In RuPaul's Drag Race season 4 episode 3, titled "Glamazons vs. Champions," the queens are tasked with creating two looks that represent opposite ends of the fashion spectrum: a "glamazon" look that is fierce and animalistic, and a "champion" look that is polished and regal. The queens are divided into two teams based on their height (tall queens vs. short queens) and are assigned choreography for a group lip sync performance.
As the queens prepare their looks, tensions rise between the taller queens (Willam, Dida Ritz, Latrice Royale, and Kenya Michaels) and the shorter queens (Phi Phi O'Hara, Sharon Needles, Chad Michaels, and Madame LaQueer). The taller queens feel that they have a disadvantage in the competition due to their height, while the shorter queens feel that they are being underestimated by their taller counterparts.
During the runway segment, the queens strut their stuff in their glamazon and champion looks. Guest judges Wendy McClendon-Covey and Jesse Tyler Ferguson join RuPaul and Michelle Visage on the panel, adding their critiques to the mix. The group lip sync performance, set to RuPaul's song "Sexy Drag Queen," brings both teams together in a high-energy battle for supremacy.
In the end, one queen is named the winner of the challenge, while another queen is sent home in a tense lip sync for their life. The remaining queens are left to wonder what challenges and dramas await them in the next episode of RuPaul's Drag Race season 4.
