The fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars was announced by VH1 on August 19, 2019. [1]

Contents

On February 20, 2020, the show's official Twitter account announced the season premiere date of June 5, 2020, on Showtime. [2] Following the cast announcement on May 8, 2020, producers announced that the show would instead air on VH1 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused "various scheduling and programming adjustments". [3] [4]

The official trailer announced a change in the elimination rules: Unlike seasons 2, 3, and 4 of All Stars, only a single challenge winner is named each week. The winning queen then lip syncs for her legacy against a guest Lip Sync Assassin from a previous season. If the challenge winner wins the lip sync, she gains the power to eliminate one of the queens in the bottom and win a $10,000 prize. If the Assassin wins, the eliminated queen is determined after a majority vote by the rest of the contestants, and the $10,000 prize rolls over to further episodes until a contestant wins the lip sync.

The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars received a one-year supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills Cosmetics and a cash prize of $100,000. All Stars 5 was the first All Stars season since All Stars 1 to have an Untucked aftershow. Shea Couleé was declared the winner, with Jujubee and Miz Cracker named runners-up.

Jujubee later on competed on RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs the World, placing 3rd alongside with Baga Chipz. Shea Couleé later competed on the seventh season of All Stars, the first all-winners season of Drag Race , placing 3rd alongside with Trinity The Tuck
