👑 Hall of Fame 👑
👑 Season 1: Charmed
Chris Halliwell is the first ever winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. With three wins and one bottom, his run is iconic in its own right. His victory was seen as a slight upset, as he bested his fierce competitor and own mother, Piper Halliwell in the stunning, first ever finale.
"I never thought I could do this. I never thought I was good enough. But I never gave up. And now, here I am. The first ever drag queen champion of the world. This crown belongs to every queen who has ever doubted themselves, who has ever felt like they weren't good enough. It belongs to every queen who has ever been told they couldn't do something, and then proved the haters wrong. This crown belongs to all of us. Thank you, RuPaul, for believing in me. Thank you to all the amazing queens who have supported me and inspired me throughout this journey. And thank you to the fans, who have cheered me on every step of the way. I love you all. And I will spend the rest of my life making you all proud."Â
👑 Season 2: Twin Peaks
Laura Palmer is the second winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Laura's run, featuring three wins and three bottoms, was somewhat of a rollercoaster. Laura's win was once considered to be one of the biggest upsets in RPFDR history, beating iconic runner-up Sherriff Harry Truman. Ultimately, her stunning eight lipsync wins and compelling storyline pushed her over the edge, allowing her to snatch the crown.
"Thank you so much for believing in me and supporting me throughout this journey. It has been such a wild ride, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to be here today. I couldn't have done it without the love and support of my fellow queens, and I am so grateful to have made it to the end with all of you.Â
To everyone at home, thank you for watching and supporting me. This crown is for all of you, because without you, none of this would be possible. I am forever grateful and I promise to represent all of you with pride and grace. Thank you, RuPaul, for this incredible experience. I am honored to be your winner!"
👑 Season 3: Mushroom Kingdom
Rosalina is the third winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. With three wins and never placing below safe, she is the first true powerhouse to win RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. While she was the favorite to win against runner-up Princess Peach, season 3's top two could have gone either way.
"My dearest subjects, I may have come to this competition as the princess of the stars, but today, I leave as your queen. This crown may sit atop my head, but it belongs to all of us. We are all queens in our own right, and we all have the power to shine as bright as the stars above."
👑 Season 4: Season of the Witch
Bayonetta is the fourth winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Bayonetta was a late bloomer in the competition, but after winning three challenges in the second half of the season, she entered the finale just as powerful as ever. Head to head with finalist Zelda Spellman and runner-up Regina Mills, Bayonetta showed that demons aren't the only thing she slays.
"To all the young witches and drag queens out there who are watching, know that you can achieve anything you set your mind to. Never let anyone dim your light, and always be true to yourself."
👑 Season 5: Super Smash Bros.
Palutena is the fifth winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Palutena spent the first half of this season in the top. By the end, she finished with four wins and only one bottom placement, cementing herself as a true icon. To no one's surprise, she snatched the crown, but runner-up Samus Aran put up a real fight
"Thank you, thank you so much. This has been the most amazing experience of my life, and I am so honored and humbled to be standing here as the winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race Season 5.Â
To all the other queens out there, I just want to say that you are all winners in your own right. We have all grown and learned so much from each other, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to share this journey with you all."
🌟 All Stars Season 1
Audrey Horne is the first winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race All Stars. True to the roots of Twin Peaks, Audrey's All Stars run reminds us that nothing is truly as it seems. After being eliminated first, Audrey returned to the competition as part of a secret season-long twist. While statistically Audrey lagged behind runners-up Samus Aran and Grunty, Audrey displayed C.U.N. and T. right when it truly mattered. Winning both challenges after returning, and slaying the finale like no other, Ru had no choice but to crown our second Twin Peaks queen.
"Well, well, well, I guess miracles do happen. First they find Laura Palmer's killer, and now they crown me the first ever All Star Queen of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race! I may have been the underdog, but I clawed my way back from the brink of elimination, and now look where I am!Â
But let's be real here, this crown isn't just for me. It's for all the little girls out there who were told they couldn't do it, who were told they weren't good enough. I hope I can be an inspiration to them, to show them that anything is possible if you just believe in yourself and work your ass off.Â
And of course, I have to give a shoutout to my girl Dale Cooper. You know he's somewhere out there, watching over me and guiding me on this journey."
