Season 8s unapologetic iconoclast Acid Betty returns to the competition to kick ass and take names. Shes a gifted visual artist whose punk rock vibes and unfiltered attitude stood out in the workroom and on the Mainstage, making her a hardcore contender for the crown."But what do we think?Rachel: Im excited to see Acid Betty coming back. I feel like Drag Race itself has changed so much since season 8, and now there is a lot more room for her aesthetic. I hope she is just as acidic as she was in her season. I love the sisterhood, but also love it when it's a season-long reading challenge, too! Ricky: Absolutely. People have been wanting to see her on their screens for a long time and the competition is stacked. Will she rise to the challenge?Follow Acid Betty on Instagram and X.Aja"Ayo, sisAja is in the building! Part Harajuku, part hood, all attitude. This Brooklyn-bred banjee queen from Season 9 and All Stars 3 is back with a fast tongue, sickening vogue moves, and some unfinished business. Shes here to cement her legacyand snatch that crown."But what do we think?Rachel: Has been on a whole journey since the last time she was on our screens. I always really appreciate how she represents the ballroom roots of drag. She's hella feisty, always gives great soundbites, and I wanna see what she's gonna jump off of next. I also feel like after seeing her Give It To Me Straight and reuniting Kandy Muse and Dahlia Sin, she seems like she's in a happier place ... I can't wait to see her evolution.Ricky: Aja has too many iconic moments to count. Sickening lip syncs, shady reads, and legendary performances. As she said on All Stars 3, she has some unfinished business, and I know shell have plenty of stunts up her sleeve.Follow Aja on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Alyssa Hunter"Its officially hunting season, because the trade of Season 15, Alyssa Hunter is here! Fellow contestants better watch out you might end up as prey for this polished pageant queen, because this Puerto Rican knockout has her sights set on All Stars glory!"But what do we think?Ricky: Drag Race fans everywhere remember Alyssas short run on season 14. She was undeniably the trade of the season, but a money gun resulted in her sashaying away prematurely in the competition. Could the Puerto Rican queen make it to the end this time around?Rachel: Yeah, I agree. There was so much untapped potential there. Crystal Envy reminded me a bit of her in season 17. Totally gorgeous, and polished with a run that was cut way too short. Super glad to see her back and excited to see how shes grown, especially since her drag was already at such a high caliber on her season.Follow Alyssa Hunter on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Bosco"Seattles demon queen is backwith a monster appetite for the crown! Bosco was saved from elimination by a golden chocolate bar in Season 14 and clawed her way to the Finale. Now this burlesque beauty is armed with cutting-edge fashion and razor-sharp wit and shes ready to slice through the competition!"But what do we think?Rachel: The eyebrows of my dreams are back! But seriously, I love Bosco. I really hope this season we get to see more of her spooky side and her sisterhood with Irene!Ricky: Bosco has grown so much as an artist and as a person since her time on season 14. Its been so amazing seeing her embrace her trans identity and elevate her drag over the past few years. Im sure shell be stiff competition, just like the first time.Follow Bosco on Instagram and X.Cynthia Lee Fontaine"Its time to get Cucu! The beloved queen of Seasons 8 and 9 is back! This Puerto Rican singer, cancer survivor, and activist from Texas has the heart of a champion and a zany charm thatll tickle your funny bone. Preprate para enamorarte de nuevo!"But what do we think?Ricky: Her CuCu is back! Cynthia Lee Fontaine is just a total sweetheart. As season 8s Miss Congeniality, Im excited to bring overall good vibes back to the werkroom.Rachel: Yes, I am Cucu for this casting! What a lovable queen, I am so ready to see her and her legendary booty back in the Werk Room.Follow Cynthia Lee Fontaine on Instagram and TikTok.Daya Betty"The statuesque punk rock powerhouse of Season 14 is back! After an early elimination, Daya Betty battled her way to the Grand Finale, proving shes the ultimate comeback kid. Bold, outspoken, and relentlessshes hungry for the crown and willing to go all the way."But what do we think?Ricky: Daya Betty really redeemed herself on season 14. From being the queen first out, to make it all the way to the finale, I really think she has a lot to prove this time around. The fans were really hard on her during season 14, so Im very curious to see how her personality will read on All Stars. I personally love her and think shes so talented and kind, so Im really excited to see whats to come from her.Rachel: Totally agree, I feel like that season everyone was clutching pearls over her speaking her mind. In this house we stan an outspoken queen especially one as talented as Daya. I am still Daya-ing over her Betty Page fetish-inspired Catwalk look.Follow Daya Betty on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Deja Skye"Season 14s pastel princess is back, bringing that beautiful mug, a bright sense of humor, and a personality as big as her talent. She single-handedly saved her seasons Snatch GameYay-yuh! Now, the skys the limit for DeJa in this competition, okayyyy!But what do we think?Rachel: Is this the year we finally get our Winner/Miss Congeniality double crowning? Can I just say how much I love Deja, she is so warm and funny, and single-handedly saved that Snatch Game. Am I happy shes back? Yay-yuh! Ricky: Deja is so underrated in my opinion. She served up amazing lip-syncs during season 14 and brought an overall sweet energy that just radiated on screen. I definitely have a soft spot for Ms. Skye! Deja Skye