RuPaul's Drag Race Season 3, Episode 10 Recap: The Music Business Is A Drag

In this episode of RuPaul's Drag Race, the queens had to tackle RuPaul's new single "Superstar" in several different genres of music.  At the beginning of the episode, everyone is on edge because no one was eliminated the previous episode and so they are not really sure about where they stand with the judges.  For the first challenge, the queens had to play a game of musical chairs: Manila Luzon won the challenge and got to choose the order by which the queens would pick their music genre.  The genre affects how they would sing RuPaul's single in the studio and how they would perform on stage.  Manila won and she chose "disco" for herself.  Shangela was picked last and she was left with "Country".  The queens then went in to the studio with RuPaul's producer Lucien and had to record their songs in their respective genres.  Frankly, they all sounded awful.  the next day, they were given MP3 players to practice lipsynching their songs for the elimination.  Several of the queens looked great during the performance (especially Manila and Carmen), but their singing fell flat.  Raja nailed the elimination with her perfect punk performance, which included classic Doc Martens.  Raja won the week's challenge and Shangela and Carmen were up for elimination.  Although Shangela's lipsynch for her life was not the greatest, she completely out shined Carmen, who looked like she was bored and ready to go home.  Now there are only two "Heathers" left and the competition is stiffer than ever (pun intended!).

Manila Luzon looked the part of "Disco" but her performance fell flat.  She was saved from elimination.
