Bonjour and welcome to Canada.

We're looking for the next global Drag Superstar.

The stakes are high and the heels are the highest.

Who will be queen of the world?

Iconic!

This one is about to go down in "herstory".

Find out on Canada's Drag Race:

Canada vs the World.

From the beginning...

Gorgeous!

Our racers have been thirsty.

- Yes! - But the twists...

- Whoa! - Oh, oh, oh, oh!

- Turns... - Ah!

And downright goofery on this racetrack...

Oh, boy!

Are back for a 15th lap.

Racers, start your engines,

and may the best drag queen...

win.

OK, somebody's wearing cheap perfume.

Oh, wait.

It's me.

I'm Irene Dubois.

I'm the alien queen of Seattle.

And I'm here to invade your television set.

My drag is very much inspired by sci-fi, fantasy,

and big, glamorous Texas drag queens.

I always want to look like I rule

some kind of alien kingdom.

Oh, my God, my new playground!

Oh, shit!

I grew up in Texas and had to get the fuck out of there,

so I hightailed it to Seattle.

And Bosco is actually my drag sister.

And we sort of came up in the Seattle drag scene together.

She went the demon route.

I went the alien route.

I am going to rip this place to shreds.

I have been honing my drag skills for the past ten years

with the sole purpose of taking home this crown.

God.

Gagged them a bit,

for sure.

My name is Luxx Noir London,

and I'm the physical embodiment of the word "superstar".

If I had to describe my drag aesthetic

in a couple simple words, I'd just say, like,

effervescent, diva, flawless, stunning, period.

Ah! Hi, how are you?

Nice of you to join us, bitch.

- Oh, my God. - Wait, what's your name?

- Irene Dubois. - I'm Luxx Noir London.

- You're gorge. - Thank you.

And what is that, 22 inches

of premium human hair, honey?

Oh, it's 40 inches, trust.

No, it's not.

It definitely is 40, human.

I think you might have gotten scammed, Miss Thing.

No, it's definitely 40, trust me.

Do we have a tape measure?

I could not believe the first second I walked in the room,

some bitch is saying that my hair is not 40 inches.

How dare you?

- Where are you from? - I'm from New Jersey.

What's the drag like in New Jersey?

It's OK.

- Um... - Uh-huh.

I would say that I'm definitely,

like, the prettiest.

Sure.

I have been told that I kind of come off a little,

like, arrogant sometimes,

but I think that's just because I'm confident.

I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way.

It's so pretty in here.

- Oh, my God. - It is.

It's very nice. It reminds me of your face.

Uh, thank you.

Bricks.

Oh, shit.

Do you feel that aura?

I bet you do.

- Hello, world. - My name is Aura Mayari.

And I am Nashville's best, most stunning,

and most electrifying drag performer.

Where is she walking to?

I am a dancer.

I do a lot of very high-energy number.

And I am your Filipina goddess.

Yes!

Goddess.

- Hey! - Hi, sister!

- Hi. - I'm Luxx Noir London.

- Luxx Noir London? - Nice to meet you.

Aura Mayari, nice to meet you.

Girl, you are out of breath already.

Girl, I was doing too much.

You were during the utmost.

Gotta show the fuck up.

Yes.

My drag is, you know,

a little bit of Beyoncé,

a little bit of Rihanna,

and a little bit of Justin Bieber,

because I put on a little bit of some, like,

masculine swag on stage when I perform.

I'm a performer.

What are you guys excited about?

I'm just excited to, like, win...

And, like, do really good and look really pretty.

Delusion.

- It's not delusion. - It's the truth.

Oh, my God, girl.

Season 15 of "RuPaul's Drag Race", I'm fucking here.

I'm fucking here to slay, bitches.

Whoo!

Oh, shit.

Ow, my nose.

My name is Marcia Marcia Marcia,

and I'm Mom's favorite.

What happened?

She looked under my skirt and got hit with a secret.

- Marcia Marcia Marcia is a "Brady Bunch"

reference to Marcia Brady.

My favorite Marcia Brady moment

is when she gets hit in the face with a football.

Marcia Marcia Marcia is, like, the prom queen.

She's the class president.

And she's really, really beautiful.

She kind of looks like Jan.

Ah!

My first impression of Marcia Marcia Marcia's drag

is basic.

How are you?

Oh, do you guys know each other?

- Yeah. - Yes, in New York.

I'm a trained singer, dancer, and actor.

I have a BFA in musical theater.

I've been in Broadway shows.

- You sing? - Yeah.

What type of, um, genre do you do?

I don't sing a lot in my live shows.

- OK. - But I mean,

in terms of pop music,

it's Ariana Grande, absolutely.

- Oh, yes. - Hands down.

Weaponizing that BFA, baby.

Yeah.

Ooh!

What?

Hey, bitches. It's your girl, Anetra,

the Sin City bombshell from Las Vegas, Nevada.

I would describe my drag as sexy, glamorous,

not great skin, but she does in drag.

How's your head?

Disgusting.

Oh, y'all look great.

Don't lie to them.

I am a stunt queen,

I believe is the term that they use.

I'm giving you splits, dips,

getting chips and eating some dip.

We're doing everything.

I have to ask because you don't have the wig on.

Is this, like, a common thing for you?

- Um, no. - I mean,

- it does happen occasionally. - Sure, yeah.

But usually, I have some hair on.

You don't even have a little pussycat under there?

I'm broke, so no.

Oh, sh...

I'm just here to fox shit up.

What did the fox say?

I am the beautiful, talented,

tantalizing, mesmerizing, sensational, motivational

Malaysia Babydoll Babydoll Babydoll Foxx!

Hey, y'all!

Hi! Nice to meet you.

- Where are you from? - I'm from Miami, Florida...

- The first queen from Miami. - Ooh!

Yes, Miami!

Miami drag is some of the best drag in the country.

I know, and it took 15 seasons

to finally get one of us here.

- Right. - Right?

Congratulations.

All the way from the M-I-A. I didn't come to play.

I'm from the 305 where it's all the way live.

I'm fat. I'm funny. I'm fabulous.

