Queens of the Universe, These drag queens can sing
Queens of the Universe is coming to Paramount Plus. It is a spin-off of RuPaul’s Drag Race but instead of Lipsinquing for their lives, the Queens will sing live. Drag queens from around the world will be singing live in this competition. RuPaul will not be hosting the show because she is already hosting the US, UK, and Australia of Drag Race. Drag Race is such a successful franchise that it gave drag queens the platform to be mainstream. Who would have thought that a show that started as a rip-off of America’s Next Top Model is still going strong while ANTM is now canceled? It even outlived those singing competitions with 1 Million dollar prizes.
Talent shows like American Idol and The Voice had been failing to make new stars. Drag Race on the other hand managed to make a lot of household names out of drag queens. Many Alumni and winners from the show had successful careers in movies, stage, and television.
Graham Norton will be hosting Queens of the Universe. Norton is not new to Drag queens, He use to date the drag queen Tina Burner. Michelle Visage, will be one of the judges and she will be joined by Leona Lewis,Vanessa Williams and Drag Race Alumni Trixie Mattel.
14 contestants from around the world will compete for the $250 thousand cash prize. Some of the contestants are familiar like Jujubee who is three-time grand finalist of Rupaul’s Race. Will she finally win after falling out short as a finalist 3 times? She is also ready for more pain because she is also a participant in an international All-Star edition of the drag race.
American Idol Alumni, Ada Vox is also a contestant on this competition to represent USA. One by one, these queens will sashay away until only 1 left to win the crown. You can watch Queens of the Universe at Paramount Plus this December 2.
