RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 9 premiere date confirmed in heroic first teaser
RuPaul’s Drag Race may have only just crowned a winner of season 16, but the hype machine for All Stars 9 has already started gearing up with a super-powered teaser.
Warning: sickening spoilers ahead.
The ninth instalment of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars has received a premiere date and a brief teaser, which aired during the finale of season 16 on Friday (19 April).
There’s no rest for the fierce, as a teaser from the official Drag Race X (Twitter) account has confirmed that All Star 9 will be premiering in just under a month, on 17 May.
The post features a heroic theme, complete with a globe and a RuPaul power pose. The caption for the All Stars 9 teaser reads: “Saving the world, one heel at a time!”
“The time has come,” RuPaul says in a voiceover, “for drag queens to save the world.”
The All Stars 9 teaser comes after US talk show host Sherri Shepherd revealed that the cast would be appearing on her show, Sherri, as part of their press run on 9 May.
The post hit the timeline just before the crown was handed over to season 16’s winner, in a fierce finale that saw Sapphira Cristál, Nymphia Wind and Plane Jane battled it out.
