The season that gave us the Rolaskatox clique, Alaska's lip sync assassinations, and an underdog who refused to go home. Jinkx Monsoon was narcoleptic, underestimated, and absolutely hilarious — and then she won. Water off a duck's back, darling. Jinkx Monsoon was crowned as the Winner and Ivy Winters as Miss Congeniality on May 6, 2013.