So thank you, thank you to everyone who has believed in me, who has supported me, who has loved me. This crown is not just mine, it's ours, and I will wear it with pride and honor. Because I am an All Star Queen, and nothing can ever take that away from me."
👑 Season 6: Hyrule Heroes vs Villains
Princess Zelda is the sixth winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Zelda competed in the first ever double season of RPFDR, competing against heroes and villains from her universe. She swept up five wins by the end of the season, only falling into the bottom once. While she appeared to have statistically tied runner-up Cia, there was no denying that Zelda left her mark on the competition unlike any competitor before her.
"In the land of Hyrule, it's always been about the journey, not the destination. We have ridden through the fields of trials, climbed the Death Mountain of challenges, and swam through the Lake Hylia of our own fears. To everyone who feels lost in the Lost Woods of life, remember this: It's dangerous to go alone. Find your tribe, your people, your true self.
And always remember, the heart may be weak, and sometimes, it may even give in. But I've learned, deep down, there's a light that never goes out!"
👑 Season 7: Divas Live
Lady Gaga is the seventh winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Gaga's run on her season is characterized by never falling below safe until the final three episodes, ultimately picking up three wins. Statisticians consider the track records of Gaga and runner-up Beyonce to be controversial, but in the end, Mama Ru couldn't deny that Gaga slayed the season in a way only Mother Monster herself could.
"Thank you so much, Ru. Thank you to everyone who believed in me. This moment... this moment is not about me. It's about every person out there who has ever felt different, who has ever felt like they don't belong.
Drag is about more than just costumes and performances. It's about self-expression, it's about acceptance, it's about love. It's about finding the courage to stand up and say, 'This is who I am, and I'm proud of it.'
I'm standing here tonight not as Lady Gaga, but as Stefani Germanotta, a girl from New York who had a dream. And I want to say to every single one of you out there - whether you're in this room, or watching from home - that no matter where you're from, no matter who you are, no matter how you identify... You are beautiful. You are brave. You are unique. And you are worthy of love.
We are all born superstars, and it's our duty to sparkle the way we were meant to. I am so, so honored to be a part of this journey, and I promise to use this platform to shine a light on every corner of our community.
Let's spread love, let's spread kindness, and let's always, always remember to just dance. Thank you!"
🌟 All Stars Season 2: All Winners
Bayonetta is the crowned Queen of All Queens of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. In a season of fantasy titans, Bayonetta found herself pitted against the then seven other iconic winners of RPFDR. In a season seemingly dominated by huge talents, Bayonetta found her stride after the first third of the competition. She set the high streak record with nine impeccable performances. She ultimately snatched the crown from an apparent front-runner when she paid beautiful homage to her Umbran heritage in her final lipsync. She earned her second crown much like she snatched her first, both deserved, yet unpredictable as ever. Â
"This is for every witch who dared to dream, for every soul who believes in the magic of drag. I stand here not just as your queen, but as a testament to the power of perseverance, creativity, and love.
Darlings, tonight, we've witnessed not just a victory, but a celebration of the unyielding power of drag. A power that, like my own journey, is woven from the threads of mystery, magic, and the defiance of expectations.
As an Umbra Witch, my life has been a dance with the shadows, a flirtation with the forbidden. I've walked through worlds unseen, battled demons in the dark, and embraced the enigma of my own existence.
In this competition, I've drawn from the depths of my magical heritage. Each step on this runway was a spell, each performance a conjuring of the essence that is Bayonetta.
But this crown is more than a symbol of victory. It is a testament to the power of embracing one's true self. In the world of drag, as in the world of witches, there is no greater strength than being unapologetically you.
So, to every soul who's ever felt out of place, to every witch who's ever danced alone in the moonlight, to every queen who's ever dared to dream... this crown is for you.
