RuPaul’s DragCon LA 2024 has officially begun! Earlier today, the cowboy hat-wearing RuPaul Charles opened the festivities at the Los Angeles Convention Center with the ceremonial cutting of the pink ribbon. “Fabulous! Have a good time. I love you,” the Queen of Drag told his adoring crowd while still holding the enormous pink scissors. RuPaul’s co-producer and co-judge Michelle Visage stood beside him, and they were flanked by dozens of drag queens from the American version of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” plus many other worldwide installments. Watch the ribbon cutting video below:

Once again, the convention’s festivities are presented by World of Wonder Productions and its co-founders, Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato. This year’s theme is the “hottest ever” … and we’re assuming that refers to the sizzling talent that’ll be on-hand rather than the California weather.

The world’s largest celebration of drag culture is just days away, so get ready to sashay your way to the Los Angeles Convention Center.

The 2024 edition of RuPaul’s DragCon LA will take place over two days: Friday, July 19 and Saturday, July 20. Once again, it’s presented by World of Wonder Productions and its co-founders, Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato. This year’s theme is the “hottest ever” … and we’re assuming that refers to the sizzling talent that’ll be on-hand rather than the California weather.

Attendees of RuPaul’s DragCon LA will be able to experience signings, meet and greets, photo opps, mainstage performances, a DJ set with RuPaul Charles (Friday only), 300 unique vendors for shopping and merchandise, and more. Judges Michelle Visage and Ts Madison will also appear, as well as “pit crew” model Bruno Alcantara and celebs like Daniel Franzese and Yamil “Yam Yam” Arocho.

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Trixie Mattel recaps the latest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 16 alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s eighth episode, reigning champion and Mother of season 15 Sasha Colby makes her recap debut to break down this season’s “Snatch Game” performances. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In their recap of the episode, Sasha and Trixie have fun addressing the “unsolicited shade” of this season and how even when Plane Jane calls anyone “sister” feels like subtle shade as well. Sasha gives Jane some defense by admitting that as drag queens they all “just have a crippling desire for people to love us” and Jane is no different. When it came to the reading challenge of her season, Sasha was impressed by Loosey Laduca and Malaysia Babydoll Foxx; this season the standouts for her were Jane and Xunami Muse.

Each season on “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” there’s a big song and dance group number that showcases the queens performance abilities. Dubbed the “rusical” — an amalgamation of RuPaul and musical — it’s the chance for each of the competitors to show off their acting, dancing and lip-syncing skills.

For the competition series’ milestone Season 15, the rusical was “Wigloose,” inspired by the 1984 Kevin Bacon classic “Footloose.” The number starred the top six queens: Anetra, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties and Sasha Colby. “Wigloose” is set in the fictional small town of West Bumtuck, where a local teacher (Brooks) seeks to outlaw drag. The local youth protest the law by holding a secret drag ball. In the end, the teacher is reminded by her old friend (Anetra) and husband (Colby) about the power of drag, and the law is overturned.

TheWrap spoke with Miguel Zarate, the choreographer of “Wigloose,...

We've made it, Drag Race fans! The crown has been snatched, the confetti has fallen, and our jaws have dropped.

America has found its next drag superstar on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 16.

This was a tight race to the finish, possibly one of the tightest in Drag Race herstory. But there was no doubt that your favorite drag queen's favorite drag queen wasn't claiming another big win and leaving her mark in herstory.

The crowning episode is typically a night of celebration. Everything from the lip-syncs to the interviews to the cheesy segments is about making it a glitzy night to celebrate drag.

"Grand Finale" was no exception!

And I'd be remiss not to talk about how empowering the grand finale was for drag queens and the 2Slgbtq+ community as a whole.

It's been a tough year for drag queens, especially due to all the hurtful debates and discriminatory legislation targeting them.

Who will win “RuPaul’s Drag Race 15“? The Ru-vealing new season premiered Friday, January 6, 2023 on MTV with a two-part episode that introduced the sweet 16 queens competing for the crown. All season long, Gold Derby readers made their “RuPaul’s Drag Race” winner predictions for which contestant they think will go the distance and claim the $200,000 grand prize. The grand finale airs Friday, April 14.

As of this writing, Sasha Colby is still fans’ pick to win, just as she was in all of the previous weeks. With just the Final 4 queens left, our readers give Anetra the best odds to come in second place, followed by Mistress Isabelle Brooks in third and Luxx Noir London in fourth.

