RuPaul’s Drag Race (UK) Season 4 Episode 3 “Naff-ta Awards” – Recap
In Episode 3 of Season 4, the five contestants had to deliver outfits in sets for the 2022 design challenge. As a few of the Season 4 queens found the perfect match, others found themselves in even more turmoil.
The contestants of Drag Race UK wore their best neon attire in episode 2, but in episode 3, they celebrated a brand-new set of hues. The design task for this episode had a bingo theme, and RuPaul served bingo speaker authenticity.
The 10 remaining contestants were selected out of the Bingo spinner by RuPaul to decide which Contestant was to be set with whom. Each of the five pairs received a box of cloth in a different color from green, black, gold, blue and purple. For the runway, which was judged by no one else than the supermodel, fashion critic, and campaigner Leomie Anderson, the contestants had to transform these crates into lovely, coordinated costumes.
