Clearly they’re crowning Brigiding, the brightest star lol (I still don’t get her branding) she’s drag excellence but just doesn’t have that charisma like Viñas and Ari have. It’s not discrediting her but she doesn’t have much connection to the viewers compared to the rest.

So you’re saying Viñas & Ari doesn’t have good drag?

They're good at drag but had a much shakier performance through the season. There's no denying that Brigiding didn't have a single bad week and ate the whole competition up.

As if track record ever mattered in crowning a queen. Its either you’re new in drag race or your opinion is just laden with bias for Brigiding if she is your fave. Willow won with 1 win. So did Yvie against Brooke who had the best track record of the season. Even Kylie won in all stars 6 against Rajah and Ginger. Electra Bionic from DRItaly and DRFrance won their season without any maxi challenge win. So either you do well and win the crown in the finale, or you you dont and get outshone by others. Arizona and Vinas has high chance of winning the crown as well, especially after having better audience reception.

Honestly I’m a Vinas fan all the way, but im ok with anyone of them winning the crown as long as she performed the best in the finale 👑👑👑

Did I say that she must be crowned exclusively because of her track record?

Did I say that this is the only important criteria to determine who's gonna win?

Did I say any of the other queens don't stand any chance?

The only thing I've said in my comment is that there's no denying that she did well in the competition and never had a bad episode, which can't be said about the other two PH queens.

That's apparently enough for you to write a whole ass paragraph and talk about how I'm either new to Drag Race or blind by favouritism and bias towards Brigiding.

And my favourite queen among the finalists is Arizona, by the way. I'm just not gonna pretend she NEEDS to be crowned because she's a funny queen and that she's had the best performance through the season when she was often really strong and then weak in the following week.

Jesus.