Below, see a snapshot in time of our racetrack odds for the Season 15 Finale:

1. Sasha Colby — 13/100 odds

2. Anetra — 9/1 odds

3. Mistress Isabelle Brooks — 62/1 odds

4. Luxx Noir London — 100/1 odds

Following episode 14 two weeks ago, we asked in a poll which of the final four queens of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 should be crowned “America’s next drag superstar.” At the time of this writing, over 900 votes had been cast in favor of Anetra, amounting to 50% of the total vote. The “Grand Finale” of season 15 will air this Friday, April 15 where either Anetra, Luxx Noir London, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, or Sasha Colby will be crowned and earn this year’s $200,000 cash prize.

Here are the complete results in the “Who do you want to win?” poll:

50% Anetra

38% Sasha Colby

6% Mistress Isabelle Brooks

5% Luxx Noir London

1% Other

It’s fitting that fans are have so much love for Anetra and Sasha. They are the two queens largely recognized by the rest of the cast as the strongest performers in their group. They basically broke the internet when they went head to...

In every grand finale of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” not one but two crowns are bestowed: one to the ultimate winner (chosen by host RuPaul Charles) and one to Miss Congeniality (chosen by her fellow queens). All week long, “Drag Race” viewers at Gold Derby have been predicting who they think will become Miss Congeniality for Season 15, and things are looking strong for Salina EsTitties and Malaysia Babydoll Foxx. Both of these eliminated queens made their mark during their time on MTV’s reality TV show and would be welcome additions to future “All-Stars” seasons.

Below are the current predictions for who our readers think will be named the “RuPaul’s Drag Race 15” Miss Congeniality and claim the special $10,000 prize. Do you agree or disagree with your fellow fans? Sound off down in the comments section and make your predictions before the grand finale airs on April 14.

Salina EsTitties — 8/5 odds Malaysia...

By the end of episode 14 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on March 31, RuPaul Charles and judges Michelle Visage and Ross Mathews made the decision of which queens would advance to the April 14 “Grand Finale.” Based on their performances in the “Blame It on the Edit” music video challenge, Sasha Colby earned her fourth challenge win and Luxx Noir London was “safe,” both earning automatic spots in the finale. Mistress Isabelle Brooks and Anetra were left as the bottom two where one would be saved and the other was supposed to be eliminated.

Vote in our poll below to tell us which queen you are supporting ahead of the “Grand Finale” in two weeks. Are you #TeamAnetra, #TeamLuxx, #TeamMistress, or #TeamSasha?

After episode 14, Sasha stands alone at the front of the pack with the most maxi challenge wins at 4: the infomercial, the ball, the celebrity interview, and the music video.

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on March 31 with the penultimate step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the queens were partnered with inspirational women for “Teacher Makeovers.” Loosey Laduca performed well in the challenge, but still fell to the bottom two and ultimately lost the Lip Sync for Your Life to Luxx Noir London.

This week, the final four found themselves one music video challenge away from competing in the “Grand Finale” for the crown and title. Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 14 titled “Blame It on the Edit” was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage, and judge Ross Mathews.

The four queens fighting for a spot in the Grand Finale are: Anetra, Luxx Noir London, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, and Sasha Colby.

Check out our full recap of episode 14 below:

RuPaul has one more surprise in store for the four queens remaining in Drag Race Season 15.

Anetra, Luxx Noir London, Mistress Isabelle Brooks and Sasha Colby assemble in the Werkroom on Friday’s episode (MTV, 8/7c) for the tea on their final challenge — to write and perform their own solo verses of Ru’s single “Blame It on the Edit.”

First,...

At the end of episode 13 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on March 24, Loosey Laduca and Luxx Noir London fought for their chance to advance to the final four in a Lip Sync for Your Life to “For the Girls” by guest judge Hayley Kiyoko. It was Loosey’s second straight trip to the bottom and Luxx’s first time placing in the bottom two and though they both exuded confidence going into battle, only one came out on top. Ultimately, the judges decided that it was Loosey’s time to go and that Luxx would be the queen to remain.

We asked in a recent poll if Loosey was the right queen to leave and in a turn-around from last week when a majority of fans thought Loosey should have went home instead of Salina EsTitties, this time Loosey fared better. Nearly 50% of those polled think that Luxx was the more deserving queen of elimination,...

