After weeks of lipsticks and eliminations, the finale of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3 is here! By the end of the hour, three more queens got the chop and one walked away with the grand prize. Who was that lucky queen?
The Top 2 queens were voted in by a jury of their peers: The eliminated contestants! Shangela, the current reigning front-runner after Ben DeLaCreme quit, got knocked out in fourth place followed by BeBe Zahara Benet in third place.
The vote results weren't the only shocking developments during the finale. Making up the rest of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3 Episode 8 included the biggest performance in Drag Race herstory, the return of the eliminated queens, and a queen who couldn't jump.
Below, we picked out nine moments from "A Jury of Their Queers" that left us just as shocked and excited as Trixie Mattel. (Just look at her expression down below!) What was your favorite moment?
9.
Thirsty Trixie
RuPaul's Drag Race can be a tough competition; you have to find ways to relax and take your mind off the game. Trixie, in this instance, was crushing hard for one of the back-up dancers that Todrick Hall brought for the performance. She wanted that man and she was smiling from ear-to-ear in her confessionals about Brayden.
8.
"I Hate Heights."
Did BeBe truly hate heights or was it more so that she couldn't jump? Regardless of whatever the former winner tried to do, she could never nail her trick into the air. Her awkwardness was fun, but it was the reactions of her competitors and Todrick Hall that made the moment hilarious. They were blown away at how bad she was at jumping.
7.
Respect For Morgan
You can always count on Trixie to throw a little light-hearted shade at someone. When BeBe asked Trixie to reveal her elimination vote, Trixie got the perfect opportunity to make fun of BeBe's faux-pas from RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3 Episode 7. Note to future queens: Just reveal your votes! No one cares who you were planning to vote.
6.
Practicing Poses
BeBe was ready to snatch the crown and take her photo for the Drag Race Hall of Fame. We were treated to one of the best confessionals of her practicing her ideal pose. She probably had that look ready to go for weeks now.
5.
Jaw Dropped
There have been plenty of facecracks in RuPaul's Drag Race herstory. However, Trixie might have made the biggest jaw drop yet. When Todrick revealed the size of the Kitty Girl performance, Trixie couldn't control her excitement and shock for the news. She was equally ready for the challenge and also surprised.
4.
Judge, Jury & Executioner
The jury had a lot of power on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3 Episode 8. A group of six queens would have the votes to decide the Top 2, who would then lip sync for their legacy. The reveal of the jury was shocking because we haven't had a jury yet and EVERYTHING that was done before this moment would help determine who the eliminated queens might cut. Shangela was right, you needed to build your alliances strong.
3.
Shangela Shocker
Speaking of Shangela, her not making the Top 2 was possibly one of the most shocking moments during all of RuPaul's Drag Race Season 3. She was the front-runner, made the alliances and seemed like a sure bet toward making the finals. After Ben DeLaCreme left, Shangela had the game in her hands. Though, her elimination goes to show that you have to adapt with the changing game. The eliminated queens had power and they didn't send it her way.
2.
Trixie Wins!
Who else was rooting for Trixie Mattel? We had ranked her as the most likely to win RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 3, so to see that it became a reality made us smile. Trixie is a star and she's deserving of the title. All of the queens did an amazing job, and while a Final 2 battle between Shangela vs. Trixie would've been epic, we can't complain about getting one of the winners.
1.
Kitty Girl (Remix)
EVERYTHING about this performance was incredible! The set design, the choreography and the added extra touches made this a moment that Drag Race fans will never forget. All four of the queens were at the top of their game and delivered a show. Though, we couldn't help but notice a few slip ups, like BeBe still failing to jump, but that doesn't matter right now. Kitty Girl (Remix) is being played on repeat over and over again!