on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Denali"Drags gold medal bitch has entered the tournament! Denali is an ice-skating athlete turned lip-sync assassin, and shes trained hard for the Olympics of Drag. Queens bewareshe just might triple lutz and leave the other queens skating on thin ice!"But what do we think?Ricky: Im so happy Denali has finally made it to All Stars. Her elimination has to be one of the most controversial of all time, and she had what it took to make it to the finale on season 13. She has certainly won over the fans since her first time around, so hopefully her run on All Stars really showcases all of her incredible talents.Rachel: There are a handful of lip-sync performances I regularly go back and watch, and Denali facing off against Kahmora Lee Hall to Crystal Waters 100% Pure Love is one I will never get enough of. Denali brings it on all fronts, but one thing we can be sure of is that were in for some phenomenal lip-syncs.Follow Denali on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Ginger Minj"Ribbit-Ribbit. The glamour toad and southern-fried queen of sass, Ginger Minj, is back to get this competition cooking! This campy powerhouse from Season 7, All Stars 2 and 6 has been wowing fans for years on tours, in Vegas, in films and TV projects and shes a cookbook author! Shes now ready for the next chapter in her story becoming a winner, Baby!!"But what do we think?Rachel: Third All Stars is the charm? Honestly, Ginger is one of those queens that I am always so happy to have back on my screen like a Jujubee. Shes one of those queens who is just all-around excellence, so its great to have her back. Shes going to crush the acting and comedy challenges, I can't wait to see it.Ricky: To be completely honest, Im so gagged Ginger Minj is back. At this point, I would have assumed shed compete on a Vs. The World franchise, so for this to be her fourth time in the werkroom Ms. Minj has a lot to prove, and Im sure shell rise to the occasion.Follow Ginger Minj on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Irene the Alien"Greetings, earthlings! Irene the Alien has landed from Seattle, ready to disrupt the competition. Her time on Season 15 was short, but she made a lasting impact. This go around, her far-out looks and flair for the otherwordly, will show the judges shes no one-episode wonder!"But what do we think?Rachel: Ok, I am PUMPED for this one. For me Irene was one of the most shocking first-outs, in Drag Race herstory. You could really tell she was going to be a player from minute one and had SO much to show. Plus, I just loved her chaotic villain energy right out of the gate. I felt robbed of a season of her and Mistress Isabelle Brooks cutting up in the Werk Room, I am so excited we are getting a second round. Is it wrong that I hope she makes a glass of ice again as her talent? Ricky: We were SO robbed of Irene the first time around. Her and Mistress together on season 15 would have been the chaotic duo we didnt know we needed. For her to be on this season with her drag sister Bosco AND Mistress? This will be entertainment at its finest.Follow Irene the Alien on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Jorgeous"Its getting muggy in here! Hello-tis, its your girl Jorgeous! Fresh off All Stars 9, this pint-sized diva from Season 14 is back to gag the judges with her electrifying performances and remind the world that she was born to do drag. Spicy, stunning, and ready to slayshes living proof that dynamite comes in small packages!"But what do we think?Ricky: Jorgeous is definitely one of the most surprising names on the list since she just competed on All Stars 9 last year. This firecracker of a queen is one of the best dancers to ever be on the show and her extremely likable personality could help her finally snatch a crown!Rachel: I was literally going to say: Firecracker! Her growth between season 14 and All Stars 9 was incredible, so I cant wait to see Jorgeous 3.0. Also, if I recall, didnt Daya Betty send her home during their season? Oooh gurl, I sense a rematch!Follow Jorgerous on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Kerri Colby"A beautiful baddie straight from the doll factory, Kerri Colby is serving face, body, and hair for the ages. Repping the legendary House of Colby, the confessional queen of Season 14 has business to attend tostarting with getting her puss-perfect portrait in the Drag Race Hall of Fame."But what do we think?Ricky: Who doesnt love a Colby? Kerri Colby literally made me feel safe as a queer person watching her on-screen and the same can be said for the season 14 cast! So many queens came out as trans either on the show or after filming wrapped and many of them said Kerri Colbys confidence helped them come to terms with their identity. A true MOTHER in every way!Rachel: Seriously! How do we get her an appointment in the Oval Office? She could heal this country with the sheer power of her trans fierceness. Speaking of which, shes another queen whose evolution I can't wait to see. She already is stunning and can work the runway, and I'm excited to see how she tackles the comedy and acting challenges this season. Follow Kerri Colby on Instagram and TikTok.Lydia B. Kollins"Fresh off Season 17, spooky kooky Lydia B. Kollins is making a U-turn back into the werkroom to show shes been an All Star all along! Her irreverent drag and stamped mug took her far last season, but now this butthole is ready to go all the wayand shes itching for the crown. No ointment for that!"But what do we think?Ricky: This is CRAZY! How did Lydia film season 17 and then turn around and go right back to All Stars?! Did the queens even know who she was? Were they feeling punked? Does Lydia essentially have to reintroduce herself to all of these Drag Race legends? I need Lydia to spill all of the tea. She already has a diehard fan base and her talent