    Natalia Azoqa (David vs Goliath)


    Natalia came 16th during David vs Goliath, which is probably why I barely remember her. How is there still so much female fodder left? Anyway, she started out on the Goliath tribe, as an Industrial Engineer. The Goliath tribe won the first two immunities, but lost the third. Natalia joined the majority to vote out Jeremy Crawford, who was seen as a physical threat down the line.

     

    The next week, the tribes swapped and Natalia joined Vuku. When they lost immunity, she tried to plot against Elizabeth, but Elizabeth joined up with David and Alec and they managed to blindside Natalia, who left the game upset and frustrated. Since she was a pre-merge boot, I don’t have much else to say about her so :kissbye:

    Canada's Drag Race

    If you haven't yet, watch the Drag Ball:

     

    There's some great lip-syncs in it, especially my Top 7, in my opinion.

     

    After watching the Drag Ball, my pre-season ranking of the queens is as follows:

    1. Tynomi Banks - Definite Jaida vibes. Her lipsync to "Confident" said it ALL. She knows who she is and isn't afraid to be herself. Can't wait for her to slay.

    2. Priyanka - I mean, a Marina lip-sync that was legit hilarious and had multiple great looks including a Jasmine from Aladdin look? Plus she's from Toronto and was the only queen I knew about before the show so, definitely one to watch.

    3. Kyne - Gave me Manila vibes with her "Don't Leave Me This Way" lip-sync. So much humour and the Thelma look was a definite toot.

    4. Rita Baga - One of the most experienced queens in the bunch and it SHOWS. Her looks in her lip-sync were all on point and the fact that she chose a French song I'd never heard of and made me love it. She's definitely got skills.

    5. Anastarzia Anaquaway - I loved that she went there with her lip-sync. It shows she's not afraid to get political and vocal. Hopefully the show respects that and doesn't do what they did to the Vixen. Also her look during the ball was gorgeous.

    6. Jimbo -  Aqua is a CLASSIC and she put her own spin and humour on it which showed who she is. I don't think she'll win because her drag isn't the kind of "high drag" the show usually goes for, but she'll be a fun contestant, for sure.

    7. Ilona Verley - Love that she's open about being two-spirit and Indigenous. I expected her to draw on that for her lip-sync, but she slayed that Miley look.

    8. BOA - She gives me Sh*rry P*e vibes, but I loved her Jays drag look and I love that she did her whole video on a green screen and chose a classic gay anthem.

    9. Lemon - Her lipsync was low quality, but her instagram is on point and she's from New York, so you know she's going to bring it.

    10. Juice Boxx - Her lip-sync wasn't anything special and was kind of boring. I get that she was paying homage to Gaga, but I was hoping for a little bit of humour or twist to it like Jimbo did. I did like her Canada flag look though and she seems sweet but very shy.

    11. Kiara - I love Finally and loved her look in her video, but the song is also really repetitive and goes nowhere, so it didn't give her much room to grow with it. Unfortunately, she also screamed fodder to me. She's one of the youngest, so it wouldn't surprise me if she's still finding her drag identity.

    12. Scarlett BoBo - I didn't think her "Get this Party Started" lip-sync really made her standout. I was definitely hoping for more.

    Hali Ford (Worlds Apart, Game Changers)

    333?cb=20170208190939

    Hali was a law student that first appeared on the No Collar (Nagarote) tribe in Worlds Apart. She placed 11th, become the second merge boot and the first Jury member. She formed an alliance on Nagarote with Jenn Brown and Joe Anglim and the three of them managed to control the vote in the two weeks they went to tribal, getting rid of Vince and Nina in the process. After the tribe swap, Hali was still with Jenn and Will. They teamed up with Carolyn from the No Collars and voted out Max.
     

    After the merge, Hali and her alliance of Jenn, Joe and Will were in trouble and as tribal loomed. Jenn, however, had an Idol that saved her and, instead, sent Kelly packing. The next week, Joe won immunity so the majority looked for an alternative target and since Hali was one of his closest allies, she became their target and she was ousted. In the end, she voted for Mike Holloway to win.

     

    Hali returned four seasons later in Game Changers, where she placed 13th. She started out on the Mana tribe, who lost immunity the first two weeks and voted out Ciera and Tony before the tribe swap. She stayed on Mana with her ally Caleb, but the two of them were on the outside and Caleb went home the next week. Although Hali seemed like the next to go, the next tribal was a joint one where Malcolm was blindsided after Tai played an Idol for Sierra. Then another tribe swap happened and she remained on Mana again, surviving there until the merge thanks two their two immunity wins. After the merge, Hali became the target after Cirie and Zeke hustled hard to save Michaela, which sealed her fate and made her, once again, the merge boot and first jury member. In the end, Hali again voted for the winner of that season, Lacina.

     

    I liked Hali when I first saw her on WA but as the season wore on, my affection towards her faded and having her return for Game Changers seemed pointless. Then again, GC is pretty pointless. So I’m fine to cut her here.