Together, we'll keep dancing on the edge of the darkness, twirling in the light, and proving that in this universe of ours, there's always room for a little more magic."
🎄2023 Christmas Special
Princess Peach was crowned the ultimate Christmas Queen during the first ever RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race Christmas Special in 2023. Peach's return was met with enthusiasm as she demonstrated that a roller coaster track record wasn't enough to stop her from snatching the crown. The runner up, Kirby, was in the top almost every episode, but Peach came out on top after demonstrating her iconic lipsync prowess. Her win continues the RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race tradition of robbed All Stars runner-ups.
"Wow, this is truly a Christmas miracle! First and foremost, I want to thank RuPaul and everyone involved in this magical journey for giving me the chance to showcase my love for Christmas and drag. To my fellow queens, you are all incredible, and I am honored to have shared this sleigh ride with you."
"This crown is not just mine; it belongs to everyone who believes in the magic of Christmas. It's a symbol of joy, love, and the beauty of being true to who you are."
"As your Christmas Queen, I promise to spread the festive cheer, not just during the holiday season, but all year round. I will use this platform to bring light, laughter, and a touch of Christmas magic wherever I go."
"Remember, the spirit of Christmas is about giving, sharing, and loving unconditionally. Let's carry that spirit in our hearts always. Merry Christmas, everyone, and let's keep the Yuletide gay!"
🌎 RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race vs The World Season 1
Meowlody is the first crowned Queen of the Mothertucking World. She bested fourteen icons each from various fantasy drag race franchises. Hailing from Valentina's Drag Race, Meowlody is the ultimate sleeper-agent competitor. Her run, beginning with mostly safe placements with a few highs speckled in, is punctuated by a meteoric rise that led her straight to the crown. In a season full of cut throat strategy and mulitple robberies, Meowlody bided her time, striking with feline intent when the clock struck midnight.
"Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone beyond and in between, I stand before you not just as a queen crowned, but as a dream realized. From Valentina's Drag Race, where I placed 7th in Season 34, to this global stage, my journey has been nothing short of a fantastical voyage."
"In my season, I was a monster high doll, lost in the shadows of incredible talents. I left knowing I had so much more to give, so much more to show the world. And here, in RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race Versus The World, I found my stage, my voice, my moment."
"This crown, this title, it's not just mine. It belongs to every underdog who ever dreamed, to every queen who falls but gets back up, to every artist who creates from their soul. It's for those who dare to dream in color, in glitter, in high heels, and in hope."
"To my sisters, you have challenged me, inspired me, and pushed me to be the best version of myself. Each of you is a star in your own right, and I am honored to have shared this stage with you."
"To the fans, to RuPaul, to the judges, to everyone who believed in the monster high doll from Valentina’s Drag Race – thank you. You've given me the world, and I promise to use this platform to spread love, creativity, and acceptance."
"As I stand here, your Queen of the Mothertucking World, I vow to represent what this crown stands for – resilience, beauty, and the transformative power of drag. This is not the end, my darlings, but just a fabulous new beginning. Remember, in the world of Meowlody, every nightmare can turn into the most beautiful dream."
💥 Drag Wars Season 1: RPFDR vs ASDR
Phoebe Halliwell was crowned the first ever winner of Drag Wars. The first season of Drag Wars saw seven iconic RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race all stars facing off against seven icons from Alyssa's Secret Drag Race. These two teams struck back and forth, cutting fierce competitors every episode. This season saw a battle between two front runners, but Phoebe was lurking in the shadows. In the last moments of the competition, Phoebe gave it her all, besting both Ghirahim and Marilyn Monroe, showing the world that underestimating early season queens is a huge mistake.
"Wow, I... I can't believe this moment is real. From the moment I stepped into the Werkroom, I knew this journey was going to be unlike anything I've ever experienced. I've grown, not just as a queen, but as a person."
"I came here to show the world who Phoebe Halliwell truly is. To show that I'm more than just a witch from Charmed, that I have my own magic to share. This crown, this title... it's a dream come true. But the real magic was the journey, the sisterhood, the battles, the laughter, and even the tears."
