The seventeenth season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” finished airing on April 15th, 2025, and since then, all of the queens have been doing at least successfully well. Everyone has been booking gigs, but a certain few queens have been up to some interesting things.

Kori King

Despite Kori King being an early out, she has become a fan favorite of this season with all of her shenanigans on the internet.

Kori King has been extremely active on social media, mainly Twitter/X and Instagram, and frequently updates fans through vlogs on her YouTube channel.

She has also been making absolutely ludicrous amounts of money on Cameo, dressing up as new people every week. Her looks have included Jojo Siwa, Shrek, Michael Jackson, The Grinch, and Drag Race co-stars Suzie Toot and Lexie Love. She was the #1 Cameo creator for multiple months.

Arrietty

Arrietty placed 8th overall after an absolutely abysmal lip-sync against Lydia B Kollins. Despite her middling placement and controversies both during and after season 17, Arrietty has been booking gigs, and her looks have only stayed fantastic.

Her troubles began after her drag mother, Irene the Alien, said that Arrietty was a “demon twink” and that she would “never forgive someone who fucks with my money, my character, or my man.”

In response, Arrietty went onto Twitter and went on a rant, accusing Irene of being all kinds of awful. Nearly immediately after, she deleted the posts and admitted that it was all a lie and she was just bitter that Irene was talking about her.

Luckily for her, Arrietty’s career hasn’t really been hurt. She stays booked, and she will have a busy June with the number of pride gigs she has on the table.

Lydia B. Kollins

Lydia B Kollins has been booked and busy, nearly immediately joining the cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race: All Stars, Season 10 after season 17 finished airing.

Lydia did not come to play on All Stars, immediately winning the first challenge with an absolutely sickening 80s-inspired look. Lydia is currently the front runner in her bracket and is definitely a fan favorite, but only time will tell who will win All Stars 10.

Her showmance with co-star Kori King also seems to be going well, with the pair frequently doing gigs together or appearing in videos on Kori King’s YouTube channel. 

Suzie Toot

Suzie Toot was one of the most popular queens of season 17, and many fans were heartbroken to see her eliminated at fifth place. 

Luckily for her, her career didn’t end with her placement.

She was lucky enough to be featured in Lady Gaga’s music video for her song “Disease.” On top of this, she has had an extremely successful one-woman show touring throughout the U.S, with each and every show selling out.

Onya Nurve

Season 17’s winner, Onya Nurve, has been nothing short of living up to the expectations that a winner would live up to.

She has been on tours worldwide with friends and other Drag Race alumni. Her next tour in Europe with Jewels Sparkles has already sold out entirely.

If that wasn’t enough, Onya is going to headline one of the biggest pride parades in the world at Silicon Valley Pride.

Onya has also been collecting Labubus, which is quite a bit less impressive than winning Drag Race or selling out international tours, but it’s still fun to talk about.
