*Follow WHIP* [Twitter](https://twitter.com/WHIPRADIO) [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/whipradiotu/) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/whipradio/) WRITTEN BY: Zachary Matthew The holiday season is being kicked off with two *RuPaul’s Drag Race* competitions in December. *RuPaul’s Drag Race Holi-Slay Spectacular* aired December 7, followed soon by the fourth season of *RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars*, premiering Friday, December 14.  The *Holi-Slay Spectacular* special included big names in the drag community like *All Stars 3* winner, Trixie Mattel, and one of the runners-up from that season, Shangela Laquifa Wadley, who was just recently at Temple hosting a talent show competition while on her national college tour. Other queens present for the special were season 10 queens, Mayhem Miller and finalist, Eureka O’Hara, season 8 runner-up, Kim Chi, season 7 contestant and queen of Internet memes, Jasmine Masters, *Drag Race* legend from season 4, Latrice Royale, and last but not least, season 2 queen, Sonique. The 8 contestants battled it out for the *Drag Race* Christmas Queen crown, competing in performances and lip-sync showdowns, all while promoting RuPaul’s newest holiday album, *Christmas Party* (2018). Even though the special was presented as a competition, in the end, in light of the holiday spirit being about love and acceptance, RuPaul announced that no one queen won the crown, and instead every queen was declared a winner. However, the competition is about to rev back up very soon, and this time it will truly be cutthroat. *All Stars 4*  is set to air next Friday and the 10 queens competing are in it for one thing and one thing only; to win. Queens participating include season 10’s Monet X Change and Monique Heart, season 9’s Farrah Moan, Valentina, and Trinity Taylor, season 8’s Naomi Smalls, season 7’s Jasmine Masters, and season 6’s Gia Gunn. Two previous *All Stars* alums will also make an appearance to compete, those being Manila Luzon, from season 3, and Latrice Royale, from season 4.  After an iconic *All Stars 2* and a controversial *All Stars 3*, the potential this season has to go either way is tremendous. And not too long after the next girl is ushered into the *Drag Race* Hall of Fame, season 11 of *Drag Race* will be hitting screen some time in Spring 2019.   Source: E! News, Variety