- You are stunning. - Do you do pageants?

- I've done a million pageants. - A million?

I'm not successful at them, though.

So like, do you do drag full-time,

or do you have, like, a day job?

I'm a hairstylist, makeup artist.

I work with a lot of celebrities.

Really?

I work with the City Girls.

- I love the City Girls. - Ah!

I also do Trina a lot.

Work, bitch.

I have been doing drag for about 13 or 14 years.

I'm a walking billboard of, like, artistry.

- Oh! - Oh!

I'm homo...

phobic.

I am Princess Poppy,

and I am a real-life fairy princess.

She's an artist, and she's sensitive about her shit.

Oh, my God.

My drag is very princessy.

It's very girly.

My performance style is the opposite.

I'm very eccentric, and I'm very irreverent.

I think my biggest achievement in drag

is going viral on TikTok

with the "I'm Homophobic" dress.

It's giving Twister, honey.

Right hand on yellow!

Paint me a happy little tree.

I'm funny. I can act.

I can sing. I can rap.

I can stick my ears in my ears.

- Yeah! - Hi!

Princess Poppy's look is basic but effective.

I don't know if she's a painter,

or she may be a drag queen.

She looks like a lovely white lady.

How long you been doing drag, Princess?

- Seven years, I want to say. - Nice.

- Since I was, like, 18. - Work.

I've been doing drag for ten years.

- What about you? - I've been doing drag,

like, on Instagram and stuff for, like, four years.

- OK. - But I've only been performing

for, like, a year and a half.

And then, you?

Like, Instagram for a year,

New York for a year.

A year?

- OK. - I know, let's get her.

She's like, I've been doing drag for a week.

I just showed up.

I'm noticing it's a lot of baby queens here.

They telling me

they're doing drag for one and two years.

Do you have the charisma, the uniqueness,

the nerve, and the talent?

We can be old, and these young bitches can

sit here and think that wearing human hair unstyled

is good enough to get to the end of this competition.

Oh, trust and believe...

I mean, I'd rather wear the unstyled hair than that.

Let me just run a flat iron through it real quick.

That'll do the job.

Ooh!

Is that Sasha Colby?

Period!

Diva, diva, diva!

Aloha, I'm Sasha Colby, former Miss Continental.

I am a singer, dancer, activist,

and all-around goddess.

Wowie, wow, wowzers.

- Yes. - Come on, body.

Yes, body.

Am I the body queen?

Am I the bod...

I'm not the body queen.

No, I'm the body queen.

Should we go home?

I am fierce, ferocious, and ready for battle.

I am Sasha, the warrior princess.

Everybody knows who Sasha Colby is.

Sasha Colby is a legend.

Sasha is competition.

It's a little intimidating.

Everybody's jaw is on the ground,

myself included.

Oh, I'm Sasha, by the way.

- Oh, listen, everybody... - We know, girl.

I am originally from Hawaii.

- Ooh. - Yes.

But I live here in LA.

How long have you been doing drag, Sasha?

- 20 years now. - Ooh, wow.

Since I was, like, seven.

So Kerri was your daughter.

Kerri is my daughter.

Uh, it was a... It was a easy birth.

I'm a former Miss Continental.

I am Kerri Colby's mother.

I'm here to represent for the trans girls

and for the House of Colby, baby.

I love you, daughter, but I can't have Kerri

be the most famous Colby.

I'm so excited.

- Like, we watch this on TV. - Right.

Like, that's the door.

Like, I just did the runway entrance!

It's on, baby. Let's go.

I can't believe I'm on season 15!

Season 15!

- Ya-hoo! - Yeah!

Oh, my God, I'm so excited.

Yes, welcome.

- Ah! - Shut up. I'm done.

- Shut up. - Oh, my God!

- Is that Ornacia? - It's Ornacia!

Good to see you again, sis.

If you don't know who Ornacia is, baby,

you might need to rewind and go back to season six

when Miss Vivacious walked up in the building

and Miss Ornacia was dangling on top of her head, honey.

Mother has arrived!

Wait, is this real?

Why is this person being Vivacious as Ornacia?

This is your moment. Have it.

Can you get it?

We got a super fan, baby.

Let us see.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

That is Ariana Grande!

Mother has arrived.

- Take it off. - Who is it?

Oh, my God!

You're kidding me.

- Oh, my God! - That is Ariana Grande...

I can't do this. I need to leave.

Who is, like, literally my hero.

Oh, my God!

I'm wearing a full face of your makeup right now.

No, you're not. Are you?

I'm gagging.

Like, Ariana!

- I... my hands.

This is, like, the biggest moment

of my life to this point.

I literally can't believe it.

Oh, my God.

It's such an honor to meet you guys.

This is so exciting.

I think drag is the most infectious

and joyous art form that there is.

Thank you guys for bringing so much joy

to the lives of the "Drag Race" fans and to everyone.

- And thank you for giving us "Break Free".

To hear these, like, words of validation

from this mega superstar is honestly the greatest thing

in the world to hear, especially in a time like this,

where there are so many people trying

to take down your representation.

This is kind of fierce.

I think the last time I was here,

I had just come from shooting

the "Bang Bang" video the night before.

And I was so drained.

It was just such an overwhelming time in my life.

And I felt like I wasn't really fully present for it.

Remember to take care of yourself and be present,

because it's just such an amazing moment.

And all of your lives are changing for good forever.

- For good. - For...

But it's the truth.

It came out of my mouth, and I was like,

oh, no, it's a lyric, but hold on.

But they really are.

Ariana Grande, you have no idea

how much you have helped me through

and how much you inspire me on a daily basis.

I never could have asked

for a better first day in the Werk Room.

Hello, hello, hello.

Ariana, darling, back, back, back again.

- Come on down. - Mama!

- Ariana. - Hello.

- Hi. - We are so excited you're here.

Yeah, how excited are you?

Ru, my pussy's on fire.

Well, you know there's an ointment for that.

I ran out.

Oh.

My queens,

welcome to "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 15.

Now, how do you like it so far?

Good, because the stunts

and the shenanigans are just getting started.

Oh, God.

