The Drag Race family continues to expand and World of Wonder has greenlit Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale, a new show based on the Vs. the World format.
Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale will see fan-favorite queens from previous seasons of the Philippines franchise take on Asian queens from across the global franchise in a battle for the crown.
“This new version of Drag Race shines a spotlight on Asian drag as never before, celebrating its culture, its history and creativity in a unique battle royale,” Co-Founders of World of Wonder, Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, said.
Slaysian Royale builds on Drag Race Philippines, which, across its three seasons, has made a name for itself for its unique take on fan-favorite challenges and tropes. Most recently, reigning season three winner Maxie won the title of the Philippines’ Drag Superstar, joining the Winner’s Circle alongside previously crowned queens Precious Paula Nicole and Captivating Katkat.
