The show documents RuPaul in the search for `` America 's next drag superstar. '' RuPaul plays the role of host, mentor, and head judge for this series, as contestants are given different challenges each week. RuPaul 's Drag Race employs a panel of judges, including RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews, Carson Kressley, and a host of other guest judges, who critique contestants ' progress throughout the competition. The title of the show is a play on drag queen and drag racing, and the title sequence and song `` Drag Race '' both have a drag - racing theme. RuPaul 's Drag Race has spanned ten seasons and inspired the spin - off shows RuPaul 's Drag U and RuPaul 's Drag Race : All Stars. The show has become the highest - rated television program on Logo TV, and airs internationally, including in Australia, Canada, UK, The Netherlands and Israel. The show earned RuPaul a 2016 Emmy for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality - Competition Program, and the show itself was awarded as an Outstanding Reality Program at the 21st GLAAD Media Awards. It has been nominated for 4 Critics ' Choice Television Award including Best Reality Series -- Competition and Best Reality Show Host for RuPaul, and was nominated for a Creative Arts Emmy Award for Outstanding Make - up for a Multi-Camera Series or Special ( Non-Prosthetic ).

All contestants selected must be 21 years of age or older at the time of taping. Applications of any sexual orientation or gender identity are accepted, although most contestants to date have been gay men. Transgender women are eligible to compete and have become more common as seasons have progressed. Sonique, a season two contestant, became the first openly transgender contestant ; she came out as transgender during the Season 2 reunion special. Monica Beverly Hillz, from season five, became the first transgender woman to reveal her status during the competition. Other transgender contestants have begun transitioning after their elimination. Carmen Carrera, a season three contestant, announced her transition during an episode of ABC 's Primetime : What Would You Do ? Season 4 contestant Kenya Michaels announced her own transition via Facebook and Twitter. Other transgender contestants include Stacy Layne Matthews, Jiggly Caliente, Gia Gunn, and Peppermint. RuPaul plays dual roles in the show. USA Today 's Lifeline explains : `` RuPaul the drag queen will be the final word in judging and eliminations, while RuPaul the man will offer guidance to contestants for each challenge. '' RuPaul 's Drag Race uses progressive elimination to reduce the number of drag queens in the competition from the initial field of fourteen contestants ( the maximum a season has started with ) down to the final three or four, who will compete in the final challenge. In Seasons 1, 2, and 3, the contestants were narrowed down to a final two, with a winner being selected the final episode. Each episode ( with the exception of the casting special, `` recap '' episode, and reunion special ) follows a format consisting of a mini challenge, a main challenge, a runway walk ( where the contestants model fashion on a runway, usually with a theme based on the main challenge ), the judging panel, a lipsync battle, and the elimination of a contestant. There have been some exceptions to episodes, including double - elimination episodes, no - elimination episodes, disqualifications of a contestant, and the removal of a contestant due to an injury. Mini challenges In the mini challenge, each contestant is asked to perform a different task with varying requirements and time limitations. Certain mini challenges are repeated from season to season. For instance, the first mini challenge of the first six seasons is a photo shoot with the photographer Mike Ruiz that includes some kind of special twist ( such as being doused with water while in full drag, having a high - powered fan turned on during the shoot, or being photographed while jumping on a trampoline ). Another recurring mini challenge is dedicated to `` reading, '' a drag term for making insulting observations about one 's peers for comedic effect. The winner of a mini challenge is sometimes rewarded with some kind of advantage in the main challenge. Though most episodes have a mini challenge, select episodes do not and progress straight to the main challenge. Main challenges The requirements of the main challenge vary across each episode, and can be individual or group challenges, and initially grant immunity to the winner in the next challenge ( until RuPaul announces the discontinuation of that policy mid-season ). However, as of season 6, immunity is no longer granted to challenge winners. The winner of the main challenge also receives a `` special '' prize for their win. In the past, challenge winners have been rewarded with prizes including custom designer clothing, vacations, cruises, and quality cosmetic items. The final main challenge of every season is where the contestants star in RuPaul 's music video, with the exception of season 9. The goal of each main challenge involves a new theme and outcome. Contestants are often asked to design and construct a custom outfit, sometimes incorporating unconventional materials. Other challenges focus on the contestants ' ability to present themselves on camera, perform with music, or perform humorously. Some challenges become a tradition across seasons. Judging Judges on RuPaul 's Drag Race Judge Season 5 6 7 8 9 10 RuPaul Main Merle Ginsberg Main Guest Santino Rice Main Guest Michelle Visage Main Billy B Main Ross Mathews Guest Main Carson Kressley Main Beginning with the seventh season, Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews and Carson Kressley are the staple judges alongside RuPaul. Visage joined the show at the start of season 3, while Mathews and Kressley joined at the start of season 7, and each joins RuPaul and Visage on alternate episodes. Past fixtures on the panel include Merle Ginsberg, who was a regular judge in the first two seasons, and Santino Rice, who held his position from the first season until the conclusion of the sixth. Until season 8, Rice was the only person, apart from RuPaul, to take part in every season of the show, serving as a main judge for seasons one through six, and all stars 1, and guest judging for season seven. In certain instances, Rice was absent and replacement judging has been provided by make - up artist Billy Brasfield ( better known as Billy B ), Mike Ruiz, Jeffrey Moran ( Absolut Vodka marketing executive ), or Lucian Piane. However, due to Brasfield 's numerous appearances in seasons three and four, including appearing in the Reunited episodes both seasons, Rice and Billy B are considered to have been alternates for the same seat at the judges table throughout the two seasons. Prior to the grande finale, the three main judges are joined by two celebrity guest judges each week. Guest judges have included Paula Abdul, Pamela Anderson, Eve, Ariana Grande, Neil Patrick Harris, Kathy Griffin, Debbie Harry, Khloé Kardashian, La Toya Jackson, Adam Lambert, Demi Lovato, Bob Mackie, Rose McGowan, Olivia Newton - John, Rebecca Romijn, Gigi Hadid, Sharon Osbourne, Dan Savage, John Waters, Michelle Williams, Candis Cayne, Martha Wash, Natalie Cole, Dita Von Teese, Niecy Nash, Debbie Reynolds, Vanessa Williams, Wilmer Valderrama, The Pointer Sisters, Trina, Leah Remini, The B - 52 's, Kesha and Lady Gaga. The judges each provide their opinion on the contestants ' performances in the main challenge and on the runway before RuPaul announces which queen is the episode 's winner and which two had the weakest performances. The day before judging, the contestants are all provided with a song to which they must learn the lyrics. The contestants deemed as being the bottom two must `` lip sync for their lives '' to the song in a final attempt to impress RuPaul. After the lip sync, RuPaul alone decides who stays and who leaves. RuPaul describes the qualities the contestants must have to be crowned the winner of the show as `` Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent... These are people who have taken adversity and turned it into something that is beautiful and something powerful. '' The phrase `` charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent '' is used repeatedly on the show, the acronym of which is CUNT. On the first All Stars season, `` synergy '' was added to provide an explanation behind the contestants being sorted into teams ( expanding the acronym into CUNTS ). Untucked The first season of Drag Race was accompanied by a seven - episode web series, titled Under the Hood of RuPaul 's Drag Race. LOGOonline published a webisode of Under the Hood after each episode of Drag Race. In this companion series, RuPaul presents a documentary of contestants ' conversation in the green room, replays pertinent moments from Drag Race, and airs deleted footage. Starting with the second season of Drag Race in 2010, Logo reformatted Under the Hood, increased its production budget, moved it from the web to television, and re-titled it to RuPaul 's Drag Race : Untucked. Logo broadcast an episode of Untucked after each episode of Drag Race. Untucked replaces the basic green room of Under the Hood with two decorated rooms that were until season 6 sponsored by Absolut Vodka and Interior Illusions, Inc. : the Interior Illusions Lounge and the Gold Bar. FormDecor sponsored the Lounge for season 6. These two backstage areas allow for separated group conversation. At the start of the seventh season of the Drag Race, Untucked reverted to a webseries, as part of the World of Wonder YouTube page. Instead of two decorated rooms, Untucked was moved back to the one room, an empty backstage space that connects to the main stage and work room, with couches for contestants to chat on. The newly renovated version also follows contestants following their elimination from the show, documenting them packing their belongings and leaving the set. The webseries format continued for the eighth and ninth season. For the show 's tenth season, it was announced that Untucked would return to television.

