How 'RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars' judges missed the mark with their timid approach
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In the latest episode of 'RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars', the judges were overly positive and avoided giving any critical feedback. Instead of pointing out mistakes or areas for improvement, they focused only on praising the queens.
Even though some performances had glaring errors, the judges chose to overlook these issues and only spoke about the positives. This meant that every act received enthusiastic compliments, without any useful critiques. While positive feedback can be encouraging, it also meant that the contestants didn’t get the honest, constructive comments they needed to improve. By not addressing the flaws in performances, the judges missed a chance to help the queens grow and improve their skills.

'RuPaul's Drag Race Global All Stars' judges accused of favoritism in debut episode
In the debut episode of 'RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars', judges RuPaul Charles, Michelle Visage, and Jamal Sims faced accusations of favoritism. The controversy centers around their decision to award the top spots to Alyssa Edwards and Kween Kong, despite some viewers and fans feeling that there were stronger performances by other contestants, particularly Kitty Scott-Claus.
Kitty Scott-Claus delivered a standout performance with her glamorous pink outfit and impressive dance moves, which many felt deserved a top spot. However, she was placed at the bottom instead. On the other hand, Alyssa Edwards, who has a history with RuPaul and has appeared on the show multiple times, was awarded the top spot alongside Kween Kong.
This decision led to speculation that Alyssa’s previous relationship with RuPaul might have influenced the judges's choices. This sparked debate about whether favoritism played a role in the process.
