What is DragDen Philippines?

Drag Den Philippines is slated to be one of the most fab, most exciting competition series streaming on Filipinos’ screens. The show will bring together queen-testants and allow them to showcase their talents as drag queens and artists of the Philippines! DragDen Philippines will be hosted by international drag icon Manila Luzon.

Who is Manila Luzon?

Manila Luzon first rose to fame when she joined RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 3 and finished as the season’s runner-up. She also joined the first and fourth seasons of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars. Post-Drag Race, Manila has continued to blossom in her career and remains a staunch supporter of the LGBTQ communities around the world.

When Manila first teased her participation in the show, she said, “I’ve been able to bring a lot of awareness to the Philippines through my drag, and now, I want to use the fame that I’ve gotten to kind of bring it back to the Philippines and let the Filipinos all realize that there is a whole world of drag, and this art form is in its purest form.” Brace yourselves; the queen is parading in star-spangled and high-up on her kalesa!

All drag personalities are welcomed!

It’s an all-inclusive competition, so whatever your gender is, if you’re a drag personality, you are definitely welcome to audition.

Other qualifications to join the show are simple enough. You must be:

• a Filipino citizen;
• 18 years old and above; and
• currently residing in the Philippines.

Partnership with Tiktok

Drag Den Philippines has officially partnered with Tiktok as its main social media platform for the competition’s audition. Drag queens are encouraged to upload their creative transformation videos on the platform.
