RuPaul's Drag Race never fails when it comes down dazzling us with glitter, glitz, and just enough drama. Season 17 was jam-packed with those jaw-dropping double saves and unexpected plot twists we've all come accustomed too. But let's face it, Arrietty's fiery departure really took center stage. Known and loved (or despised) on-screen, this queen's emotional breakdown post-elimination had everyone talking, from superfans on social media, her fellow contestants, and even Arrietty herself, who recently spilled all about that wild experience.
Arrietty got caught in a whirlwind during that infamous "Villains' Roast" episode. Rumors flew that she had cribbed a few jokes from Jewels Sparkles, who finished as season runner-up. Getting eliminated was one thing, but it was Arrietty's parting shot that truly stole headlines. Her final sassy barb aimed at winner Onya Nurver, "As one smelly 'b' word!**' (you know what she said) "to another, Onya, please brush your teeth," became an instant classic, sparking heated discussions online. Did she go too far? Well, you decide.
On "Exposed: After Dark" with Joseph Shepherd, Arrietty opened up about what really happened during her meltdown. "Y'all saw how unhinged I was," she admitted, revealing that we didn't see everything. Apparently, some intense footage got left on cutting room floor. She described herself in crisis mode, dramatically comparing her unravelling moment with Avatar: The Legend Of Aang's Azula. Her raw honesty gave us a rare glimpse behind those glittery curtains, showing just how tough drag competitions can be on a person.
Even though Arrietty left with a bang, she let us know she and Onya have patched things up. They're "gucci" now, as she shared online, reassuring fans they're on good terms. But wait, there's more. Arrietty's drama train didn't stop there. She ended up in a full-blown online feud with All Stars 10 queen and her former drag mother, Irene The Alien. Of course, fans couldn't get enough, gobbling up every turn and twist from this latest saga.
All eyes are now firmly on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10, gearing up on Paramount+ in May 9th. With excitement at fever pitch, fans are buzzing about what surprises await. Who's coming back? Which twists will blow our minds? Time will tell, but one thing's certain - it's going be a wild ride!
In wrap up, Arrietty's emotional ride and unforgettable departure from Drag Race season 17 will remain a standout moment in show's history. Her candid insights shed light on intense pressures these queens face. So, what do you think about Arrietty's story?
