As the fans of All Stars desperately clutch their pearls and place bets on which queen will leave the competition with a tiara and possibly a limited-edition lip gloss, VH1 has taken the opportunity to throw us yet another curveball. On Thursday, February 22, the network had the audacity to announce the fabulous cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 10. Yes, you read that right. This season just got a makeover that would make even RuPaul’s wig collection a tad jealous.
With the official launch date set for March 22, you now have precisely one month to perfect your prediction skills—or make questionable guesses about who might sashé their way to the coveted title of America’s Next Drag Superstar. Will you pick favorites, or are you one of those mavericks who wants to root for every queen until one of them is eliminated, leaving you heartbroken and wondering what went wrong?
In more thrilling news, VH1 is resurrecting the beloved aftershow RuPaul’s Drag Race: Untucked—because what’s more entertaining than watching the shenanigans unfold behind the scenes? Each episode will be a luscious 90 minutes, cleverly combining the main event and Untucked into a glorious two-hour spectacle of sequins, drama, and probably some strategically placed shade. I recommend stocking up on snacks.
RuPaul himself teased this upcoming season, proclaiming it might be the “most over-the-top” season yet. Who knew it was possible? With queens, challenges, and general chaos that are “off the mother-tucking charts,” it’s clear we’re in for a wild ride. And let’s be honest, if you’re not watching Untucked, are you even getting the full story? Spoiler alert: no, you’re not!
So, without further ado (and in true drag royalty fashion), let’s dive into the lineup of queens unleashing their fabulousness on the unsuspecting world. Prepare your best “sickening” looks—here come the contestants!
