Jan keeps the promise that she made in season 12. Jiggly Caliente was on season 4 of Drag Race. Kylie Sonique Love is from season 2 of Drag Race and the holiday special.
Pandora Boxx was a fan favorite on season 2 of Drag Race and appeared on All Stars 1. Ra’Jah O’Hara appeared on season 11, reuniting her with Davenport. Also coming in from season 11? It’s Scarlet Envy. Serena Cha Cha appeared on Drag Race season 5. Silky Nutmeg Ganache is another season 11 queen. Trinity K. Bonet represents season 6. Yara Sofia is coming in from Drag Race season 3 and All Stars 1.
A better headspace
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the queens discussed each other and their own hopes for RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 6. Pandora Boxx shared a hope for redemption after a terrible attitude on All Stars 1, “It’s more about All-Stars 1, and I wanted a complete do-over of my wretched c–t attitude.” Boxx, however, said she is coming in a “a better headspace” for this round of the competition.
Also going through growth since the last time on Drag Race? Jiggly Caliente, who said, “I’m more aware of the woman that I am today than I was 10 years ago. So, when I filmed, I was 30, and I was going through a lot in my life at the time. I didn’t even realize there was so much going on until I saw myself on television and I was like, wow, you need help!”
Ra’Jah O’Hara said that she’s also looking for some redemption, “Leaving season 11, I got a lot of flak from the fans and viewers, so I have to prove who I am as a person and a queen, because what you saw on season 11 was just a stressed out, temperamental, insecure version of Ra’Jah.” It sounds like a lot of the queens are hoping to show their best faces to the fans of the franchise.
When can we expect RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 6?
RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 6 will premiere on Thursday, June 24 with two back-to-back episodes on Paramount+. After that, new episodes will drop weekly every Thursday on the streaming service.
