This morning, Entertainment Weekly ru-vealed the opening scene for this Thursday’s premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Drag All Stars 3. The exclusive video showed the two previous All Stars winners, Chad Michaels and Alaska, donning the characteristic red cloaks and white bonnets from Hulu’s hit drama The Handmaid’s Tale.
“Hey, kitty girl. Blessed weather we’re having today,” Michaels, winner of the first season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, comments to season 2 champion Alaska as they sulk down the sidewalk.
“Indeed. Can you believe it’s already All Stars 3? Do you think there will be lots of twists, turns, shocks, and surprises this season?” Alaska asks.
Michaels quickly responds: “Oh, bitch!”
“Chad, the Drag Race Hall of Fame really isn’t what I thought it was going to be,” Alaska says as emergency sirens sound around them. “You look really nice in red, though. It’s your color.”
The hilarious take on The Handmaid’s Tale isn’t the only delicious morsel of content VH1 released in anticipation of the new All Stars season. In the week leading up to the premiere of All Stars 3, showrunners have ru-vealed a slew of information about the upcoming season, including all of the guest judges who will join RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, and Ross Matthews.
