Just slipped in to say that Ben DeLaChrist spoilers:end of spoilers
completely lost me. Has she no need of U$100,000? At least Adore had the decency to bow out as early as possible once she realized she couldn't handle it. Ben stuck around for 1/2 the season, got tons of positive exposure, won $25,000 in cash plus extra prizes, then left in a way painfully and obviously calculated to enhance her brand as a 'nice' queen. If she didn't want to play the game and if winning and the money meant nothing to her, she should have declined to come on AS3. You know a poor/sensible queen like Chi Chi or Morgan would NEVER pull this self-righteous, entitled foolishness. Win the $100,000 and pay for a shrink to weep to on an hourly basis. Jesus, Ben DeLaChrist! Nothing on Drag Race has ever made me this annoyed. She wasn't nice; she pulled a stunt.
Like any of the queens think different. Chi Chi couldn't have possibly thought she had any chance of winning but she saw the opportunities inherent in appearing on the show. Ben saw those same opportunities, too, and milked them to her own ends in a way that comes off as disingenuous.