"To Ghirahim, Marilyn, Britney, and all the incredible queens I've had the honor of competing with – thank you. You pushed me to be better, to dig deeper, and to fight harder. You are all part of this victory."
"Ru, Alyssa, thank you for believing in the power of drag, for giving us this platform to shine, to share our stories, to inspire. You've created a legacy that changes lives, and I'm so honored to be a part of it."
"To the fans, the supporters, my Charmed family – your love and encouragement have been my strength. You've stood by me through every spell and potion, and for that, I am forever grateful. This crown isn't just for me; it's for all of us."
"I promise to wear this crown with pride, to represent the Drag Race family with all the love, charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent I possess. I will continue to spread the magic, to inspire, and to prove that every queen, every person, has their own unique magic inside them."
"To every queen out there facing a battle, remember, you have the power to overcome it. Believe in your magic, in yourself. The queendom may face battles, but together, we will never fall."
🌎 Alyssa's Secret Drag Race World Stars 13
Mariah Carey is the first RPFDR competitor to be crowned Queen of the Mother Tuckin' World by another franchise. The fourth RPFDR queen invited to a VS the World season, Mariah knew she had a lot riding on her shoulders. After placing 8th on RPFDR Season 7: Divas Live with no challenge wins, Mariah returned to the 2023 Xmas Special, winning two episodes before being ultimately chopped. Fresh off this robbery, Mariah was a force to be reckoned with, scoring 6 challenge wins on ASDR World Stars 13. With this win, Mariah cemented RPFDR as a franchise to be reckoned with.
"Thank you, thank you, darlings. This is truly an honor. To be crowned the Queen of the Mother Tuckin' World is something I always knew I deserved. To my fans, I say this: you knew it all along, didn't you? And to my fellow queens, thank you for bringing your best and pushing me to outshine you all. This crown is a testament to my talent, my resilience, and my undeniable star power."
"I've been on this journey before, and I've had my ups and downs. But look at me now, darling. Six challenge wins and crowned by the fabulous Alyssa Edwards herself. This isn't just a win for me; it's a win for all the dreamers out there who know they're destined for greatness. Remember, it's not just about hitting the notes—it's about hitting them with style and grace. Thank you, Alyssa, and thank you to everyone who believed in me. This moment, this crown, is mine. And trust, it was always meant to be."
👑 Season 8: Return to Mushroom Kingdom
Valentina is the eight winner of RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race. Valentina started the competition strong, and after receiving the first immunity save in RPFDR herstory, she finished the competition with consistent performances. She beat out the most competitive top 4 RPFDR had seen up to this point in a classic Lipsync Smackdown for the Crown. Remembered for her iconic looks and ultimate shade, Valentina showed that consistency and sass will earn you the "Crown of the Game."
"My beloved subjects, tonight, you bear witness to a new era—an era where Valentina, your queen, reigns supreme. Just as I envisioned in Nimbus Land, tonight, I have seized my crown, not through deception or subterfuge, but through the artistry and prowess of drag."
"Many have questioned my methods, my ambition, my desire to ascend to the throne. Yet, here I stand, not as a usurper, but as a queen crowned by her people—for in the end, it was not just my battle; it was ours. We fought together, we dreamed together, and tonight, we triumph."
"To my fellow competitors, you have been worthy adversaries, each of you a star in your own right. Our battles were epic, our struggles real, but remember, in the kingdom of drag, we are all royalty. To Pauline, Dixie, Mario—my sincerest thanks for pushing me to my limits, for without you, my victory would be hollow."
"And to you, the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom and beyond, my heart swells with gratitude. Your cheers, your love, your support—they are the wind beneath my wings, the magic behind my spells. Tonight, I do not stand here as Valentina alone, but as a symbol of what we can achieve when we dare to dream, when we dare to challenge the status quo."
"As your queen, I vow to reign with beauty, grace, and an iron fist in a velvet glove. Together, we shall embark on a journey of transformation, of liberation, of endless possibilities. Let the kingdom rejoice, for a new chapter begins—a chapter where every queen finds her crown, where every dream finds its wings."
