The drama between Asia O'Hara, Naomi Smalls, and Derrick Barry keeps reaching newer heights every episode. This week's fight that caused Asia to storm out of a slumber party could have been avoided if only Derrick had kept quiet about Asia's comment on Naomi being the weakest link.

It was a conversation to be had between Naomi and Asia, who once had a great equation but that started to fade when Naomi pulled away and started to hang out with Derrick more. Even though Derrick appeared concerned for Naomi the latter was surprised that she would even bring it up while they were winding up a game of Truth or Dare.

Asia was in tears while defending her comment and decided to leave the party after Derrick spilled the beans on Naomi wanting to change her dressing room because Asia apparently brings a negative vibe into it. This pushed Asia to the edge and she was more than ready to go home. Although the ladies tried to stop her and make her realize that the chat was important for everyone and it was for everyone to know how each one felt about what went down, Asia was not interested at all. She took off her mic and left. Meanwhile, fans are upset about Asia being cornered, perhaps.

"Wow, could they take Asia off the show for leaving the dressing room? #DragRaceVegas," a fan commented, while another shared: "I hate the negative edit Asia is getting. She is a beautiful, talented, honest and inspirational queen. She does not deserve this kind of treatment."



 



 

"They love giving the Black Queens the negative edit #DragRaceVegas," a viewer tweeted, to which another responded: "Always. That’s why I hate VH-1. You want to support your people but this BS right here." 



 



 

"Derrick was wrong as hell. Doing way too much & Naomi should have shut that down. Poor Asia. That was such a bullshit ass scene. #DragRaceVegas," a viewer tweeted. "They can’t ask Asia to relax when they ambushed her, what did you want her to do, lie? Go back on her word? She’s your friend not your fan. Derrick needs to shut up and Naomi needs to tell people shit to their face. #DragRaceVegas #RuPaulsDragRaceVegasRevue #Vegasrevue," another pointed out.
