Trixie Mattel Reveals Whether She'd Ever Compete on Another Season of 'Drag Race'

Trixie told the outlet she would “never” return for another season of Drag Race. She had previously appeared in the seventh season of the series, before taking home the crown on the third season of All Stars.

“No,” she said when asked about coming back for an All Winners season.

She continued, “They did ask me to come back for All Stars. They said, ‘Hey, we’re doing All Winners. We know you don’t want to do it, but we wanted you to know that we always think [of you] if you wanted to do the opportunity,’ and I said, ‘No, thank you.’”

Trixie currently acts as a judge on Paramount+’s international drag competition series Queen of the Universe alongside Michelle Visage, Leona Lewis, and Vanessa Williams.

“I love judging,” she said. “I mean, making fun of Leona Lewis, Vanessa Williams, Michelle [Visage], and Graham [Norton] to their faces all day? They’re fun people to mess around with and then the talent is so ridiculous. If those were the season 1 singers, imagine the season 2 singers!”

She went on to say that she’d be open to judging Drag Race as well, or even blend the series with Trixie Motel.

“I would love to have the Drag Race girls do themed hotel rooms and then I get to help judge, that would be fun,” Trixie said. “Or maybe they can do a challenge where they come out and do something at the motel now that I have a place to actually host. ‘Can you host?’ Now I can finally say yes. I would love to have some of the drag queens come do something motel- or renovation-related.”

She said of opting to renovate a motel for her new series, “Trixie as the character is sort of Californian and kinda ’60s. Palm Springs is a little city in California that’s super gay and frozen in the ’60s.”

“We do want to do more,” she added of taking on more projects in the future. “We want each of them to have a really different experience. We would love to do an RV park with a bunch of themed Airstream trailers or a campground with themed cabins. We could make it really high concept where there’s camp counselors and you as an adult are forced to wear a uniform like you’re at summer camp and you get to call your family once a week.”
