When RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16 takes the stage, get ready for glitz, glamour, and fierce rivalry. A $200,000 cash prize and the coveted title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar” are up for grabs, and fourteen gorgeous queens are ready to steal the stage.
This season is a major celebration of Drag Race’s 15 years, showcasing talent and individuality alike. This historic season promises to showcase moments that will make you laugh aloud and show off the progression of drag brilliance. It has become a cultural phenomenon.
The much anticipated RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16 trailer dropped on YouTube on December 14, 2023. It was soon clear that the 14 fearless queens were up against increasingly fierce competition. As the race begins, viewers can expect nothing less than the toughest looks and jaw-dropping performances on the storied Drag Race stage.
Drama, of course, is an essential part of RuPaul’s Drag Race. As the tensions among the queens build, so does the pressure to perform well throughout the tasks. Carson Kressley, Charlize Theron, Sarah Michelle Geller, and other well-known judges are among the elite group of judges that these queens will face off against in order to leave their mark on the panel and each other.
