The origins of the RuPaul’s Drag Race franchise may have been grounded in fashion design, runway modeling, and makeup skills. After a few seasons, however, comedy became a huge part of the show, driving certain contestants to steamroll through the competition with a quick comedic wit and hilarious sassy comebacks.
At this point, we’ve seen dozens of contestants on Drag Race who have earned the title of being a comedy queen, but it is clear that only some of them have risen to the top both on and off the franchise. Read below to find out who are the very best comedy queens in the history of RuPaul’s Drag Race.
10 TAMMIE BROWN
There’s no denying that Tammie Brown is the original comedy queen of RuPaul’s Drag Race. However, back in season 1, it is also pretty clear that her sense of humor wasn’t entirely appreciated by the other queens and the judging panel.
Between Drag Race season 1 and All Stars 1, Tammie Brown provided fans with some of the most hilarious moments in the entire franchise. Namely, Tammie told the judges that she was not seeing them “out there walking children in nature” and exclaimed “teleport us to Mars!” during a tense moment between the queens on All Stars.
Even so many years later, the appreciation for Tammie Brown never went away, prompting the queen to tour around the world alongside Trixie Mattel on her Skinny Legend Tour in 2019.
9 MIZ CRACKER
Miz Cracker is the perfect example of a comedy queen that was always successful in bringing a joke or some form of humorous storytelling to each and every runway look. Between her time on season 10 of RuPaul’s Drag Race and her self-produced web series Review with a Jew on YouTube, Miz Cracker established herself as one of the funniest queens to have ever been on this franchise.
Some of the most memorable moments of Miz Cracker on Drag Race include her performance as Dr. Dill during “The Bossy Rossy Show” episode and her Judy Jetson look in “The Last Ball On Earth.”
8 GINGER MINJ
During a season that focused so heavily on fashion queens such as Violet Chachki, Miss Fame, and Pearl, Ginger Minj stood out as the comedy queen that the fans could rely on for comic relief and funny commentary.
Since her time on Drag Race season 7 and All Stars 2 Ginger Minj was featured in the Netflix original film Dumplin’, cast as one of the main characters on the Super Drags animated TV series and is set to appear alongside Jinkx Monsoon on the new touring production of the musical Xanadu starting in 2019.
7 MONET X CHANGE
Monet X Change was one of the standout queens on season 10 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, so it was obvious that she would be brought back for All Stars 4. After her win alongside Trinity The Tuck, Monet joined the ranks of Chad Michaels, Alaska, and Trixie Mattel in the Drag Race Hall of Fame.
During All Stars 4, Monet X Change slayed the girl group challenge with a hilarious lip-sync performance and tied with Manila Luzon as a winner of the comedy roast challenge. On season 10, Monet’s standout comedic performance was her hilarious Snatch Game impersonation of Maya Angelou.
After Monet’s time on Drag Race, the queen kept showcasing her sense of humor on her Build Series talk show The X Change Rate and on the Sibling Rivalry podcast and tour alongside Bob The Drag Queen.
6 BENDELACREME
Among so many hilarious Drag Race queens, BenDeLaCreme was chosen as the Miss Congeniality of season 6. This was largely due to her campy performances on the runway, quick wit on the confessionals, and sharp comedic timing during every challenge.
Then, BenDeLaCreme returned for All Stars 3, where she won basically every episode she was on (but ultimately decided to eliminate herself). Between the two seasons, Ben won seven Maxi Challenges. Moreover, she is the only contestant in the history of Drag Race to win Snatch Game twice (on her original season and on All Stars).
Aside from the several solo comedy tours from BenDeLaCreme after her time on the show (including the iconic Terminally Delightful shows), this queen has also toured the world alongside Jinkx Monsoon with their All I Want For Christmas Is Attention holiday tour.
5 KATYA
Any true fan of this franchise would tell you that Katya is one of the ultimate fan-favorite RuPaul’s Drag Race queens. What’s more, she is also one of the most hilarious contestants to have ever walked into that workroom.
Katya has had an incredibly successful career since Drag Race, not only co-hosting the very successful web series UNHhhh and the Viceland talk show The Trixie & Katya Show but also headlining her solo comedy tour Help Me I’m Dying and launching the Whimsically Volatile podcast.
On TV, Katya was seen on Netflix’s Tales of the City and HBO’s Room 104. The queen was also a major part of the 2018 sequel Hurricane Bianca 2: From Russia With Love.
4 TRIXIE MATTEL
While it is hard to simply consider Trixie Mattel a comedy queen – after all, she broke boundaries with her iconic makeup skills and made a career for herself as a musician – there’s no denying that Trixie is a tried-and-true comedian.
Besides her highly rated UNHhhh and The Trixie & Katya Show projects alongside Katya, Trixie Mattel has headlined three major solo comedy tours: Ages 3 and Up, Now With Moving Parts Tour, and Skinny Legend Tour. Of course, all of Trixie’s shows include a lot of her original sons, but therein also lies this queen’s comedy material.
In 2019, Trixie Mattel premiered her first-ever documentary, Moving Parts, at the Tribeca Film Festival. The doc follows the queen during her time before, during, and after All Stars 3.
3 JINKX MONSOON
Back in season 5 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, it felt weird to categorize Jinkx Monsoon as a comedy queen. After all, comedy queens had historically done horribly on the franchise. In hindsight, however, Jinkx became the first-ever queen-whose-forte-was-comedy to win Drag Race, a feat that changed the franchise forever.
The rise of Jinkx Monsoon started out on Snatch Game, where the queen was finally able to showcase her intelligence and sense of humor. Throughout season 5, Jinkx kept making RuPaul, the judges and the fans laugh, prompting everyone to fall even more in love with her.
After Drag Race, Jinkx Monsoon released the 2014 documentary Drag Becomes Him, voiced a character on Steven Universe, and was featured at several stage productions that include Rent, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and Hairspray.
As of 2019, Jinkx will tour the world alongside BenDeLaCreme with their All I Want For Christmas Is Attention tour and star in a new Xanadu stage production along with Ginger Minj.
2 BOB THE DRAG QUEEN
If you’ve watched season 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, then you know just how talented, unstoppable, and hilarious Bob The Drag Queen is. All in all, Bob won three Maxi Challenges, including two comedy-acting challenges and the highly-coveted Snatch Game.
After the show, Bob The Drag Queen released several songs, released her Suspiciously Large Woman comedy special, started the Sibling Rivalry podcast and tour with Monet X Change, and starred in a production of Angels in America. In 2019 alone, Bob appeared on Netflix’s Tales of the City and on HBO’s A Black Lady Sketch Show.
1 BIANCA DEL RIO
When it comes to comedy queen, there’s just no one like Bianca Del Rio herself.
This self-described insult comic is always busy at work. Some of the highlights of Bianca’s career include four comedy tours (The Rolodex of Hate Tour, Not Today Satan Tour, Blame It On Bianca Del Rio Tour, and It’s Jester Joke Tour), two movies with her as a protagonist (Hurricane Bianca and Hurricane Bianca 2: From Russia With Love), and several stage credits that include replacing none other than Michelle Visage on the West End production of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie.
Bianca Del Rio is not only regarded as the ultimate Drag Race winner, but she is also considered the queen with the most successful career after the show. And all of this, of course, is largely due to her incredible comedy skills.
