By Jasmine Ting
Feb 02, 2019In an unexpected turn of events, last night's episode of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 4 has the whole Internet fandom shook. It was so unforeseen, people are calling it the "Red Wedding" of Drag Race. This shookening moment is all thanks to this season's "villain," Naomi Smalls.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD.
Last night's episode was "RuPaul's Best Judy Race," and the queens were tasked to give Judy Garland-themed drag makeovers to their best friend or significant other. Season frontrunner Manila Luzon decided to go with a "deck of cards" look, making her husband Michael the diamond to her clove. But this landed her in the bottom two, along with Latrice Royale.

Up to this point, Manila was going strong with her hilarious performances, and seriously unbeatable wig and outfit game. Unfortunately, this also made her a target for immediate elimination for any savage queen hungry for the crown.
Who else but Naomi Smalls would pull off the biggest twist in Drag Race history? While most would have thought Manila would be spared because of her strong performance throughout the season, this seems to be why Naomi had to put her on the chopping block.
Doctor: How much does it hurt on a scale of 1 to 10?

And now fans are freaking out, outraged by the sheer audacity of this power move by Ms. Smalls. This latest shocker also has people further speculating that the reality show's rigged. But, honestly, it seems more like a smart strategic move on Naomi's part.