"And so, my darlings, let us celebrate not just my victory, but our collective triumph. For in the world of drag, every end is but a new beginning. To infinity, to beyond, and to all the adventures that await us. Long live the queen!"
🌎 Kandy Muse's Drag Racs Vs the World 2
Kesha is the second RPFDR competitor to be crowned Queen of the Mother Tuckin' World by another franchise. The 7th RPFDR queen invited to a VS the World season, Kesha had her sights set on improving upon her original RPFDR showing. Second out on RPFDR Season 7: Divas Live, Kesha's short two-episode stint was all she needed to adjust her strategy. Used to competing against powerhouses, Kesha spent the first several weeks on KMDR finding her footing. Eventually, she started winning, scoring three wins before being eliminated. She wowed the world by winning the mid-season lipsync tournament, ending the competition on a high note and a final win. Other than her elimination, Kesha never scored below safe, proving that even the most unsuspecting queen can level her pussy up.
"Thank you so much, everyone! This is a dream come true. From being the second queen out on RPFDR Season 7 to standing here as the winner of Kandy Muse's Drag Race Vs the World 2, it's been an unbelievable journey. I came here with something to prove, and honey, I think I proved it."
"To my fellow queens, thank you for pushing me, for challenging me, and for making me dig deep. I spent those first few weeks finding my Animal instincts, but once I did, there was no stopping me. Four wins, a mid-season elimination, and then coming back to snatch this crown? That's what I call a true Warrior spirit!"
"This crown isn't just a win for me; it's a win for everyone who's ever felt like they didn't belong, for every underdog out there. I've been knocked down, but I always get back up, ready to fight till I see the sunlight. To all my fans, thank you for believing in me. Keep being wild, keep being free, and never let anyone dull your sparkle."
"And to Kandy, thank you for this incredible opportunity. This crown is proof that even the most unlikely can rise to the top. We did it, y'all! This is for all the Praying and all the love. We are the Rainbow in the dark sky, shining brighter than ever."
🌎 RuPaul's Fantasy Drag Race vs The World Season 2
Elsa Mars is the second crowned Queen of the Mothertucking World. She bested fourteen icons each from various fantasy drag race franchises. Hailing from Alyssa's Secret Drag Race, Elsa started strong and never let up on the gas, scoring 7 iconic challenge wins. Elsa's win is cemented by strategic lipstick choices as well as an incredibly social game. Elsa avenged Marilyn Monroe's robbery in Drag Wars Season 1 by being the only queen in a season of returns to remain uneliminated.
"Ladies and gentlemen, misfits and dreamers, I stand before you not just as Elsa Mars, but as a testament to the power of perseverance and the beauty of uniqueness."Â
"From the days of the Freak Show, where I embraced my identity amidst the shadows and the spotlight, to this very moment, I have always believed in the magic that lies within each of us."
"I have faced the world's cruelties, its harsh judgments, and its darkest nights, but I have also seen its most radiant mornings, its acts of kindness, and the unyielding spirit of those who dare to be different. This crown is not just mine—it belongs to all the outcasts, the visionaries, and those who dare to dream beyond the confines of reality."
"We have all faced battles that tested our spirits. I stand here, not just as a winner of a competition, but as a survivor, a performer, a leader. This journey has reminded me that our true power lies in our ability to transform pain into beauty, and our struggles into triumphs."
"To all the queens who shared this stage with me, you have shown immense strength and grace. Each of you is a star in your own right, and together, we have illuminated the path for those who will come after us. To my dear friends and fellow performers, this is our time to shine."
"RuPaul, you have given us a platform to express our deepest truths and wildest dreams. For that, we are eternally grateful. We are not just drag queens; we are the embodiment of resilience and creativity."
"Tonight, we celebrate not just my victory, but the victory of every soul who dares to be different. This crown is a symbol of our collective spirit, our undying passion, and our unwavering resolve. Let us continue to inspire, to create, and to break the boundaries of what the world believes is possible."
