O Canad-slay!
Canada is getting our very own version of RuPaul’s Drag Race! Set in the Great White North, filming is set to get underway soon with the show premiering before the end of the year.
“I am proud to announce that the Drag Race family is expanding as Crave is about to begin production on DRAG RACE CANADA,” said RuPaul. “The panel and judges will be from the Great White North, representing Canada’s very best. This new franchise has my whole-hearted blessing. Good luck…and don’t puck it up!”

The news comes just months after a UK version of the show was announced. Considering that Ru’s name is missing from the title, it appears the iconic drag queen won’t be hosting the Canadian version.
Crave and OUTtv will host all three versions of the show following their release.
