Fix claims are a well-loved staple of UK reality shows – whether it’sLove Island,The X Factor,Strictly Come Dancingor even the dearly-departedBig Brother, your favorite show hasn’t really arrived until fans accuse its producers of conspiring against the contestants.

Congratulations RuPaul … and, also, how dare you ?! Well, we’re only voicing the perspective of some fans who felt the results of this week’s elimination were sketchy at best.

This week’s challenge had the remaining queens designing and pitching their own water bottle brands.

When the brilliantly shady Blu Hydrangea and Cheryl Hole failed to impress the judges, they landed in the bottom two.

Throughout the episode, the other contestants predicted it might be Cheryl Hole’s time to go, since she’d been hovering in the Bottom Three throughout most of the competition.

But that’s not what happened. The guest judge was the girl group-obsessed queen’s popstar namesake Cheryl, whose hit ‘Call My Name’ was also picked for the Lip Sync for Your Life song.

Cheryl Hole has told us many… many… many times throughout the competition that she’s a member of a Girls Aloud tribute act and has specifically modeled herself after the now-former Mrs Cole.

“You inspire me in drag, and you inspired me my whole life,” she told Cheryl on the runway.

As expected, Cheryl Hole was victorious in a highly-competitive Lip Syncto send her rival Blu sashaying away. But was this truly a fair and random song choice for Cheryl Hole’s lip sync?
