Drag Race México Episodes 1 and 2 release date is what fans are hoping to know more about. This is an upcoming reality TV program set within the franchise of RuPaul’s Drag Race. The competition series will follow the same format as the rest of the drag races that take place across the globe.
While the show was starting its pre-production phase, many of the fans got to know about a new drag race being created for countries such as Brazil, Germany, and México. For the México one, fans called out various petitions in order for Valentina and Lolita to host the series.
Valentina is a drag performer in the United States who also serves as a television personality and singer. Back in 2017, she served as a contestant in the ninth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Well, her elimination from the show caused a huge controversy among fans because she was very popular at the time.
As for Lolita Banana, she is a Mexican drag performer. Her first debut in the races was during Drag Race France. She is natively from Mexico City but is currently residing in Paris. Also, Lolita’s fans from the country really loved her because she was the first contestant from Mexico to ever star in a Drag Race series.
Ultimately, the producers decided to put Valentina and Lolita Banana as the host of the upcoming Drag Race México season 1. The series is filmed in Spanish and is the second series from the franchise to opt for the language. The first one is Drag Race España. Only last month was a teaser released for the fans revealing more about the upcoming show for the fans.
