Reception
(''pictured at RuPaul's DragCon LA in 2019'') was praised for her performance during the lip-sync contest. Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club gave the episode a rating of "B+". Matthew Tharrett of Queerty called the challenge "really underwhelming and rushed". Sam Brooks ranked the "Whatta Man" performance 44 in The Spinoff 2019 "definitive ranking" of the show's 162 lip-sync contests to date. David Levesley included the performance in GQ 2019 overview of "the best lip syncs to watch if you want to get a real grip of the show", calling it the "best for sexuality vs comedy". Levesley wrote, "In 'Whatta Man', [Trinity K. Bonet] faces off against weirdo and consummate zaddy Milk: the latter chooses to play it as a comedy while Trinity gives you sex on a platter. It's a tale as old as time: playing a lip sync straight will always impress Ru over making it a parody of itself." In TV Guide 2019 list of the show's thirteen best lip-syncs, Keisha Hatchett wrote: "Trinity K. Bonet's sultry performance of Salt-N-Pepa's 'Whatta Man' will be forever ingrained in our minds. By perfectly embodying the classic jam's laid-back vibe while adding her own spin, she really owned the lip sync and delivered something worth remembering." Bernardo Sim included the contest in Pride.com's 2023 list of the best lip-syncs from each season of the show, writing: "After struggling with so many of the challenges in that season, Bonet came alive during this lip sync and showed the judges what an incredible talent she is. Overall, this was one of the most thrilling and titillating lip syncs in Drag Race herstory." ==References==
