‘RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race’ Season 2 Preview
After a successful first season, “RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race” is back with a new “star-studded cast of secret celebrities that will be revealed as the competition unfolds,” according ot the VH1 press release.
It continues:
Filmed in front of a live studio audience, nine celebrities from all walks of life have agreed to leave their famous identities behind as they fully embrace the miracle of drag. It will be kept secret who each contestant is until they are asked to sashay away, allowing viewers to focus on their charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.
Each week, the celebrities will undergo complete drag transformations and compete in the ultimate lip sync showdown based on a new category until one of them is crowned “America’s Next Celeb Drag Superstar” and awarded $100,000 for their favorite charity.
The contestants will be mentored by “Queen Supremes” Brooke Lynn Heights, Jujubee, and Monét X Change. Additional “Drag Race” legends set to make special appearances this season include Eureka, Gottmik, Katya, Morgan McMichaels, Silky Nutmeg Ganache, and Violet Chachki. RuPaul returns as host alongside resident judges Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, and Ross Mathews.
Season one of “RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race” featured the following celebrities: Phoebe Robinson, Madison Beer, Hayley Kiyoko, Matt Iseman, Dustin Milligan, Alex Newell, Tami Roman, Loni Love, Vanessa Williams, Nico Tortorella, Jermaine Fowler and Jordan Connor.
After her win in season one, Hayley Kiyoko talked to Billboard about being a part of the show.
“It’s honestly hard to explain [what it was like] without experiencing it,” she said. “Because of this, I’m able to own all of my masculinity and femininity so much more, and I’m able to walk with my head held higher. … I really went through an emotional journey and process through it all. It felt like a win for myself. In the beginning of entering the work room, you want to win because you’re not only winning money for the charity of your choice — in my case, Planned Parenthood — but everyone loves to be a winner. You forget about that all, honestly, because you’re really wanting to win for yourself, and prove to yourself that this part of yourself that you haven’t always embraced is valuable.”
She added, “I mean, the opportunity came to me, and I jumped at it! It sounded amazing, I love the community around ‘Drag Race.’ But it also sounded really terrifying, because it’s not an easy thing to do! It’s not just, ‘Oh, you put some cool makeup on!’ No, it is truly a full transformation.”
“RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race” season two premieres Friday, August 12 at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific times on VH1.
