Yet another drag queen has left RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 14 after being eliminated in episode 8. With Jasmine Kennedie and Kerri Colby in the bottom two, the latter contestant was evicted by the judges.

RuPaul’s Drag Race episode 8 was titled ‘60s Girl Groups, in which the queens had to sing and dance in three groups. Colby landed in the third team consisting of Angeria Paris VanMichaels and Lady Camden.

On the runway, she appeared in a demonic net dress that the judges found too “gospel.” They were not impressed with Colby’s appearance or her performance. Thus, she was at the bottom alongside Kennedie in the elimination round. The duo was then challenged to lip-sync to Un-Break My Heart (Remix) by Toni Braxton.

Kennedie won the final battle, and Colby received a chocolate bar from the judges, meaning elimination from the reality show.

Throughout the show, Colby brought glamor, poise and passion to the competition series. Thus, her exit made fans unhappy.

Here’s how they reacted:
