Saying that last week's episode of 'Untucked' would be an understatement, seeing that Kandy Muse and Tamisha Iman really went at it. When me latter made a comment about arrogance versus confidence, Kandy Muse seemed up in arms ready to fight - she got extremely defensive about her drag. The fight was carried out later to the Werk Room, when Olivia Lux brought it up again, with Kandy accusing Tamisha of calling her arrogant while Tamisha defended her words saying that even though she was talking about safe queens, her comment was not aimed at Kandy. 


The tension seems to have spilled over to the latest episode of 'Drag Race' - when the queens were asked to split into teams, everyone was quick to leave Tamisha and Elliott, resulting in them teaming up. Even in the Werk Room Gottmik, Tina Burner and Kandy Muse christened themselves as the 'Mean Girls' and Tamisha's distaste for this little clique was clear as day. This episode really put the older queen to the test, seeing that it was a dancing challenge and although that has never really been a hindrance for Tamisha, seeing that she'd just beat stage 3 colon cancer merely 6 months. To add to it, she also had a colostomy bag, one that the other participants weren't aware about it. It was not easy watching her brave through it, especially knowing just how much she was struggling. But her determined attitude to see this through was inspiring.

Unfortunately, Tamisha's performance landed her in the bottom. As the bottom queens headed back to the 'Untucked' lounge, the question hung in the air, would Kandy and Tamisha be the ones to face off against each other? Turns out, both queens anticipated it. We had our fingers crossed- seeing that they previously lashed out against each other, there was a good chance that the animosity would repeat itself on the stage. But turns out, the queens had reconciled and buried the hatchet - both of them were ready to lip-sync for their lives. Tamisha ended up going home - and fans were quick to take to Twitter to express how they felt she was robbed. "I have never ever EVER yelled at @RuPaul watching #DragRace. Until tonight. Kandy was not good her first lip sync and tonight was a repeat of pointing, walking around and that open mouth frog face and I dont get it. At all. @TamishaIman1 better get All Stars!" tweeted a fan. "Sign the petition to get #Tamisha Iman on the judges panel of RuPaul’s Drag Race where she belongs! @TamishaIman1" said another. "@TheKandyMuse could learn a thing or two from @TamishaIman1 — and I ain’t talking about the lip-synch! #classyqueen #DragRace @RuPaulsDragRace #TeamTamisha #respect" tweeted a fan. "The lady said go home, but Tamisha Iman is so much bigger than six episodes of TV. She is living history. She is the moment, eternally. Empires fall, the Iman Dynasty is forever. Now go buy her sneakers and doormat merch. #DragRace," said another






 

Tamisha joked about coming back for an all-stars season, and honestly, we have our fingers crossed! She even took to Twitter to share some words of wisdom herself - "Never allow your situations to hold you from you getting to your Destination just remember to enjoy the Ride. Love Mother Of The Iman DYNASTY."
