The cast for the wildly-anticipated first season of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs the World has finally been unveiled. UK vs the World, which premieres 1 February on BBC Three, will see the queens of Drag Race UK compete against some of the most sickening performers from other global editions of the franchise, including the original US version, Canada’s Drag Race, Drag Race Holland and Drag Race Thailand.
The series was filmed in London and will feature Drag Race UK panellists RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Graham Norton and Alan Carr.
Jade Thirlwall, who makes up one third of Little Mix and won the 2021 GAY TIMES Honour for Allyship, will be guest judging – which means we should be in store for a lip-sync to one of the band’s songs.
Jonathan Bailey will also be making an appearance as he will be “swapping the stage and screen for the #DragRaceUK runway.” Spicing up the judging panel will be Mel C, a former member of the legendary Spice Girls, which is also the best selling girl group of all time.
