The

Additionally, the premiere
event will unveil a court of cut-throat Queens each competing to snatch
the crown and strut away with a $100,000 cash prize and the coveted
title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar.” Along the way, they’ll face an
unpredictable competition
and deliver watercooler moments as these talented ladies of drag join
the fabulous 100 Queens who fought for the crown before them.

Season 9 Premiers Tonight But for Now Meet the Queens for “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 9

Meet Aja, Alexis Michelle, Charlie Hides, Eureka, Farrah Moan, Jaymes
Mansfield, Kimora Blac, Nina Bo’Nina Brown, Peppermint, Sasha Velour,
Shea Couleé, Trinity Taylor, and Valentina.

Aja

This Brooklyn queen follows in the footsteps of such tight lip-syncers as Coco Montrese (season five) and Bob the Drag Queen (season eight). Stare in awe as she tears into Busta Rhymes’ verse on “Look at Me Now.”

image

Alexis Michelle

A theater queen from New York, Alexis brings a contemporary-to-classic
balance to her work. Previous theater queens like season five champion
Jinkx Monsoon were more old-school.

image

Charlie Hides

Giving a little British flair to the proceedings, Charlie is a U.K.
queen. Can she do what Australian Courtney Act couldn’t and become a
foreign America’s next drag superstar?

image

Eureka O’Hara

Drag Race’s first big girl in a couple of seasons (since season eight didn’t feature one), Tennessee queen Eureka brands herself “the elephant queen.”

image

Farrah Moan

Farrah is a Vegas queen, following in the footsteps of last season’s
pseudo-villain and Britney Spears impersonator Derrick Barry. Perhaps
she’ll perform as Mariah Carey in this season’s Snatch Game?

image

Jaymes Mansfield

Milwaukee’s own Jaymes Mansfield is an active YouTuber — an important quality for success post-Drag Race. Just ask Alaska (All Stars season two winner), Alyssa Edwards (season five), Katya and Trixie Mattel (both season seven). She’s also clearly got a deep knowledge of drag herstory, something Ru loves to see in her girls.

image

Kimora Blac

Kimora is another Vegas queen with a strong, breast-first aesthetic. She’s the Instagram star of the bunch.

image

Nina Bo’nina Brown

Atlanta queen Nina Bo’nina Brown is this year’s makeup queen. Her looks range from freaky to fabulous.

image

Peppermint

Like Sonique (season two), Kenya Michaels (season four) and Monica Beverly Hillz (season five), Peppermint is a trans
queen. Unlike most who have come before her, who came out either during
or after the show, she was out before her season filmed. Will the
series — which has had trouble with trans women in the past — fittingly acknowledge her status?

image

Sasha Velour

Yet another New York queen! Sasha’s got looks for days, reminiscent of
season eight’s Acid Betty (also a New Yorker). Will those looks take her
far?

image

Shea Coulee

Shea is from Chicago, not New York, and thus we appreciate her. We also appreciate her stunning looks.

image

Trinity Taylor

Trinity marks one of few queens who shares a name with another former
contestant on the show (along with season one and five’s Jade Sotomayor
and Jade Jolie, and season three and nine’s Alexis Mateo and Alexis
Michelle). Interestingly, she once beat Alyssa Edwards in a pageant. She is also an Orlando queen, thus talk of the Pulse nightclub shooting is almost inevitable.

image

Valentina

We already met her,
but for those who haven’t: Valentina is the only Los Angeles queen of
the bunch, and as such will be playing on home turf this season.
Notably, Valentina is a very cute boy out of drag, which is a great way to amass fans of the show. (Just ask season six’s Milk or season seven’s Pearl.)
