RuPaul’s Drag Race Global All Stars introduced viewers to 12 sickening queens from different countries competing for a spot in the Drag Racing Hall of Fame’s International Pavilion – culminating with Top 4 finalists Alyssa Edwards, Nehellenia, Kitty Scott-Claus and Kween Kong in sync labial for the crown and Alyssa Edwards’ iconic coronation.

After the 4 finalists gave their all to prove that they deserved to win this season, Mama Ru crowned the Drag racing season 5 and All Stars 2 formerly of Mesquite, Texas as the first ever winner of All the world stars.

My intentions during my journey through the series were never to hurt or upset anyone. It hurts me to feel misunderstood in the moments seen, because I was truly delivering the best version of myself that I was. could be both good and bad at that time.

“Lessons were learned and boundaries were created moving forward,” she explained. “I left filming this season a year ago, so proud of everything I did and how I represented my communities and my countries that I have stood up for my entire career.

Kween concluded this post with the following conclusion:

This moving message from Kween Kong comes after new drama involving Nehellenia and Vanity Vain. All things considered, Drag racing fans were curious to hear what Kween would say once the dust settled, and it warms our hearts to see the positives she takes with her as this Global chapter of his career — which is going nowhere, trust and believe! – is coming to an end.

Although she is not known as an “extremely online” queen within the Drag racing franchise, Alyssa Edwards quickly reacted to Kween’s post, writing in the comments:

“I am beyond grateful to have the chance to work alongside you, to share laughs, in-depth conversations, gym sessions and stories of family and life journey. These moments mean so much to me. You are a fierce queen with a heart is good, and while some may not completely understand your drive to overcome everything that has held you back or broken you in life, (it) will one day be part of your story, (that) will inspire another human. don’t just weather this storm, lady, DANCE in it We all learn to live and live to learn (heart emoji, I’m always here for you).
