Paramount+ ‘Queen of the Universe’ Season 2 Sets Summer Release Date

It’s time to crown the Queen of the Universe. Paramount+ finally set a release date for its international drag competition Queen of the Universe, where we will get to see some of the world’s top drag queens battle for the title.

Queen of the Universe Season 2 will premiere Friday, June 2 on Paramount+ in the U.S., and Saturday, June 3, internationally.

Drag queens from Italy, Mexico, the Philippines and more will have to face off in this drag singing competition to be named Queen of the Universe. A new clip shows the contestants performing glitzy musical numbers in front of the audience and judges, who are some of the biggest names in pop music and drag.

Spice Girl Mel B will be replacing Leona Lewis on the Pop Diva Panel for Queen of the Universe Season 2. She will be working with her fellow judges — actress and Grammy Award-nominee Vanessa Williams, RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Trixie Mattel and Drag Race judge Michelle Visage — to name the victor. Irish comedian Graham Norton will also return to host. 

Drag icon and Emmy Award-winner RuPaul also serves as an executive producer on the show. 

World of Wonder, the production company behind RuPaul’s Drag Race, will be producing the show with MTV Entertainment Studios. 

Brazilian contestant Grag Queen won the title in Queen of the Universe Season 1 with a cash prize of $250,000, a total which essentially made her a billionaire in Brazil.
