‘RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10': Meet the Cast of 18 Queens

Yahoo23-04-2025
Start your engines, because the biggest race in 'Drag Race' herstory is about to begin when 'RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars' Season 10 premieres May 9 on Paramount+.
To mark the milestone moment, RuPaul has invited a staggering 18 fan-favorite former contestants to partake in the franchise's first-ever Tournament of All Stars. Basically, the queens will be divided into three groups of six, where they will compete for points within their own brackets in order to reach the Top 9 semi-finals and eventually the grand finale's lip sync smackdown for the crown.
As far as statistics go, Season 14 has the most representation this time around, with six of those queens battling it out for redemption. Plus, there's even one representative from Season 17, which only just ended last week, and three returning All Stars.
The winner will receive $200,000 and a coveted spot in the Drag Race Hall of Fame. Meet the full cast, below:
AjaSeason 9 (9th), All Stars 3 (7th)'Ayo, sis — Aja is in the building! Part Harajuku, part hood, all attitude. This Brooklyn-bred banjee queen from Season 9 and All Stars 3 is back with a fast tongue, sickening vogue moves, and some unfinished business. She's here to cement her legacy — and snatch that crown.'
BoscoSeason 14 (3rd, tie), RPDR Live Untucked'Seattle's demon queen is back — with a monster appetite for the crown! Bosco was saved from elimination by a golden chocolate bar in Season 14 and clawed her way to the Finale. Now, this burlesque beauty is armed with cutting-edge fashion and razor-sharp wit and she's ready to slice through the competition!'
Deja SkyeSeason 14 (6th, tie)'Season 14's pastel princess is back, bringing that beautiful mug, a bright sense of humor and a personality as big as her talent. She single-handedly saved her season's Snatch Game — Yay-yuh! Now, the sky's the limit for DeJa in this competition, okayyyy!'
Irene the AlienSeason 15 (16th)'Greetings, earthlings! Irene the Alien has landed from Seattle, ready to disrupt the competition. Her time on Season 15 was short, but she made a lasting impact. This go around, her far-out looks and flair for the otherwordly will show the judges she's no one-episode wonder!'
Olivia LuxSeason 13 (5th)'The delightful diva with the megawatt smile is back for the crown! Olivia Lux lit up Season 13, and now she shines even brighter. A trained musician and proud member of the Miyake-Mugler ballroom house, she's bringing even more star power to the Mainstage. And this time? She's not playing nice.'
PhoenixSeason 3 (12th)'Phoenix rises from the ashes of Season 3 — bigger, bolder and ready to burn up her fellow queens.

JorgeousSeason 14 (6th, tie), All Stars 9'It's getting muggy in here! Hellotis, it's your girl, Jorgeous! Fresh off All Stars 9, this pint-sized diva from Season 14 is back to gag the judges with her electrifying performances and remind the world that she was born to do drag. Spicy, stunning and ready to slay — she's living proof that dynamite comes in small packages!'
Kerri ColbySeason 14 (9th)'A beautiful baddie straight from the doll factory, Kerri Colby is serving face, body and hair for the ages. Repping the legendary House of Colby, the confessional queen of Season 14 has business to attend to — starting with getting her puss-perfect portrait in the Drag Race Hall of Fame.'
Lydia B KollinsSeason 17 (7th)'Fresh off Season 17, spooky kooky Lydia B Kollins is making a U-turn back into the werkroom to show she's been an All Star all along! Her irreverent drag and stamped mug took her far last season, but now this butthole is ready to go all the way — and she's itching for the crown. No ointment for that!'
Mistress Isabelle BrooksSeason 15 (3rd, tie)'The heavyweight champ of Season 15 is back in the ring, ready to knock out the competition! This larger-than-life Houston diva pulls no punches when it comes to drag pageantry — and she lives to stir the pot. With Mistress, there are no safe words, no mercy and zero tolerance for drag delusion… Get ready to submit.'
Nicole Paige BrooksSeason 2 (11th)'Hey y'all, it's Nicole Paige Brooks from Atlanta, Georgia! Fifteen years after her Season 2 debut, this veteran is back to show the children how it's done. And, yes, her pronouns are 'legend' and 'icon!''
Tina BurnerSeason 13 (7th)'Hell yeah! New York's premier camp comedy queen, Tina Burner, is back to turn it and burn it! After blazing through Season 13, this veteran diva is taking a pit stop from her tours and residencies to set the competition aflame. And yes, she's still on fire!'
Acid BettySeason 8 (8th)'Let the acid trip begin! Season 8's unapologetic iconoclast Acid Betty returns to the competition to kick ass and take names. She's a gifted visual artist whose punk rock vibes and unfiltered attitude stood out in the workroom and on the Mainstage, making her a hardcore contender for the crown.'
Alyssa HunterSeason 14 (13th)'It's officially hunting season, because the trade of Season 14, Alyssa Hunter, is here! Fellow contestants better watch out — you might end up as prey for this polished pageant queen, because this Puerto Rican knockout has her sights set on All Stars glory!'
Cynthia Lee FontaineSeason 8 (10th), Season 9 (1oth)'It's time to get Cucu! The beloved queen of Seasons 8 and 9 is back! This Puerto Rican singer, cancer survivor and activist from Texas has the heart of a champion and a zany charm that'll tickle your funny bone. ¡Prepárate para enamorarte de nuevo!'
Daya BettySeason 14 (3rd, tie)'The statuesque punk rock powerhouse of Season 14 is back! After an early elimination, Daya Betty battled her way to the Grand Finale, proving she's the ultimate comeback kid. Bold, outspoken and relentless — she's hungry for the crown and willing to go all the way.'
DenaliSeason 13 (8th)'Drag's gold medal bitch has entered the tournament! Denali is an ice-skating athlete-turned-lip sync assassin, and she's trained hard for the Olympics of Drag. Queens beware — she just might triple lutz and leave the other queens skating on thin ice!'
Ginger MinjSeason 7 (2nd, tie), All Stars 2 (8th), All Stars 6 (2nd, tie)'Ribbit-Ribbit. The glamour toad and southern-fried queen of sass, Ginger Minj, is back to get this competition cooking! This campy powerhouse from Season 7, All Stars 2 and 6 has been wowing fans for years on tours, in Vegas, in films and TV projects — and she's a cookbook author! She's now ready for the next chapter in her story — becoming a winner, baby!'

