    Hands down one of THE best drag queens, not just from Drag Race but in the world. And I just love her confidence and how she knows who she is, like "Of course I would've won, were you watching?" People have different opinions abut Dela's self-elimination but in restrospect, after the intial shock, it's just like, what a badass move. She became even more iconic than if she had stayed and won.

    Dela is being way too considerate. Darien was not only mean, she was insecure and vindictive. She was on her way to being the Roxxy Andrews of her season but unfortunately the show made the huge mistake of getting rid of Dela so Darien could no longer antagonize her. In the end it doesn't matter because Dela is known for being a fierce, talented queen who can write her own ticket to success whereas Darien fizzled out of sight and out of mind.

Remember, season one represented the best of drag―and that was 2009! Now, imagine 1986 Queens. Oy!
