The grand finale of ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ Season 15 might’ve been overstuffed (and a little unfair), but its winner was destined for greatness from the moment she arrived.
All of that attitude and confidence successfully made Season 15 into the monumental, supersized season that host RuPaul claimed it would be in January’s season premiere. But it’s this round’s Top 4 queens who really exemplify a winner’s must-have qualities: Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent. Sasha Colby, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Luxx Noir London, and Anetra all brought something completely unique to the competition.
After the reintroduction of the eliminated Season 15 queens, the finale wasted no time getting right into the original performances. Up first was Anetra, who preceded her original song “Lotus,” by saying, “I think it’s important to represent for drag and drag artists right now, because drag is freedom … It’s place where we get to erase ourselves and build ourselves up again, and be whoever we want to be.
That’s exactly what Anetra did, stepping out of her natural shyness and into full drag character for her performance. Anetra was followed by Luxx, who slayed her original number titled, “It’s Giving Fashion.” After Luxx, Mistress Isabelle Brooks—whose momentum and fiercely funny candor has kept the season perfectly paced—dropped her guard to talk about how important it was for her to represent for people like herself.
“I represent for the plus sized girls. I put on for Houston, Texas. But, most importantly, I’m representing for anyone who’s ever been told they couldn’t. In typically hilarious fashion, Mistress killed her song, “Delusion,” closing the chapter on the now-legendary phrase “drag delusion,” which she coined early in the season.
The producers saved the fan-favorite for last. When a team of dancers brought Sasha Colby onstage clad in a fabric snake-tail, lifting her out of it to perform the absolutely jaw-dropping number “GODDESS,” it was no question that Sasha would be one of the final contestants fighting for the prize. But all four performances confirmed exactly what we already knew: Each one of these four queens is a mother-tucking star.