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Bianca Del Rio recaps the latest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s thirteenth episode, Naomi Smalls returns to the recap show as a two-time makeover challenge winner herself. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In their recap of episode 13, both Naomi and Bianca say that they expected one of the twins to make the top five instead of the five that actually made it to this episode. Naomi said that Sugar is great at comedic timing, but Spice is more polished in her looks and so either could have been the one to make it this far. Like other queens before her, Naomi also took offense to queens like Luxx Noir London and Loosey Laduca being so pressed about their placements, especially Loosey trying to count mini challenge wins in her record.

As part of season 15 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the drag queens put on a stunning show of Wigloose: The Rusical about the queens overcoming a small town that tries to ban drag. The musical theater challenge was inspired by Kevin Bacon‘s Footloose, which he loved.

On his Instagram story, Bacon, 64, posted a link to the episode, writing, “Big shoutout to @rupalsdragrace’s Wigloose: the RuSical (and props to Heaven Bacon [winky face emoji] @looseyladuca). With all the recent anti-drag bills, this came at just the right time. Drag is an art and drag is a right.”

Loosey Laduca, who played the drag version of Bacon’s character, reposted the story, saying, “Well, I’m dead.”

Bacon then reposted a video of RuPaul on March 8 where he called out political maneuvers being similar to bullying.

In the video, Mama Ru said, “‘Hey, look over there!’ — a classic distraction technique,...

Each week on “Whatcha Packin’,” Michelle Visage interviews the recently eliminated queen and shows us some of the runway looks they didn’t get the chance to use on the show. Following her episode 13 elimination, Loosey Laduca goes over the structure of her performance style and admits to Michelle that she did butt heads with some of the other queens during filming. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In her conversation with Michelle, Loosey explains where her drag name came from — Loosey was an homage to Lucille Ball and Laduca hints at her Italian heritage, but is also the name of a type of shoe worn in the musical theater scene. She also spoke about how supportive her upbringing was, including her ex-cop, black belt father. Michelle confirmed of course that Loosey is still in fact a construction worker, highlighting how unique...

By the end of episode 13 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on March 24, the head-to-head we’ve all been waiting arrived when Loosey Laduca and Luxx Noir London were selected as the bottom two by the judges. A season-long build up of tension between the two came to a head in their battle to guest judge Hayley Kiyoko‘s song “For the Girls” where ultimately Luxx won out and Loosey was sent home. Vote in our poll below to tell us if the judges made the right choice in sending Loosey home this week.

This week the queens were tasked with making over a teacher in drag with a focus on building a family resemblance to their own unique style. As the mini challenge winner, Loosey got to pair each of the girls with the teacher of her choice. Though it seemed as if Loosey was pairing everyone based on similarities,...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on March 24 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the queens sang and dance on stage in the showstopping new rusical “Wigloose!” While the judges were pleased with everyone’s performances, the two that fell to the bottom of the pack were Salina EsTitties and Loosey Laduca. A fourth trip to the Lip Sync for Your Life was the end of the road for Salina while Loosey survived to shantay another day.

This week, the final five give back to the people who shape our futures by giving influential teachers the drag makeover of their dreams. Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 13 titled “Teacher Makeovers” was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage, judge Ross Mathews, and music artist and “Celebrity Drag Race” alum Hayley Kiyoko.

The five queens still in the competition are: Anetra,...

Get your brushes ready, and your wigs snatched. It's time for a makeover!

The lovable makeover Maxi Challenge returned on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 13 to dish out fabulous looks for some unsung heroes: the teachers.

And in true makeover fashion, some queens captured the family resemblance while others failed to find a connection. Though, it was the strange judging choices that took center stage.

"Teacher Makeovers" was a heartwarming yet slow round for the competition. I'm grateful to have 90-minute episodes again, but with only five queens left, the pacing had a touch more filler this time.

Still, plenty of drama and great chemistry moments with the teachers balanced things out to make it a fun round.

Firstly, the "Spill The T" Mini Challenge brought so much fun and light drama to the Werk Room.

It's always so scandalous whenever the queens are asked their true thoughts about one another.

No, you’re not looking at a photograph of Tanya McQuoid traipsing around Sicily with her best Judy, but the confusion is more than understandable.

Friday’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race paired the five remaining queens with deserving educators for a time-honored family resemblance makeover challenge, and Luxx Noir London had everyone gooped when she basically transformed her teacher into Jennifer Coolidge.

