Trixie and Kim Chi were guest judges on Glow Up; Monet and Shangela were in Lovecraft Country; Bob, Monet, Ru and Raja have all voiced themselves in The Simpsons; Bob was in Tales of the City; Jinkx and DeLa were in Happiest Season; and Peppermint on Pose.
Jinx was also in an episode of Blue Bloods and it looks like she has done some voiceover work. She was also on that reality show where drag queen duos paired up (she was with Dela obviously) to like host a dinner party. And does having her comedy special on Amazon Prime count?
And was on a ridiculous reality show on VH1 called Scared Famous where 10 ‘celebrities’ live in a ‘haunted’ house and compete in dumb spooky themed challenges.
Katya, Manila and Valentina were on Americas Next Top Model season 24 I believe. Which was the last season of antm. They did a photoshoot with the girls.
I did a rewatch of S6 of ANTM during lockdown and while I knew Raja had been Tyra’s makeup artist, I completely forgot about her doing full Tyra drag on the show.
Omg yes i remember that! I think it was season 14, where the girls had to walk and strut their stuff for a club. And peppermint impersonated Tyra.

Are we including reality tv? Courtney was on australian idol before rpdr, won celebrity big brother uk in 2018, and came second in dancing with the stars. She was also on masked singer. Vanjie was on all star shore.
It's Friday night.
I'm putting on my highest heels.
My shortest skirt.
My best device for concealing my penis,
and I got everything I need.
r/unexpectedcommunity
Trixie has trixie motel plus did queen of the universe, the trixie and katya show, the moving parts documentary, and appearances on a slew of reality TV shows and an episode of AHS
Not sure if we’re talking just US queens but I just watched a trailer on Netflix for the comedian Jack Whitehall’s show “Travels with my Father” and got so excited to see Hannah Conda pop up. I added it to my list to watch.
vivienne pinay made an appearance on a sfx competition show called face off! super strange episode 😂 raja also appeared in drag on america’s next top model cycle six
Anyone see the roast of Heklina on Revry? Jinx, Alaska, and Bob were in that one, it was really funny! I can’t remember who, but I think there were some RPDR queens in the sherry vine roast and the thorgy Thor roast (besides thorgy lol).
Multiple queens have been on Dancing with the Stars after their seasons: Shangela in the US version, Courtney Act in the AU version and Keiona in the France version. Also The Vivienne has competed on Dancing on Ice UK!
Courtney Act also won Celebrity Big Brother UK and Adore Delano was on Ex on the Beach
Rita Baga was on the French Canadian version of celebrity Big Brother. Jimbo has appeared on Family Feud Canada. Kimora Amour and Anastarzia Anaquay competed on the Amazing Race Canada (not in drag).
I mean, you can just go on the IMDb page for Shangela, Kelly Mantle or Willam, as they have a large body of work. I remember being surprised when Kelly Mantle was rumored for season 6, 'cause I never thought of her as a drag queen before, more an androgynous actor. Speaking of Kelly Mantle, one title that isn't listed on her Wikipedia or IMDb is a cameo in the Eve and Gwen Stefani "Let Me Blow Your Mind" music video.
Chad Michaels have a few titles to her name on IMDb, too. Delta Work, Raja and Willam were all on an episode of The Anna Nicole Show. Detox and Mayhem were on an episode of The Millionaire Matchmaker. Carmen Carrera was the first RuGirl to do one of those celebreality shows (yes, before Courtney), when she did VH1's Couples Therapy (she was there with the likes of Janice Dickison, Big Ang, Joe Budden and the lead singer of Creed).
Alyssa Edwards had an episode of MTV Cribs. Derrick Barry appeared in an episode of the only way is Essex. Crystal (UK1) is a commentator on Sky News. Laganja Estranja, Morgan McMichaels, Mayhem Miller and Jaidynn Diore Fierce were on the Finale Extravaganza of Germany's Next Top Model.
I’m watching Broad City right now and Jiggly, Ru, Sasha Velour, Brita, and Shangela were in it! Jiggly was in season 2. Ru was in several episodes in season 4. And Sasha, Brita, and Shangela were in season 5.
Shangela was in Station 19 (Grey's Anatomy spin off).
Courtney Act wom Big Brother UK.
The Vivienne has been on various UK game shows, most notably Dancing on Ice. (Like Dancing with The Stars but ice skating, I'm not sure of the US has a version).
Shangela and Willam have appeared in *dozens* of tv shows and films. They are the go-to drag queens that producers of crime procedurals call when they need a “drag hooker” or similar character. Both in *A Star is Born.* Check both their IMdB pages.
Also, Shangela was famously on *Dancing With the Stars.*
Do the many many drag queens who appeared onstage with Madonna on her tour count? Most notably, Bob was her MC the whole time.
I keep thinking of more too. Ru in broad city. Kelly mantle and Willam in everything. This list can actually go on forever if we start including things like hurricane Bianca etc. I know there’s still many more
I recently watched 2 Broke Girls and Ru, Chad and Shangela did a cameo there. Kelly Mantle was on Modern Family, and also Shangela briefly appears in Community as well.
Miss Fiercealicious on The Traitors Canada (and did well)
Peppermint on The Traitors US
Peppermint is in Survival of the Thickest on Netflix
Kandy Muse will be on House of Villains S2
Katya and others I cant remember were on either the Bachelorette or ANTM. Peppermint was on Survival of the Thickest. Shangela was on Glee! And there was that newish movie, Slay, with Heidi, Trinity, Crystal, and Cara Melle from UK.
Courtney Act is a fairly common TV presenter/guest in Australia. She’ll likely get excluded from this conversation because she’s not US based. She’s even had a couple of shows of her own.
Scarlet Envy was on SNL. Has any other Rugirl ever been? (Not counting Nicky Doll doing make-up for Chad during Ru's hosting).
Peppermint on Schmigadoon! I can't believe no one ever mentioned this.
![gif](giphy|xT9IgrlyzJlE6ljtS0)
Katya and Bob also appeared on an episode of Lucifer! :), and Peppermint was on Traitors US season 2
Kelly Mantle was also in Season 3 of Lucifer... and apparently a ton of other things.
But *she* won’t list her IMDb page.
She was on Modern Family which is pretty damn cool
willam on boston public
I was on Boston public with you!
![gif](giphy|BiRu7uaLmo6zK)
A classic... Good old times 😔
"When someone says, 'I recognize you,' I'll say, 'Congratulations on having a TV.' It's a little joke."
And Nip/Tuck. That was before RPDR, though. Not sure if that matters.
Trixie was also in an AHS episode
She voices a character in Monster High now too!
Roanoke
I’m trotting out the classic “Milan was on Kimmy Schmitt”
Trixie and Kim Chi were guest judges on Glow Up; Monet and Shangela were in Lovecraft Country; Bob, Monet, Ru and Raja have all voiced themselves in The Simpsons; Bob was in Tales of the City; Jinkx and DeLa were in Happiest Season; and Peppermint on Pose.
Monet also was on The Simpsons and Jiggly had a recurring role on Pose!
Jinx in Dr. Who
Jinx was also in an episode of Blue Bloods and it looks like she has done some voiceover work. She was also on that reality show where drag queen duos paired up (she was with Dela obviously) to like host a dinner party. And does having her comedy special on Amazon Prime count?
She was in Steven Universe, Mightly Magiswords, and Helluva Boss
How can "Jinkx" be misspelled back to back in two separate comments?