And in the end, one of you will be crowned

America's Next Drag Superstar

and walk away with a one-year supply

of Anastasia Beverly Hills cosmetics

plus a cash prize...

of $200,000 powered by Cash App.

$200,000.

No way.

That is a life-changing amount of money...

Yes!

That I am about to win.

Run that back!

Bitch, we're about to be rich.

I'm about to invest in some crypto.

Now, whose pussy's on fire?

Mine!

My queens, for your very first mini challenge,

we are paying tribute to "Drag Race's"

first ever photo shoot.

I have watched this show from day one.

And I know that those iconic season one girls

got sprayed in the face with a garden hose.

Oh, yes, mama.

Did you watch the show, Tamar?

The doors you have opened.

Ariana, can you stay?

I'm so sorry, I have to go.

I have to return this to Vivacious.

Ohh.

But I have a favor to ask.

- What's that? - Would it be OK

if I came back tomorrow?

Yes!

Breaking news, our extra special guest judge

this week is Ariana Grande.

Love it!

Ru, I cannot wait to see how this turns out.

You need some of those little opera glasses.

- Oh, I would love some. - Yeah.

Ru, I cannot wait to see how this turns out.

That is the dumbest thing I've ever...

Oh, and one more thing before I go.

Good luck.

And don't...

Fuck it up.

Ooh, I'm gonna tell the Disneys.

Let's go, season 15.

Jeez Louise, here we go, honey.

Here's the ride. Buckle up.

Strap in, honey.

Well, look who's here,

Irene Dubois.

I see four beautiful men

in little, teeny-tiny bathing suits,

a gorgeous car, and RuPaul

ready to watch me make a goddamn fool of myself.

Say hello to world-renowned photographer, Albert Sanchez.

- Hello. - Hi, Albert.

Nice to meet you.

Albert's going to take your picture today,

and we're going to recreate the first challenge

we did on "Drag Race," uh, 300 years ago.

As you noticed, the Pit Crew have thick hoses,

and they aren't afraid to use them.

You need to serve body and face,

come hell or high water.

Oh, Pit Crew, assume the position.

And let's go. Let's get... let's wash this car.

And do not let water hit Mom Ru,

or you gonna see a gremlin queen.

- Help me. - My car is filthy.

You're a dirty girl.

I am sopping wet,

looking like a drowned, harassed rat.

But I am used to performing in basements in Seattle

while I pour weird substances

like baked beans all over myself.

This is a cakewalk.

Scrub, scrub, scrub till the water's brown!

They're not mad at you.

They're mad at the dirt.

- Hi. - Luxx Noir London,

hose the house down.

Do you watch "The Price is Right"?

Yes. Yes.

Pit Crew, can you step in and give this girl a hand?

You ready to get wet?

Fucking water.

I hate getting wet.

The feeling of being in wet drag.

You have on all of this padding.

I'm wearing my human hair and, like...

Ew, my God.

Like, I literally could vomit right now.

Hose like it's 1968.

But I am a supermodel,

so pour as much water on me as you want.

I'll just have to still give it to you.

Oh, my goodness!

Oh, she's got no Luxx left to give, honey.

Aura Mayari.

Oh, yeah. Ooh, she's ready to get wet.

Do I get to touch them?

Unh!

I'm a horny bitch, oh, my God.

Sorry, Mom.

Scrub that dirty shoulder, Bruno!

Which one is Bruno?

The one who's basically fucking you right now.

- Oh, shit. - Hi, Bruno.

That hand-wash is going to cost you extra, OK?

Marcia Marcia Marcia.

Let me guess, you're here for the pork chops and applesauce?

Mm-hmm!

Now, Marcia, are you wearing a turtleneck?

I sure am.

Well, that's not the only turtleneck in this shot.

All right, well, I think we got it.

- I think we got it, yeah. - Yeah.

I think we got it, yeah.

I think I did pretty bad.

Um...

Whew.

My nose is healed.

Was it fun, Marcia?

I love how they were like, oh, did you enjoy meeting your,

like, life icon this morning?

I hope so, because we're drowning you.

Work.

In a sweater too.

- Oh, my... - You look so different.

Ah!

Getting to meet these girls out of drag,

I can't wait for people to see how cute I am.

Irene still kind of looks like a swamp witch.

I don't care. That's one's funny.

She looks like a swamp witch.

That's her thing. She's, like,

alien spooky, you know?

Swamp witch realness, that's her.

Anetra is here, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm so excited to do the iconic

first mini challenge ever on "RuPaul's Drag Race."

It's weird to think that I'm about to be

part of such a big legacy.

This is unreal!

Yes, arch that back.

Yeah, soaking wet.

I'm trying to pose, give cunt,

give Naomi Campbell.

But the hose is just, like, spraying my face.

What's wrong, Anetra?

Ah!

Oh, we just lost an eyelash.

Work with it. Work with it.

Bitch, RuPaul's Waterboarding Race.

From the house of making it wet.

All right, Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.

Bitch, I got on my good shit...

Think of it as Miami humidity.

My ostrich feather, my rhinestones,

like, my quaffed hair!

You ever heard of WAP?

Yes!

But you know what?

It's a competition.

I got to do what I got to do.

That can be replaced.

It's money on the line.

Ooh, this kitty is wet.

Yes.

She is soaking wet.

Poppy!

Say, "I need a freak."

I need a freak.

Say it in Spanish.

Uh, I need a el freako.

I hope those are watercolors.

This is the high colonic portion of our program.

They're spraying me in my butthole, my other hole.

Every hole that I have, there's water in it.

Are you a dirty girl?

I haven't washed these tights in three years.

Hose everywhere!

Sasha Colby, Kerri's mother.

You look like her sister.

I want to show them that mother is a supermodel.

Soaking wet.

Oh!

But I am not having my Naomi Campbell moment.

I am not having my Campbell's soup moment right now, OK?

I'm going to do my Ariel.

All right, I think we got it.

At the end,

like most of my interactions with boys with hoses,

I am thoroughly confused and utterly in the dark.

Ah!

Hey!

Oh, my God, it's freezing.

