The cast of ‘Drag Race UK vs. The World” was announced and we have some thoughts
RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World premieres Feb. 1, to be broadcast on BBC Three and on the WOW Presents Plus streaming network.UK vs The World is an all-star competition, but with an international flair: contestants are from Drag Race shows from around the world, will are brought together to compete on the Drag Race UK stage in London.
The nine contestants will battle it out for a grand prize of…nothing, because the show is part of BBC and they have to follow laws in the UK against giving cash prizes for shows like this.
But the winner does get bragging rights.Since the original RuPaul’s Drag Race premiered on LogoTV back in 2009, shot in an old warehouse in Los Angeles with a production budget of approximately a dollar, the show has turned into a wildly successful franchise that spread to Thailand, and several countries in Europe, then Drag Race Canada popped up and it is really good, and there was a rough season in New Zealand called Drag Race Down Under but let’s not talk about that show, and now there is a South American drag TV competition called The Switch in Chile.Drag Race is everywhere, especially for anyone who pays for a VPN to watch it (perhaps illegally but whatever) online.The UK vs The World cast can be categorized by their respective home countries.
