RuPaul's Drag Race season 11


The eleventh season of RuPaul's Drag Race aired on VH1 from February 28, 2019, to May 30, 2019. The cast featured fourteen new queens and one returning queen; at the time of its premiere, Season 11 featured the largest cast of the franchise, with fifteen queens, though this was later surpassed by Season 15, which featured sixteen contestants. The queens were revealed during a livestream, hosted by Season 10 winner Aquaria and figure skater Adam Rippon, on January 24, 2019.
The winner of the eleventh season of RuPaul's Drag Race was Yvie Oddly, with Brooke Lynn Hytes being the runner-up and Nina West crowned as Miss Congeniality. Drag Race Season 10's first-eliminated contestant, Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, returned to the competition, by popular demand, being the first to enter the workroom and ultimately placing fifth.
