I'd be down for a regular show too which would be great to feature queens from all over the world who may not have a DR planned in their country

I'm interested to see how this plays out! I'm 50/50 about Kitty being on the cast. Not that I dislike them, actually the opposite. I'm just worried the global all stars format will be a bit too much for them. Their humour may get lost in the process, somewhat similar to The Vivienne on All Winners season at times. I think they would be better on a UK vs the World or UK All Stars if that ever happens! .

I really hope UK All Stars is something actually in the pipeline following season 5 or 6 because there's so much potential for that to be amazing.

I'm excited to see what this ends up being like, but I'm not convinced it's going to be any different to the likes of UK/Canada VTW at the moment? Surely it makes more sense just to continue that series with a different host nation?

Agree, I think for the only one UK rep Kitty SC is such a random choice.

As well as them using the unfavorite season, 3, again! Meaning that out of all UK queens chosen for All Stars/Vs the World seasons, (spoiler for unreleased seasons): FOUR OUT OF SEVEN will have been from season 3! with only one from every other UK season to date and none for season 5.

However, one advantage might be that Alyssa E knows her, so that might help with some kind of an alliance.

Spoiler for format:

The format is thought to be a 'new' kind. No details as to what exactly that would entail yet, but several non elimination episodes are in the pipeline. Possibly an elim every two episodes instead of every one episode?

There are spoilers about the All Stars 9 format out there with it being a revamped All Winners format with a top 2 lip sync and a bottom 2/3. Lip sync winner chooses a queen from teh bottom to block but that queen doesn't find out they're blocked until the main stage the episode after!. Could be something like that?

Honestly the Ru girl choices are so weak imo, the rep for Brazil/Italia/Thailand/France I feel will eat them up but I fear that Ru will keep the Ru girls over the international ones.

Also cast is prettty set as:

Athena Likis (Belgium)
Miranda Lebrao (Brazil)
Pythia (Canada)
Kween Kong (Down Under)
Soa De Muse (France)
Tess Testicle (Germany)
Nehellenia (Italia)
Gala Varo (Mexico)
Eve La Queen (Phillipines)
Vanity Vain (Sverige)
Kitty Scott-Claus

And possibly Bandit for Thailand and Alyssa and/or Naomi for US. No Spanish or Dutch rep but the Javis seem to be judges in some shape or form for Spain, perhaps they have a few rotating judges from different franchises


As the format there appears to be 6 non elim episodes so I’m wondering if maybe there will be some kind of points system up to then and whoever performs worst goes and then maybe there is a couple of normal eliminations.

Pleasantly surprising if there does end up being only one (or none) US queen. Seems like no matter what franchise there always has to be 2-4 for Ru to feel some sort of familiarity.

There’s definitely one US girl, seems now it is Alyssa

I’m glad they’re sticking to only one from each represented franchise! I really expected them to just ger a few big name queens who already did All Stars back and then chuck in a couple of Paramount girls and have done with it laugh.gif

Maybe it'll be every other episode that an eimination happens?

Interested to see how this all plays out. Especially given every queen is from a different country!

Filming done, looks like the top 4 is Kween, Alyssa, Kitty and Nehellenia, Kween and Kitty apparently dominated.

First out seems to be Eva or Athena

I am so here for that if Kitty really does dominate/proves me wrong!.

I heard that the clear frontrunner was Nehellenia which is cool.

Season should be airing not long after S16, updated tea (as always take with a pinch of salt, untagged as per recent forum developments):


Top 2 of Alyssa and Kween, with the latter being the frontrunner, Alyssa only has one win and a more mediocre run
Kitty also does well, her and Nehellenia are top 4 also (variably rumours say all 4 lipsync to win, rather than there being a top 2)
Athena, Miranda, Vanity and Eva are the early outs
Tessa Testicle is 5th and does well!!

Less solid rumours:
Format is lipsync for your life, but the first two episodes are non elim. At episode 3 which is a Ball, the lowest ranked queen is eliminated, which is Athena
Kween has lots of wins/top 2s, potentially 4 or 5
There appears to potentially be a comeback episode or queen of the fame games lipsync tournament type thing, which either is won by Vanity or Soa
It appears that there is a top 2 for challenges but only one queen wins, unclear what happens with the rest but there are high queens too, it doesn’t appear to be lipsync for your legacy either


The format sounds weird but it’s exciting not knowing a lot about it and could be a good freshen up for the show as it’s a new branch of the franchise really.

One of the reliable spillers has told us a bit about some of the queens’ edits:

Alyssa is given a positive “mother of the group” edit, comes across as a likely winner
Kitty has a villain edit, Baga on UKvTW vibes
Tessa is kind of a deluded Serena Cha Cha villain type, she flops basically the whole season
Kween has a bit of a cold/professional edit and is a bit cocky, but does the best
Nehellenia is Ru’s fave
Soa comes across unprepared in comedy etc
Vanity Vain has a Miss Congeniality type edit and is the lipsync assassin
Eve kind of flops after winning the talent show and is read a lot for her runways, particularly one really bad Disney inspired runway




Other assorted tea:
Tessa does badly at virtually every challenge but wins a design challenge which is seen as an unfair win by the others.
Kitty wins Snatch Game as Princess Diana
Vanity is said to have possibly the worst roast of all time, Utica level
Eva does rice cooking for the talent show and is top 2 but Vanity wins the lipsync

I love seeing drag Princess Dianas but I hope she's allowed to be decently dark because it's not really funny otherwise.

Not surprised that Soa struggles in comedy because she was originally rumored to not be even eligible to cast because her English wasn't strong enough to do a whole show in English.

On that note, making them compete in English feels a bit unfair given Thailand has already shown that having bilingual competition isn't impossible.

I think Soa’s English is fine, from what I heard she wasn’t that confident in English but it’s better than she admits so she was fine to be on and took the plunge.

I think they should just do like design, performance etc challenges, nobody would miss some horrible scripted challenge and honestly nobody would miss Snatch Game with the standard of it in nearly every season lately. I think it’s going to make the season feel worse as it goes on that a lot of the ESEL queens who personally I want to see more of go early and we end up left with the obvious Rugirls. If you look at say acting or Snaych Game, of course you will just get Kitty/Pythia/Alyssa/Kween doing well in those and the others struggling.

They could maybe still do a Snatch Game type thing but do as say a talent show type thing, you can do a normal impression of them as a monologue or something, or do a performance as a popstar for example. That way you don’t have a language barrier, even if someone speaks English fluently or close to it, I imagine it must be so hard to improvise in a second language. I suppose it would be harder than Thailand had it, as they just met in the middle with some English whereas here you have Spanish, French, Italian etc.