I know.

Sasha, are your nipples hard as rocks?

Censors.

The gang's all here for the party of the year.

I'm so ready to get out of this.

Ooh, my nipples look so small.

Marcia gets out of drag, and I'm like,

did you get out of drag?

I can... I can't tell.

I would have never guessed

that you'd look like that out of drag.

- Me? - Shut up!

- Yeah. - She looks exactly the same.

She took off her demi wispy lash,

and she goes, all right, done.

OK, free Junior and Senior.

Wow. This is so weird.

- Come on, muscle queen. - Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Bitch, Aura is a man.

How is she all that woman and all that man together?

I think I'm trade of the season for sure.

That is so fucking embarrassing.

But it's the truth.

What's up?

OK, please take this fucking wig off.

I can't.

- Do it. - I refuse.

Oh, my God.

- I refuse. - I paid for every inch,

all 40 of them.

We got to get a measuring tape.

Get a ruler, girl!

It's not looking like 40 inches to me.

I think I've got a pretty good eye for size,

if you know what I mean.

How do you guys feel about us as a group?

And do you think that we're a strong group?

And do you think that we'll be a stronger group

than the other people coming in?

- It's a little early to tell. - Right.

I mean, you got me here.

That part!

Clearly, this is a split premiere.

I'm not super worried about another batch of queens though.

They are going to have a tough time standing up to group one.

I feel like what intimidates people,

it's, like, an energy thing.

And I didn't get, like, a negative energy from anybody.

- I don't know. - When I walked in,

I did get a little bit of a... A vibe from Irene, but...

- What kind of vibe? - It was...

- It was a little hot. - Just a little catty-cunty.

- But like... - I will say...

I will say, I wish that you guys were throwing it back.

Ooh.

I think other people see me as a bitch,

but I'm always trying to be funny.

I think that being cunty is hilarious,

and most drag queens do.

Y'all decent?

Ooh, y'all clean up real good.

Racers, the winner of today's mini challenge is...

Irene Dubois.

Come on, yes.

Yeah!

Condragulations.

You've won a cash prize of $2,500.

Fierce.

I am surprised because I didn't clock her

as being someone who is very photogenic.

But we're on "Drag Race."

Anything is possible.

Ladykins, now is your chance to put the T

in charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.

For your first maxi challenge,

you'll be headlining a once-in-a-lifetime

we're calling "One Night Only."

It's time to wow the world with your solo star power.

But first, you'll need to work together

on the big opening number.

And in a moment you'll head over to the rehearsal studio

to come up with your own choreography.

Oh.

I know how to choreograph.

It is my time to show everybody my skills.

I'm definitely confident with what I'm going to bring.

I'm nervous, y'all.

Oh, I ain't like no, you know,

choreographed dance and all that.

And I'm not trying to let these girls know that I'm weak.

I ain't no weak link.

Racers, start your engines.

And may the best drag queen win.

Yes!

I'm feeling confident that I can do better

than some of the people in the room.

I thought you were going to get it.

You're such a little model.

I did too, but you know,

Naomi was rejected once.

You win some, you lose some.

But I do plan on winning most.

So it's time to figure out our choreography

for our big performance of "One Night Only."

Yes, rehearsal.

You guys ready to dance?

This is about showcasing why we are all on season 15.

And we are tasked with figuring this all out by ourselves.

So is anyone used to choreographing?

I like choreographing stuff.

I choreograph, but...

So do I.

Maybe some people do think they're choreographers,

but are they good?

That's the question.

I will take the reins.

- That's hot. - Do it.

I have an extensive history

in choreographing and dancing,

so I'm thinking that I can really

spearhead this for the group.

- I have some ideas already. - Yeah.

But I want to see what you have prepared.

I know you already, like, kind of, like...

I thought about it.

How about you do yours...

And then we'll piggyback, yeah.

And then we'll elaborate from there.

You know, Mother has had to deal

with a lot of children in her life.

And what I've learned is you let the kids play,

and then you clean them up later.

So we've all listened to the song at this point.

It doesn't feel, like, super dancey.

It feels very like...

- Right. - Like, "Chorus Line."

Yeah, entering in couples could be really cute.

How do... we're... we all into it?

Sure.

Oop!

Sure, Jan. Sure, Jan.

OK, well I do have an idea.

- Can I show it really quick? - Yeah, sure.

So for the first part, like,

And then that duh-duh-duh is like...

If you're doing this, you're duh-duh-duh.

Oh, that is cute.

The people that are up here will go,

duh-duh-duh.

It kind of just turns

into Aura taking over the whole thing.

Can I put you guys in formation?

Great.

And we just kind of

don't listen to Marcia.

But that's, you know... sure.

So in my brain, it would be like...

- Right, yeah. - Two of us going, two of us.

No, but I also... I also have that idea for, like,

walking in different groups.

So Marcia has a lot of ideas,

but I want to make sure that the better choreography...

It's just, this is our first performance.

I want this to look sickening as hell.

I just think that there's not really

a clear entrance though.

Yeah, I feel like we could still incorporate

Marcia's idea 'cause we still need to enter.

Sure, we can figure that out.

You can let us know, Marcia, if you wa...

If you have any idea for the entrance.

I think she just said it.

What we have already done does not correlate

- with what I wanted to do... - Right.

Because to me, the beginning of the song,

it sounds like... The whisper's like,

"Tonight, tonight, it's happening tonight"

I'm sorry, I would love to not double choreograph.

Great. Of course, of course, of course.

They keep going back and forth.

I'm like, girls, I don't give a fuck what we do.

Let's just do something.

So who wants to give up control, for real?

Like, who wants to say, let's just finish

this eight and go on?

We can't even get past the first 8.

In Marcia and Aura's head,

I think it's their moment to shine.

- Last time. - Sorry, guys.

Let's do it again. Duh-duh, duh-duh.

See, you guys? That looks so beautiful.

So how do we get here?

It is about to be a very, very long night.

While the queens continue rehearsing,

little do they know,

plans and schemes are happening

back in the Werk Room.

Clean up this mess!

And get ready for round two of this premiere.

