought vulnerability to the challenge and she had the right charisma for that challenge so nothing would change in this episode.

Ongina would be the first queen in Drag Race history to have three consecutive wins and unfortunately Rebecca would send Jade home. (PS: Jade was the first "robbed" queen in Drag Race, she didn't deserve to leave in this Lip Sync)

Episode 5 - Drag School of Charm

Apart from the fact that this is one of, if not the most rigged episode of the first season of Drag Race. To this day I don't understand why RuPaul gave Rebecca a win in the makeover, as her look was the simplest and ugliest on the runway but we're not here to talk about that.

Rebecca wins the challenge (to our unhappiness) and then Nina and Ongina will have to Lip Sync for their lives (With Nina in BeBe's place).

Listen to me, I might as well send Nina away in this Lip Sync because Ongina would have three consecutive wins and it wouldn't make sense, BUT we have to take into account two things:

• Nina Flowers is not a mediocre Lip Syncer, she was always fierce in her Lip Syncs and this one would be no different.

• We need a Top 3 in the finale and sending any of them home would make it a Top 2 and... It doesn't make sense to have a Top 2, not counting the EXACT number of episodes the season needs.

So with that let's get to a simple conclusion, neither Nina or Ongina will be sent away. Shantay, you both stay!

Episode 6 - Absolut Drag Ball

Another challenge where BeBe originally won. We didn't see how Ongina would do on the Ball but I can't see her as one of the worst of the week, but Nina brought three beautiful looks that would no doubt lead to her winning the Ball (In my opinion).

Rebecca and Shannel double for their lives and Shannel is sent home

WE HAVE A TOP 3: Ongina, Nina Flowers and Rebecca Glasscock

Episode 8 - Grand Finale

We reach the final, Rebecca Glasscock unfortunately cannot have a chance to win the crown, thus leaving Ongina and Nina Flowers to double for the crown.

It was a difficult decision to make, but we came to a result...

The winner of the first season of Drag Race if BeBe had never joined the cast is....

ONGINA!

With three consecutive wins, Ongina has gone far in the season and surpassing the expectations of the queens and the judges, she got herself a place in the Hall of Winners (which will increase...)

,

Max is the first ever contestant to walk in.

Sum Ting Wong is second, and her and Max get along pretty well.

Ongina comes in not too long after.

Then, Xochi Mochi walks in. Max is surprised to see a Dragula contestant, and thought it would only be queens from RPDR.

One after another, Loris, Foxie Adjuia, and Crystal enter the Werk Room.

Sum Ting Wong is glad to see her UK sister.

Tatianna walks in, and the others see her as a threat.

Alexis Mateo is also seen as a threat when she walks in ninth.

However, the real gag is Vander Von Odd, the last queen to walk in. Everyone is super surprised because she already won her season.

Alexis Mateo says she is happy it's not All Stars, because if her, Tatianna, or Vander landed in the bottom they would be gone instantly.

Asia O'Hara makes a surprise entrance, and it is revealed that she took over RuPaul's position. She will be the main judge of the competition.

Crystal: "We all knew it would happen."

Asia says that the first challenge is a design challenge, and that they must turn trash into treasure.

First, however, they must have a photoshoot as a mini-challenge.

Asia O'Hara: "The winner of the photoshoot is...Crystal!

———————————————————————————————————————————

Foxie Adjuia has trouble making her garment, as her first outfit literally falls apart when she tries to put it on. She quickly tries to make another outfit.

Crystal and Vander Von Odd make their outfits smoothly without any problems.

Sum Ting Wong seems to be very stressed. She opens up to the others about her fear for her health. Her family has a history of diabetes and she is always in worry over what could happen.

CRITIQUES

———————————————————————————————————————————

Asia O'Hara: "Please welcome Michelle Visage and our first guest judge, Jaida Essence Hall!"

Asia O'Hara: "First up, Alexis Mateo."

Michelle Visage: "Pageant Perfection. The dress is just gorgeous. I don't really care for the loaf, but it's you, so do you."

Asia O'Hara: "Crystal."

Jaida Essence Hall: "This look is giving me everything I need! I think your look for the design challenge on your original season was, like, better. So make sure to show improvement."

Asia O'Hara: "Foxie Adjuia."

Jaida Essence Hall: "Yes mawma, you look like a doll."

Asia O'Hara: "Yes. I like the construction of it, but to be honest I am worried for you. You're not a big name like others here, and you get lost amongst the crowd."

Asia O'Hara: "Loris."

Michelle Visage: "It is cheap and just kinda unpolished. You can do better."

Asia O'Hara: "Max. I actually am a fan of this look. Even though it is simple, I like where you went with it."

Asia O'Hara: "Ongina."

Jaida Essence Hall: "The outfit and hat are stunning. I just would have picked different jewelry to go along with it."

Asia O'Hara: "Sum Ting Wong."

Michelle Visage: "It's very meh. Just kind of there. You did not do enough to stand out and the outfit itself is not that great."

Jaida Essence Hall: "But your makeup is perfect."

Asia O'Hara: "Tatianna."

Michelle Visage: "The dress was made very well, and you look powerful. It is just a bit too basic compared to the others.

Asia O'Hara: "Vander Von Odd."

Michelle Visage: "Here we go. This is it. This is what we expect from a winner. I love the fabric, the construction, the makeup...fabulous."

Asia O'Hara: "And finally...Xochi Mochi."

Jaida Essence Hall: "Look over there! To be honest, this look felt kind of messy to me. I do like the detailing on the coat though.

Asia O'Hara: "Wig is fried."

Asia O'Hara: "Okay, thank you girlies. I have made some decisions.

Asia O'Hara: "Foxie Adjuia. Loris. Max. Ongina. You four are...safe."

Asia O'Hara: "Crystal. You are (High) safe.

Asia O'Hara: "Alexis Mateo. You are (High) safe.

Asia O'Hara: "Vander Von Odd...you are the WINNER of this week's challenge!"

Asia O'Hara: "Sum Ting Wong...you are up for elimination. Tatianna, you are (Low) safe. Which means, Xochi Mochi, you are up for elimination.

Song : Cover Girl by RuPaul

Sum Ting is very cheery and energetic. She is practically galloping across the stage. Meanwhile, Xochi is taking centre stage and has a more fierce approach on the song, which is actually kind of funny.

Vander Von Odd: "I'm rooting for my Dragula Season 1 sister. I think Sum Ting is being too cheery and it's coming off weird.

———————————————————————————————————————————

Asia O'Hara: "Xochi Mochi...shantay you stay."

Asia O'Hara: "Sum Ting Wong...never forget, you're a drag star. Now, sashay away."
