Between the United States and Canada, there’s already a lot of Drag Race on TV right now. You’re going to have to find room in your schedule to add one more to your watchlist. RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World is coming back, and we’ve got the details on what’s in store.
Can the UK be toppled in RPDR UK vs The World Season 3?
The first two editions of UK vs The World saw the title go to the UK. Blu Hydrangea won the first season, back when the only prize was a verse on a RuPaul song. The next season went to Tia Kofi, and it’s a win that some fans are still debating online. Now, a surprising new crop of global superstars will compete for €50,000 and the coveted title of Queen of the Mothertucking World. Check out the cast lineup below.
- Fontana (Sweden)
- Gawdland (Thailand)
- Kate Butch (UK)
- Mariah Balenciaga (US)
- Melinda Verga (Canada)
- Minty Fresh (Philippines)
- The Only Naomy (Germany)
- Serena Morena (Mexico)
- Sminty Drop (UK)
- Zahirah Zapanta (UK)
A true global competition, the cast for Season 3 of UK vs The World has queens from every corner of the Drag Race universe. Sminty Drop, Zahirah Zapanta, and Kate Butch will represent the UK, and they’ve got big shoes to fill for their home country.
Mariah Balenciaga joins the competition as the eldest queen in the bunch and the only American competitor. After originally competing on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 3 and returning for All Stars 5, she’s hoping that the third time will be a charm.
Another big standout in the lineup is Melinda Verga. She made waves on Canada’s Drag Race Season 4 before returning to TV on The Traitors Canada. In a statement, she made it clear that she’s ready to bring some of those Traitor-hunting skills into the Werk Room.
“I’m ready for some backstabbing and manipulation. I’ll send these bitches home,” Melinda teased.
Season 3 is coming soon. Keep your eyes peeled for more details on the premiere date. In the meantime, go ahead and start making your guesses about which queens will make it to the finale.
RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World is streaming on WOW Presents+.
