'Drag Race PH:' Arizona Brandy, Bernie, Captivating Katkat, M1ss Jade So advance to the finale

After nine weeks of neck-to-neck competition among 12 queens, only four have advanced to the grand finale of "Drag Race Philippines" Season 2: Arizona Brandy, Bernie, Captivating Katkat, and M1ss Jade So.

In the ninth episode, M1ss Jade So was the final recipient of the RuBadge of the season and took home a cash tip worth P80,000 after winning the maxi challenge in the episode.

Meanwhile, Hana Beshie and ØV CÜNT both sashayed away after Arizona Brandy won the three-way lip sync smackdown along to the tunes of "Dati" by Sam Concepcion and Tippy Dos Santos.

In a Bekenemen viewing party on Wednesday night, Arizona said it was hard for her to send two of her closest sisters home after the lip sync smackdown.

"Hindi ko alam kung magiging masaya ko o magiging malungkot ako," the drag queen said.

["I don't know if I should feel happy or sad about my win."]

AND THEN THERE WERE 4????

"Noong parang gitna na ng competition, tapos naging close na kaming tatlo, nasa utak ko talaga ang top 2 ko is si ØV and Hana, so it's really hard for me to do that," she added.

["When I got closer to ØV and Hana in the middle of the competition, I told myself they were my Top 2 queens, so it was really hard for me to do that.]

Nonetheless, Arizona said she's very grateful to "Drag Race Philippines" for giving her a platform, as well as her Cubao sisters, the queens of Rapture Royalties.

The Season 2 finale episode of "Drag Race Philippines" is set to air on HBO Go and Wow Presents Plus on October 4.
