For RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 2's Rusical — thought the challenge wasn't called such back then — the top seven queens paid tribute to some of the most iconic women in HERstory and beyond. So it's fitting that the winning queen in this episode makes history in her own way: by changing the game.

This week, we're Ruvisiting the Rusical episode of All Stars 2 exactly 10 years after it debuted on Logo and VH1. We're diving in on the lip sync challenge, and how Alyssa Edwards shines as the episode's hero. Plus, we get into Phi Phi O'Hara's off-show claim about Alyssa's critiques, the cut extra Rusical verses for the eliminated queens, and the domino effect of this episode's elimination in the Drag Race timeline.
