At the end of episode 5 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on January 27, Amethyst and Salina EsTitties were named the bottom two for the week, failing to inspire and impress the judges with their design challenge runway looks. Third time was not the charm for Amethyst, who was asked to “sashay away” following her third Lip Sync for Your Life in five episodes. Do you think Amethyst was the right queen picked for elimination in “House of Fashion”? Vote in our poll below to tell us if the judges made the right choice.
Who deserved to go home in episode 5?
Typically dreaded by casts, the queens were faced with their first design challenge of the season. Amethyst was one of a handful of girls that did not feel confident behind a sewing machine and required assistance from her teammates in both construction and vision. She knew that she’d be at high risk of going home if she fell into the bottom again after already having to lip sync twice for the judges. Despite the help and putting together something respectable, Amethyst’s golden draped look did not meet the high standards of the House of Visage.
The judges were equally unimpressed by Salina’s look within the House of Kressley. Aside from the ill-fitting pieces, they thought Salina’s garment was over-designed and that she would have benefitted from focusing on one part of it really well. Also in the bottom three was Jax, who was applauded for the difficult items she managed to make, but dinged for not understanding fit and design in a way that would elevate her concept. Ultimately, Jax was saved from having to lip sync.
Did the judges make the right choice sending Amethyst and Salina to the LSFYL, and was Amethyst most deserving between the two of going home?
