Fifth Alternate

Term used by Alyssa Edwards in Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars 2. A fifth alternate is someone that should’ve been fifth but instead it was sixth in line. In fact back in her season she was in the top 6 after she lost her lipsync versus Coco Montrese, saying the she should have been top 5 without being shady.

And I was a lovely...fifth alternate.

Did I you see that lipsync? She is surely a fifth alternate.
