The Emmy-award-winning reality series is coming back for a new season.
The Big Picture Racers, start your engines and prepare for a sixteenth lap of the most fabulous show on television: RuPaul's Drag Race has been renewed for another season at MTV. Not only will viewers be introduced to an all-new batch of queens, but they'll be able to fall in love with some familiar faces all over again, as MTV and Paramount+ also announce a ninth season of RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars.
The upcoming seasons, which were previously filmed this summer, are slated to premiere next year, with all four shows produced by World of Wonder. First premiering on Logo back in 2009, Drag Race celebrated a landmark move this year as its fifteenth season made the move to MTV, following its move from Logo to VH1 in 2017.
The popularity of RuPaul's Drag Race has paved the way for a wave of new shows focused on drag; not only has Drag Race expanded across the globe with countless new regional spin-offs, but this year also saw the release of Hulu's mock cooking competition Drag Me To Dinner, as well as a second season of Paramount+'s drag-centric answer to Eurovision, Queen of the Universe.
Drag Race is a Beacon Amidst Growing Anti-LGBTQ+ Backlash The increased spotlight that has been placed on drag has coincided with growing backlash aimed at performers, as several states introduced anti-drag bills over the last year, including Texas, North Dakota, and Florida. This is something Drag Race producers are acutely aware of, as World of Wonder co-founders Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato established the Drag Defense Fund in partnership with the ACLU.