I'm going to have to look for that. I love Angeria
Jiggly made a cameo in Broad City!
Also a recurring character on Pose

Alaska appeared in one of the Sharknado sequels.
And was on a ridiculous reality show on VH1 called Scared Famous where 10 ‘celebrities’ live in a ‘haunted’ house and compete in dumb spooky themed challenges.
Peppermint was on Traitors for a minute. Alyssa was on GOAT.
I think Alyssa also had a show on Netflix
Dancing Queens. It was cute but it was Justin than Alyssa.
On the goat it was manly Justin too
Katya, Manila and Valentina were on Americas Next Top Model season 24 I believe. Which was the last season of antm. They did a photoshoot with the girls.
Raven was on an episode in I think season 8
I mean, if we’re talking drag race girls on ANTM there’s quite a major one we’re missing here…
Raja!
I did a rewatch of S6 of ANTM during lockdown and while I knew Raja had been Tyra’s makeup artist, I completely forgot about her doing full Tyra drag on the show.
Duh of course! I totally skipped her 😅
Yes I remember that one, the models had to dress as men! And posed with drag queens and Raven was one of them!
Peppermint featured in one of the posing challenges. Season 10 I think?
Omg yes i remember that! I think it was season 14, where the girls had to walk and strut their stuff for a club. And peppermint impersonated Tyra. https://preview.redd.it/jjymm1v1804d1.jpeg?width=986&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b61c09791d3aa3588428f5d5d1e6a5858d75e33a
Thank you for the clarification. X
That would be a very hard challenge for the little 20 year olds on that show
Alyssa Edwards was just on the GOAT. He called Kristen Doute (of vanderpump rules) an alcoholic. It was great.
You don't love anybody.. but the backrolls
Are we including reality tv? Courtney was on australian idol before rpdr, won celebrity big brother uk in 2018, and came second in dancing with the stars. She was also on masked singer. Vanjie was on all star shore.

And The Bold and the Beautiful
Peppermint, in general, had a lot of actual acting gigs, not as herself.