By the end of episode 12 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on March 17, Salina EsTitties was fighting for her life in a fourth trip to the Lip Sync for Your Life. This time she was pitted against Loosey Laduca, in the bottom for her first time, after both were named by the other queens as the two most deserving of being sent home. Though Salina was sent packing by the judges, a majority of fans think that Loosey should have been eliminated instead.

We asked in a recent poll if Salina was the right queen to leave and in a very close vote, more fans believed that the judges got it wrong rather than right. At the time of this writing, 39% of voters think Loosey should have been given the “sashay away” while 36% think Salina was the correct call. Together, those votes make up three-fourths of the vote, but another 20% were...

It has been said many times that the fan base of Ru Paul’s Drag Race can be extremely toxic to both performers and fellow fans. The annoying number of posts I see in so-called “fan pages” that contain some form of racist/transphobic rhetoric, are purposefully vile towards queens from the show or even end in intense verbal fights between fans is ridiculous when really all I personally want to do is talk to people about how much I love the show! As fans, we also always seem to think that we could (if we wanted to) dominate any season of Drag Race and talk about how we would have done the challenge differently to win. I did exactly this a few episodes ago when talking about how I would have excelled in the interview challenge but personally, I think this week would have been extremely tough! I don...

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Bianca Del Rio recaps the latest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s twelfth episode, Laganja Estranja and Bianca start a rumor about a never-aired lip sync between the two of them on season 6, among other things. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In their recap of episode 12, Laganja names Mistress Isabelle Brooks and Luxx Noir London as her two faves of the season, though she likes all of the top six. Bianca liked that for once her guest didn’t name Sasha Colby as her favorite, though admittedly they both are rooting for her. One thing Laganja and Bianca are tired of hearing from the girls is their “in my __ era” tag line that they say has been run in to the ground by this point. On that topic,...

Each week on “Whatcha Packin’,” Michelle Visage interviews the recently eliminated queen and shows us some of the runway looks they didn’t get the chance to use on the show. Following her episode 12 elimination, a “very nervous” Salina EsTitties describes what it was like for her to be in the bottom so often and how she learned to “stop your mind chatter.” Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In her conversation with Salina, Michelle gave Salina words of wisdom about how to receive feedback without taking it personally. She explained that as a judge she critiques the queens with the goal of telling them “what would be the best for you.” She told Salina that she “grew exponentially” during her time on the show and she’s proud of her for that.

When it came to Salina’s style, Michelle said...

By the end of episode 12 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on March 17, Salina EsTitties was fighting for her life in a fourth trip to the Lip Sync for Your Life this season. This time she was pitted against Loosey Laduca, in the bottom for her first time, after both were named by the other queens as the two most deserving of being sent home. Vote in our poll below to tell us if the judges made the right choice in sending Salina home this week.

This week the judges were happy with the performances that all six queens delivered in “Wigloose: The Rusical!” Loosey had set her sights on the starring role of Heaven Bacon during role selection and had to fight Luxx Noir London and Mistress Isabelle Brooks in order to land the role. After the heated argument, Salina comforted Loosey who was feeling triggered by memories of being...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on March 17 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the queens stood on stage in pairs for a stand up comedy challenge. In keeping with the spirit of iconic duos, both Luxx Noir London and Loosey Laduca were named challenge winners and Marcia Marcia Marcia was asked to “sashay away” following an impressive Lip Sync for Your Life against Anetra.

This week, the final six combined their dancing and acting talents to perform in the topical off-off-off Broadway show “Wigloose” about the cultural value of drag. Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 12 titled “Wigloose: The Rusical!” was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage, judge Ross Mathews, and music artist Orville Peck.

The seven queens still in the competition are: Anetra, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties, and Sasha Colby.

There are certain Drag Race staples that fans anxiously await every season: Snatch Game, the reading challenge, the Rusical and, of course, the moment RuPaul forces each queen to publicly announce who they would eliminate.

Remember how crushed Miz Cracker was when Asia O’Hara accused her of not being a star? Or when Bianca Del Rio snapped at BenDeLaCreme for insinuating that she was merely “sailing” in the competition? And who could forget Rebecca Glasscock’s iconic answer: “Do we just get to pick one?”

The contestants of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 15 are confronting anti-drag hate in the show’s latest episode. On Friday, the queens performed in a Wigloose Rusical, a reimagined version of Footloose where a local teacher is attempting to ban drag, as the queens opened up about their fears of new laws.

“With everything presently going on in the world, it feels like we’re taking a giant step back,” Anetra said.

