Previous Performance: UK Series 1, 3rd Place
Quote: "Last time I was an old scrubber from Soho... but since then you could say I've had a glow up. I've had me lips done, I've had me teeth done... a bit of Botox, a bit of filler. I'm going to BRING it this time! The wigs, the outfits are going to be MUCH BETTA. I am ready to battle. I'm going to knock them out one by one! Baga Chipz is going to kick you right up the arse."

Lemon
Representing: Canada
Previous Performance: Canada Season 1, 5th Place

Previous Performance: Judge and Co-Host of Drag Race Thailand
Quote: "I can sing, I can dance, I can act! I am an Asian chameleon. I love serving you a different variety of drag. I'm excited to compete with the all the queens from the world – but they don't know who I am. I am going to be the dark horse of this competition! I know what they can do, but they don't know what I can do."
