Start your engines, because the biggest race in “Drag Race” herstory is about to begin when “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” Season 10 premieres May 9 on Paramount+.
To mark the milestone moment, RuPaul has invited a staggering 18 fan-favorite former contestants to partake in the franchise’s first-ever Tournament of All Stars. Basically, the queens will be divided into three groups of six, where they will compete for points within their own brackets in order to reach the Top 9 semi-finals and eventually the grand finale’s lip sync smackdown for the crown.
As far as statistics go, Season 14 has the most representation this time around, with six of those queens battling it out for redemption. Plus, there’s even one representative from Season 17, which only just ended last week, and three returning All Stars.
The winner will receive $200,000 and a coveted spot in the Drag Race Hall of Fame. Meet the full cast, below:
Aja