But we 're hoping to pick it up again in the near future. I am definitely serving ' middle - aged - realness ! ' '' RuPaul has since explained, `` I think that because truTV has brought all the seasons of Drag Race to the UK I think that that might be something that will happen much sooner.... I think that people will fall so in love with the show, I think that the hunger and the thirst for a UK version will probably happen. That 's my prediction. '' To coincide with TruTV airing new seasons of the show in the UK, RuPaul hosted a competition to find a UK Ambassador for RuPaul 's Drag Race with judges Jonathan Ross and Katie Price in May 2015.

For example, Popbytes commented Drag Race has been accused numerous times of keeping some of the more unpleasant but feminine queens in the competition for the sake of keeping the drama high. However, Common Sense Media commented, `` RuPaul 's Drag Race combines the fashion design drama of Project Runway with the modeling excitement of America 's Next Top Model to create an entertainingly voyeuristic glimpse into the performance art world of drag queens. There 's plenty of over-the - top stuff, but rather than simply treating drag performers as people to be laughed at and / or scorned, the show also focuses on the hard work and talent that goes into drag performances. '' Entertainment Weekly cited the elimination of comedian and eventual season two fan favorite Pandora Boxx as the season 's most controversial. In March 2014, Drag Race sparked controversy over the use of the term `` She - male '' in the season 6 Mini-challenge `` Female or She - male ? ''. Logo has since removed the episode from all platforms and has addressed the allegations of transphobia by removing the `` You 've got she - mail '' intro from new episodes of the series. This was replaced with, `` She done already done had herses ! '' International broadcast Australia : In Australia, lifestyle channel LifeStyle YOU regularly shows and re-screens seasons 1 - 7, including Untucked.