speaks for itself, so these other queens better watch out! Imagine how gaggy it would be if she WON All Stars! What did Kori do while Lydia was back on set, LOL?Rachel: The butthole is back! I am still not over that scissors-related incident on the mainstage, but nature is healing and so is my heart with the news that already we are going to have Miss Lydia back. The turn-around is admittedly very quick, it only happened once before when Chad Michaels went from season 4 directly into All Stars 1, which she won. Just sayin'Follow Lydia B. Kollins on Instagram and TikTok.Mistress Isabelle Brooks"The heavyweight champ of Season 15 is back in the ring, ready to knock out the competition! This larger-than-life Houston diva pulls no punches when it comes to drag pageantryand she lives to stir the pot. With Mistress, there are no safe words, no mercy, and zero tolerance for drag delusion Get ready to submit."But what do we think?Rachel: I am in my obsessed era with this cast. MIB is one of those queens who was really great on her season and then super popped afterward. She has so much charisma and polish, I think she is a major contender this season. Also, I can't wait for all the Werk Room shade and those confessionals are going to be legendarily shady!Ricky: I will be honest, I was surprised Mistress returned to All Stars so soon. Her career has blossomed so much since she competed in season 15, so I thought shed wait a little longer to compete again. Regardless though, I am THRILLED shell be back on my screen. She really brought back a good Drag Race villain and she wasnt afraid of the consequences.Follow on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Nicole Paige Brooks"Hey yall, its Nicole Paige Brooks From ATLANTA, GEORGIA! Fifteen years after her Season 2 debut, this veteran is back to show the children how its done. And, yes, her pronouns are 'legend' and 'icon'!"But what do we think?Rachel: We had so much fun getting the tea with this queen at DragCon she truly is one of a kind. One of the things I love so much about All Stars is getting the chance to catch up with queens from the earlier season. Also, I hope they bring back the pole dancing challenge. Remember when they used to set the queens loose on the streets of Los Angeles? I miss the chaos!Ricky: This is what All Stars should be! Bring back the OGs! Yes, I love all of the queens who have competed recently, but All Stars should also serve as a reminder that Drag Race wouldnt be the pop culture phenomenon it is today without the OG queens who competed on Logo TV. Nicole gets a proper reintroduction to all of the new fans and Im so ready for it.Follow Nicole Paige Brooks on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Olivia Lux"The delightful diva with the megawatt smile is back for the crown! Olivia Lux lit up Season 13, and now she shines even brighter. A trained musician and proud member of the Miyake-Mugler ballroom house, shes bringing even more star power to the Main Stage. And this time? Shes not playing nice."But what do we think?Ricky: Olivia Lux was underestimated by her competitors on season 13, so will the queens on All Stars 10 be intimidated by her? Im very intrigued to see how Olivia has grown in her drag since her first time around. She was still considered a baby queen when she competed in season 13, but she had a polish and incredible skill set that made her stand out.Rachel: Olivia is one of the most beautiful queens in the shows history. I look forward to seeing how a few years of performing around the world have impacted her drag. I suspect she is going to be lethal. Also, curious to see where she and her season 13 sister Tina Burner stand today. If I recall, there was a little tension between the two. Friendship? Frenemies? I can't wait to see how this turns out.Follow Olivia Lux on Instagram, X, and TikTok.Phoenix"Phoenix rises from the ashes of Season 3bigger, bolder, and ready to burn up her fellow queens. This boss bitch from the Atlanta drag scene has a fierce competitive streak, and wants to show the judges that after all these years, her charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent is still on fire!"But what do we think?Rachel: Prison, honey! Phoenix is absolutely iconic and I am so excited she will be back. She represents DRAG, drag and I live for it. She's another queen who has had so much growth from her season and I am excited for newer fans of the show to see what she's bringing. [Editor's note: This is my PSA to anyone who hasn't watched the first few seasons of Drag Race, get into it! You dont know what you're missing!]Ricky: Similar to Nicole Paige Brooks, Im so excited to see another OG on All Stars 10. The early-season queens are seasoned, literally! They have grit, wit, and years of experience thatll help them put these younger contestants in their place.Follow Pheonix on Instagram and TikTok.Tina Burner"Hell yeah! New Yorks premier camp comedy queen, Tina Burner is back to turn it and burn it! After blazing through Season 13, this veteran diva is taking a pit stop from her tours and residencies to set the competition aflame. And yes, shes still on fire!"But what do we think?Rachel: Are you thinking what Im thinking? .... Makeover challenge. LOL! That Ros reveal still makes me cackle! Tina coming back is so exciting, she struck me as a queen who didn't quite ever let herself fully be herself in her season, and I hope we get to see her really let loose because it's really clear she's an incredible queen. I also hope she has more fun with the color palette of her package.Ricky: Tina will definitely be interesting to watch. I feel like she really relied on her aesthetic and reputation in New York to help her throughout the competition, but All Stars 10 is a completely different ballgame. Will she set the competition on fire or get put out too quickly?Follow Tina Burner on Instagram, X, and TikTok.
