A new queen has entered the Drag Race Hall of Fame after the riveting final episode of All-Stars. Here's all the tea on the finale of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 9.
The queens who made the top three were Roxxxy Andrews, Angeria Paris VanMicheals and Vanessa Vanjie Mateo lip-synced for the crown to Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation.”
Ultimately, Angeria was named the winner of Season 9 as she entered the Drag Race Hall of Fame.
Angeria's victory earned her a crown and scepter, and she earned a $200,000 donation to the charity she represented, the National Black Justice Coalition.
Having previously won $31,500 for the NBJC through her performance all season long, Angeria's winning run on All Stars 9 amounted to a total donation of $231,500 to the organization.
“From the country to the silver screen, I’m officially the All-Stars queen!” she exclaimed after Kylie Sonique Love, All-Stars season 6 winner, presented her with the crown and scepter.
Angeria made her “Drag Race” debut on season 14 and was an instant fan favorite.
“If you would’ve told me when I was a little Black boy growing up in Sparta, that I would grow up to be a strong, glamorous drag queen superstar, honey, and win $200,000 for the National Black Justice Coalition, an organization that fights to empower Black queer people who are just like me, I would not have believed it,” she said. “I’m proud of myself.”
The finale episode was made even more memorable after Vice President Kamala Harris made a special guest appearance alongside Jamal Sims, Lance Bass, Leslie Jones, and Cheyenne Jackson. Harris sent an important message to viewers, encouraging viewers to continue to fight back against attacks on the LGBTQ+ community’s rights.
The Double Diamond was awarded to Nina West. The queens voted to give her the special prize that doubled the Benefactress Badges she'd earned throughout the season.
Additionally, runner-ups, Vanjie and Roxxxy each received $25,000 for their charities, the ASPCA and Miracle of Love, respectively.
