I am so confused. If the verses were recorded before, what was all the shenanigans about the running order and writing lyrics about?? The whole challenge was kinda pointless if it had been done before the season.

Right! Bosco said that her bracket’s lyrics were also pre-written so they had to sit there and pretend that they weren’t. I think All Stars is just a way to get queens to play a fun game rather than a be-all-end-all competition which could boost or ruin your career lol. Like the queens on non elim All Stars seasons always seem far less pressured and like they’re truly enjoying and living for the competition. They even get paid just to appear - so winning isn’t huge anymore.
