LaLa Ri.

Charity Lawson & Artem Chigvintsev and Tinashe have now been eliminated and @Solaris is responsible for their writeups.

 

@Zoey is up next to nominate 10 reality stars.

[Solaris]

Here I was thinking Charity was an easy save.

Charity & Artem and Tinashe going.  Two of my favorites from their respective shows.  Ugh it was difficult choosing between Charity and Layton but sighh.

 

Ugh now Sola making me regret my Posha save and maybe I should have let her last time go so Tinashe could have gotten the Stars on Mars win.

You targeting Charity and getting both her entries out.   (Though I get it may not have been your intention here).

[Solaris]

Tinashe

 

 

I knew Tinashe was done the moment I figured out what I wanted to for nominations.  I feel like she got to the Top 100 on her name alone, as I don't know anyone who is actively a fan of Stars on Mars.  I myself haven't seen it, which is why I have nominated both Tinashe and the remaining player from that show previously.  I have also been responsible for eliminating several of the cast and nominating more of it.  This show was a one and done, airing for its first and only season last year.  Tinashe was the Base Commander once (which I assume is like project manager from the Apprentice), and was Mission Specialist twice (which I will assume is like the MVP).  She made it all the way to the finals and was runner-up to Adam Rippon.  I will just assume she deserved to beat him.

Charity Lawson & Artem Chigvintsev 

 

 

I am going to look like the Charity hater, when I am responsible for both of her entries leaving the rankdown.  This was simply an eye for an eye.  Lily cut one of my immunities, so one of hers had to go.  I was expecting to do a Lala Ri write up when I did the nominations, but maybe Artems recent legal trouble has something to do with the duo not getting saved? Charity was solid on Dancing with the stars.  While I don't think she is one of the strongest bachelorettes the show has had, she did have several great performances and honestly she lowkey killed that finale and probably bumped herself up a spot with that Freestyle.  I was thinking she was drawing fifth going into the finals.  Based on the final night alone I would have bumped her up to runner-up.  With that said the audience didn't respond as hard and she left right after Alyson in 4th place.  Overall I would say she was a great addition to the cast, scoring a #1 spot on the leaderboard twice and had three perfect scores.  My personal favorite dances were her Rumba and Quickstep.  Those were followed by her Freestyle and Jive.

I only cut Charity because I’m more invested in Drag Race than her DWTS run. I don’t think I even know about Artem’s legal trouble but now I’m intrigued.

There are some articles about it online.  Nikki also filed for divorce I believe.

I watched Stars on Mars and really loved Tinashe on it. Of course I love her outside of the show, but also loved her on the show. She was pretty much one of the top/main stars of the show. She was a smart, strong and great competitor. LOL at assuming she should have won but yeah.... she most certainly should have.   I was bummed/disappointed she didn't win as she had the strongest game over everyone that season. Now I kinda regret my Porsha save as it denies Tinashe the win here for that season.  

Ughh nooww I feel so bad/terrible for not saving Charity & Artem. It's a bummer that my favorite from both DWTS/SCD were up but figured Layton would have needed the save more. Not sure if I'll regret that or not but only time will tell.   Sad to see Charity go as she did have a really strong and great run on the show. I know the connection/performing thing was an issue for her at the start but once she broke out of that, she had some really fantastic dances. Lovedd her Contemporary, Viennese Waltz, Argentine Tango, Rumba, Quickstep, Tango and Freestyle just to name a few.

BISHME CROMARTIE

Bishme Cromartie is the winner of Season 20 of Project Runway. This season featured fourteen designers from the first 19 seasons to return for an All-Stars season. Bishme had previously competed on season 17, where he placed 4th. He had a pretty solid run during Season 20, winning 3 challenges. He was only in the bottom 2 once, against Korto. Bishme is an extremely talented designer and deserved this win, no doubt. But, I was kinda hoping for Brittany or Laurence to win. So, Brittany may not have won the actual season, but she wins the Rankdown. I must admit that I didn't watch this season in full, but I like Brittany and Laurence so I'm bias. And now, I am seeing this design in the pic above, and I AM OBSESSED. Bishme is TALENTED!

Jordan Wiseley & Kaz Crossley

 

I took out Theo so I guess I'll take out his ex as well. Kaz and Jordan were the winners of The Challenge: World Championship. My reasoning for nominating these two was mostly because Kaz already has an appearance in this rankdown, where she also won. It's an easier cut to make with someone who's here more than once, and I'd prefer her to be here by herself. Because I've never been a big Jordan fan. He's fine, but I think he's one of the greatest of all time and he just never made a big impression on me. Likewise, I like Kaz but she wasn't a big personality for me on the show. I guess they were both just dominant competitors. And those don't always make the most entertaining of contestants.

Hannah Wright

 

Hannah wins her season of Love Island here so, good for her! I can't say I really know anything about her but she's really pretty. Side-note - I love that every Love Island season in this rankdown has ended up being won by a black girl! Deserved considering how often they get done dirty by these shows! Turns out Hannah actually won her own season of Love Island, something I did not realise lol. Poor girl I feel like she was on the show just before it popped off, because I feel like I know everything about the new season girls and I've not even watched it yet. Hannah paired up with Marco and the pair won Season 5 of the show. I think they're still together. Well, they have a joint Cameo account and it's still open, so I suppose it'd be awkward if they weren't.

Such a dumb show lmao but she ate!

GEORGE MLADENOV

George Mladenov originally competed on the Brains V Brawn season of Australian Survivor where he placed 2nd, losing to Queen Hayley. He then got invited back to compete on Heroes vs Villains, where he was rightfully so on the Villains tribe. That said, he is kinda a more likable villain. He managed to outlast Hayley this time around. However, he placed 4th. He kinda dominated and ate this season up though. Like, I can not lie, this was George's season to win (from what I hear), but I am glad that Liz won in the end, queen shit. Anyway, funny story, so I don't watch Australian Survivor because there's like 3 episodes a week and the episodes are soooo long. HOWEVER, I knew that Liz won this season. SOOOOO, when one of my work colleagues (who I MAY have had a crush on), told me that he is watching this season, did I not pretend that I watched this season and spoke to him about it like I did? Anyway long story short, I didn't need to do all of that anyway, because he was already into me teehee, but anyway that's a story for another day, k bye now, lemme stop oversharing. 

[Solaris]

Gotta save my girl Shonee.

 

 

Hopefully at least one of Dee/Carolyn get saved.

Save Simon Mee 

[*Wallace]

Jordan & Kaz were definitely a really strong and dominant duo on The Challenge: World Championship. At that point with the finalists that season, I was kinda over the season as my main favorites were eliminated at that point. I couldn't fault them for winning as they were deserving winners - but I wasn't super excited about it. But yayy happy for KellyAnne & Tristan getting the win for that season, at least! 

Hannah! I'm sad to have let her go at this point, but I know it's at the stage of the game where we got to let some of our favorites go. She was my favorite of the season alongside Kay Kay. I'm happy that Hannah was able to win it for Love Island US 5 and to make it to the Top 100. That's two goals I was hoping to accomplish for her, so I'm happy she got to achieve that here. As... I don't know how much further she could have gone otherwise. She's a real cool, fun, down to earth girl and I love how she was always there and had the girl's back on the show! I didn't like Marco much or much on his own at first, but I actually grew to like him and his connection with Hannah because of Hannah.... and eventually I was into them as a couple. So that's Hannah's power. And yeah, they are still together - or at least were the last time I checked.  

Though technically Hannah is Latina. She's the last standing Latina from LI in this game so yay for that. I just realize the remaining Love Island entries are black women so yayy for that.