Is this the meeting for the Itty-bitty EsTittie Committee?

'Cause they're here!

What's popping, daddy? My name is Salina EsTitties,

and I'm repping from Los Angeles.

I'm a hustling diva, a West Hollywood girl.

Yeah, she be twirling all through the streets,

pounding pussy to pavement.

Ooh!

EsTitties está aquí, honey.

Yes.

You like these titties?

Oh, hot Cheeto. Mmm.

EsTitties' aesthetic is ghetto superstar.

She is cholita, campy, and cunt, baby.

She is a chola from the hood, you know what I mean?

She's a little dee-ta-dee, but it's OK.

Everybody loves her.

Hold on.

Don't tell me I'm the only one

who got invited to Ru's quinceañera, bitch?

I'm the first one!

I don't have to fuck with no bitches.

I guess it's a fiesta of one.

I do the bar scenes in drag,

but I also do a lot of TV/film/commercial work.

She's a campy comedy girl.

Baby, she's all of it wrapped with a bow.

OK? A quinceañera bow.

I'm going to get comfortable.

Let me get comfortable.

Let me get comfortable.

I could get used to this!

Is this thing on?

I'm Amethyst, resident meme queen

and pop star of Connecticut.

My aesthetic is very influenced by the Y2K era.

I am known as a comedy queen.

I think my biggest achievement in drag

would be going viral on TikTok.

My most viral video has close to 8 million views.

It is so cool to be the first viral TikTok queen

to grace the stage of "RuPaul's Drag Race."

- Hi, Vanilla Spice. - Hi, baby!

- What's up, girl? - Hi, sis.

- What's your name? - Amethyst.

- Where are you from? - Connecticut.

First Connecticut queen.

- Really? - Yeah.

I like to think of myself

as one of the top names in Connecticut.

But I think I'm still labeled as a newbie

or a newcomer or a baby queen.

I like the undies.

These are not undies, girl.

- These are called boxers. - It's the same thing.

Oh, is that what they say in Connecticut?

We've been here. We're here.

Season 15, baby!

It's my quinceañera, bitch.

Period.

Oh.

Make room for your MVP,

spelled J-A-X.

My name is Jax, and I'm the Simone Biles of drag.

I consider myself extremely competitive.

I have been a competitive athlete my entire life.

I was a Junior Olympic diver,

a gymnast, a competitive cheerleader.

I am so excited to be here on "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 15.

I have worked so hard in every aspect of this craft.

And I'm ready to show the world what I got.

What's up...

- Hi, Mommy! - Ah!

Girl, you're giving me "Bring It On."

- You're giving me. - I know.

Gabrielle Union, Willow Smith,

let's fucking go.

Jax is banji.

She is athletic.

She's also extremely preppy because,

although she's a primarily New York City queen,

she's here to remind you that she is

from Connecticut at the end of the day.

You never gave me your name.

Uh, Amethyst.

Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

You do not have crystals on you.

- No. - Actually, I do have

- crystals on me. - No.

My mom gave this to me before I left.

- No way. - I have... I'm not spiritual

or anything, but she was just like,

- if you have this on you... - Is she?

No, she's just, you know, white girl from Connecticut.

And she's just like, here's a quartz.

- I'm from Connecticut. - I'm adopted,

and I'm from Connecticut.

- You're adopted? - Yeah.

- Half Puerto Rican, half Black. - Ah, yeah, OK.

You know what that means.

- She packing. - She packing.

She may be tiny, but she mighty, OK?

Ooh.

Oh, Loosey.

You've got some slaying to do.

Oh!

My name's Loosey LaDuca.

I'm a construction worker by day

and a drag queen at night.

I go through a lot of duct tape.

I'm known for my live singing, my quick wit,

and my man hands.

But you know what, the boys like them, so.

- I'm so happy. - You know her?

- Connecticut queen. - Oh, she's a bit sporty.

She's skinny too, word.

Immediately, I hear all the queens

talking about my body.

And I'm just thinking, yeah, girls, the body is here.

- Hey, girls. - Hi, Mommy.

Oh, bitch.

Oh, my God.

Loosey is one of the best hosts

that we have in Connecticut.

We go way back.

I can't believe you're fucking here.

I can't believe you're here!

Done drag for five seconds

and you're already here.

I see Amethyst.

And I see her outfit,

and I thought, OK, I've seen it before.

But it's nice to see it in the Werk Room.

So how long have you been doing drag?

2 and 1/2 years.

- OK, word. - Yeah.

And what about you, Miss Loosey?

I've done drag for 12 years.

- Wow. - Yeah, Mommy.

Wait until you see

what I am going to bring to this competition.

I can't wait to show the world what I have to offer.

- Oh, oh. - Wow.

Don't be fooled.

The camera adds ten pounds.

My name is Mistress Isabelle Brooks,

and I am the heavyweight champ from Houston, Texas.

That's a big girl!

A big girl, where?

My drag style is big,

beautiful, and glamorous.

I'm not afraid to experiment with different silhouettes.

I'm going to look sexy and make you eat it, bitch.

Look at those titties.

Look at those heels.

- What heels? - Exactly.

OK, biscuit heel.

I see you.

That's the tiniest little shoe I've ever seen in my life.

Oh.

OK, bitches, it's game time.

It's all fun and games till I come through.

Let me at them, bitch. I'm ready.

- Hi, Mommy. - Now, uh-uh,

I heard y'all bitches talk about my little kitten heels.

Y'all know these fat bitches been

breaking their ankle every season,

so I had to make sure I was safe with the one inch.

- Period. - Period.

It's nice to meet you.

- What's your name? - Mistress.

- Mistress, ooh. - Mistress Isabelle Brooks.

It's a long Texas name.

Can I just call you Mistress?

- Mistress is fine. - OK.

What is this, honey?

It's called drag, bitch.

You're giving me very prison,

Selena Quintanilla.

Check the wrist tat, bitch.

OK, well, I'll be Yolanda this season.

OK, baby?

She called herself Yolanda.

Who wants to be Yolanda?

I'm sizing everyone up who I'ma have to whoop first.

