RuPaul was not joking when she sang, “Drag is all over the world. It’s a phenomenon.”
World of Wonder, the production company behind RuPaul’s Drag Race, just announced a bevy of new shows coming to WOW Presents+ in 2023. There will be no shortage of drag on our screens this year. The announcements come just a few days after the premiere of Season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars premiered, which was just a couple of weeks after Season 15 of Drag Race concluded. You’re literally going to need to start a spreadsheet to keep up with all of this.
The biggest news coming from World of Wonder’s slate of new programming was the long-awaited announcement of Drag Race Mexico. Season 9’s Valentina has been tapped to host the show alongside Lolita Banana, who previously competed on Drag Race France. Valentina has come a long way from the humiliating “maskgate” lipsync of Season 9.
For months, rumors circled the depths of Drag Race Reddit that Valentina would be returning to host Drag Race Mexico. Now, they’ve made it official and teased the glamorous first look at the hosts.
Of course, RuPaul and World of Wonder aren’t stopping at Drag Race Mexico. They also shared two other franchises coming to the mix soon: Drag Race Brasil and Drag Race Deutschland. They won’t stop until all 195 countries have their own iteration of Drag Race.
On top of the upcoming international Drag Race entries, World of Wonder also announced that the last two Drag Race UK winners finally got their prizes. Of course, the winners of Drag Race UK infamously don’t receive a cash prize and instead, receive a digital series produced by World of Wonder. So, they announced that the last two winners finally got their shows.
Season 3’s winner Krystal Versace has a new series premiering this summer called Keeping Up with Krystal Versace, which will follow her and her drag family as they plan Krystal’s first solo tour. Danny Beard, Season 4’s crowned queen, will host an interview show called After Shave with Danny Beard in the fall.
Also coming to WOW Presents+ this year are the brand new series AVALON TV and Sissy That Psyche. In addition, Bring Back My Girls and Tongue Thai’d have been picked up to return for their sophomore seasons. The bottom line is that RuPaul and World of Wonder are ensuring we’re getting our money’s worth with this WOW Presents+ subscription.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht is currently the only show of the franchise that has a returning chief stew for multiple seasons. Gone are the days of Hannah Ferrier and Kate Chastain. So Daisy Kelliher is a nice bit of stability in the interior team of Parsifal III.
Daisy joined the show in the second season, fresh as the flower of her namesake. Now, in Season 4, the Irish native has been worn down. Maybe the mix of understaffed interior and overbearing guests is a producer’s gift to viewers, but not to Daisy.
She went completely over the edge after some constructive criticism from Captain Glenn Shephard. Daisy left the tip meeting in tears after being told to “work smarter” by her superior. Meanwhile, her team, comprised of Lucy Edmunds and Mads Herrera, struggled the entire charter.
“We’re massively trying our hardest with the resources we’re given,” Daisy said in defense of her department. The tension with Gary King was palpable to the rest of the crew. Daisy felt unsupported by the First Mate and told him as much during the episode.
“I just feel like I’m taking on so much responsibility,” Daisy said. “I’m so sick of hearing my f-cking name and people asking me questions that I can’t answer.” Daisy felt that the optics of the episode would cause her fans’ concern. So after the episode aired, she took to Instagram to reassure her followers.
“I have had so many people reach out to me over the last few weeks in regards to how overwhelmed I’ve been in the last few episodes, just wanted to let you know I’m all good and I really appreciate all the support,” Daisy wrote to caption a selfie.
So what’s different this season? Certainly, Daisy took on challenging guests and created successful charters. Well, for one her crew seems less experienced this season. However, she did thank Mads and Lucy for their support. But ultimately, she blames herself for putting unnecessary pressure on the situation.
Yes[,] it was a tough season for me, I probably put too much pressure on myself and sometimes when I feel I’m getting pushed up against a wall I can break down — I am human after all but what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger and I’m still smiling 90% of the time even if you don’t see it,” Daisy continued.
Daisy decided to “learn” and “grow” and promised her followers to be a “better person for it.”
“I wouldn’t change it for the world. I may seem like I’m over my job but a couple of bad charters [aren’t] going to put me off,” she wrote. “I’m much stronger than that!”
Catch the show on Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo. Perhaps Daisy rallies on the next charter.
