"From the very first episode, viewers see that these queens are here to share what drag truly means to them. It's an emotional journey that reveals their struggles, triumphs, and untold stories."
"Pageant Queens' tagline is 'it's not a race-it's a revolution.' The queens will work together to design a pageant of their own to compete in, deciding on judges and scoring metrics."
RuPaul's Drag Race has transformed drag into a global phenomenon, but drag competition has deep roots in the pageant scene, serving as a haven for the queer community. A new docuseries, Pageant Queens: Our Story Behind the Crown, aims to reconnect drag to its pageant origins. Ten drag legends will live together in a mansion, competing for a $50,000 prize without eliminations or gimmicks. They will collaboratively design their own pageant, focusing on personal stories and the true meaning of drag.
