'Drag Race All Stars 8' Episode 5 Power Ranking
Eight queens are left standing on ‘All Stars 8’!
Paramount+
Though she had been dropping hints for a few episodes, no one believed that Heidi N Closet would actually quit RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 8. The reasons behind her quitting were also very upsetting given that it was a completely he-said-she-said situation. Not having N Closet in the werk room is a huge loss for this season.
But the show must go on, and All Stars 8 did deliver a spectacular Snatch Game with performances from Jimbo, Alexis Michelle, and Jaymes Mansfield. In turn, Kahanna Montrese and Jessica Wild fell in the bottom two, but Mama Ru decided to suspend eliminations given that N Closet had just quit the show.
Scroll through to check out our episode five power ranking of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 8 – and tune in to watch new episodes of the show every Friday on Paramount+.
7. Kahanna Montrese
\u201cShe's giving us a SHOW, girl! \ud83d\udd25 \n\n@Kahannamontrese is ready to roll the dice on #AllStars8 \u2013 streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \ud83c\udfb2\u2728\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004172
Despite winning the first maxi challenge of the season, Kahanna Montrese has now landed in the bottom twice. She also didn’t have stellar performances in episodes where she was deemed safe. Unless she completely surprises us in episode six, there’s a strong case as to why she might be the next eliminated queen of All Stars 8.
6. LaLa Ri
\u201cLiving her congenial fantasy! \ud83e\udd29 \n\nGet into the @MissLaLaRi experience when #AllStars8 starts streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \u2728\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004270
We had very high hopes for LaLa Ri when All Stars 8 first started. But five episodes in, Ms. Ri has yet to really impress the judges this season. She’s been deemed “safe” basically all season long, and hasn’t gotten close to winning a maxi challenge as of yet. Considering that we’re basically halfway through the season now, things aren’t looking great for the Miss Congeniality of season 13.
5. Kandy Muse
\u201cFrom the hood to Hollywood! \u2b50\ufe0f \n\n@TheKandyMuse is BACK when #AllStars8 starts streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \ud83d\udc85\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004210
Though she did have a couple of “high” placements, Kandy Muse has also been stuck in the “safe” zone throughout All Stars 8. As the runner-up of season 13, the fans and the judges had high expectations for Muse. Unfortunately, we’re all still waiting to see if she’s going to turn things around this season.
4. Alexis Michelle
\u201cShe's a good girl! \ud83d\ude0c\ud83c\udfa4 \n\n@AlexisLives returns on #AllStars8 \u2013 streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \u2b50\ufe0f\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004039
Alexis Michelle had an incredible performance in the Snatch Game, which was important for her to bounce back from her bottom placement in episode four. Much like Ri and Muse, Michelle is still struggling to win a maxi challenge on All Stars 8, but it does seem like she’s well-positioned to secure a win in the near future.
3. Jaymes Mansfield
\u201cDid you just say wig? \ud83d\udc87\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2640\ufe0f \n\nBlonde bombshell @jaymesmansfield joins #AllStars8 \u2013 streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus \ud83c\udf80\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004108
The judges have been loving Jaymes Mansfield this season, giving her a “high” placement in three of the five first episodes. She did land in the bottom during episode four, but that dip in performance didn’t seem to affect her overall track record so far. In fact, she was one of the best performers in the Snatch Game, so she’s been able to turn things around rather quickly.
2. Jessica Wild
\u201c\u00a1Escandalo! \ud83d\udca5 \n\n@JessicaWild88 is bringing the heat to #AllStars8 \u2013 streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \ud83d\udc60\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004123
The Snatch Game was the first big failure for Jessica Wild on All Stars 8. Otherwise, this queen has been killing it all season long and getting high praise from the judges. Even in episode five, despite her weak Snatch Game, Wild got a lot of positive critiques for her runway look and reveal, making it clear that this bottom placement wasn’t going to affect her too much… at least not yet, from what we can see.
1. Jimbo
\u201cOh wow! It's @jimbodragclown's special day! \ud83d\udde3\ufe0f \n\nDon't miss her on #AllStars8 \u2013 streaming MAY 12 on @paramountplus! \ud83d\udc93\u201d— RuPaul's Drag Race (@RuPaul's Drag Race) 1682004159
Jimbo has now won three maxi challenges on All Stars 8. She was already the frontrunner of the season, and she has now extended that lead even further. With so many queens who haven’t even won a single maxi challenge yet, there’s a lot of catching up to do if they want to beat Jimbo in this competition. Otherwise, one has to wonder if anyone would actually go through with picking Jimbo’s lipstick if she does land in the bottom in the near future.
