‘RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World’ fans call out Baga Chipz favoritism
RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World introduced an impressive cast. Pangina Heals, Jujubee, Jimbo, Cheryl Hole, Blu Hydrangea, Baga, Mo Heart, Janey Jacké, and Lemon are all competing to take home the prestigious crown. Fans around the world rooted for their favorite, although production seems to have contradicting standouts.
Redditors called out RuPaul’s favoritism toward Baga starting with her original appearance on the show. Reddit exploded with fans calling out how she got a “free pass” on the runway. They question how she consistently manages to keep in the competition. Twitter is calling out the show for its favoritism of Baga in ignoring poor dancing and runways.
Fans are considering not watching the finale because of how the season unfolded
Several RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World fans took to Reddit to express their frustration with Baga’s favoritism. As a result, some folks are considering not watching the finale of the show. Others would have never watched the show if they knew that Baga would make it further than the eliminated queens.
“Are people still watching this?,” one Redditor wrote. “Everyone who I was rooting for is eliminated. I don’t care, it’s how you play the game, but now I’m bored. Wish there was a returning queens episode. Everything feels rushed.”
“If you had told me – week one – that these would be the top four, I would have said no chance in hell,” another Reddit user said. “And what would even be the point in watching.”
Another user went as far as to say, “It’s totally beating a dead horse at this point, but there is genuinely no queen I’ve enjoyed less on Drag Race than Baga Chipz.”
“I’m sure she’s [Baga’s] self-aware/playing a character but her drag just isn’t good enough to back up the whole ‘I’m so over this, it’s beneath me, I’m so famous’ routine, so she just comes across as really entitled and exhausting to watch,” another Drag Race fan explained.
‘RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World’ comes down to U.S. vs U.K. contestants
RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World has unfortunately become the U.K. vs the U.S after Janey’s elimination. Frontrunners Pangina and Jimbo both went home much earlier than expected, even though they weren’t the worst in their given challenges. As a result, the finale includes Jujubee, Blu, Mo, and Baga. The fans aren’t very pleased with this finale.
Expect a big social media outcry if Baga wins the crown in RuPaul’s Drag Race: UK vs the World. RuPaul certainly enjoys Baga’s sense of humor, although the same can’t be said about the fandom.
