It seems like only yesterday the relatively disliked ending of All Stars 4 hit our screens, seeing the double crowning of Trinity The Tuck and Monét X Change. The season was overall very successful for the franchise, with the initial cast announcement being extremely well received, and now filming has begun on All Stars 5!

Whilst no official cast announcement has been made, leaks and rumours have revealed the most likely cast to compete as the newest All Stars. Let's dive into the queens we expect to see, spoilers ahead!

Shea Coulee

This queen has been rumoured since All Stars 3, after achieving four challenge wins on season nine, it was always clear that Shea's return to the competition was inevitable. Shea declined the offer for both All Stars 3 & 4 in order to make sure she was at the top of her game when returning to Drag Race and now, the time has finally come.

Fans have been waiting for this moment, and there is absolutely no reason to expect Shea to not make it all the way. Judging by her track record on season nine, placing your bets on Shea to take home the crown would not be a bad idea at all, but remember, this is All Stars, anything can happen.

Blair St Clair

The sweetheart of season 10, Blair St Clair is back for All Stars 5! Her disturbing revelation and shocking elimination on her original season left fans desperately needing more. After Drag Race, Blair released a dance album, which reached number one on iTunes and more music is planned to come soon. Blair's old Hollywood, refined and exquisite style will prove to be an amazing addition to the runway.

Ongina

After being shortlisted four times... Ongina is FINALLY on! The season one fan favourite hasn't competed on the show for 10 years, but she has still managed to maintain a strong fanbase. Ongina made the top five, being sent home after controversial lip sync against the season one winner, Bebe Zahara Benet. Despite her amazing run on her original season, since she has been out of the game for so long, she's a bit of a wildcard. As much as we hate to admit it, the evidence shows that All Stars does tend to favour the most popular queens over the early outs, but I have nothing but high hopes for Ongina's return.

Mayhem Miller

May May is back in the house! Another season 10 queen is returning to the werk room, and we couldn't be more excited! Mayhem won the first challenge of her season, but did not make it very far. She has an extremely strong fan base, which she has built up since before her season, which has only intensified. We were then blessed with her "blinking meme" (I have no clue how else to describe it), and on top of that, Mayhem was brought back for the 'Holi-slay Spectacular' Christmas special, which, as we all remember, she absolutely slayed. Fans really hope to see Mayhem come out of her shell, which she struggled with on season 10, but we're sure she will make for great TV and bring it to the runway!

Derrick Barry

It's Derrick b*tch! Everyone's favourite Britney impersonator from season eight is rumoured to be having another shot at snatching the crown. Despite making it to the top five, Derrick didn't exactly have the smoothest journey to get there, but since then she has had an extremely successful show on WoW Presents Plus, called Wait, What? which she hosts with season eight alumni Kimora Blac. Both Derrick's style and eyebrows have extremely improved since her last time competing, and she could have an extreme impact on the dynamic of the show, we will just have to wait and see.

Miz Cracker

Ok Katelyn time for All Stars! This fan favourite from season 10 is back with a vengeance, and fans couldn't be more excited! Miz Cracker did amazingly well on her season, making it to the top five, but, despite her best efforts, only achieved one challenge win. Cracker's beauty, wit, and campiness gives her an excellent shot at becoming the next queen to make it into the hall of fame!

Mariah Paris Balenciaga

Mariah, an underrated season three who has been playing nicely with World of Wonder for a while now is finally getting her chance to compete again. Mariah had some iconic moments on season three, and was a standout character, she always slayed the runway, and I'm sure she will bring the same exquisite taste to the All Star stage. This queen has been wanted by fans for many seasons, and now our dreams our finally coming true! There's no doubt that, if given the chance, Mariah will give us the shady iconic moments that we all remember her for once again.

India Ferrah

Yet another season three queen, India Ferrah is coming back to the race! This has brought up a lot of uproar online as she is mainly remembered for her lip sync against Mimi Imfurst (who lifted her up and carried her around mid lip sync) and are worried about she qualifies as an 'All Star.' At the same time, India did have some memorable moments, but season three had massive personalities such as Shangela, Manila Luzon, Mariah, and Raja who overshadowed her. Hopefully, India will achieve her full potential the second time around, and prove the haters wrong. If this wasn't enough of a gag, just wait and see who's next on the list...

Jujubee

The comedy queen of season two is back! Making it to the top of the competition in both season two AND All Stars 1, Jujubee has been a fan favourite of OG fans, and her return is more than welcome! It will be exciting to see her glow up from the last time she competed on Drag Race and I expect extremely great things from her.

Alexis Mateo

Finally, Alexis Mateo is going to the final queen competing on All Stars 5, from both season three and All Stars 1. Alexis is the drag mother of the extremely popular Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, who placed in the top five of season 11. Alexis brings the exact same energy, and is such a powerhouse, but she is another wildcard on this season. There are so many fan favourites, and it may be hard for Alexis to steal the spotlight, but we all wish her the best of luck!
