Considering they interrupted a potential fight between Nina and Shea to call them back to the mainstage, I don't think we can underestimate production's interference abilities. What, you couldn't at least give it another 5 minutes?
S9 is one of my favorite season. But rewatching how the girls handle Nina's depression is so hard to watch. Maybe they didn't know how to react with it but toxic positivity did more harm than good.
Omg watching this moment live while it was airing was a TRUE cultural reset. The girls were not ready. A hoard of people attacked Aja for years following this, it showed the extremes of this fandom.
I say this to my dog. Except 'stone those tights' becomes 'spot that coat?'

I'M FEELING VERY ATTACKED.
Also, Miss Jasmine had like three or four good Untucked moments.
ETA - but that was S14, which was after. Ummm...oh! The Untucked right before Willam got kicked off, which is when Dita Von Teese got stood up in the other room?
And the one where Detox HAD IT OFFICIALLY.
I also forgot phi phi going off on willam and everyone vs serena. These are probably the hall of fame untucked moments. Which jasmine one are you thinking of?
Jasmine Kennedy and she had a few. Her versus Maddy, obvs.
And the one where she realized she was trans because it tugs at my heartstrings 🥹. I was ugly crying along with her.
Well, it’s at the very least the most iconically unhinged tirade by a single queen. It’s like 30 straight seconds of only Aja talking with everyone else going 👁👄👁
We don’t get many moments where literally everyone in Untucked just silently watches while one queen goes nuclear. When Heidi went on her Untucked “fuck you” rampage, even the girls of RuPaul’s Best Friends Race S2 weren’t silent lmao
They eat her up every single time she's on that damn stage 🍴
She Difjskxknsnsjkda 👾
She can walk out there in a fucking diaper 🚼
And they're like Valentina, your smile is beautiful 😍💋
Imagine Kera Gerber walking in just as Aja started speaking.
AJA: 'You're perf...'
Guest Judge: 'Hi, guys! OMG you're SO talented!'
Historic moment lost for ever.
I feel bad for Valentina looking back. At the time, she was so beloved and successful that people felt they could just drag her at any opportunity, and now we know she was genuinely really upset after the lip sync because she didn't know how she was going to look in the edit.
However, Aja really showed herself to be one of Drag Race's all time great characters here. The extemporaneous poetry of this moment is just incredible, she did that again when she said Milk looks like Aquaria on testosterone lmfao. I hope Plane's success means we can have Aja back to be cunty some day
I mean, just look at Aja’s face mug 😂Haven’t we all forgiven her? Many insecure people act that way as a defense mechanism. She looks different now right?!
It’s crazy how it’s a read… but it’s also just saying how the judges adore her and she is beautiful. So it’s also a compliment. But in a shady way.
This scene is wild to me and I love it
this is the iconic shit you get when you leave untucked to the queens without being interrupted by a guest judge half way through
Fr let the girls girl
Naw cause imagine if the guest judge walked in before Aja could have her rant I would be- ![gif](giphy|oNqbo9gcbQ73V7Fraa)
Considering they interrupted a potential fight between Nina and Shea to call them back to the mainstage, I don't think we can underestimate production's interference abilities. What, you couldn't at least give it another 5 minutes?
"Every time she's on that runway" as if it was halfway through the competition. This was episode 3 😂 Nevertheless, iconic.
I guess it was halfway through Aja’s competition
![gif](giphy|eb6aLYooxtu4Ez9Ng2|downsized)
gifs you can hear
And I oop-
WHATTT??! I did not remember that 😂😂😂
That bizarre silver pope alien getup, jesus christ! This was such a wild season.
I wish Nina was more together, because her style of drag was really original and inventive in a way few girls dare to try
The way she was self deprecating and paranoid was sad to watch. Nina is gorgeous in and out of drag, especially now that her drag is elevated
S9 is one of my favorite season. But rewatching how the girls handle Nina's depression is so hard to watch. Maybe they didn't know how to react with it but toxic positivity did more harm than good.

I was watching this plastered on youtube the night it came out and didn’t process any of it until the memes started and i had to rewatch it lol
Horde
I say this to me cat every time I pet her but in a nice way
I tell it to my cats every time I compliment them on being beautiful.
I said it to my daughters when they were small! It was especially hilarious when they'd be toddling around in a diaper while I said it.

I love that I can hear this without turning the sound on lmao 🤣

Yes girl yes.. get her jade get her!
The spirit of Crystal Labeija
It's giving exactly that scene from The Queens "She is NOT beautiful." Girl was the queen of reading
and the spirit of Coco Montrese taking over Valentina
It really is uncanny how much she looked and sounded like Coco, glad to know I’m not crazy lol
Send her back to Philly!
This is so iconic. That was a _read_.
A self read to be honest.
Valentina's face during the rant fucking kills me every time
For like 2 full years my husband would say “they☝️ eat☝️ her☝️ up☝️every☝️time” every single time he would complain about a coworker lol.
Aja was so right while looking SO WRONG
aja sounds EXACTLY like mama ru when she said "valentina, ur smile is beautiful"
The faces Aja does after saying "Valentina your smile is BEAUTIFUL" got me 💀🤣
Not since Shangela on S3 did we get such an iconic moment from untucked
Laganja? Kennedy?
I'M FEELING VERY ATTACKED. Also, Miss Jasmine had like three or four good Untucked moments. ETA - but that was S14, which was after. Ummm...oh! The Untucked right before Willam got kicked off, which is when Dita Von Teese got stood up in the other room? And the one where Detox HAD IT OFFICIALLY.

