What's with all the season 14 Queens? Is this like a trial run for some of them for AS9?

Also having seen the Snatch Game spoilers, it's so gutting were not getting one with Darienne and MKD involved.

Oh that format is disappointing, and Heidi's choice is very WTF
 
I’ve always been surprised they’ve not had Shannel back for another All Stars.

They really do pay the early season girls dust, which is probably partially why. I remember when I was watching Drag Race season 1 when it was airing (christ, i'm old), I was so wow'ed by Shannel. She was fierce and her confidence and attitude really is memorable to me.
It's also possible she's seen the newer Drag Race contracts and has decided she doesn't want to do all that. Plus All Stars is usually pretty rigged or set up to push certain queens and that kind of takes the fun out of it. If they were ever going to give Shannel a crown, they would've got her by now, so maybe she doesn't think it's worth it.

Also her face tuning is almost giving Coco a run for it's money, it's iconic.
 
he/him
Some Global All-Stars rumours are doing the rounds

It's said to be an AS7 situation with no eliminations and a point system to determine the top 4.

Rumoured Cast:
- Alyssa Edwards
- Art Simone
- Cheddar Gorgeous
- Elecktra Bionic
- Envy Peru
- Kam Hugh
- Killer Queen
- Kimmy Couture
- Miz Cracker
- Naomi Smalls
- Pangina Heals
- Precious Paula Nicole
Still a bit uncomfortable that the whole point for Pangina to go on an international series was to hopefully secure a new production company for Drag Race Thailand, but Drag Race Thailand still remains up in the air and she's getting spots that could have gone to the actual contestants on the show. Like there's too many stars for just Pangina to be the only one brought over to an international audience if they somehow can't lock in a company.

I think UK Vs. The World got pretty poor viewership outside of the UK, so I wonder if having her on Global All Stars has the same intention of relaunching Thailand but with more will behind it.
 
Apparently, the calls have now gone out, and here are some of the girls who got the call

Alyssa Edwards (US)
Charity Kase (UK)
Farida Kant (Italy)
Janey Jacke (Holland)
Kam Hugh (France)
Minty Fresh (Philippines)
Miz Cracker (US)
Naomi Smalls (US)
Pythia (Canada)
Tayce (UK)
Vanda Miss Joaquim (Thailand)
Venedita Von Dash (Spain)
Vivian Vanderpuss (Canada)
Yuri Guaii (DU)

Alyssa, Naomi and Tayce would be great finalists.
 
They've really fumbled the bag with Heidi. She's the perfect All Stars comeback kid storyline, and has the talent, the personality, and now the improved quality of drag that would make for a highly satisfying winner amongst a cast of generally dimmer-wattage star power competitors (at least in comparison to previous years). Instead, they've seemingly given this role to LaLa (whom I do like, but just doesn't quite have the same impact as Heidi), are taking Kandy to the final as their main source of narrative, and are ultimately pushing Jimbo as their 'twist' of a winner this year ('we crowned a non-US contestant as an All Star - the doors this will open!').

I have real concerns that, upon smelling blood with Heidi providing them with a juicy story, they're going to double down and give her something of a villainous edit over the next two episodes, rather than a sympathetic one. I'm guessing Heidi's friction with Kandy will portray the latter in a good light, and the former in an envious one - they've already planted the seed in Untucked between Jimbo/Heidi, and Jaymes's talking head calling her 'jealous'.

Basically, I think they're doing something similar-ish with Heidi to what they did with Latrice in AS4. I'm not saying that Heidi is entirely without fault here if the above does come to pass, but I can also completely understand that she would spin out if she could see the writing on the wall.
 
What's with all the season 14 Queens? Is this like a trial run for some of them for AS9?

I presume it's very easy to get them on board, given that contracts with WOW nowadays basically dictate that you're at their beck and call for a fairly significant amount of time after filming to partake in anything Drag Race-related they want you to attend.

I also believe a fair few of those listed live within, or close enough to LA.
