There were a lot of expectations going into the finale since this season has been so strong. However, once again I felt the finale was underwhelming? The country themed song was good, however the queens themselves were given very little to say, so the majority of the performance had the queens dancing to rupaul singing which was bizarre. I honestly expected better from the runway and it was a shame we didn't see all of the queens final runway. The lip-sync at the end was ok but had some great moments. I am really thrilled that Kylie won, however from what we were shown I'm left a bit confused. I honestly thought Rajah would take the crown, but I really thought they would probably crown Ginger. For me, Kylie wasn't the strongest in the lip-sync or performance and her runway, whilst great, didn't feel like a finale eleganza. I am so happy for Kylie and prior to the finale my top 2 were her and Rajah however this feels rather anti-climatic. Again, I'm happy for Kylie but I can't help but think that she was crowned for representation, which is so unfortunate if it's true since she is an amazing queen, but from what was shown, Rajah did the best and therefore should have won.

A fantastic season

A country song about America doesn't translate to everyone, but I'm able to see past what I expect of a finale and see the bigger picture. Speaking of seeing the bigger picture, congrats to the winner, who has had to deal with a lifelong battle against external hatred and internal confusion. It could have been any of the top four or five, but I'm so happy for the winner. Let's grow up, get past our own opinions and expectations, smile, breathe and celebrate a wonderful human receiving recognition.
Not bad... for a finale

Pros:
Unpredictable winner
No baby photos
Decent challenge
Cons: No negative critiques (as always) Questionable winner, simple because Giner and Raja had better track records and I think Kylies runway was really weak
Overall a good conclusion to a strong season, I'm not at all mad at the winner, and hope all stars 7 follows a similar format.

Don't let your favoritism win. Kylie deserved it. Rajah deserved it too but most importantly she got her Rudemption. Rumix was wonderful, the runway was amazing. It's not because your favorite didn't win that the final was bad. Best drag race season in history.
Wow!!!

What a surprising finish, I was not expecting Kylie to take the crown but I'm so happy that the US franchise finally has an amazing trans winner! I was team Ra'Jah but Kylie killed that final lipsync in the end. Props to her and what an incredible season overall, THIS is how a season of all stars should be done!
Confusing choice

Kylie did not have a winners edit. They made it look like it was between rajah and ginger and then abruptly turned to kylie. I love her, but i have no idea how to feel about it. Is she a deserving winner? Yes. But they seemed to have favored other queens more than her, like when ginger won snatch game over kylie, which made her look more like a solid runner-up than a winner. Regardless, congratulations kylie!!! And also, a country song for the finale?? They clearly haven't learned from as5...
Deserved winner

Great episode. Was hard to figure out who would win but I think Kylie deserved the crown, as did everyone else. Such a close competition this season people would be angry with whoever won. Well done to the winner! Stop ya wining children.
It was a good episode even though my fav didn't win

I love Kylie and I am very happy for her victory. Her snatch game as Dolly Parton was amazing. And she brought great looks and excellent lip sync performances this season. She was a tough competition nobody even knew what to expect in the beginning of the season. Such a great transformation indeed. Congratulations!!
Anyway, I think the top 2 all stars were Ginger Minj and Ra'jah O'Hara. I feel that they are both robbed from winning and I feel very sad for Ginger as she did sooo amazing in the competition and still ended up at top 3 as in season 7. Ra'jah had a great rudemption nobody can deny it. She has such a charming personality and I've loved watching her throughout the season. I don't understand why there was not a double crowning? Kylie-Ginger or Kylie-Ra'jah would be more fair in my opinion.

First, why create a competition if the girl with the best track record, challenges wins and everything and it simple doesn't won???? Doesn't make sense. I love Kylie but Rupaul only have crowned her in order to erase her transphobics statements from her past. RA'JAH SHOULD HAVE WON. PERIOD.
YOU CAN STILL LOVE KYLIE AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT HASN'T HER TIME. Ginger and Ra'jah deserved more. So sad, stop doing a fake competition cuz in the end nothing matter, they only is gonna Crown who the internet want in order to not be CANCELLED. Drag race is dying cuz of this.

This season was so good up until the last two episodes... When the season first started I was rooting for Kylie to take the crown, but after watching the season I'm confused. Kylie had the worst track record of the top 4 and the only challenge she won, she got extra help in. Is the show only crowing fan favorites now? What happened to picking the best competitor like in All Stars 2?
Fantastic season ending with a fantastic winner

I thought the finale, like the season itself, was great. The only thing I expected a little more from were the finale runways, only Eureka presented a "Finale-esque" outfit for the runway. Nonetheless, the finale was a breath of fresh air, like the season itself. Some people will obviously be bitter that their favorite out of the final 4 didn't win, but that happens every season. Im very happy for Kylie who waited 11 years for this moment.
In a season full of underdogs, the queens were able to give us one of the best Drag Race seasons in years and they should be proud.

Throughout the season we have had entertaining, heartfelt and endearing episodes with vulnerable moments that didn't seem produced or fake. This season was absolutely dominated by Ra'Jah, including the finale. So I do not understand the decision to crown who was crowned.
i get it, but still......

Look, i love Kylie. She is an amazing queen, but it genuinely feels like she just won because they wanted to have a trans winner. If she would've had the best track record i would've loved for her to win. But both rajah and ginger had a better track record than her. I feel like they just gave her the win so people will forget about Ru's past comments about trans people. I want a trans queen to win because they did the best, not just because of representation issues. For the rest the episode was kind of boring. The song was fine, but it wasn't iconic like read u wrote u or kitty girl. The final lipsync was a little all over the place. Dissapointing finale, with an undeserving winner.
Wonderful winner

I really enjoyed this season. All of them deserved to win bc this top 4 is one of the strongest imo on a All Stars Season. Stop reading here if you don't want to be spoiled.
🚨SPOILER ALERT🚨
Kylie's win is well deserved! She brought the charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent this season. And she has evolved as a queen since her season. Congratulations to Kylie.

Amazing Season with a "meh" ending

I think all the queens were amazing but it wasn't an entertaining grand finale. Producers didn't focus at the grand finale at all. And please do not lyp sync the queens individually. I have no idea who won the lyp sync, because they weren't to each other, they were alone o the stage.
Anyway Congratulations Miss Kylie. This victory means a lot for the trans community. We love you.
