It’s almost here! RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under is headed to streaming platform Stan on May 1, and judging by the show’s new trailer, the Australasian queens are set to deliver the drama
Earlier this month, the streaming platform released the trailer for the much-awaited show.
And based on the outrageous preview, the Australian and New Zealand queens are set to deliver plenty of drama and laughs.
In one scene from the trailer, RuPaul tells Coco Jumbo that her costume is ‘rotten’, leaving the other queens shrieking with laughter.
‘If there’s anything I love it’s putting on a f**king show!’ Coco later adds.
The eight-part series will be the first time there has been a local version of the hit Drag Race franchise here in Australia.

RuPaul himself will be hosting, with drag icon Michelle Visage and Australian comedian Rhys Nicholson by his side on the main judging panel.
Kylie’s inclusion will be warmly welcomed by fans after she sparked speculation she could be preparing for a judging role on RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under in February.
At the time, hopes were raised after the beauty retweeted a post from RuPaul, 60, saying he was a big fan of her new album Disco, calling it a ‘masterpiece’.
