'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' Season 11 welcomes 18 queens to the Werk Room as competition heats up
Once again, 'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' is right around the corner, and this time, it's gearing up for Season 11. Several former contestants are set to take the stage for another shot at the trophy. The show has now revealed the full roster of 18 drag queens who will go head-to-head for the $200,000 prize. The list is quite diverse and fans can enjoy performances by Season 11's Silky Nutmeg Ganache and Shuga Cain, Dawn from Season 16, and many more.
The show will comprise 12 episodes, and the contestants will be split into three brackets. Sam Star from Season 17, Jasmine Kennedie from Season 14, and Morphine Love Dion from Season 16 will take the stage to impress the judges. They will be joined by Salina EsTitties from Season 15, Crystal Methyd from Season 12, Lucky Starzzz from Season 17, and Joey Jay from Season 13. Several returning stars will also grace the Werk Room, including Kennedy Davenport, who first appeared on the seventh season of the original show and eventually returned for 'All Stars' Season 3. Similarly, A’Keria C. Davenport will join the rest of the cast, hoping to have an edge based on her previous appearances on Seasons 11 and 'All Stars' Season 6. The show will also welcome Morgan McMichaels, who competed in Season 2 and returned for 'All Stars' Season 3.
Fans will be elated to know that the iconic Silky Nutmeg Ganache, going with the prefix 'Reverend Doctor,' will also be part of the upcoming season's cast. She will be joined by the meme queen Mystique Summers from the original show's sophomore season. The rest of the cast includes Vivacious from Season 6, Hershii LiqCour-Jeté from Season 16, Aura Mayari from Season 15, and April Carrión from Season 6.
The format of 'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' Season 11 carries over from the previously aired tenth season. The 'Tournament of All Stars' format returns this year and will split the 18 contestants into small groups of three. These groups will then go on to accumulate points through various challenges and stages of the game, eventually culminating with one top player from each bracket advancing to the final rounds of the competition. The finalists will then compete in a Lip Sync challenge and the winner will walk away with the crown and $200,000. The upcoming season premieres on Friday, May 8 on Paramount+.
