* Come All Stars 8 and the ''Snatch Game Of Love,'' Jimbo reaffirms that she owns this game. Her Creator/ShirleyTemple was drenched in CrossingTheLineTwice and pure madness, culminating in a perfectly clumsy tap dance that will ''never'' leave your head. This makes her one of the special few across the franchise to have two ''Snatch Game'' wins!
** In the other group, Jaymes Mansfield is a natural to play Creator/JenniferCoolidge, and she absolutely dominates the other three right out of the gate.

'''Jaymes-as-Jennifer:''' You're gonna have to wait to after the show to see that!

* Jessica Wild gets the honor of lip-syncing in episode 3, to Music/KimPetras' "Coconuts," a song about how BuxomIsBetter. Taking a page from Yara Sofia's book, Jessica begins by tearing off her jacket, revealing big, floppy boobs with tassels, and proceeds to {{Gainax|ing}} all over the stage, hitting every mark and somehow keeping a straight face for most of it. Jojo Siwa nearly pisses herself laughing on the judges' panel, and Michelle Visage admits her ''face hurts'' afterward. And ''that'' is how Jessica Wild won the rolled-over $30,000 tip and beat ''Canada Vs The World'' winner Ra'Jah O'Hara! (Who struggles the whole lip-sync to not bust up laughing herself.)
** Bonus funny: Jessica caps the lip-sync off by going over to Ra'Jah and ''trying to breast-feed her.''

Cue Jimbo's [[OhCrap utter horror]] [[ThisIsGonnaSuck as if she knows this won't end well again]].

* Episode 5 had the queens make ultra-sappy PSA Videos dedicated to helping queens who went home first. Highlights include:

* Episode 5 tasks the queens with dividing into teams by popping balloons. That is to say, [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything pelvic thrusting against confetti-filled balloons attached to the Pit Crew's asses.]] This is a blast for everyone involved, and many laughs are had at the vulgar humor. Two standout mentions, however:
** Tiny little [[{{Uke}} Jorgeous]] keeps trying to pop the balloon and gets nowhere, providing viewers the most adorable struggle ever, squealing with every thrust. Everyone dies laughing and Kerri in particular cannot contain herself.
-->'''Kerri''': [[{{Uke}} That lil' bitch ain't top nothin' in her life!]]
** Naturally, [[CampStraight Maddy]] is asked to go eventually, and everyone descends into giggles before Ru even gets her name out. The straight queen goes at it with good-natured humor, but what really sells it is the look Bryce ([[CampStraight who is also straight]]) gives her before she steps up.

* Spice is just a mountain of these moments. The Lalaparuza Smackdown eventually pits her against Malaysia...wherein Spice has the forethought to pick a song she knows Malaysia won't know the words to. As Spice comments in her confessional, this plan lasted until maybe a third of the way into the song.
-->'''Spice''': I'm like, ''yes, I got her, she doesn't know the words''! ...And then I'm like, oh shit, I don't know the words either!
** Because this lipsync was uploaded much later than it originally aired, by now the audience had been exposed to Spice's LSFYL against Salina, and the comments section has merrily made light of Spice's seeming supernatural power to cause all of her lipsync opponents to fail spectacularly.
-->'''Moyai''': anetra wasnt pitying spice when she saved her, she just knew the curse of lipsyncing against her


Added DiffLines:

* Salina's farewell on the show. It came about as the result of a lipsync for her life...while wearing comically oversized rubber gloves that resembled crab arms. Many a viewer has noted that, combined with Loosey's green getup, the LSFYL resembles a matchup of [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Mr. Krabs versus Plankton]].

** Speaking of stupid-funny, Yara Sofia comes out with a [[GagBoobs big, floppy breastplate]] on, and does a number where she jiggles them as much as possible. She looks like a cartoon (that you'd ''never, ever, show your kids''). It's so silly in that classic Yara Sofia way that it nets her the win.

* Speaking of Spice and her cutesy presentation, during the critiques for the Ball, one of the few things Michelle praised her for was her tact in trying not to do said walk despite it being clear she wanted to do so likely out of spite. Later when she is eliminated, she gets one more moment of glory by doing said walk ''three times'' before leaving the stage, leaving the judges and queens in hysterics and even Michelle [[ActuallyPrettyFunny is giggling from the audacity shown]].
** Later during the "Let the music play!" bit, the queens do the usual DancePartyEnding by doing Spice's walk.
