Ru Paul arrives in NZ to film Drag Race Down Under

Quote:

Start your engines ladies… RuPaul has landed in Auckland, New Zealand to start 14 days of quarantine at a local hotel before the beginning of filming for Drag Race Australia.

Local media outlet express is reporting that the World’s Most Famous Drag Queen checked into a plush quarantine hotel this morning in preparation for filming the ‘Down Under’ edition of the Drag Race franchise.

As previously reported, in late December the official Drag Race Australia Instagram account posted a message stating that filming would begin in New Zealand’s biggest city around January 29th with competitors and the host needing to arrive at least two weeks earlier to quarantine due to the country’s Covid-19 border controls.

Sources suggest a number of Australian drag talents have already flown in to compete on the show which will include ten Aussies and two Kiwis.

It is expected the series will be a boom for local drag queens which could include potential cast members such as Sydney’s Vanity Faire, Felicia Foxx, Coco Jumbo and Etc Etc, Brisbane’s Scarlett Fever and Sellma Soul, Newcastle’s Jojo Zaho and Melbourne’s Karen from Finance, Sabrina and Art Simone.

Why is she doing all these versions and then leaving Canada in the dust sksksk

re the article in the OP, I really can't see Art Simone taking part, considering she already has her own WOW Presents Plus series (which would mean she'd go into the competition with the Drag Race UK winner's prize just... casually there on her CV)

It's odd, considering she crosses the tAtlantic for DRUK and has gone across the world for AUS but hopping over the border was a no no :laugh:

Karen from Finance!! Best drag name according to Trixie & Katya.
I cannot wait, this is going to be good!

Michelle is also on the panel and this is set to air before the end of the year

So its both an Australia and NZ season, interesting.

The poor little NZ queens will be destroyed by the mean Australians, I can already see it.

haha this aged well.

I knew the Australians would be the nasty ones and the NZ queens will be poor little rabbits in the headlights.

Well done NZ for staying strong.
