"After her performance as Smeg in 'Peter Pansy: The Rusical' grabbed the judges' attention for the wrong reasons, she was put in the bottom two alongside Brighton babe Tayris Mongardi. After an impressive performance - on both parts - to "Don't Rain On My Parade" by Shirley Bassey, Sally™ was told to sashay away. Not before RuPaul could tell her what a star she was, though."
"Miserable! I'm very happy with the situation and the outcome. I think it's allowed me to realise that I actually am a good performer. Going up against Tayris in the lip-sync, for seven months I've been like, 'Yeah I actually am a s**t performer'. That's how I basically ruminated on my drag. I literally just couldn't fathom the fact that I did a good job in the lip-sync."
""Performance challenges are my Achilles' heel," Sally™ told PinkNews hours after her elimination. "When I got to the Rusical, I was like, this is the hurdle that I need to jump over to get to the end essentially." Sally™ talks to PinkNews about RuPaul's response to her and how it changed her perception of her drag, and gets emotional talking about the bond she built with her Drag Race UK season seven sisters."
Sally™ was eliminated from RuPaul's Drag Race UK season seven after her Rusical portrayal of Smeg drew negative judge feedback, placing her in the bottom two with Tayris Mongardi. She and Tayris delivered an impressive lip-sync to Shirley Bassey's rendition of "Don't Rain On My Parade", but Sally™ was eliminated despite earlier success in a design challenge and a high placement in an acting challenge. Sally™ describes performance challenges as her Achilles' heel and says the experience helped her realise her capability as a performer. She reflects emotionally on RuPaul's response and the close bonds formed with her season seven castmates.
