If fans thought they were safe from another shocking elimination on "RuPaul's Drag Race UK Vs. The World" they were wrong.
Last week, front-runner Jimbo, representing Canada, was sent home at the hands of Thailand's Pangina Heals. It was a shocking move that only felt more surprising when it happened to Pangina on the latest episode of the reality competition show. After placing in the bottom for "Snatch Game," Pangina's fate rested in Blu Hydrangea's hands, who won the top two lip sync. But Blu decided to cut Pangina, despite her having the best track record of the rest of the queens – she had won two challenges while U.K.'s Baga Chipz and U.S.A.'s JuJubee and Mo Heart have yet to earn a RuPeter badge (though Baga was the other top queen this past week, lip syncing alongside Blu). Amsterdam's Janey Jacké had won one challenge.
In what was perhaps the most surprising elimination in recent "Drag Race" memory, Twitter fans and "Drag Race" stars were quick to react to the moment, including Pangina and the cast of "Drag Race UK Vs. The World."
