On Friday, April 19, Nymphia Wind became the latest in a long timeline of performers who have snatched the crown and title of ‘America’s Next Drag Superstar’ when she emerged victorious as the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 16.

The very first winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race was Bebe Zahara Benet, who, on March 23, 2009, took home a crown and sceptre in addition to a measly $20,000 prize – compared to the $200,000 that Nymphia Wind won last weekend.

Since 2009, an impressive 64 drag artists have become official Drag Race winners, on a variety of international series and campy spin-offs like RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race and The Switch.

To celebrate Nymphia’s win and to look back on all of the stunning LGBTQ+ talent that has been introduced to the world thanks to the global phenomenon that is RuPaul’s Drag Race, GCN has compiled a complete timeline of every Drag Race winner ever.

So, without further ado, here’s a timeline of every Drag Race winner from the US to Thailand, from Down Under to All Stars.
