The country's most famous crossdresser, the statuesque RuPaul, has teamed with Logo to bring you the latest and perhaps greatest in reality TV: RuPaul's Drag Race.

After reviewing thousands of applicants, 9 finalists were chosen to compete as America's new drag queen megastar. The show debuts on February 2 at 10:00 p.m. There are 8 hour-long episodes.

"To be a winner on this show the contestants need to be a fashion designer, an American idol, and a top model all rolled up into one. And they definitely have to be smarter than a fifth grader."

"RuPaul made history as drag's first glamour superstar and will do so once again bringing together a group of exceptionally talented drag artists in the world's first drag reality series," Logo president Brian Graden says.
