Canada’s Drag Race: Canada vs the World crowns winner in epic lip-sync finale

Spoilers ahead for the grand finale of Canada’s Drag Race: Canada vs the World.

After weeks of sickening challenges and jaw-dropping lip-syncs, Brooke Lynn Hytes and company have crowned a new ‘Queen of the Mother-Pucking World.’

For their sixth and final maxi-challenge, the top four contestants of Canada vs the World season 2 – Lemon, Kennedy Davenport, Alexis Michelle and Cheryl Hole – were tasked with participating in the ultimate lip sync smackdown for the crown.

However, before they could kick off the final leg of the competition, the ladies sat down to have their royal portrait painted by Canada vs the World season one winner Ra’Jah O’Hara.

During the campy sit down – which featured Ra’Jah dressed as the beloved Bob Ross – each of the queens reflected on their time in the competition and how far they’ve come.

Cheryl opened up about being the only UK queen in the competition, adding that she felt pressure returning to Drag Race for a third time.

“I was just so excited to just show the growth, and it felt like the right time, she continued.

In a confessional, Cheryl added that being in the finale felt like a full-circle moment.

Lemon echoed similar sentiments when Ra’Jah asked her if she saw herself making the top four at the start of the competition.

“I did. Last time on UK vs the World was not a good run, but looking back, it wasn’t my best. I feel like this is my best, and therefore, it’s the best, she gushed.

During Kennedy’s round on the throne, the beloved talent opened up about what winning the crown would mean to her.

Definitely, it will give me some validation for my career and my time on Drag Race. For a while, I always felt second to everybody. I’ve never felt top tier, she explained.

It didn’t take long for Ra’Jah to praise Kennedy for her impact in the drag sphere and the franchise, praising her for beingthat girl!

For the last portrait of the day, Alexis reflected on being in the top four for a second time, cheekily adding that it meant she still got it.

In a confessional, the season three queen revealed that Ra’Jah inspired her to return and compete again.

“It was a sign of hope, and it doesn’t matter how many times you do it as long as you finish doing it, your legacy is complete, Alexis added.

On Coronation Day, the top four contestants and the eliminated queens sashayed onto the main stage to walk in their finestCrown Me ensembles before receiving praise from the judges panel.

After showcasing their royal portraits and giving their final plea as to why they should win the competition, Brooke tasked the queens with deciding who deserves Miss Congeniality and $10,000 alongside the eliminated queens – La Kahena, Le Fil, Tynomi Banks, Eureka, and Miss Fiercalicious.

Of course, before the decision could be reached, Fierce confronted Lemon about her saving Kennedy instead of her last week.

“What happened to your solidarity to your Canadian alliance? You sat over there on the first day with me and Tynomi, and we made a pack to have each other’s back until the end, she exclaimed, which surprised the other queens.Your word means nothing to you when you give it to other people?

Lemon was quick to dispel the alliance talks, stating that she never claimed to be in one.

“I said, I would have your back., which I did, but that is not the same as saying,I’ll save you, no matter what happens. she responded.

“I played this competition as fairly as I possibly could, and I thought of the bottom three, that Kennedy deserved the spot in the finale more than the other two girls there.”

Following their shady and hilarious backstage kiki, Eureka was revealed as the winner of Miss Congeniality before the final four kicked off the lip sync smackdown.

“Now that the niceties are over, it’s time for the main event. Each of these boxes contain the titles of the lip sync songs of the night. The first lip sync will beHideaway by Kiesza, and the second will be So Many Men, So Little Time by Miquel Brown, Brooke explained.

“The queens that select the same songs will face off agaisnt each other. The two winners will advance to the ultimate Lip Sync Smackdown for the crown.

Unsurprisingly, the final four laid it all out on stage, with Lemon and Kennedy delivering one of the most iconic lip syncs in Drag Race herstory to ‘Hideaway and Alexis and Cheryl wowing the judges and with theirSo Many Men, So Little Time’ lip sync.

In the end, Lemon and Alexis made it to the final two, and we were tasked with performing one final time on Céline Dion’s epic track,Love Can Move Mountains.

Packed with drama, fierce face cards and sickening outfits, the two talents showcased chemistry and incredible showmanship.

After the dust settled, Brooke announced Lemon as the winner of Canada vs the World season two and the new queen of theMother-Pucking World.

“No words for how I’m feeling right now, but never ever give up on your dreams. Never stop working hard, and push yourself to the fucking limit ’cause I promise you can do it too, Lemon said during her acceptance speech.

Since the finale’s release, fans have flocked to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on the episode, its series of incredible lip syncs and Lemon’s win.

One person wrote:Lemon really turned her first-out lemons into some $100,000 lemonade.

Another fan echoed similar sentiments, writing:Canada’s Drag Race never misses when we talk about the BEST top 2 of the season.

A third fan added:Kennedy and Alexis will forever be legendary and iconic. So much love for them!”
