"RuPaul's Drag Race" is a reality show in which a group of talented drag queens compete in challenges to impress host RuPaul, the world's most famous drag queen, to win a cash prize along with a crown and the title of America's Next Drag Superstar. Each episode consists of a main challenge, usually some form of performance or fashion design -- sometimes both. The queens then participate in a themed runway show, where one is declared the winner of that week, while two others are announced to be up for elimination. The bottom two must then compete to stay on the show with a lip-sync for their lives.

Wigs fly off as the queens return to discuss the drama of the season.

The queens must face their worst fear, a naked runway; guest judge Kathy Griffin, new permanent judges Carson Kressley and Ross Mathews.

The queens are challenged to produce a pre-flight safety video for the first airline run by drag queens; guest judges Olivia Newton-John and Jordin Sparks.

The queens "Hamlet it up" in two twisted Shakespeare classics; guest judges Kat Dennings and Spice Girl Mel B.
