Rupaul's Drag Race Season 13 Episode 16

Okay, squirrel friends, gather 'round! Let’s dish about the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 13. Get ready for a recap that’s more fabulous than a double-stuffed Oreo!

The Crowning Glory

After a long and winding road, we finally reached the end! It all came down to our top four: Symone, Kandy Muse, Gottmik, and Rosé. The pressure was on, honey, thicker than my grandma’s gravy!

The queens were tasked with writing and performing their own verses to RuPaul's "Lucky." Think less Grammy Awards and more... karaoke night at your best friend’s wedding, but with WAY better outfits!

The performance was a feast for the eyes. Imagine a unicorn threw up rainbows and glitter – that’s the vibe. Each queen brought their unique flavor, a little sweet, a little spicy, all delicious.

Lip Sync Smackdown!

Then, the lip sync battles began! First up, Rosé and Symone went head-to-head to "Gimme More" by Britney Spears. Let me tell you, it was like watching a graceful swan fight a velociraptor... in a good way!

Next, Gottmik and Kandy Muse battled it out to "Work Bitch" by Britney. The energy was off the charts! They gave it their all, every flick of the wrist, every death drop.

Both performances were fierce, but RuPaul had to make the tough choices. It's like choosing between pizza and tacos – both amazing, but you can only pick one!

The Final Showdown

After those epic battles, Symone and Kandy Muse moved on to the final lip sync for the crown. The song? "Till the World Ends" by Britney Spears. Iconic choice, Ru!

These two queens left it all on the stage. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, high kicks, and wig reveals that would make your head spin. They poured every ounce of their passion into that performance.

Kandy Muse brought her signature energy, serving attitude and sass. It was a reminder that drag is about being unapologetically yourself, even when things get tough.

Symone, on the other hand, brought her artistry and grace. She commanded the stage with every move, telling a story with her body and face. It was captivating!

And the Winner Is...

After what felt like an eternity (seriously, my popcorn ran out!), RuPaul announced the winner. Drumroll, please! Symone took home the crown!

The room erupted in cheers! Symone's victory was a win for artistry, for representation, and for anyone who's ever dared to dream big. It was a beautiful moment.

While Kandy Muse didn't win the crown, she won our hearts. Her journey throughout the season was a testament to her resilience and growth. She proved that you don't need to be perfect to be fabulous.

Season 13: A Wrap!

Season 13 was a wild ride, wasn't it? We laughed, we cried, we gagged at the runway looks. The queens brought their A-game, and we were all better for it.

From Olivia Lux’s infectious smile to Utica Queen’s... unique fashion choices, this season had it all. It was a reminder that drag is an art form, a form of expression, and a celebration of individuality.

So, let’s raise a glass (of water, because hydration is key!) to Symone, our reigning queen, and to all the queens of Season 13. They gave us a season to remember. Shantay, you all stay!
