Start your engines, the queens are coming in hot. RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 10 kicks off this May with an exciting new format twist, a whopping $200,000 prize, and its largest-ever cast of 18 fierce queens. For the first three episodes, the contestants will compete across three brackets, Team Purple, Team Orange, and Team Pink. It’s the Tournament of All Stars, and only nine will make it to the semi-finals before one lip syncs their way to Hall of Fame glory.
Here’s your lightning-speed guide to the queens battling for the crown:
