Drag Race vs The World switches between the host countries of Canada and the UK, giving queens from the global franchise the chance to compete again – this time for $100,000 and the title of ‘Queen of the Mothertucking World.’

Although, this year, it’s ‘Queen of the Motherpucking World’, as Canada is taking back the hosting duties, meaning RuPaul will be judging alongside resident judges Brooke Lynn Hytes (Drag Race US series 11), Brad Goreski (Fashion Police) and Traci Melchor (etalk).

The eight-part documentary series will give viewers an insight into the hard graft behind the glitz and glamour of the Drag Race UK tour.

The series begins only a few days after The Vivienne won the UK’s first Drag Race and was crowned Drag Race Superstar, with all the queens working together to put on big, showstopping group performances and captivating audiences with their own individual talents, from circus skills, to power ballads.

Seven celebrities will kick off the proceedings at a karaoke bar, belting out their renditions in both solo performances and group battles.

In a provocative twist, their fellow competitors will judge them, with a focus on passion and stage presence over voice.

The list of those on the mic includes TV personalities Scarlett Moffat and Roman Kemp, Ibiza Weekender’s David Potts, comedians Joel Dommett, Judi Love, Melvin Odoom and Luke Kempner, and Love Island’s Samira Mighty.
