Jaida Essence Hall's win has social media divided. There's a section that's hailing her crowning moment, while the rest cannot stop fretting over how it was Gigi Goode who was more deserving of the glory. Meanwhile, fans of Crystal Methyd have other reasons to rejoice.  She was one of the top three finalists of 'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12 and fans cannot stop talking about how stellar her finale performances were. But that's not the only reason why they are celebrating. 

Soon after Jaida won, Crystal shared the winning post (as uploaded by the show's official Twitter page) with a caption that read: "#TeamJaida." Most thought it was a sign that showed how much of a "good competitor" Crystal has been and hoped that Gigi would do the same that fans can stop hating on Jaida for winning the series fair and square. Crystal's gesture was taken kindly by the internet and within minutes of posting, the tweet was flooded with positive comments. Not surprisingly, most fans said how Crystal may not have been crowned the queen but she won their hearts through her earnestness and talent.

Her journey may have been a rocky road with just one win over the weeks but she proved her worth with her offbeat costuming and makeup skills. Her comic timing and comedy sketches also became one of the major highlights of the show, making her one of the underdogs that isn't to be messed around with. Meanwhile, fans are all praises for Crystal showing support to Jaida on social media. "This is a good example of a good competitor I hope Gigi at least speak to her fans and ask them to chill cause the hate is real," a fan commented, while another shared: "QUEENS SUPPORTING QUEENS Love you so much Crystal." She was also called a "legend" and a "supportive sister" by viewers. 

"CRYSTAL congratulations you are an amazing creative individual and your potential knows no bounds. Can't wait to see what you do and I wish you all the very best," a user tweeted. "Love you so much Crystal!!! You've won my heart and many other people's hearts as well. You're MY winner baby! Forever," another expressed. "I’ve never connected to and loved a rugirl as much As I do with you. I cannot wait to see you live one day when corona isn’t such a pressing issue," a viewer wrote.
