Jade was placed in the bottom three in the first episode, but was spared over Serena ChaCha and Penny Tration. She was later eliminated after losing a lip sync to The Pointer Sisters "I'm So Excited" against Coco Montrese, whom she had struck a friendship with for both hating fellow contestant Alyssa Edwards. Coco won, sending Jade home, with her placing eighth overall. A fight between Alyssa in an episode of "Untucked" included Jolie commenting on Edwards's "Back rolls", which became an internet meme.

Drag Name Origin[]

The name "Jade" originated from the fictional character of the same name from the video game franchise Mortal Kombat, where the former had "the best body and tits" which she had wanted to resemble. Meanwhile, the name "Jolie" originated from the American actress, filmmaker and humanitarian Angelina Jolie, whom she described as "the queen of all queens."[citation needed]
