The most savage insults on “RuPaul's Drag Race” threw more shade than an eclipse. For this list, we'll be looking at the most infamous insults and clapbacks from RuPaul's Drag Race. Our countdown includes go home first, talentless, party city, and more!

The shaaaaaade of it all. Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’ll be counting down our picks for the Top 10 Most Savage Insults on RuPaul’s Drag Race.

For this list, we’ll be looking at the most infamous insults and clapbacks from RuPaul's Drag Race. These are not reads when the library is open, this is just straight up shade...Anything from the Reading Challenge will be excluded (since we've already done that list). So, Bianca’s read on Adore during the Season 6 reading challenge will not count.

#10: Negative & No Talent
Season 4


Since Phi Phi O’Hara is known as one of the most confrontational, argumentative, and defensive queens to have ever been on RuPaul’s Drag Race, it’s only fitting that she kick off this list. Willam, a sassy pot-stirring queen from Season 4 was a bit of a troublemaker on the show as well. After pointing out inconsistencies in something Phi Phi said, the atmosphere shifted to a bit more hostile. Phi Phi started digging into Willam, saying she deserved to go home because she was talentless and negative. According to Phi Phi, Willam’s only talent is “using someone’s credit card to buy her clothes”. After more yelling, mostly from Phi Phi, Willam delivered the iconic line “Your tone seems very pointed right now.” Mic drop!

#9: Go Home First
All Stars Season 1


The introductory season of All Stars was the first time fans got to see former contestants compete once again for the crown. One queen in particular was there for redemption as well: Mimi Imfurst, an infamous Season 3 contestant. After the runway, things got a bit heated as the queens untucked. When Mimi said it was inappropriate to bring up past events, Raven snapped back, “Well guess what Mimi? We did.” She went off, saying she had no idea how Mimi was able to come back to the show. Then, Yara Sofia answered, “They needed someone to go home first!” It left us all absolutely gagging. A hilarious parody video called “Everybirdy vs. Mimi Imfurst” has even been made from it.

#8: Fix Your Mug
Season 2


The first season of the behind the scenes show “Untucked” had one of the wildest showdowns in herstory. In a legendary confrontation, Morgan McMichaels yelled at Mystique Summers, saying she had no class or manners, and that she needed to fix her hair and makeup. There was no stopping it, all the rest of the queens just tried to stay out of it. Mystique was fed up, and delivered the line every fan of RuPaul’s Drag Race knows; “Bitch, I will whoop your ass, I am from Chicago!” Talk about escalating quickly. After daring Mystique to hit her, she responded by telling Morgan, “You’re not worth it.” Can someone call the fire department because that queen just got BURNED!

#7: Talentless
Season 11


Whenever RuPaul asks the queens who should go home, it always seems to cause some drama. Silky Nutmeg Ganache totally threw Yvie Oddly under the bus when she told RuPaul that she should go home because of her injury. Admittedly, that is pretty insensitive since Yvie has the pre-existing condition of “Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome” which caused the injury in the first place. This started the fight, but it certainly wasn’t the end of it. Yvie, clearly pissed at Silky, called her out for playing the game safe. After someone pointed out that Sasha Velour, who won the ninth season of the show, also was safe the entire competition, Yvie retorted “Sasha Velour was talented”, implying Silky was not. Huge burn!

#6: Dark and Nasty Insides
Season 2


Raven is one of those queens that speaks her mind freely, often critiquing and even ridiculing fellow drag queens. It’s undeniable that she is gorgeous and can strut a runway with confidence and bravado. However, she’s been called out for being fake as well as just downright mean. On Season 2, she talked a lot of shit about Tatianna in the confessionals, and was even caught in a lie. Needless to say, they had some words for one another at the Reunion, where Tatianna told Raven she’s beautiful, but her “insides are dark and nasty”. Ouch.

#5: Memorable Drag
Season 8


Season 8 winner Bob the Drag Queen had a bit of a rocky relationship with Derrick Barry, the Britney Spears impersonator extraordinaire from Las Vegas. The two were constantly making shady comments about each other that often seemed in good fun up until this confrontation. Derrick implied that only Bob makes shady comments or jokes, not her. Obviously false, Bob knew it would only be minutes before she proved herself wrong. And lo and behold, Derrick asked Bob, unprovoked if she could give her tips to do ratchet drag. Bob clapped back by saying she could actually give her tips on doing memorable drag. Even though Bob was the queen to send Derrick packing, there didn’t seem to be animosity or bad blood between them.

#4: Dorito Orange
Season 5


Face crack of the century -- the well-known feud between Alyssa Edwards and Coco Monrese started prior to Drag Race, when Alyssa won Miss Gay America but was dethroned and the title transferred to Coco. Cue a ton of drama for Season 5! They tried to talk it out, but of course that only led to lots of tears and swearing. Jeez. Then, it all came to a head when Alyssa made a comment about Coco’s makeup, supposedly joking “Girl, look how orange you fucking look girl!” Coco didn’t take that well, yelling “I’m not joking bitch” and glaring Alyssa down. Even though they had issues, Alyssa’s elimination by Coco saw genuine respect and sadness from both.

#3: Party City
Season 4


Oh look, it’s Phi Phi O’Hara again! Along with Willam, she also had a major issue with Sharon Needles, a queen with a spooky, gothic style. After Phi Phi said Sharon won the challenge because of her team leadership, things went from bad to worse. The queens started yelling at one another, while the rest of the queens in the werk room just listened to it all go down. Sharon called Phi Phi a “tired ass showgirl” but Phi Phi quickly responded “At least I am a showgirl, go back to Party City where you belong!” Oof. This fight definitely left the atmosphere between these queens tense for the rest of the season.

#2: Sugar Daddy
Season 3


One of the only times in the show’s herstory where an altercation became physical, this moment from Season 3 was iconic. Shangela and Mimi Imfurst got into an argument about Mimi’s style and creativity which quickly devolved into a heated fight. Shangela told Mimi she could never pull a glamorous look, so Mimi had the audacity to imply that Shangie has a sugar daddy that pays for everything. Well, that didn’t go over too smoothly. After firmly correcting the queen, Shangela threw her drink at Mimi, creating one of the most thrilling scenes of the entirety of the show. Clearly, Shangela put Mimi in her place because she is what? Sickening!

#1: Back Rolls?!
Season 5


Jade Jolie had one of the wildest insults of all time when she called Alyssa Edwards out. Apparently, Jade thought her fellow queen was a judgemental mean girl who tears the other girls down. Unfortunately for Alyssa, she chose the wrong girl to mess with, because after calling Jade a talentless phony amateur, that’s when the claws came out. Jade took it upon herself to point out that Alyssa -- and specifically, her body -- was far from perfect. She said Alyssa had quote on quote “disgusting back rolls” in an absolutely brutal takedown. Anyone dealing with miss Jade Jolie should really watch their back.
