RuPaul’s Drag Race star Manila Luzon is set to host a brand new drag race show.
Drag Den Philippines will be the first Filipino drag queen competition TV series, with the show’s format yet to be revealed. Posting on social media, an account associated with the show described Luzon as “fierce and fabulous”.
Luzon shared the announcement on Instagram too, describing the show as “major” alongside a first-look image of the project.

“It’s time to lace up, Pilipinas! You wanted a drag cartel? We heard you, and we’re making it MAJOR! The first ever drag reality show in the Philippines is finally here, and I’m running the show! See you soon at @DragDenPH,” Luzon’s caption reads.
Drag Den Philippines is not affiliated with the RuPaul franchise or its production company.
Luzon first appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race in 2011 when taking part in the show’s third season as a contestant, and later returned to the franchise to appear on RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars as a contestant during season one and season four. Luzon was a fan favourite thanks to the queen’s acting skills and bold fashion choices.
