Brooke Lynn Hytes is an incredibly talented drag queen who acts as a host and judge on Canada’s Drag Race. It’s a spinoff to the popular RuPaul’s Drag Race, but RuPaul himself doesn’t appear as the usual face at the center of it. Brooke Lynn owns hosting and judging, but she isn’t alone in doing so. How much power does she actually have when it comes to telling a queen to “sashay away?”

Before Canada’s Drag Race ever aired, Brooke Lynn starred on RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11. She demonstrated charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent in spades, ultimately making it to the finale. Brooke Lynn impressed RuPaul and television audiences worldwide with her polished looks, tremendous lip-syncing talents, and top-notch makeup. However, she lost the final lip sync against Yvie Oddly, who took home the crown.

For this season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars,” RuPaul Charles brought back eight crowned queens to compete again for the chance to be named “Queen of All Queens,” earn a second crown, and take home a cash prize of 200,000. Over the last 11 weeks we’ve reacclimatized ourselves to the charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talents of Shea Couleé, Jaida Essence Hall, Yvie Oddly, Trinity the Tuck, Monét X Change, Jinkx Monsoon, Raja, and The Vivienne and were introduced to new twists: the Platinum Plunger and Legendary Legend Stars.

The all-winners season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” kicked off May 20 on Paramount+ with the twist of all twists: instead of host RuPaul Charles eliminating queens each week, she would instead reward the challenge champs with Legendary Legend Stars. At the end of the season, the four contestants with the most stars (announced below) will compete in the Lip Sync LALAPaRUza Smackdown For The Crown. That means the weekly star recipients are officially the ones to beat. So who’s out front to win so far? Read on for your “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” Legendary Legend Stars update (after Episode 11).
The eight former winners who returned to the competition this year were Raja (Season 3), Jinkx Monsoon (Season 5), Yvie Oddly (Season 11), Jaida Essence Hall (Season 12), Monét X Change (All Stars 4), Trinity the Tuck (All Stars 4), Shea Couleé (All Stars 5) and The Vivienne (UK 1).

With just one week to go before the “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” grand finale streams July 29 on Paramount Plus, fans are busy speculating who might be joining Jinkx Monsoon in the four-person Lip Sync LALAPaRUza. Jinkx secured her spot last week when she won her fourth Legendary Legend Star, more than any other contestant. The two queens closest to her are Jaida Essence Hall and Trinity the Tuck, both of whom have three stars. Next in line with two stars apiece are Yvie Oddly, Raja, The Vivienne and Monet X Change, and then Shea Coulee trails with a single star.
Last week, Gold Derby asked fans to vote for who they wanted to see compete against Jinkx in the final episode, and Raja, Trinity the Tuck and The Vivienne came out on top. Hare are the complete poll results:

Each week on “The Pit Stop,” Bob the Drag Queen runs down the crowning achievements of the all winners on the newest episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars” alongside a guest host. Following Friday’s seventh episode, Bob was joined by season 14 champion Willow Pill to get to the bottom of Monét X Change‘s belief that Willow was a “master strategist.” Watch the full episode above via the official RuPaul’s Drag Race channel on YouTube.
Ahead of their recap and review, Willow admitted to Bob that while filming she didn’t have the intent of strategizing, but watching the show back she sees how people can think that. She even described a moment during filming where the other girls asked her if she knew the lyrics to a lip sync song and she said “no” despite having performed it herself before. Then, as a member of Yvie Oddly‘s drag family,...

Willow Pill made history this year when she won season 14 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, becoming the first disabled or chronically ill person (she’s diagnosed with the rare genetic disorder cystinosis) to take home the crown, as well as the first trans non-All Stars winner, having come out during her run on the show.
Fans were immediately captivated by the queen’s quirky sense of humor and outside-the-box runway looks, but it’s been her openness and vulnerability that carried her to the finish line (and the top prize of 150,000) on a season packed with formidable competition. As Emmys conversations erupt into full swing, Drag Race seems poised to continue its winning streak in a slew of reality categories, but Willow Pill may this year earn the show recognition down a new avenue: Her original song from the series finale, “I Hate People,...

Last week’s top all stars, Raja and Jinkx Monsoon, were each given two Legendary Legend Stars — one to keep for themselves, and another to give a fellow queen. Then came the less exciting twist: we’d have to wait until this week to find out who was getting them.

