The Week in Drag – Trinity The Tuck’s early Christmas gift, Bob cracks us up, Alyssa Hunter comes out of the closet and more – News JoJo

Hello, hello, hello! We are back with news, updates and lewks from your favorite queens.

This week, we find out whose Snatch Game failed to win over Mama Ru on Drag Race UK, meet the judges (including some very familiar faces) for season 4 of Canada’s Drag Race and get the details on two fierce new series on WOW Presents Plus.

In addition, we bid farewell to Halloween with Jaymes and Delta and say hello to the holidays with Trinity The Tuck. We also have fun new videos from Bob, Trixie and Willam and head into Alyssa Hunters’ drag room. There’s lots to see here, so let’s bring it to the runway!

This week on Drag Race UK, the queens played the beloved Snatch Game and gave us a “heart-on” with their stunning runway looks. Danny Beard takes us through the highs and lows of the episode and chats with the queen who sadly had ton sashay away on “The After Shave.”

Last week, the UK queens brought the British tradition of pantomime to the main stage and glittered on the runway in mirrored looks. Our “Binge Queens,” Kennedy Davenport, Lawrence Chaney, Cheryl Hole, and Blu Hydrangea, watched and had lots to say. Get a sneak peek of the episode here, and don’t miss the full episodes on WOW Presents Plus.

Last week’s eliminated queen, the statuesque Banksie, talks to Cosmo about the challenge that sent her home, her final lip sync and last walk on the runway and her perfect Snatch Game character.

World of Wonder confirmed a star-studded selection of guest judges joining the table with Brooke Lynn Hytes, Brad Goreski, and Traci Melchor, on Season 4 of Canada’s Drag Race.

They are Nelly Furtado, Winnie Harlow, Luann de Lesseps, Tegan and Sara, Jaida Essence Hall, Ra’Jah O’Hara, Sarain Fox, Rêve, and Christian Allaire.

The queens competing to be Canada’s Next Drag Superstar are Aimee Yonce Shennel, Aurora Matrix, Denim, Kiki Coe, Kitten Kaboodle, Luna DuBois, Melinda Verga, Nearah Nuff, Sisi Superstar, The Girlfriend Experience, and Venus. Season four of Canada’s Drag Race premieres Thursday, November 16 at 9 pm ET on WOW Presents Plus.

This week, World of Wonder also unveiled the new trailers for their upcoming original series, Sissy that Psyche and Grag Hearts Drag.

In Sissy That Psyche, licensed psychotherapist Dr. Matthew Brinkley, his fiancé David Brandyn and his bestie Dvaughn Neville, give a play-by-play breakdown of iconic RuPaul’s Drag Race meltdowns, and reveal the best strategies to navigate conflict with in-person guests and callers who find themselves in similar situations. The show premieres exclusively on WOW Presents Plus on November 6.

Grag Hearts Drag follows singing pop sensation (and season one winner of Queen of the Universe), Grag Queen, as she gets up close and personal with the stars of Drag Race Brasil on their home turf and neighboring cities. Grag Hearts Drag is a celebration of all things Brazilian drag – no passport required! The show premieres exclusively on WOW Presents Plus on November 8. 

While Halloween is now officially in our rear-view mirror, we wanted to share a few more treats with you – because it’s never too early to plan for next year. First, Jaymes Mansfield restyles a “not Elvira” wig from Amazon. She turns this bouffant into “low budget Ronnie Spector” magic, and I am here for it.

On the last “Very Scary Delta” of the year, Delta Work, serving Daphne from Scooby Doo realness, interviews season 4’s Madame LaQueer.

Judging by my neighbor’s lawn decorations, Christmas is on the way and Trinity The Tuck has announced not one but two new treats to fill your shimmering stockings this upcoming holiday season.  Her first-ever Christmas album, Trinity Ruins Christmas: The Musical, produced by Drew Lewis & co-written by Trinity & Drew features a sleigh full of St Nick’s most talented drag superstars – Alaska, JIMBO, Manila Luzon, Aria B Cassadine, Ginger Minj and Kylie Sonique Love while the accompanying hardcover book Trinity Ruins Christmas: The Chronicles Of Sister Mary Kuntz will feature original illustrations and story co-written by Trinity and Jason Michael Snow. 

Trinity Ruins Christmas: The Chronicles of Sister Mary Kuntz is based on “A Christmas Carol” told through the drag lens of Trinity The Tuck, featuring characters (Luci (the Devil), Sister Mary Kuntz, and more) that she popularized on Drag Race. “I’ve always loved illustrated stories, and I’ve wanted to create one for a long time, this is a major twist on the holiday classic, “A Christmas Carol”. There are definitely similarities with Trinity & Scrooge, but this drag story has many twists and turns.” states Trinity

Both the album and book (and other delights) will be available November 17 on all digital platforms and through Trinity’s merch store . Only 200 copies of the book will be available so be sure to snatch yours up as quickly as possible.

Willam is back with an all-new episode of Beatdown. This time, in her sights, are a new age infomercial starring Kris Jenner, COPS in Reno, drag in the rain, and Heidi and Jimbo’s vacation shenanigans at Willam’s Palm Springs rental.  

Kerri Colby is the latest queen to chat with Maddy Morphosis on “Give it to Me Straight.”

In honor of the new Sofia Coppola film Priscilla (which I can’t wait to see) Trixie Mattel swaps her trademark blonde locks for a brunette look as she transforms into 1960s-era Priscilla Presley.

A few weeks ago, Bob and Monét started a lengthy discussion about every single (US) Ru Girl on “Sibling Rivalry.” The conversation continues with part 3.

But that’s not all – in this candid conversation, the three friends delve into the intricate dynamics of their friendship, spilling secrets and stories about each other that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
