Eva Le Queen finishes ‘Global All Stars’ journey early in 10th place
MANILA, Philippines – Filipino drag queen Eva Le Queen ends her RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars journey early in 10th place. She was eliminated in the show’s fifth episode which premiered on Friday, September 6.
She sashayed away after Mexico’s Gala Varo beat her in a lipsync performance of A-ha’s “Take On Me.”
Eva said in an X post that she was “truly overwhelmed” by the love she has received for her Global All Stars journey.
“And now that my Global All Stars journey has ended, I have a new dream — to travel and experience drag around the world and write about it in a coffee book,” she added.
Her fellow Global All Stars queens showed Eva love in a separate Instagram post highlighting her “Brown Town” runway look that was shown in Friday’s episode.
Eva landed in the bottom two for the acting challenge where the Global All Stars queens took on roles for “Boobie: The Shequels” trailers. The trailers showed contestants spoofing popular movies Frankenstein, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Jurassic Park.
Eva played the role of Pitchfork Boobie who is described as a nosy, annoying neighbor.
The judges said that Eva’s portrayal was inconsistent, with choreographer Jamal Sims saying she would “fall out of character” in the “FrankenBoobie” trailer.
Before her lipsync performance, Eva got emotional after the judges’ critiques as she felt the pressure to represent the Philippines well in the competition.
“I didn’t come 30 hours away from the Philippines to be here — not to give my all. I’ll get ready for the fight of my life,” she said.
Eva started strong in the competition, landing in the top two of the show’s second episode for her rice cooking and sword fighting skit for her “Global Glamazon Talent Extravaganza” show. She was safe in the next two episodes before her elimination.
Nine queens remain in the running for a chance to become the first winner of Global All Stars, win $200,000, and a spot in the International Pavilion of the Drag Race Hall of Fame. – Rappler.com
