Are you fabulous? Spring is nigh when we get the tune in alerts for VH1 epic series RuPaul’s Drag Race which promises the returning award-winning series will go down in herstory.
In her preview, RuPaul says: “Gentlemen, I have a surprise so big, you’ll never see it coming. You bitches aren’t ready.”
So…What are you waiting for? Drag is white-hot and it’s time to join the Ruvolution.
Do it for your country! Watch as RuPaul has aligned AOC (Bronx representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez), plus Jeff Goldblum, Whoopi Goldberg and Nicki Minaj and more who are going to pledge allegiance…to the drag.
This is going to be a fun season for sure.
Who are the queens for season 12 of RuPaul’s Drag Race?

Polynesian New Yorkers don’t come much sassier and snarkier. Everyone in New York City knows Brita for her famous lip-syncs, she works so hard some think she’s a Jamaican!

Kind of MILF-y, kind of Evel Knievel-ish, this leggy fashion queen is a baby at age 21, and her age means she has the social media game down cold with gazillions of loyal fans.
Heidi N Closet of Ramseur, NC

A bit Channing, a bit nana, this chiseled and contoured polished old-school queen serves up ace mimicry and counts Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett as her muses.
