The competition series also ups its cash prize to $200,000 for the new season on MTV, with a promo that pays homage to the season 1 cast reveal from 2009.

RuPaul's Drag Race has set its largest cast ever at (a sensible) 16 queens set to enter the Werk Room for season 15.

Among the new queens — revealed Tuesday in a livestream event hosted by reigning champion Willow Pill — are an aspiring pop star, a New York City theater pro, a pair of twin TikTok superstars, and an esteemed Miss Continental pageant winner who's also the mother of season 14 breakout Kerri Colby. Each of the queens posed for a promo picture with an aesthetic that paid tribute to the season 1 cast reveal that dropped via Logo all the way back in 2009.

Watch the video to see the cast.

Following a previously announced network shift from VH1 to MTV, the Emmy-winning World of Wonder-produced competition series' latest installment will also feature the largest prize in regular Drag Race her-story, with the queen who outlasts her season 15 sisters set to receive $200,000 — up from season 14's $150,000 pot, and double that of what winning queens have received since season 4.

In addition to the MTV move, the Drag Race franchise announced Monday that a Global All Stars season was in the works for the Paramount+ streaming service, alongside new international spin-offs in Brazil, Mexico, and Germany.

RuPaul's Drag Race season 15 premieres Friday, Jan. 6 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on MTV, followed immediately by new episodes of Untucked. See the full cast of queens.
