Scarlet Envy has faced her crushing critique on last night’s All Stars head-on in a new social post – while looking fabulous in the process, naturally.

The latest queen to be eliminated from the Drag Race spin-off bowed out after a poorly-received turn in the ‘Pink Table Talk’ task.

On last night’s show, Scarlet was praised for opening up about her family life and her “two moms”, but criticised for clunkily pivoting back to her drag character.

“I don’t know if you have found that sweet spot”

“It was interesting watching you go between your drag persona and your real life as your mother’s son,” said RuPaul during judges’ critiques.

The 60-year-old continued: “I don’t know if you have found that sweet spot between the two yet.

“It kind of made me feel… I don’t know, it made me feel a little uncomfortable.”

The comments visibly devastated Scarlet, who was later ejected from the show (before being invited back at the episode’s end for the mysterious ‘game-within-a-game’).

In a post today, Scarlet posted pictures of herself posing in her elimination outfit, while playfully referencing Ru’s comments.

“Feeling a little… I don’t know… uncomfortable,” she joked, before tagging Ru and the show, seemingly showing there are no hard feelings.

Chin up, Scarlet! You might win the thing yet!