On the fifth episode of season 11 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Ariel Versace was eliminated. Did you think she was the right choice to go this week after her performance in the Lip Sync For Your Life or should Shuga Caina have been sent packing instead? Vote in our poll below and be sure to sound off in the comments section with your thoughts on episode 5, “Monster Ball,” which aired March 28 on VH1.
Ariel and Shuga ended up in the bottom two after failing to impress RuPaul Charles, guest judges Cara Delevingne and Elvira, and regular panellists Ross Mathews and Michelle Visage throughout the fifth series of competitions. That meant they were pitted against each other in the Lsfyl. Each had to perform to the Whitney Houston classic “I’m Your Baby Tonight.”

RuPaul’s Drag Race welcomed Elvira, Mistress of the Dark on Thursday for a chilling challenge that separated the ghouls from the girls.
The drama began immediately this week, with Yvie Oddly basically asking Ra’Jah O’Hara — fresh off her lip sync victory against Mercedes Iman Diamond — why she hasn’t been stepping it up in the challenges. Ra’Jah brought up a valid point, that Yvie was literally wearing trash, but Yvie brushed off the hate, telling Ra’Jah that she only got defensive because she knew the truth. Perhaps this lit a fire under Miss O’Hara,...

In the all-new fifth episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” on March 28, the 11 queens still standing competed clad in costumes inspired by monster movies. Scream queen Elvira and model Cara Delevingne were the guest judges at this pageant. Which contestant came out on top and was the winner of this challenge on episode 5 of season 11? And were Gold Derby’s predictions correct that Ra’Jah O’Hara would be eliminated this week?
In episode 4, Ra’Jah came perilously close to being bounced but Mercedes Iman Diamond went home instead. Both had to strut their stuff to to the James Brown classic “Living in America.” Mercedes from Minneapolis counted some missteps among her moves. In the end, RuPaul Charles opted to throw a lifeline to Dallas darling Ra’Jah who, at age 33, is one of the oldest queens still in the competition.

On the fourth episode of season 11 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Mercedes Iman Diamond was eliminated. Did you think she was the right choice to go this week after her performance in the Lip Sync For Your Life or should Ra’Jah O’Hara have been sent packing? Vote in our poll below and be sure to sound off in the comments section with your thoughts on episode 4, “Trump: The Rusical,” which aired March 21 on VH1.
Mercedes and Ra’Jah ended up in the bottom two after failing to impress RuPaul Charles, guest judges Tiffany Pollard and Joel McHale, and regular panellists Ross Mathews and Michelle Visage throughout the fourth series of competitions. That meant they were pitted against each other in the Lsfyl. Each had to perform to the James Brown classic “Living in America.”

Fresh off last week’s embarrassing six-way lip sync battle, the ladies of RuPaul’s Drag Race decided on Thursday that they were really going to start trying from now on. No more tucking around!
Unfortunately, not everyone was able to keep that promise, as seen in this week’s disastrous mini challenge Why You Maddow Tho? The assignment was simple: dress up like MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow (cheap jacket and all!) and read a series of breaking news reports from a teleprompter. Yet “simple” proved too much for some queens, like poor Silky Nutmeg Ganache, who struggled with the...

Thursday’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race tested the remaining queens’ ability to pull focus from their fellow sisters. (Or should I say cyst-ers?)
First up, Brooke Lynn Heights and Silky Nutmeg Ganache won this week’s mini challenge — Ru’s beloved celebrity photobomb-off — by getting naked with Tom Brady and dropping a hot turd on the Trumps, which doesn’t even crack the top 10 if we’re talking about the most shameless things a queen has done on this show.
Next came the maxi challenge, a double feature of instant classics: Good God, Girl, Get Out (cast by...

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” returned to VH1 on February 28 with the debut of season 11. In the all-new episode on March 7, the remaining 14 queens were tasked with taking part in spoofs of two Oscar-winning movies: “Black Panther” and “Get Out.” Which contestant came out on top as the winner of the challenge? And were Gold Derby’s predictions correct that Kahanna Montrese would be eliminated this week?
In last week’s premiere, she came perilously close to being bounced but Soju went home instead. Both had to strut their stuff to “Best of Both Worlds,” a hit for guest judge Miley Cyrus‘s TV alter-ego, Hannah Montana. Kahanna, a 25-year-old showgirl from the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, showed off her deft dancing. Soju, a 27 year-old from La La Land, was determined to prove that her talent extended beyond her YouTube blogging. However, she could not keep up with Kahanna,...
