HEADER BY YOSEF PHELAN

Now that Jimbo’s had a comfortable five minutes as our reigning Drag Race Hall of Famer, it’s time to turn our attention to the forthcoming ninth season of All Stars, which – if rumours are to be believed (and they’re usually bang on) – has already finished filming.

Here, we round up all the potential legends who might be sashaying back into the werkroom next year – and of course, it’s completely speculative and based on their activity (or lack thereof) on social media and cancelled gigs, etc. None of this is officially confirmed.

Check out the eight rumoured cast members below, and let us know which queen deserves to join Chad Michaels, Alaska, Trixie Mattel, Monét X Change, Trinity the Tuck – deep breath, more sickening star power incoming – Shea Couleé, Kylie Sonique Love, Jinkx Monsoon and Jimbo in the Hall of Fame.

Angeria Paris VanMichaels (Season 14)

Challenge wins: 2
Original placement: 3rd/4th/5th

“The Southern belle from ATL” is (rumoured to be) back (hallelujah!). Angeria Paris VanMichaels stormed the first half of season 14 with five consecutive ‘high’ placements, two of which were wins. Known for her classic country charm and old school pageantry, Angeria made it to Drag Race’s first-ever final with five queens, tying with Bosco and Daya Betty for joint third/fourth/fifth place. Angeria made her comeback this year on All Stars 8 as a lip-sync assassin, where she lost to Kandy Muse.

Gottmik (Season 13)

Challenge wins: 2
Original placement: 3rd/4th

Gottmik memorably ‘crashed the cis-tem’ in season 13 as the franchise’s first openly trans male competitor, ultimately winning two of Drag Race’s most iconic challenges: the Snatch Game, where she won rave reviews for her impersonation of Paris Hilton; and the Ball. One of Drag Race’s most followed queens, with over 1.3 million on Instagram, Gottmik is notable for her partnership with season seven winner Violet Chachki. The fashionistas appeared in the music video for Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ historic smasher ‘Unholy’ – going on to perform with them at the Grammy Awards – and co-hosted Fashion Photo RuView for All Stars 7. Gottmik also ventured into the world of publishing, co-authoring ‘The T Guide’ with close friend and fellow trans icon Gigi Gorgeous.
