"When Ru said "sashay away", there was definitely an element of *exhale* and catharsis because it was however many weeks at that point of just long nights, long days, fatigue, being pushed to talk about difficult things, pushing yourself to be physical. I described it as mental gymnastics and I think that phrase really sticks. I'm feeling all the very different feelings. Seeing the fan reception has been so touchin"

Chai T Grande was eliminated in episode five of Drag Race UK season seven after performing a dumpling-themed comedy burlesque that involved edible innards and nipple tassels. The episode challenged nine contestants with the SS Tickety-Boo Talent Show, featuring magic, burlesque, and original anthems. Chai lip-synced against fellow London queen Bones to Florence and the Machine's "Spectrum" but was sent home by the judges. Chai described relief and catharsis after being told to sashay away, noted physical and mental fatigue from the competition, and said she felt disappointed yet at peace with leaving.
