On August 21st, Drag Race fans finally got the news we've been waiting for... RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars is back, bitches! Season 3 premieres on its new home, VH1, in early 2018. All Stars will be followed by the 10th season of RuPaul's Drag Race, and RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked. Untucked will be returning to television for the first time since its producers decided it would only be available on YouTube.
Despite the news being so fresh, Reddit has been swarming with fan theories for months. Some super-fans even believe they have cracked the code on which queens will be returning for the third season of All Stars. I read over the supposed cast list myself and, I've got to say... I'm not totally thrilled.
While some of the supposed cast caught my eye, I was disappointed to see others overlooked yet again. I know we can't all be happy all the time, but I still wanted to share who I would have liked to see grace our screens for this season of All Stars.
10.) Chi Chi Devayne
Apparently, she does stay ready because Miss Devayne is actually on the supposed cast list for All Stars 3. Chi Chi had a lot to prove when she first joined the race on Season 8, and she impressed a lot of us by learning how to keep up with the big dogs so fast. I can only imagine what it could (or will?) be like now that she's had even more time and experience to work with.
9.) Milk
I don't consume dairy, but I'll make an exception for this tall glass of Milk. Thankfully for me, Milk is another one of the queens on the leaked list. I'll probably end up rooting for her and/or Chi Chi throughout this season. One thing that drew me to this queen from the beginning was the way she mixes masculine and feminine in drag. I feel as though we haven't seen enough mainstream queens try to blur those lines, and I am all here for more!
8.) Cynthia Lee Fontaine
I know, I know. She has already competed twice, but I am always ready to see that cucu again! This queen stole my heart, as well as the heart of plenty of other fans. During her first shot at the crown in season eight, I was so thrilled to see her cancer-free and returning for a second chance in season nine. Who knows? They say third time's a charm! #JusticeForCucu
7.) Kim Chi
6.) Pearl
She may not have had something on her face, but what Pearl did bring to her season was an unshakable attitude. Coupled with her outstanding eye for beauty and the growth she experienced while competing in the race the first time, Pearl truly left a legacy behind. She definitely deserved her spot in the top three, and would be a killer queen to bring back for another round!
5.) MAX
I've got to say it. Sorry, Michelle, but I love Max's gray hair. Hell, I love everything about Max's looks. I'm all for her dark, vintage, glamour aesthetic and I would love to see what else she could whip up if given another opportunity on the runway. Plus, she almost did Miranda Sings for the Snatch Game her season, and I would do just about anything to see that happen.
4.) Joslyn Fox
I don't know about you, but miss Joslyn Fox is certainly my cup of soup. What's not to love? She's cute. She's charming. She's down-to-earth. She's talented. She's got a way with words (and a great ass). I'd love to see her come back again as the "black horse" of this season. Womp, womp!
3.) Laganja Estranja
Who doesn't love a little Ganja?! It's hard to deny that this queen has the entertainment factor on her side. You just can't forget such iconic moments as her sickening death drop upon entrance, or when she felt "very attacked!" during that episode of Untucked. Although Miss Estranja may not have been the strongest competitor during her season, it's clear how much she has grown since then. She's got an eye for talent and creativity and has a loyal fanbase behind her to cheer her on. (Side Note: If you haven't seen this video of her showing up at a fan's house for a surprise performance, stop what you're doing and watch it now.) I think if given a second chance this far down the line, Ganja would easily smoke out the competition.
2.) Adore Delano
I know in her recent interview with Billboard, Delano said she's not quite ready to return to the RPDR screen...but a person can dream, can't they?! Adore is one of the rare quadruple threats this show has had. She can sing, move, act, and put together a rockin' look (even without a sewing machine). She made it to the top three her season and has continued to have significant success since then. The odds would certainly be in her favor if she did decide to return for AS3. But, oh well...I'll just settle for playing her new album "Whatever" on repeat instead. for AS3. But, oh well...I'll just settle for playing her new album "Whatever" on repeat instead.
1.) Ivy Winters
For anyone that knows me personally, my first choice shouldn't have been any surprise. I am absolutely obsessed with Miss Ivy Winters. But who isn't?! Not only can she rock a runway in her own flawless designs (Remember the butterfly outfit? Criminally underrated.) but she juggles swords, eats fire, and walks on stilts in her live shows! Plus, that voice?! It gives me chills! I think Ivy's talent wasn't showcased nearly enough during her season, and she could easily be the next queen to snatch the crown.
I want to know what the rest of you Squirrel Friends think! Are you going gaga over the supposed cast list? Or do you think a RuPaulogy is in order?