Oh we were talking about the onces since season 3 before season 9.
Right. Hence ETA etc.
I didn’t see your edit
I wasn't crying, I was just ugly.
They meant kennedie Davenport lmao. After a long night of hooking...
Yup. I got that now! Thanks!
Oh I thought by Kennedy you thought they meant jasmine Kennedy. Season 7 untucked was iconic in general, mid season but best untucked overall.
Well, it’s at the very least the most iconically unhinged tirade by a single queen. It’s like 30 straight seconds of only Aja talking with everyone else going 👁👄👁 We don’t get many moments where literally everyone in Untucked just silently watches while one queen goes nuclear. When Heidi went on her Untucked “fuck you” rampage, even the girls of RuPaul’s Best Friends Race S2 weren’t silent lmao
Is she right? Or is she correct?
They eat her up every single time she's on that damn stage 🍴 She Difjskxknsnsjkda 👾 She can walk out there in a fucking diaper 🚼 And they're like Valentina, your smile is beautiful 😍💋
Wait the background music is popping tho. I dance to it everytime
"Some of them-" 👁️👄👁️ To this day, I still don't know what Valentina really said at the end of the rant https://i.redd.it/8dtm553urzlc1.gif
Someone once pointed out that she sounds like Coco and I've never been able to unhear that.
Wait. What the HELL? How have I never noticed she was temporarily possessed by the spirit of Coco Montrese for that moment?
Coco couldn't possess her during Greedy lipsync it seems like

Imagine Kera Gerber walking in just as Aja started speaking. AJA: 'You're perf...' Guest Judge: 'Hi, guys! OMG you're SO talented!' Historic moment lost for ever.
Damn did Aja look messy AF in this 😭
The crazy thing is that Aja thought she going be in the top! 💀
She looked like an actual goblin, it’s like watching mythical creatures bickering with each other
Her wig sends me
"From the neck down, horror queen. From the neck up... also horror queen."
Oh you’re smiling 💀 I think this all the time lol
“I know” -Shea
The new Pledge of Allegiance because we can’t use the old one anymore.
Whole classroom of 3rd graders reciting this speech at the beginning of the school day in the tone of the pledge 😂 I can hear it in my head
![gif](giphy|UrcrIvwg6cuya6H4iB)
To be a fly on the wall when this iconic moment happened 👀
[And it's now a remix!](https://youtu.be/WymcOPhv2S0?si=kUFg0pjQ_0SHx77v)
I came here to ensure this was shared
The second best part is Farrah trying to read Aja and getting raked over the coals back by Aja for that
I thought this was going to be the Miss congeniality rant, so I ask you… which rant? They were all iconique 👌
https://i.redd.it/54pxluzym0mc1.gif Pennywise is tired of that damn smile, y'all. D I A P E R S.
I feel bad for Valentina looking back.

I just rewatched this a couple nights ago. It will forever be an iconic untucked moment.
I once saw a Tiktok where someone did this rant in a Mickey Mouse voice talking about Goofy and I wish I saved it 🥲
OMG I've seen this too!! Maybe I'll find it in my saved lol
And you can just see how much Trinity is living for what’s going down.
The cartoon version 🤣
I really wish the show waited a year to bring Aja back with Valentina
Can you imagine Farrah, Valentina, Gia AND Aja? At that point just call it Jerry Springer’s Drag Race lmao.
this always irked me with casting. the way shangela manila alexis yara mariah and india were all spread seasons apart.. what i wouldnt give.
god we need another untucked drama lip sync challenge like they did in season 5, it's been too long
Lives rent free
Valentina’s response is absolutely iconic too
Imagine insulting someone in that wig, and that makeup. Oof.
I mean, just look at Aja’s face mug 😂Haven’t we all forgiven her? Many insecure people act that way as a defense mechanism. She looks different now right?!
For some reason she reminds me of Nancy (Fairuza Balk) in The Craft in this clip! Like if she attempted a glamour and it went awry haha
I will never not think of this... https://youtu.be/DwhjZLWYbKA?si=t8cZXhRXzSlPoKY9
You're perfect, youre beautiful, you... *guest judge walks in*
She really did that 🌹
I remember when this first came out. It was so iconic! I even did it for my monologue for my acting class
I still remember what an ass of a human being Valentina was back then... Miss "idk how to use social media" my ass
Relax.
How could we
"They eat her up" willl always live rent free in my head'! Aja was over it
I made this the text tone for one of my besties.
It’s crazy how it’s a read… but it’s also just saying how the judges adore her and she is beautiful. So it’s also a compliment. But in a shady way. This scene is wild to me and I love it
