COOOK 76,406 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 So I was wondering when will we finally get AS5, since we already know it's been done, same as S12 so I found this Drag Race fan wiki page: https://rupaulsdragrace.fandom.com/wiki/RuPaul's_Drag_Race_All_Stars_(Season_5) while there hasn't been any official confirmation, it says its premiere will be Saturday June 6, 2020. I then found this article which says that Drag Race fans think AS5 is being held hostage because of the widespread Drag Race burnout complaints. https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2020/01/02/rupaul-drag-race-all-stars-5-release-date-twitter-viral-fan-reaction/ Thoughts?

gagzus 15,772 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I won’t do spoilers since I know pretty much everything bar who wins (although if you’re in the know it’s obvious who’s gonna win) but it was originally meant to air in late December then finish in time for S12 airing from the end of February but after business stuff with Viacom they’ve had to rearrange it. That’s why most of the cast are at DragConUK because they were contractually obligated it since we were supposed to be mid season almost by now. It’s nothing to do with the burnout thing since we’ll be getting S12 in February still. I’m very excited, plus I already have theories about All Stars 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I saw a Queen confirmed I thought about this. I also heard on Trinity's podcast that a AS5-rumored Queen can't go to the premiere party of AJ and the Queen because que has a quote "compromise" she has to attend to, even though she appears on it. 7 minutes ago, gagzus said: It’s nothing to do with the burnout thing since we’ll be getting S12 in February still. So if S12 ends, say, in May... then AS5... ugh idk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOOK 76,406 Posted January 7, 2020 Author Share Posted January 7, 2020 @gagzus also, this still haunts me whenever I see something AS5 related: Don't want any spoilers but whatever happened could also be a reason for delaying its release? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if S12 ends, say, in May... then AS5... ugh idk I won’t say who’s on but pretty much the entire cast is at DCUK. The schedule as far as I know is S12 first, because the tradition is they always have the semi-final air before DragCon LA weekend in May, then film the final during the beginning of the week so the whole cast and alumni are in LA for the taping and air it at the end of the week. AS5 still needs their promos filmed (S12’s was done the week before Xmas) and is supposedly gonna happen in April so they can announce the premiere during the end of the main season. Roughly a month in advance. Celeb Drag Race (basically Drag U season 3) is then gonna air after AS, then DRUK will air after that. AS6 is supposedly getting filmed in May this year, DRUK2 is supposedly filming earlier around March time and S13 in July. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was in response to some percentage of fans being “ungrateful” because of the drag race burnout stuff. But I won’t spoil anything for you because an explanation of something would basically be spoilers haha 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really cant trust all the gays with information It’s been this way ever since S7 sadly, WoW employees leak stuff or tell their gay friends in Weho, queens on the show tell their friends and stuff gets out etc but it’s always fun to compare it since gays love to overexaggerate I remember when the leaks for AS4 for MONTHS were that Val eliminated Farrah then Farrah came back and eliminated Val and Farrah ended up doing well the rest of the season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say it’s safe to dip into Reddit because the AS5 stuff is pretty predictable bar the new twist Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hoping they’d film AS6 after S12 or S13 so we could get (no offense to any other seasons) an ALL-STAR Cast also you have theories about AS6... like? Personally I want a villain cast with Carmen, Phiphs’, Vixen, Courtney, and Willam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipz 1,197 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Please, SCRAP AS5 and film it after S12. There no all stars in AS5. Just milking it to the max. AS2 was the real thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I want a villain cast with Carmen, Phiphs’, Vixen, Courtney, and Willam They traditionally film All Stars before a season and it’s been like that since All Stars 2. Remember the days when we had one season a year then after they filmed All Stars 2 between 8-9 we suddenly got tons of content I remember the LONG ass wait for season 8 because that’s when they settled into their schedules properly. It was almost a year and a half between 7-8 now we have a new season almost after every one finishes. Also about the villain stuff I can categorically say Willam and Courtney will never be on, and tbh neither will Vixen or Carmen (she doesn’t consider herself a drag queen anymore anyway) maybe if Ru retires and Alaska deservedly takes his place she’ll have them on And my theories are that it’s the long awaited Winners season because there’s evidence that seems like weird co-incidences to suggest so. Tyra suddenly coming back into the Drag Race sphere to clean up her rep after rumours earlier this year that WoW wanted her for a project (everyone assumes a WoW Presents thing but I’m sure it’s a winner’s season) plus Yvie and BeBe were both headlining DragFest here in the UK in May (around the time they shoot All Stars) and both cancelled FIVE MONTHS in advance, which seems realistic for a winners season since they’re all booked and busy, so it’s hard to get them together within a two week time frame like a traditional All Stars, the reason KlubKids gave for the cancellation was because they had “Tv commitments” and they’re infamously petty for leaking who’s on All Stars when cast members cancel gigs in the U.K. by saying they cancelled for Tv reasons. They did it to Latrice and Naomi during AS4. So it’s either major coincidence or it’s finally happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