- I feel that from you. - Yeah.

Next queen, please, next queen.

- I'm ready to meet the next. - OK.

I'm living because she just embodies that down south drag.

Drag is here.

You wanted drag, baby?

Here it is.

Oh.

Mirror, mirror on the wall,

who's the fiercest queen of them all?

It's me.

I'm Robin Fierce,

Connecticut's grand diva, darling.

I'm like if Diahann Carroll, Mariah Carey,

and Beyoncé had a baby.

Hi, hello, that's me.

She's hot, bitch.

Damn.

Now we got RuPaul's Drag Race Connecticut, apparently.

Oh, is she from Connecticut too?

- Yes! - Shut up!

So who's working in Connecticut right now then?

No one.

Bitch!

- No, bitch, get over here. - Oh, my God.

Robin Fierce is a light that shines very brightly,

and everybody comes like a moth to a flame, my darling.

It's the confidence, the regal-ness,

just that bad bitchery.

It's safe to say I know Robin

better than anybody else in this competition.

So yeah, we have a little past.

If Amethyst would like to tell y'all,

I will let her do that.

People at home, don't try to ship us.

I'm not having it.

I will block you.

Robin, tell me about your drag,

because this is cunty, baby.

I think that is my drag, just cunty, baby.

- OK. - Yeah.

Robin's lace was reflecting

from the duct tape under the cap.

Prep is everything in drag.

She should have wore a wig cap.

Vinyl duct tape with all the lighting was a no-no, baby.

I cannot believe you're wearing a nail.

I've never seen a nail on this girl.

Lies, Liza Minnelli...

- She can't even look at me. - She wears nails.

Don't believe this lying-ass ho.

Go home, Loosey.

No, I don't plan on going home the whole time.

We'll see.

- What? - Are there two of them?

- There's two of them. - Are they twins?

Well, this doesn't look like the toy store.

Sweetie, that was my line.

Whatever.

What in the Maria-Kate and Ashley's going on?

- I'm Sugar. - I'm Spice.

- And we're the dolls... - That came to life.

You might know us as a duo on TikTok.

But here were each sold separately.

And we're competing against each other.

So bye, bitch, get out of my frame.

- They're from TikTok land. - I know them.

I've seen Sugar and Spice on TikTok.

These girls are coming for my gig.

They look like Romy and Michele on an acid trip.

- The first twins walking in on "Drag Race."

It's about to be the gag of the century.

We're just ready to shake these girlies up

because that's what we do best.

Ooh. Sss.

When the twins walk in, I gag.

I think they're very annoying because it's like mm, baby.

And I'm just like...

So first week's going to be a double elimination.

- Ooh! - OK.

- Hi. - Oh, my God.

So me and Spice started doing drag on social media.

We have accumulated 7 million followers on TikTok.

Did any of y'all recognize us from TikTok?

I did, yeah.

- No. - No.

I do know them, but I'm not going to give them

the satisfaction that I do.

Never heard of you, baby.

Girls, I'm stuck in my childhood forever.

So like, that's why we're life-size dolls.

Like... hi, I'm Spice.

I'm a doll.

- I'm plastic. - Oh, my God.

That's scary. It's like Chucky, Annabelle.

I'll be the Chucky of drag.

And I'm, like, the plastic,

like, fun, like, Barbie,

you know, just the prettier one.

Well, we always say, she's kind of like Regina George,

and I'm Janis Ian, you know.

So is this what you do on TikTok?

Y'all, like, rehearse lines, and then you just

say all your lines all the time?

Honestly, our names are Sugar and Spice,

but we should really just be called Canned and Bit.

Yeah, we have so many bits, and they're so canned.

Oh, we love a good bit.

- It's a lot! - It's a lot! It's a lot!

I'm swiping. I don't want to see it anymore.

Keep going. Next, next, next.

Where are you guys from?

We're from Long Island, New York.

Oh.

But we just moved to LA a couple months ago, so...

- You did? - Yes.

- Yeah. - Where do you perform?

- Um... - In our room.

Ohh.

I thought so. I never seen you hos.

Did you guys, like, do, like, more performance shows

when you were back home, or have you guys been more, like...

We have done some performances.

We have, like, one or two performances,

and they were a nightmare.

So y'all don't perform and, like, do actual drag?

Yeah, it's a drag competition, baby.

I'm used to other drag queens not really seeing me

as a quote, unquote, "drag queen,"

but I definitely want to change that misconception.

I'm dying to be a part of a drag community,

and I'm hoping here I'll be able to make friends,

and we can just go home and bake a big drag queen pie,

and we can all live happily ever after.

Wait, so is this everyone?

I feel like there's only half of us here so far.

Guys, do you think that they're going to do,

like, the split premiere thing?

What if the other girls already came,

and we're, like, the second batch?

No, but there would have been stuff in here though.

I was literally just thinking that.

Yeah, no, it looks too clean.

It's season 15.

Something has to be up.

- Ornacia? - Oh, there's another one.

What is going on?

Is Vivacious coming back to compete?

I'm so confused.

What's happening?

She's back.

Milk it, girl, milk it.

Reveal, reveal, reveal.

No. Wait, no.

Mother has arrived.

Vivacious, in the flesh.

Are we doing an early out season?

No, really, Mother has arrived.

Look over there.

Hello, hello, hello.

I am gagged to finally see RuPaul in person.

Oh, my God!

It's happening.

It's happening.

I'm feeling the feels.

- Welcome to "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 15.

Now, in honor of Vivacious, Ornacia,

and all the Queens who have come before you,

I'm counting on each of you to take us to new heights

of drag excellence.

Are you up for the challenge?

- Hell, yeah. - Yeah, baby.

And Vivacious,

I hear you're going to hang out with us today.

Lies.

Liza Minnelli. Lies.

Well, I hate to see you leave,

but I love to watch you walk away.

Vivacious, show these children how it is done.

Anything for you, Mother.

Work it, girl.

Ow, ow, ow.

Mother has departed.

Now, for your very first mini challenge,

we're going to go back to our roots.

All you have to do is strike a pose

and blow me away.