Last week’s episode of Ru Paul’s Drag Race marked the two hundredth episode of the American version of the show and so to celebrate the entire episode was dedicated to celebrating some of the most iconic moments in the show’s fifteen-year history! This included a mini-challenge where the queens photo-bombed attention-grabbing moments from previous sessions, the queens discussed their favourite moments and a ball maxi challenge with one category being focussed on re-imagining previous ball categories! I really enjoy when the producers of the show decide to tie sections of the show together as it helps to create a cohesive viewing experience for anyone watching. After putting up a good fight (to the surprise of everyone) in the lip-sync, Spice was sadly told to sashay away which means that both twins are officially out of the competition.

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Bianca Del Rio recaps the latest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s eleventh episode, Plastique Tiara makes her “Pit Stop” debut following appearances in many “Drag Race” tours since her time on season 11. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In their recap of episode 11, Plastique is not shy about her dislike for Salina EsTitties, saying she doesn’t deserve to have survived three lip syncs and feels the “execution is just not there” on the runway. She also has harsh words for “pick me girl” Loosey Laduca and Luxx Noir London who suffers from “self-delusion.”

Despite their concerns for their personalities, when it came to the comedy challenge, Bianca and Plastique thought that Loosey and Luxx were in the best position to do really well in the challenge after...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on March 10 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the queens wore their journalism hats in celebrity interviews with Charo, Love Connie, and Frankie Grande. The one-on-ones got the best of Malaysia Babydoll Foxx and Salina EsTitties who fell to the bottom two with Malaysia being asked to “sashay away.”

This week, the final seven work take the stage in comedy duos in front of a live audience. Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 11 titled “Two Queens, One Joke” was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage, judge Ts Madison, and comedy actress Ali Wong.

The seven queens still in the competition are: Anetra, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Marcia Marcia Marcia, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties, and Sasha Colby.

Check out our full recap of episode 11 below:

Following Malaysia’s elimination, Salina...

Stand-up comedy is one of the toughest challenges on RuPaul's Drag Race. The judges put a lot of pressure on the queens to craft a funny stand-up routine. They want to hear all the jokes.

The latest comedy show on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 11 showed how certain queens could thrive (or stumble) under the set-up.

Either you've got the comedy skill, or the lack killed all your chances. Safe to say the consistently safe queen couldn't hide from this showcase.

"Two Queens, One Joke" was a roller coaster of jokes and cringeworthy silence. RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 still has plenty of comedy queens left in the competition, so the odds were high that we'd be in for a good time.

Between Mistress constantly roasting the cast and the queens bantering with each other, we knew they could make us laugh. But delivering for the stand-up show was another story.

Like the great Angela Bassett before her, Marcia Marcia Marcia did the thing on Friday’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Mind you, “the thing” was not winning this week’s maxi challenge, as Marcia didn’t exactly wow the judges with her one-woman comedy show. Nor was it the runway category, as the judges read her for basically wearing a variation of Loosey Laduca’s pageant runner-up look from the Crystal Ball.

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on March 3 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, RuPaul Charles invited the queens to “The Crystal Ball,” a fashionable celebration of the show’s 200th episode. This week, the 8 remaining girls in “50/50’s Most Gagworthy Stars.”

Can the queens pull out their interview skills in front of the cameras? That was the big question on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 10.

Drag Race has done "interview" Maxi Challenges in the past; it's a great game to test the queens' charisma and ability to think of their feet. Showing off their personality can be the trick to shining and wowing the judges.

But if a queen gets overwhelmed, they can't turn away from the cameras. It's a live challenge!

"50/50's Most Gagworthy Stars" proved that many of the queens from RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 can have careers as interview hosts. Many of them did a great job!

The round was cheeky, fun, and completely unpredictable. The celebrity guests kept these queens on their toes; it was hilarious for us viewers and surprising for the queens, just like an actual interview.

Before getting into the Maxi Challenge, we must...

By the end of episode 9 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on February 24, Spice and Salina EsTitties were both making their second trips to the bottom two. Following a three-look “Crystal Ball,” Spice and Salina were sent to the Lip Sync for Your Life to perform the Lil Nas X song “That’s What I Want.” Salina was declared the winner and Spice was sent back to the Werk Room to clean up her things.

