Symone Makes Lip Sync Herstory, 'Drag Race' Makes VH1 History
It feels right with our fantasy.
We believe in Symone supremacy.
In the finale of
RuPaul's Drag Race season 13, Symone walked away with the crown, scepter, and $100,000. The Arkansas native beat out 12 other formidable contestants in a fairly tight — if extended — season. And while many are celebrating the overall win, according to reports, Symone made history in the process. What's more: it was in the same episode that the show made VH1 history.
ScreenRant reports that Symone became the first queen ever to survive seven lip syncs on
Drag Race with the finale episode. Her final performance, against Kandy Muse to "Till the World Ends," pushed her over Trinity the Tuck's record of six lip sync wins that she has held since All Stars 4. But it's been the most interesting confluence of events that's led us here.