Oh, God.

Good luck,

and don't fuck it up.

I love taking photos.

So I'm like, oh, thank God, something I can do.

I just have to stand there and look pretty, you know.

Let's start the season off with a bang.

These are my favorite outfits the Pit Crew has ever worn.

Yeah.

Trend alert.

Salina EsTitties.

Hi!

- Hello. - Hi there, Ru.

Inspired by the season two premiere photo shoot,

get ready to be blown away.

Uh-oh!

We are trading cannons for crotch rockets.

But speaking of crotch rockets,

say hello to the Pit Crew.

Hi, daddy.

Assume the position, straddle that hog.

Not that hog, the other one, yeah.

Baby, it feels so amazing that I get

to be a part of the legacy.

OK, we are here.

Season 15, the quinceañera, baby.

Let's go.

The important thing is to connect with the camera

no matter what happens.

You want to make love to it.

- Oh. - We are looking

for a fabulous shot.

- All right. - Make room for Bruno.

Fan setting one.

There we go. There we go.

- OK. - Faster, pussycat.

Kill, kill.

Hairography, honey.

I feel like a model.

I'm just living in the wind,

and I hear RuPaul go...

Connect with the camera.

And I'm like, am I not connecting with the camera?

Because I'm connecting with Bruno, bitch.

I am living.

Bruno, look out for those trees.

- Oh! - OK, we can do this.

Maple le... oh!

OK. Ohh.

Full tilt boogie.

You ready, Bruno?

I don't fuck around!

We're going to beat this traffic!

Aah!

I will see you in traffic school.

Hey, sis, it's Amethyst.

Put on your seat belt!

Here comes Oktoberfest.

Hey, remember, the camera's over here.

It's really hard to concentrate,

especially when leaves are being thrown at you.

And I am quite literally eating them.

Oh, my goodness.

Turn it up to 11.

Hold on tight.

Yes.

Watch out for that bus.

All right, Jax, I think you're approaching the Rose Parade.

Yeah, whip that hair, yeah.

I am so excited to be paying homage

to season two of "Drag Race."

Yeah, ass to ass.

I'm thinking I did pretty good in this challenge.

However, I could have been feeling myself

but looking like a thumb.

Who's driving this thing?

Oh, look out for those pedestrians.

Paging Mistress Isabelle Brooks.

It looks like you're heading up on a flock of seagulls.

Oh, dear.

Are you a bird lady?

My eyelash is blowing, my wig is shifting,

and, bitch, all three of my chins are jiggling.

But I'm like, bitch, I'm gonna still shut it down.

Yes, mama.

Houston, we don't have a problem.

Loosey LaDuca,

have you ever ridden a motorcycle before?

Um, I've ridden a biker before.

OK, well, that counts.

I am ready to blow Miss RuPaul away.

- You could grab tighter. - Hold on tight.

- Ooh! - Ooh.

And, look, they brought my biggest fan.

Oh, my goodness, Bryce,

you're holding on for dear life.

Oh, you just flew through a flock of birds.

Sell me the fantasy.

Whoo!

Where did all these birds come from?

Where's Tippi Hedren when you need her?

Up next, we've got the Robin Fierce.

Yes, burn rubber.

You look like Melba Moore up in here.

I know how to take pictures.

I know I look good.

Like, it's a shoo-in.

Why those feathers gotta be white?

Feathers, they decided to throw feathers at me

the day that I wore gloss.

Oh, shoot.

Oh, why they gotta be black?

And they all are sticking to my lips right now.

Oh, girl, you've got a beard now.

You've got to take those off.

Oh, now they red.

Oh, shoot.

This must be a sign of the apocalypse.

I gotta tell you, wig glue has really improved

since season two.

- Whew. - That was definitely something.

So what did y'all think about the twins

when they first walked in?

I thought it was kind of sickening that two people were

walking in at the same time.

I gagged, but then I wasn't gagging

when I saw who it was.

And we saw that on your face the whole time.

Well, you know, don't play in my profession, bitch.

Drag is my bread and butter, so.

They're very sweet.

If I had to tell her to glue down her wig

for the first challenge, it's a chop for me.

Yeah.

Right before the photo shoot,

my eyes scrolled to the top of her head,

and her lace is waving to me.

I'll help her, though.

I'm not going to talk shit, but you know.

You're not going to talk shit as you're talking shit.

You're talking shit right now.

But I helped her, though.

I fixed her wig for her, and I helped her.

With Sugar, she had no idea what wig glue is,

but I'm not really surprised,

considering I'm the first real drag queen she's met.

It's a sisterhood regardless.

No, you have to earn my sisterhood.

I don't just call everyone my sister.

It's cool to be, like, internet queens.

- Yeah. - But maybe they'll show us

that they're sickening.

Seeing is believing with me.

When I see it, I'll believe it.

All right, let's pour some Sugar on it.

Nice.

Other arms.

Yeah, try that hairography on them.

Oh, yeah.

Honey, that motorcycle's driving itself.

Oh, no, it's snow.

Don't spit.

Just swallow it.

Ooh.

Are you having a seizure?

OK.

Oh, my goodness.

I'm trying to stick to my modeling rules

of suck in the gut, stick out the butt,

and tighten that tuck.

This look is based on the first ever

Bratz doll I had.

Sugar and Spice, our names,

literally come from these dolls.

I heard Bryce has dandruff, but this is outrageous.

Well, that was a wild ride.

Is the wig still on?

Well, we've had Sugar.

Let's have a little bit of Spice.

Hello.

I'm a little scared because I'm like,

I didn't really pin this wig in that well.

But a drag princess always comes prepared.

I got my little shower cap.

- Oh, interesting. - Yeah.

You know, Spice always has to be a little different.

And you can't go wrong with a shower cap.

Do we like? Are we living?

So you want to do hairography with a shower cap?

- Of course. - That's an interesting choice.

But you know, I feel like the shower cap,

it's cute, it adds a little drama,

a little variety.

You can imagine how gorgeous

your hair would look with the fan blowing, right?

But you want to wear a shower cap.

- Absolutely. - And that's your choice,

so let's do it.

