In a recent episode of her TV show Queerpiphany, fellow drag queen Tayce hosts Bianca del Rio and asks if the legendary queen would ever return to the Drag Race franchise.
“Obviously there has been an all winners season out. You being a prestigious winner, do you think or would you want to ever go back?”
In response, Bianca said, “OK, well, I’ll give you this bit of information. The last all-winners season, I got a call, and they said, ‘Would you be interested in doing it?’

“As we were chatting about it, I said, ‘Well, what’s the format?’ and they basically explained the format and all was the same, with the exception of no one being eliminated. And I thought, ‘Do I want to do this?’ And I thought, ‘Mmm, not really.’”
Bianca originally competed on RuPaul’s Drag Race season 6 and ultimately won the title of Next Drag Race Superstar. The charismatic queen was an instant fan favorite among that season’s contestants as she delivered some of the franchise's most iconic one-liners.
Since her time on Drag Race, Bianca has dipped her toes into acting, appearing in the film Hurricane Bianca and its sequels. She also acted in the West End musical Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.
After Bianca’s episode aired, fans were very vocal about wanting Del Rio to return to the show.
“She better do the next one. It’s 12 episodes of publicity. There’s no good reason not to do it even if you don’t win,” said one TikTok user.
Another X comment on the video believes Bianca did it once and should move on to other outlets: “I don't know if the format works for Bianca. She doesn’t need to go back. She lived the experience once, and that’s it for her.”
