Better late than never, right? Here’s everything you need to know about the Drag Den Philippines.

Drag, depth, gorgeous!

The show features eight queens fighting for the crown to become the first-ever Filipino Drag Supreme.

Based on the trailer, you can expect to see a variety of drag aesthetics and artistry in a way only Pinoys know how to pull off. You know they didn’t come to play, dahling — they’re here to conquer and slay!

All hail our Drag Lord

Will Drag Den Philippines have lip-sync performances? Are there guest judges? What’s the format of the show? There are so many questions begging for answers, but only one could give us clarity: our Drag Lord, Manila Luzon. 

The RuPaul’s Drag Race alum is spearheading the show, and given her credentials — she’s the perfect choice to host Drag Den Philippines. She’s a TV actor, recording artist, fashion maven, and drag superstar! What more can you ask for? With her impressive resume, she has it all, and the queens can learn a lot from her experiences.
