[KEY9481]

I was not at all interested in this but Michelle and Vanessa in the same jury!? Sign me in.

^ Just saw that on Twitter. They're really riding this behemoth 'til the wheels fall off.

I'll probably still watch.

Wait, wasn’t that supposed to be the title of the Winners season?

Haha, same!

The judging panel is great

No, that‘s UK VS. The World or something like that…

[Jason2379]

I thought that was International All Stars?

We’ve officially gotten to the stage where there’s just too much Drag Race

[KEY9481]

Premieres on Dec 2nd.

Oh, oops

Yeah, you‘re right. It‘s just All Stars: Superstars

[BehindBreakaway]

Nah I'm not feeling drag race fatigue just yet

[Tansike]

Let's hope this will be better than the acting challenges on the show

My thoughts exactly.

Season 7 has five queens on the list, followed by Season 5, 6, 9 and 11 with four queens each, then Season 4, 8 and 10 with three queens each. Season 1 is the only regular season with no queen having 1+ million followers.

Special shoutout to Bimini Bon-Boulash, who currently has 939,612 followers and is about to become the first queen from another franchise to hit one million followers soon.

Plus I would mention RuPaul with 4,347,592 followers and Michelle Visage with 2,014,745 followers too. Don't know about RuPaul but especially Michelle also got tons of followers in the last 2-3 years.

that's quite interesting, only 3 winners from the main season in the top ten. ok, here's another challenge Tansike how about the most followed queen from each season listed?

[BehindBreakaway]

I second that. In fact I'd bump you up a whole spot on my fav member list Tansike

Yeah, there are overall a lot of not winners on this list or above the winners of their season.

Ah, don‘t challenge me like that xD I‘m too curious for these myself so I can‘t resist. But that‘s an interesting one, I actually made a short least followed winners list when Icesis won Canada S2. But I‘ll do a full one this week

[UnapologeticKenny]

That top 10

Happy Bob is in the top 15 and I hope Jinkx join her soon

Spoiler!

with her rumored casting on the first All Winners season

Shangela only being #15 doesn’t sit right with me.

Runner ups who have more followers than their winner:

Gotmik (Symone)
Gigi Goode (Jaida Essence Hall)
Brooke Lynn Hytes (Yvie Oddly)
Kim Chi (Bob)
Manila Luzon (Raja)
BONUS: Trinity The Tuck (Monet X Change)

Let me put it another way, the only black winner to have more followers than their runner up is Shea Coulee from AS5. Oh, and BeBe Zahara Benet.

I know what your implying but what I see is a pretty diverse bunch! 2 trans queen, two Asian queens, one Canadian queen, and one who should have won solo

Saddened but not surprised.

Same with the whole most followed queens (thanks Tansike for that)

Trixie at #1 is...disappointing, considering the well of talent across all the seasons, but such is life.
