BBC and World of Wonder introduced the 12 new queens entering the Werk Room. The full cast photo is a bit of a Photoshop nightmare, but the girls look wonderful in their solo shots. They’ve got the girls dolled up in a fantasy-themed photo shoot with crystals, fairies, butterflies, and jewel tones dominating the looks.
“Hey racers, it’s time to meet the magical new cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK,” Ru teases in the Meet the Queens promo.
The new crop of queens comes from all around the UK, bringing their unique drag styles to the mainstage. Seriously, they’ve got queens from all across the spectrum. There’s a 22-year-old queen named Viola, known for playing violin live on stage. On the other hand, they’ve got Tayris Mongardi, a 27-year-old Brighton performer who said their drag is a celebration of “Black female pop culture.” She cited artists like Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj as some of her inspirations.
The lineup also includes a “witchy boho queen” from Soho, London, a comedy queen from Dublin, and a “blonde bilingual bombshell” from South Wales. Tune in to find out which one of them will make a splash and who will end up getting the Porkchop treatment.
RuPaul’s Drag Race UK airs this Fall on iPlayer and WOW Presents Plus.
