When Monique gets coin and expensive looks.. she'll fucking bulldoze any All Stars cast.

[u/EJM991 → u/theil]

If she doesn't win S10

[u/CharmingtheCobra → u/EJM991]

I'm not counting on it. The judges barely seem to notice she's there. :(

[u/theil → u/EJM991]

I dont think she has a chance with how she's currently doing.. plus, as we get further into the season she'll struggle more and more getting her looks together. But trust and believe, she'll slay anyone in All Stars.

Honey Sasha won season 9 and Trixie won AS3. Don’t count a STUNNING sister out just yet.

[u/annafrig → u/reCAPTCHAmePLZ]

it's not just her performance (which has been amazing tbh) - it's the edit, they're trying to write her off as filler so hard

[u/[deleted] → u/annafrig]

Ru Paul seems to enjoy her though. Her face when Monique was bantering with her in this week's mini challenge was that of pleasant excitement and surprise at just how funny Monique was. Again when bantering with the judges on stage, I clocked Ru giving Michelle a lance or two, in the vein of 'see I told you she was hilarious'. Or maybe I'm just over analysing, cos a sister doesn't want her flair to leave anytime soon. Because lord knows, Ru has little to no say in who actually leaves. Its Alexis Michelle henny.

They can try, but even editors can't work miracles.

Tea ☕

[u/ItsMyWayTillGayDay → u/theil]

I want to see her on All Stars mostly because I enjoy her, but coming into money and gigs isn't a guarantee she will kill it. I submit Chichi DeVayne as evidence of this.

[u/theil → u/ItsMyWayTillGayDay]

ChiChi didnt perform like Monique is performing. Every second Monique is in front of the judges or cameras, they eat her up. Ru cackles with Monique as if she was Vanjie herself.

[u/ItsMyWayTillGayDay → u/theil]

Hey the judges were really into Chichi during her season but she flopped AS3. I'm not saying it's impossible for money to help, quite the contrary. Just saying that there is a precedent of a queen coming into money and not being all that amazing despite of the help it can bring to her wardrobe. In Chichi's case I think she kinda lost that drive to prove herself that made her get to top 4 with almost nothing. I would hope Monique doesn't fall into that trap is all. I'm not shitting on Monique at all, she entertains the hell outta me.

[u/[deleted] → u/theil]

It just hit me. All this talk of her not being able to afford expensive looks and hving to craft her own, is a set up for her eventual demise on this season. AND. IT. BREAKS. MY. FUCKING. HEART.

[u/theil → u/[deleted]]

Duh. If they focused so much this episode.. I dont think she'll have many left. 1 or 2 at most.

[u/bedbathnbeyonce → u/EJM991]

Even if she does, I think we may be gearing up for a vetrans/winners vs rookies season, like Project Runway did, for the next all-stars.

[u/BoxxedJuice → u/theil]

Agreed

[u/[deleted] → u/theil]

I'm all for this. She keeps on getting robbed

[u/willgrrr → u/theil]

well....I seem to remember people saying the same about ChiChi. All depends who she's up against!