I've been ready for this my whole life.

Like, this is the moment I have been waiting for.

It's kind of like my mini

"America's Next Top Model" moment.

Work that shower cap, girl.

Oh, is it springtime already?

Oh, it's a change of seasons.

Don't you love the fall?

I love the fall.

Oh, my goodness.

So you certainly are Sugar's sister.

Climate change is a problem.

I believe in science.

Whose idea was this?

Hello.

- Oh. - Y'all like my new look?

What happened to your wig, girl?

Oh, her wig flew.

Spice is coming back in after her photo shoot

looking like Donald fucking Duck with that hat on.

- Oh, my God. - Bitch, you look crazy.

Y'all look so different out of drag. Whoa.

I can't recognize half of these girls.

I'm like, who is this tattooed man in the corner?

I'm like, oh, that's Loosey.

The tattoos, I did not expect that

- from your blonde persona. - I know, I know.

Yeah, it's, like, super different, night and day.

Now I'm seeing the construction worker.

Yeah.

Oh, my God, wow, you look so...

What?

Because I think you were, like, blonde.

Wow. Is that all your natural hair too?

Mm-hmm.

Mistress is the biggest transformation.

She goes from this glamorous Houston drag queen

to the owner of a pizzeria.

That was so mean.

Listen, before y'all got here, I was, like,

I'm curious to see what the twins are going to bring

because a lot of people audition

year after year after year.

So for y'all to come through, I feel like,

bitch, y'all better impress.

- So I mean... - Right, I'm excited.

Yeah, I'm excited to see what y'all bring to the table.

It's going to be interesting for sure, yeah.

Mistress is definitely eyeing me and Sugar down.

She's trying to get into the gig,

and she's collecting her data.

Like, it's very different for me to be around

people this young, even though I'm young.

No, really, like, in Houston,

most of our established queens are much older.

We work with drag legends on the regular shows.

Like, we work with, like, Tommie Ross,

Chevelle Brooks, like, big names.

So I mean, I respect the older queens.

I love my drag legends, especially in Texas.

Wait, if everyone had to describe themselves

like, in one adjective, what would it be?

- Because for me... - Bitch, what is this,

icebreakers in seventh grade?

No, because you said I was goofy.

And the other day, like, I was talking to myself,

you know, as we do.

And I was like, oh, my God, I'm goofy.

I've realized, like, I just... Like, words come out,

and then after, I kind of, like, put them together.

You know, like, I don't really know what...

It's just, like, after the fact,

and I'm like, OK, that makes a sentence.

Sugar and Spice are a lot.

We are like, damn, they are the same in and out of drag.

It just won't stop. Won't it?

I feel like everyone's either, like,

a bike ride person or a porch person.

- Like, you're either one. - Not a porch person.

I'm both.

When me and Sugar start

getting into our own little world.

And I'm like, OK, oh, we're talking over each other.

It's like word vomit.

But, like, we would always go on bike rides.

We had magical bike rides.

Magical.

I think some of the girls

still feel annoyed by Sugar and Spice.

We had just came out, and I was like,

we're getting all of our dolls.

But I'm starting to warm up to them.

Sugar and Spice are a fucking hoot.

I think we move on from that one.

OK.

Don't leave us to our own devices.

Y'all are getting distracted

because y'all are making no sense at all.

I know.

Well, look what the wind blew in.

- Ooh, I'm not running, bitch. - I'm gonna tiptoe.

Ladykins, the winner of today's mini challenge is...

Loosey LaDuca.

It's me!

I won.

I won the very first challenge.

You've won a cash prize of $2,500.

Ooh, OK.

I want to win everything.

I want to be the first one in history

to win every mini challenge and every maxi challenge.

My queens, now it's time to get things rolling.

For your very first maxi challenge,

you'll be performing in a talent extravaganza

we're calling "One Night Only."

In addition to showcasing your individual talents,

you need to choreograph a group number

for your big, juicy opening.

And in a moment, you'll head to the rehearsal studio

to get started.

Racers, start your engines,

and may the best drag queen win.

I'm very excited because I finally get to see

what the girls are going to bring.

- Whoo! - Ah!

Yay, away.

Now you have to put your money where your mouth is

and do what you do and just show the world and impress.

Meanwhile, back with our unsuspecting queens

on the rehearsal stage,

y'all ready for some premiere drama, mama?

I think we should all have a moment like...

Cute.

The fact that we have to do choreography

for our first challenge is a little bit nerve-racking,

but I'm starting to feel like we're actually

going to impress the judges with this stuff.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Oh!

Oh, my God.

- Oh, my God. - It's RuPaul.

Why is RuPaul here?

Hi, ladykins.

Hi.

Ru, not now, don't.

Just let me get the choreography first

before you start throwing spins and turns on me.

Do you know what would make your big opening

even more irresistible?

Mmm, take it from me.

I know my way around some big openings.

Eight more dancers.

Isn't that a great idea?

Send in the clowns, Chaz.

- OK. - Queens of season 15,

meet the queens of season 15.

Oh, my God.

I did not expect this to happen right now.

I was fully focused on this rehearsal,

and there they are.

Oh, not this.

I'm not impressed.

It's like a showdown.

I'm scared.

That's right.

All of you are vying for the title

of America's Next Drag Superstar,

and the competition kicks off tomorrow

at the biggest talent show in "Drag Race" herstory,

16 individual performances.

But before this week is over,

one of you will be going home,

for reals.

- Uh-uh. - Wow.

Ah.

This isn't like last season

where no one went home for weeks.

Like, we are cutting to the point right away.

Like, someone is getting the chop.

I can already tell there are some divas over there

who are here to play.

How am I going to stand out amongst all these girls?

We can't even choreograph this number with eight people.

16?

You ever hear the old joke

of 16 drag queens walk into a bar?

I haven't either, but I don't think it ends very well.

- Next time on "RuPaul's Drag Race"...

With a total of 16 girls,

the competition just doubled.

Let the talent extravaganza begin.

This challenge was a total game changer.

Who the fuck does that?

Somebody is going home tonight.

Not me though.
