It’s aboot time! Following a long-awaited announcement on Wednesday, we finally know which nine queens will be heading (or remaining) north for Season 2 of Canada’s Drag Race: Canada Vs. the World — nearly two years after Ra’Jah O’Hara was crowned the winner of Season 1
Let’s start with the three queens representing the host country: Lemon, who placed fifth in the first season of Canada’s Drag Race, before returning for Season 1 of UK Vs. the World and finishing in ninth; Miss Fiercalicious, who narrowly missed making the top two in Canada’s Drag Race Season 3; and Tynomi Banks, who’s back with a vengeance after finishing Canada’s Drag Race Season 1 in ninth place.
And it’s nothing but legends from the United States: Alexis Mateo, who “Bam!”d her way into our hearts in Season 3 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, eventually returning for All Stars 1 and All Stars 5; Eureka O’Hara, who was sidelined by an injury in Drag Race Season 9, then returned to crush Season 10 and All Stars 6; and Kennedy Davenport, who left an unforgettable impression on viewers in Drag Race Season 7 and All Stars 3.
The cast also includes two UK queens Cheryl Hole (Drag Race UK Season 1 and UK Vs. the World Season 1) and Le Fil (UK Season 4), as well as French queen La Kahena (Drag Race France Season 1).
Brooke Lynn Hytes will return to judge the season, joined once again by Brad Goreski and Traci Melchor. The new season premieres Friday, July 19 on WOW Presents Plus in the States, on Crave in Canada and on BBC Three in the UK.
Read on for a sneak peek of the nine returning queens, arranged in alphabetical order, then drop a comment with your early thoughts. Who are you already rooting for?

Eureka… again…? Ugh.
Almost all of these queens have been back twice or three times now. Can they please pick queens that have never done all stars yet. There’s so many queens who haven’t been on yet.
I think Canada vs the World has had a hard time attracting queens. Several queens have openly said they’ve turned it down because, if they ever come back, they want to be judged by RuPaul. There’s no one here I dislike, but I agree I don’t need to see Eureka, Alexis, Cheryl and Lemon again. Personally, I’m rooting for Tynomi who was sent home way too early on Canada season 1.
I’m a Lemon fan, so I’m ok with her. But I’m well done with Eureka……
Agreed. Though I love them I’m just happy Mayhem and Jujubee were not cast.
Fun cast, but I wish more countries were involved. All we have is Canada, UK, US and France. The show barely earns its “versus the world” title.
