'Drag Race Philippines' episode 10 recap: You're a winner, baby (Rappler)

The Philippines' first-ever drag reality show comes to an end with an emotional, empowering lipsync battle.

It didn’t come without a hitch, and there are lots of things to be improved upon, but ultimately, we’re celebrating the long-overdue spotlight that now shines on the Philippines’ hardworking drag queens, finally. Eva holds her own as she dances across the stage, but in the end, the winner is clear even before Mamwa Pao announces that Precious gets to shantay. In her parting words, she says: “Life is precious and so are we. Xilhouete wears a flouncy assymetrical gown made of piña fabric and accesorizes with a taxidermied headdress. Precious serves a Dinagyang-inspired neon look made from local materials. Lady Morgana is named the first Drag Race Philippines Miss Congeniality – cue one big chorus of “Dasuuurv” – and in true Morgana fashion, she moves viewers to tears with her heartfelt speech that ended with her giving everyone a “Dalaygon.” Then comes Marina and Xilhouete’s battle, set appropriately to “Call Me Mother.” Marina starts off wearing a heavy tulle dress, but steps out of it soon enough to reveal a feathered and stoned bodysuit that allows her to vogue and strut and twirl all over the stage. Determined by the spin of the wheel, Precious Paula Nicole is paired against Eva Le Queen for the first lipsync round, leaving recently-reconciled drag mother and daughter Xilhouete and Marina to go at it in round two. Marina also goes the piña route in an evening gown made of the fabric, beaded with capiz, and accentuated with a banig train. Marina Summers walks out tsinelas-purse first with a relatively plain look inspired by tumbang preso – a red tight mini dress, a “Sana Marina Corned tuna” de lata headdress, and a pair of tsinelas with which to quickly play the game on stage. For the first look, category is: “Bongga Camp ‘Day” and Precious Paula Nicole kicks off the runway, walking in a ball gown inspired by the Girl Scouts of the Philippines. In true Drag Race fashion, the show’s main host Paolo Ballesteros emerges in a big red ballgown and turns out her own lipsync performance to Zsa Zsa Padilla’s quintessentail ‘80s hit “Point of No Return” – complete with a ruveal into a mosaic bodysuit.
