'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' Season 5 Premiere: Meet The Cast
It's that time! Time to sashay into Season 5 of "RuPaul's Drag Race All-Stars."
That's right, RuPaul, along with some of the franchise's favorite queens, are back and ready to compete for the "All-Stars" crown. The show, which was initially scheduled to air on Showtime, will return to VH1 due to the various scheduling and programming adjustments that resulted from COVID-19.
The winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars" Season 5 will snag a cool $100,000 cash prize to accompany their crown, as well as a spot in the "Drag Race Hall of Fame." Per usual, the contestants will have to "act, sing, dance, sew and lip-sync for their legacy." However, this season, the show teases a new aspect that promises to leave viewers jaw-dropped.
"For All-Stars 5, we’ve come up with a new twist that is so twisted it’s guaranteed to twist your twisted minds," four-time Emmy® Award-winning host and executive producer RuPaul said.
So without further ado, here are the 10 queens returning to the runway.
Alexis Mateo (Season 3, All-Stars 1)

Alexis Mateo was first introduced to fans during Season 3 where she made it all the way to the top three before being eliminated. Her second appearance comes during "All-Stars" 1 when she competed in a team but failed to snag the crown. Will the third time be the charm?

Jujubee (Season 2, All-Stars 1)

Jujubee is an OG when it comes to "RuPaul's Drag Race." She first appeared on Season 2 of the series before reemerging on "All-Stars" Season 1. She's yet to secure a top spot but perhaps Season 5 will be her time to shine.
Mariah Paris Balenciaga (Season 3)

She's a woman of many names -- Mariah, aka Mariah Paris Balenciaga, aka Mariah Successful. After failing to bring her A-game in Season 3, she was eliminated but now she's back and ready to leave it all on the runway.
Mayhem Miller (Season 10)
Twitter: @TheOnlyMayhem, Instagram: @TheOnlyMayhem
Mayhem Miller is back and ready to sprinkle a little bit of drama on the road to victory. Miller started off strong but fizzled out early on Season 10. Has she got the endurance to make it all the way to the Hall of Fame this time?
Miz Cracker (Season 10)

"Okay, it’s time for Cracker!" This self-proclaimed Jewish Barbie is a Season 10 veteran.
Ongina (Season 1)

Ongina hasn't graced the "Drag Race" runway since Season 1. Nonetheless, this beauty is dusting off her heels and ready to strut right her way to the top.
Shea Couleé (Season 9)

Shea came so close to the Season 9 crown that she could practically lick it but in a shocking twist things didn't turn out in her favor. After coming so close to victory, will "All-Stars" 5 be her chance at claiming the thrown?
"RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars" will premiere on Friday, June 5th at 8 p.m. ET on VH1.
