-I have so much respect
for Jamari.
He's a good leader,

he's the reason why
we're still in this competition.
-Now that we're halfway
through the competition,
it makes me more appreciative
of Jamari
because without you,
I wouldn't be here.
I feel like the struggle
that I've been through,
I was being set up for this.
Growing up,
I had some challenges.
My father was in jail
the majority of my life,
so we didn't have
a relationship,
but my stepdad,
he came in and loved me
and accepted me as his child.
But when I was 13 years old...
[ Breathes deeply ]
-It's okay.
You got it.
-My stepdad was killed.
It was hard because he was the
father that I really never had.
So meeting Jamari
has been a big blessing
and him being
that father figure...
-You got me.
-Right.
...inspires me
to make myself better.
-The House of Balmain is family,
and so that's what makes us
so unique
and what makes us so great
is because
we co-exist with each other
in the same way
that we would if we were
with our real families.

this is a little bit of
an anticlimax for some of us.
You do look amazing,
but I didn't feel like the thing
that you bring out every week,
that originality,
that story, I didn't feel like
that was here today,
and so I hope
I see you next week,
but this wasn't my favorite
Ninja performance.
I'm sorry.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Y'all give the House of Ninja
a round of applause.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-We just need
to hope the universe that
we're gonna still be here.

flower power,
this is the House of Escada.

-All-house production number --
what you guys going to do?
-Well, we're inspired
by "Avatar."
-London is going to be the
center because he's our leader.
-This will be amazing, because
your stature in itself...
-Yeah.
-...is a presence.
-Yeah and you could be
giving hands
or you could be like moving and
just keeping the picture going.
-Like your children slay
for you.
-I love being a house mother
and making sure
that we all
get noticed individually.
Five, six, seven, eight.
In ballroom, I found
the family that I always wanted,
because growing up
in a religious home,
I had to hide myself
'cause they don't allow gays
and definitely don't celebrate
a gay lifestyle.
Sometimes I used to
kind of cry myself to sleep
because I felt like my mother
didn't know the real me.
I came out to my mother
on Christmas.
I'd just turned 18.
And she was like,
"I love you regardless."
Mwah.
-Mwah.
-But in ballroom,
I can be totally myself.
One...
And as house mother,
I try to make sure
that we're all able
to show ourselves
to make sure
that we become legendary.
