RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars Season 3
After months of Reddit-generated rumors, the cast of RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars Season 3 was finally revealed tonight in an hour special on VH1. I've been recently inducted into the RPDR fandom, having been introduced to the show last spring. Not even a year later I am completely obsessed with everything that RPDR and WOW have ever produced.
The queens who will be returning to the RuPaul's Drag Race stage for the third season of All Stars will be...
BenDeLaCreme
Season 6's terminally delightful Miss Congeniality is one of my all-time favorite queens for the positive energy and vibrant creativity she brought to the show.
Milk
Another queen from Season 6, I hope that Milk's quirky artistry will be better understood this time around. In the RuVeal we learned the fun fact that Milk was a figure skater growing up!
Trixie Mattel
I am deeply in love with everything Trixie Mattel and I can't wait for the Trixie and Katya Show to premier on Viceland. I was sad to see Trixie leave twice on Season 7 but I can't wait to see what Trixie has up her sleeve for this season of All Stars!
Shangela
Shangela is back for her third appearance on the RPDR franchise having graced the stage in Season 2 and Season 3. I only know her in the context of her legendary Untucked fight with Mimi Imfurst, so I'm looking forward to actually getting to see what she's made of this season!
Thorgy Thor
I'm sure I sound like a broken record, but I'm so excited to see Thorgy come back for All Stars! I thought she was hilarious and talented in Season 8, but got too tangled up in her own head trying to be a perfectionist. I'm looking forward to seeing her positive and goofy energy back on the RPDR stage!
Kennedy Davenport
One of the craziest facts revealed in the show tonight was that Kennedy Davenport, our favorite pageant queen from Season 7, served in the Navy! I wonder if she'll sink or swim in the competition this time around...
Aja
I high-key did not like Aja on Season 9. Her makeup always looked atrocious and her looks were poorly fabricated. Her skills in the challenges didn't blow me away, and she always seemed to be throwing shade at other queens when she was in no position to be doing so. Her shadiness in the reunion special redeemed her character for me, so I look forward to seeing what drama she gets embroiled in during All Stars!
Chi Chi DeVayne
Chi Chi grew so much on Season 8 and I'm excited to see what her drag looks like now that she's gotten even more experience off of the show. I already love her energy so I'm totally looking forward to seeing more from Chi Chi in All Stars!
Morgan McMichaels
I don't know a ton about Morgan McMichaels, as I am a newly converted member of the RPDR fandom, but from what I do know she is incredibly talented and gorgeous to boot.
I am absolutely thrilled by this cast and I know that, like any season of RPDR, All Stars Season 3 will not disappoint. There will be shade, looks, and eleganza galore! Plus, RuPaul hinted at the end of the cast RuVeal special that there may be another queen joining the cast...but we'll just have to wait for the premier to find out! I can't wait to see what crazy twists and challenges RuPaul has up her sleeve for this legendary season!