Star Trek's 60th anniversary to be celebrated with waves of toys

For its 60th anniversary, the Star Trek franchise is going where it's never gone before – in terms of action figures. The groundbreaking original TV series debuted on NBC back on Sept. 8, 1966, spawning a fleet of subsequent movie and TV enterprises, including "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds," currently in its third season on Paramount+, and the in-production "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy," set to arrive on Paramount+ in 2026. With the space franchise's upcoming 60th anniversary looming, fans will likely engage in a massive celebration. Collectors already have plenty to get excited about. The first wave of figures, expected to be due later this year, includes characters never made available as action figures before, among them Capt. Jellico ("Star Trek: Prodigy"), Peter Preston from "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," and Valkris, a female Klingon from "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock". The Nacelle Company, perhaps best known for TV specials such as "Kevin Hart's Guide to Black History" and "Down to Earth with Zac Efron" (both on Netflix), acquired the rights to market Star Trek playsets and accessories in 2024. The company has already announced that a host of action figures is in the works. Anniversary cruise: 'Star Trek' cruise will celebrate show's 60th birthday with William Shatner and more stars Those figures, which are one-twelfth size (roughly six or seven inches tall) can be pre-ordered now (priced individually at $28.99), will be followed by three additional waves: The arrival of a new line of Star Trek action figures "indicates how meaningful, and relevant, this series is, even 60 years later. And that makes me very proud," said Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry, son of the late Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry and CEO of Roddenberry Entertainment, in a statement to USA TODAY. "The Original Series holds a special place in the history of Star Trek, in the history of science fiction, and in the history of television," Roddenberry said. "I am thrilled to see it being honored in conjunction with Star Trek's 60th." Roddenberry wasn't ready to share other aspects of the 60th anniversary just yet. "But rest assured it's Roddenberry's intention to provide Trek fans the opportunity to be part of the celebration and engage in the Trek community," added Roddenberry, who suggested Trekkies follow the brand on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube. Nacelle CEO and founder Brian Volk-Weiss comes by his interest in Star Trek toys honestly, as the owner of a collection of more than 5,000 toys. He chose the company's name based on a word for the housing of a starship's warp engines. "I'm a lifelong Star Trek toy collector and a lifelong fan," Volk-Weiss told USA TODAY. When meeting with Paramount to secure the licensing, Volk-Weiss said he told the studio he planned to cater to Trekkies who want action figures beyond the obvious characters, such as Kirk and Picard. "Where's Captain Garrett? Where's Captain Jellico? Where is Peter Preston?" he said. "That was my pitch. …. What I basically said was, 'I believe the base of the Star Trek community is strong enough to give them what they want – and Valkris is the greatest example – even if it's a character that was on screen for 81 seconds, 35 years ago.'" The company's plan for releasing action figures is to alternate waves of figures who commanded a starship bridge with waves of assorted characters. When Nacelle announced it would be releasing Star Trek toys, it included an email address in the news release encouraging fans to chime in on figures they would like to see. Decisions on which ones to produce were "absolutely 100% influenced by that," Volk-Weiss said. Nacelle has announced a total of four waves of action figures to "assure the community this is not going to be a two-wave line," Volk-Weiss said, adding that "we have to make everybody feel confident we're going to go the distance." The toys, which are made in China, would fall under President Trump's unsettled tariff policy. But Volk-Weiss said the company plans to "keep everything on schedule and keep the prices locked," with Nacelle's other divisions helping to manage any impact on the profit margins. "My goal is to make this the most successful Star Trek (toy) line ever or at least tie Playmates from their original '90s run," Volk-Weiss said. "So if I want to do that, I can't raise my prices and I can't slow anything down because keeping the trust of the community – this sounds cheesy, but it's true – if we lose (that), the line will fail." Wave One is available for pre-order and is expected to ship out this fall. Available for $28.99 each; $225 for a bundle of all eight figures: Watch: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Wave Two figures, announced in March 2025 at WonderCon in Anaheim, California, will be available for pre-order soon and released in 2026: Wave Three figures, which features the "Star Trek" original series cast in their duty uniforms and a 60th anniversary surprise two-pack of unannounced characters, was made public in July at the San Diego Comic-Con and will be available for pre-order soon and released in 2026: Wave Four figures, also announced in July at the San Diego Comic-Con, will be going on sale in mid-to-late 2026: Mike Snider is a national trending news reporter for USA TODAY.
