RuPaul Finally Gives Us The Trailer And Date For Drag Race Season Seven!

Isn't that a headline you are glad to read? RuPaul has finally lifted the veil and confirmed what we had all expected all along -- Drag Race Season Seven will start in March. March 2, to be precise. Are you excited? Because I am!





I can't get ENOUGH of this trailer! Honestly it looks like they were far more careful with things this year, as in the past the trailers gave away far too much. This year everything is short and choppy and there are very few queens we get to see more than once. Most of what we've seen in this seems to be from the first few episodes, as all of the challenges have quite a few girls. Also it looks like they are doing another throwback challenge, as we got to see some people imitating the House of Edwards ladies. Lawd, this season.

What we actually saw more consistency out of were the judges. Of course we have Ru and Michelle, but it looks like long-time judge Santino has been reduced to guest appearances. No official statement has been made yet as to why he's no longer a regular, but from Ru's end it looks like they remain good friends. In his place we have a couple of new-yet-familiar faces. Carson Kressley from Queer Eye For The Straight Guy and Chelsea Lately round-table regular Ross Matthews have stepped up to make sure these girls get a good reading.

The trailer also showed us some of the guest judges such as Demi Lovato and Ariana Grande. What we didn't see was the slew of huge names the show has gotten, such as Rebecca Romijn, Kathy Griffin, Oliva Newton-John, and Alyssa Milano. Unfortunately it looks like even though we have seen Ru and Frankmusik become good friends recently, that he hasn't been invited (as a judge at least). There's always next year, boo!

So far I don't have a good grasp on the queens, so I can't really say who is who in the trailer, or who looks better than who, but I can say it looks like Katya makes it past the first episode, and that's something, right? Also Ginger got her name dropped, so maybe a big gurl will actually turn heads this year! Werk!

It all goes down March 2. You can check here the next day for a sickening review.
