RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner The Vivienne to compete in all-winners series

The UK's first Drag Race winner The Vivienne is set to compete in an all-winners season airing May 20.

RuPaul's Drag Race is back with what could be its biggest season ever. Hot on the heels of season 14, winners from previous seasons will be back to battle it out for the title of Drag Superstar in All Stars 7. Amongst the US queens is the first ever UK and Scouse winner, The Vivienne.

Other returning queens include Raja, Jinkx Monsoon, Yvie Oddly and Jaida Essence Hall. Rounding out the cast is Monet X Change, Trinity The Tuck and Shea Couleé.

The official RuPaul's Drag Race Instagram account shared promotional images teasing the upcoming series. The caption read: "This season will be nothing short of LEGENDARY #AllStars7 starts streaming MAY 20 on #ParamountPlus"

During her season back in 2019, The Vivienne took home multiple wins including runway, sewing and Snatch Game, grabbing a total of three RuPeter Badges. The world-renowned Cher impersonator said she was "so excited" to compete in the US version as she can't wait to get her hands on a cash prize.

She added: "I'm so excited to be back now I have the opportunity to win actual cold hard cash. I think I'm the winner of winners because I think I'm a good all-rounder. I've got a kind of Americanised aesthetic but also the British camp humour and I look fabulous while I'm doing it. So yeah, give me the crown of crowns."

Other winners previously won £100,000 on their original seasons but rumours online say the cash prize has been upped to £250,000 with tens of thousands to be won every week. The Vivienne had to settle for badges during her season as the BBC doesn't allow cash prizes to be won on their competition shows.

Fans of the show will be able to tune in May 20 via Paramount Plus.
