Why Was Trixie’s RuPaul Impression Not Funny in the Snatch Game?

The performance of Trixie Mattel in the AS3 Snatch Game has been a topic of discussion. Many have pondered why her RuPaul impersonation did not receive the same level of humor as it did in other platforms. This article aims to explore the various factors that contributed to the limited success of Trixie’s performance.

Subjectivity of Humor

Humor is a highly subjective experience. This was evident in the AS3 Snatch Game, where not everyone appreciated Trixie’s performance. While the judges and fellow contestants did not find her performance as humorous as they would have liked, it is important to recognize that this is a matter of personal opinion. Humor cannot be objectively measured in the same way that other skills can.

Experience and Practice

A significant factor that impacted Trixie’s performance was her level of experience with the Snatch Game format. Other contestants had previous exposure to the show’s format and had demonstrated proficiency in it. Trixie, however, was competing much later in the season, immediately after her first elimination and before her return. This lack of practice likely affected her performance and the way her jokes were perceived by the audience and judges.

Quality of Performance and Edit

While Trixie’s RuPaul impersonation was hilarious in her series 'UNHhhh', her performance in the Snatch Game was not as effective. One reason for this was the editing of her jokes. The added 'bombing out' noises and 'unfunny' sounds after her jokes were delivered made her performance seem less humorous than it would have been in a more polished format. These additional sounds could have detracted from the impact of her punchlines, leading to a less positive reception.

Personal Issues and Pressure

Trixie experienced additional pressures and distractions during the season that could have affected her performance. For instance, she was dealing with a challenging competition and the pressure from fans. She had set high expectations to live up to, which may have caused her underperformance in the earlier weeks of AS3. Additionally, the confrontation with Shangela over a note posted on Trixie's station likely added to her anxiety and distraction, further impacting her performance in the Snatch Game.

Conclusion

In summary, while Trixie’s RuPaul impersonation was well-received in her series 'UNHhhh', her experience in the Snatch Game in AS3 was influenced by various factors. A lack of practice, poor editing, and personal issues such as pressure and distractions likely contributed to the limited success of her performance. It is important to recognize that humor is subjective, and what works for one audience may not work for another. Watchers of 'UNHhhh' may expect similar success for Trixie in the Snatch Game, but it is the complexity of reality TV that often brings such unique experiences.