We asked in a recent poll if Spice was the right queen to “sashay away” and a majority of fans think that the judges got this one wrong. Instead of Spice going home, 55% of those polled believe that Salina was more deserving of elimination. Only 23% of fans think that the judges got it right with eliminating Spice. The rest of the votes were evenly split among the other three options: No One, Other, and Both. For the other option,...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on February 24 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the queens were thrilled to RuPaul Charles what they can do in the “LipSync Lalaparuza Smackdown.” In the final round of the tournament, Anetra defeated Jax, sending the queen of acrobatics home after five total lip syncs. This week, the 9 remaining girls celebrate the show’s 15th anniversary and 200th episode with “The Crystal Ball.”

Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 9 was Emmy winning host RuPaul, longtime bestie Michelle Visage and recurring judge Carson Kressley. Joining them this week as special guest was actor Julia Garner.

The 10 queens still in the competition are: Anetra, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Malaysia Babydoll Foxx, Marcia Marcia Marcia, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties, Sasha Colby, and Spice.

When Ru arrives the...

Two hundred episodes?! Drag Race has made its mark in herstory.

It's an iconic week on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 9, and the queens are here to celebrate. They took the drama, the joy, and the style to The Crystal Ball.

Twenty-seven looks strutted the runway, but only one queen landed at the top. Anything can happen at a Ball!

"The Crystal Ball: Episode 200" was a heartwarming and exciting round that gave us a lot of nostalgia and fashion.

For anyone who has watched Drag Race over the years, there were plenty of callouts to iconic moments from the franchise. Even the scenes and one-liners that blew up in pop culture got a shoutout. It's a great nod because Drag Race loves its nostalgia and herstory.

And that fun started with a long overdue Mini Challenge.

Was anyone else excited to have the Mini Challenge return? It has felt like...

It’s appropriate that RuPaul threw the Crystal Ball for Friday’s 200th episode of Drag Race, because this week’s results doubled as a look into the future.

That’s how I see it, anyway. Sasha Colby was the belle of Season 15’s ball, showcasing her personal style and versatility with three incredible looks. First, she was the only queen to truly reinvent Ru’s iconic jumpsuit, reimagining it as a slinky, midriff-baring gown. And that weed-themed “dime bag” dress was so fantastically camp, it gave me a contact high.

In the sneak peak we see the mini challenge play out in full. Each queen gets into quick “attention grabbing” drag and then “photo bombs” an iconic moment from Drag Race herstory. Salina EsTitties bombs Laganja Estranja‘s season 6 entrance, Anetra bombs Willow Pill‘s talent performance, Malaysia Babydoll Foxx bombs Vanessa Vanjie Mateo‘s iconic elimination exit, Spice bombs Lady Gaga, Luxx Noir London bombs Vivacious in her photo challenge, Mistress Isabelle Brooks bombs Morgan McMichaels and Ru together, Marcia Marcia Marcia bombs the crowning of Jinkx Monsoon,...

By the end of episode 8 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on February 17, Jax found herself once again on stage in front of the judges to lip sync for her life. This time it was at the culmination of a “LipSync Lalaparuza Smackdown” that left her opposite Anetra after they each lost in two previous head-to-heads. Ultimately Anetra bested Jax in the final showdown after Anetra saved Spice from having to perform.

We asked in a recent poll if Jax was the right queen to “sashay away” by the end of the smackdown and almost half of you said yes. At the time of this writing, 45% of the voters in the poll believe Jax deserved to go home. Another 36% actually thought someone else should have been eliminated, voting “Other.” Only 5% think Anetra should have went home so the prevailing assumption is that the “other” votes are directed at Spice. There’s...

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Bianca Del Rio recaps the latest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s eighth episode, Brooke Lynn Hytes stops by as a lip sync assassin in her own right to critique this season’s ultimate performance extravaganza. Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.

In their recap of episode 8, Brooke Lynn tells Bianca that it’s refreshing to see a crop of queens this season that “aren’t afraid to say shit.” In that spirit, Brooke Lynn doesn’t shy away from doing it herself when she openly recommends to Loosey Laduca that she “chills out and takes a breath.” What she doesn’t like is that its’ so clear how badly she wants to win and thinks she just needs to relax a little bit. On the opposite end of the spectrum,...

By the end of episode 8 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on February 17, Jax found herself once again on stage in front of the judges to lip sync for her life.

Those five winners earned safety for the remainder of the tournament and...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on February 17 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, the infamous “Daytona Wind” soap opera was rebooted as a sitcom, but Aura Mayari was unable to gather herself in the comedic challenge and was sent home. This week, the 10 remaining girls are put to the ultimate performance test in a “LipSync Lalaparuza Smackdown.”

Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 8 was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage and recurring judge Ross Mathews.

The 10 queens still in the competition are: Anetra, Jax, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Malaysia Babydoll Foxx, Marcia Marcia Marcia, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties, Sasha Colby, and Spice.

Reflecting on the judges’ decisions from last week, Mistress Isabelle Brooks was thrilled to have entered the winner’s circle...

Is that blood in the water? No, it's a bloodbath!

The claws came out, and the stunts were brought to the main stage on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 8.

No one is safe during the Lalaparuza. We were on the edge of our seats to see how this round would turn out. (And it didn't disappoint!)

"LipSync Lalaparuza Smackdown" packed plenty of high tension and energy into one round. Fans of the lip-syncing eliminations would love this competition.

There are no Maxi Challenges to throw the queens off. No runways to judge the taste level. The decision is all about lip-syncing, something the queens get paid to do on a daily/weekly basis.

I love this tournament!

RuPaul's Drag Race has done variations of this Maxi Challenge. Whether battling it out as a twist or a knockout-style tournament, the drama will always whittle down to one queen getting the boot.

We’ve got to hand it to RuPaul — after 15 seasons of Drag Race, she still has plenty of genuine surprises up her sleeve. Even when she’s not wearing any sleeves!

Friday’s episode pit the remaining 10 queens against each other in a LALAPaRuza lip sync smackdown, one that ended with a three-part twist that left us so gagged we could vomit. (In a good way!)

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continues Friday night with Jax having to find a way out of placing in the bottom two for a third straight week. Unfortunately, she won’t be able to escape lip synching again because this week all of the queens will be performing at least once on the Main Stage. Watch the first four minutes of episode 8 now via the official Drag Race YouTube channel.

Reflecting on the judges’ decisions from last week, Mistress Isabelle Brooks is thrilled to have entered the winner’s circle as the top performer of the week, but Loosey Laduca admits to being “very, very upset” that she was only safe and not selected to be in the top. She explained to the other girls that she is “surprised and annoyed” because she feels she “carried a lot of the...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 continued on February 10 with the next step in the competition toward discovering “America’s next drag superstar.” Last week, Aura Mayari was the stand out “golden gal” in the girl group challenge while Robin Fierce faded into the background and was asked to “sashay away.” This week, the 11 remaining girls star in the new sitcom reboot of last year’s “The Daytona Wind.”

Seated at the judges’ dais for episode 7 was Emmy winning host RuPaul Charles, longtime bestie Michelle Visage and recurring judge Carson Kressley. They were joined by actor Harvey Guillén as this week’s guest judge.

The 11 queens still in the competition are: Anetra, Aura Mayari, Jax, Loosey Laduca, Luxx Noir London, Malaysia Babydoll Foxx, Marcia Marcia Marcia, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Salina EsTitties, Sasha Colby, and Spice.

Following Robin’s elimination, the...

The Daytona Wind has rolled in, smelling like a sitcom.

The acting challenge separated the comedians from the casualties on RuPaul's Drag Race Season 15 Episode 7. Acting challenges are hit or miss because it all depends on the script's strength and which roles the queens get.

And in true Drag Race fashion, some queens benefited from their starring roles while others struggled to shine. It's just another day on the soap opera set!

"The Daytona Wind 2" was a cheeky round full of canned jokes and tense drama.

Even with the joy of having the hilarious acting challenge return, much of the focus stuck on "Metalgate." The drama overshadowed everything until it could have its natural ending, which happened pretty quickly and easily.

The most heated moment started at the top of the episode during the regroup couches. Like it was fresh on their minds, so they had to vent and get it out there.

At the end of episode 6 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” season 15 on February 3, Robin Fierce and Jax found themselves lip synching for their lives, both for the first time. Following their head-to-head to “In Your Room” by The Bangles, Robin was asked to “sashay away,” but both underwhelmed fans in the lip sync and the girl group challenge.

We asked in a recent poll if the judges made the right decision and voters are split, almost evenly over whether Robin or Jax should have been the one to go. At the time of this writing, Robin had 38.3 of the vote while Jax had 36.8. There was also 11 of fans that thought a different queen should have been eliminated instead of either of them. Anetra was also in the bottom three, so voters could be thinking she deserved the “sashay.”

Here are the complete poll results for who fans think should have been...
