13 Jiggly Caliente

Since being on season 4 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, Jiggly Caliente has been featured on TV shows like Search Party and Broad City. More recently, Bianca Castro (out-of-drag Jiggly) has also landed a recurring role as Veronica Ferocity on Pose.

Aside from her TV credits, Jiggly Caliente is still working hard as a professional drag performer, traveling across the country to perform at different events. During the coronavirus pandemic, Jiggly also teamed up with Drag Race alum Peppermint, Dusty Ray Bottoms, and Scarlet Envy to host Drag Date, a charity event intended to raise funds for the LGBTQIA+ community.

12 Latrice Royale

Season 4 Miss Congeniality winner Latrice Royale has been a busy queen as of late. In 2018, Latrice got married to her longtime boyfriend Timothy. Then, the queen came back to the Drag Race franchise in 2019 to compete on All Stars 4, where she placed fifth.

Latrice Royale kicked off 2020 being prominently featured alongside RuPaul on Netflix’s AJ and the Queen. Then, the queen performed on PEG’s first-ever Digital Drag Fest, which was put together in response to all the tours and shows cancellations that took place due to the threat of COVID-19.

11 DiDa Ritz

DiDa Ritz entered the Drag Race history books with her lip-sync performance to “This Will Be (An Everlasting Love),” which is still regarded as one of the series’ best lip syncs of all time. In 2020, DiDa is still a hardworking and fierce drag entertainer that can be regularly seen performing live in Chicago.

During a recent interview with The Tea podcast, DiDa Ritz did not close the doors when asked about whether she would return to compete on All-Stars. This means that fans can certainly expect to see this great queen back on TV at some point in the future.

10 Alisa Summers

After falling short during the post-apocalyptic design challenge, Alisa Summers became the first eliminated queen from RuPaul’s Drag Race season 4. As of late, Alisa works as a professional drag queen in the Tampa Bay, FL area – booking performing and hosting gigs in local clubs.

While there have been no reports of Alisa Summers returning to the Drag Race franchise, one can never rule out the possibility of this queen competing on All-Stars at some point in time. Nonetheless, Alisa remains a fierce queen who is working hard on her career.

9 Willam

Willam has been up to a lot since being disqualified from season 4 of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Notable updates include her role in 2018’s A Star Is Born (directed by Bradley Cooper and starring Lady Gaga), her several appearances on TV, and her ongoing Race Chaser podcast with Alaska.

In 2019, Willam launched her own makeup brand, which is called Coverboy. That same year, it was also announced that Willam was going to host a fashion review talk show called Fashion’s a Drag on the Quibi streaming service. However, the show has yet to premiere in 2020.

8 Lashauwn Beyond

Lashauwn Beyond is most often remembered by the Drag Race fans as the queen responsible for the iconic “this isn’t RuPaul’s Best Friend Race” quote. However, since her time on season 4, Lashauwn has become one of the most prominent and successful costume designers in the industry, making clothes for many Drag Race contestants to wear on and off the show.

The scope of Lashauwn Beyond’s talents in fashion design has also expanded to non-drag performers. Overall, it is clear that Lashauwn has found a great deal of success behind the scenes, and has consequently focused her time and attention to running those operations.

7 Madame LaQueer

Since her time on season 4, Madame LaQueer has continued to work hard as a drag entertainer. The queen has been known to attend various DragCon events and even Drag Race finale tapings. As of late, Madame also got together with her sisters for a special season 4 reunion that was live-streamed digitally.

It is clear that Madame LaQueer is still a fierce queen in 2020 who is putting in the work. Hopefully, fans will be able to see Madame back on TV at some point in the future.

6 Chad Michaels

Season 4 just wasn’t Chad Michael’s to win, but that didn’t mean that this wasn’t a winner who deserved her own crown. Since winning the first-ever RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars, Chad has been brought along with RuPaul for a variety of projects, which included a prominent guest spot on AJ and the Queen. The queen has also been busy with commitments that relate to All-Stars, such as coming back to the series crown a new winner.

All in all, the world’s #1 Cher impersonator is still a booked and busy drag entertainer who travels the country performing at different events.

5 Milan

Since competing on RuPaul’s Drag Race, Milan has seemingly put drag on hold, changing all social media accounts to Dwayne Cooper (real name) and working as a professional actor who isn’t necessarily in drag.

In 2015, Dwayne Cooper landed an appearance on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. However, unfortunately, that feature went uncredited. As of late, Dwayne has focused his time and energy on The Doo Wop Project – a five-man band that celebrates the doo-wop musical genre within R&B.

4 Phi Phi O’Hara

Phi Phi O’Hara struggled with the classification of “Drag Race villain” for many years. Nowadays, however, Phi Phi has embraced that this narrative was part of her career, and has even thrown season 4 reunion events in 2020.

It is safe to say that there is no longer a feud between Phi Phi O’Hara and Sharon Needles, unless it serves as fodder for them to joke with each other. In recent times, Phi Phi has begun to use real name Jaremi Carey and has rebranded as a transformation artist that does drag, cosplay, among other things.

3 Kenya Michaels

The drag entertainer once known as Kenya Michaels has since abandoned that career. Instead, out-of-drag Kenya Olivera has focused on her transition and on her career as a fashion designer in Puerto Rico.

Among her various accomplishments, Kenya Olivera has launched her very own clothing brand, which is called Flamingoes Swimwear. The clothing line primarily focuses on bikinis and swim trunks, but also includes clothes that one would wear to the beach or to the pool.

2 The Princess

It is fair to say that The Princess was a bit misunderstood on Drag Race, but it is great to see that this hasn’t stopped her from being an incredibly successful drag entertainer. In fact, The Princess is the current host and emcee at Play Nashville, which is widely regarded as one of the best and most successful LGBTQ+ venues in the country.

Hopefully, The Princess’s time will come to return to TV and compete on All-Stars for a second chance.

1 Sharon Needles

Sharon Needles steamrolled the competition on season 4 RuPaul’s Drag Race, becoming the first contestant in history to win 4 maxi challenges during the same season. Since winning that season, Sharon has released several studio albums, singles, and EPs. The queen’s latest release was 2019’s Spoopy.

In recent years, Sharon Needles has dedicated a good portion of her year to perform internationally with the Werq The World Tour. During the coronavirus pandemic, Sharon also took part in most of the digital events that featured drag performers.
