Hosts Ross Matthews, TS Madison and Variety’s Senior Culture and Events Editor Marc Malkin kicked off the night hyping up the crowd for some of these queens’ first public appearance since the new season was announced.
One by one, they strutted their stuff in front of a ravenous and frankly thirsty crowd. Sheer madness in our eyes.
It’s so tough for me to guess which of these queens is a front-runner because they all felt like stars. Though I can’t help but root for Kenya Pleaser basked on vibe alone. Hey auntie!
A mother daughter dance of sorts ensued, as our new queens were paired with the veterans in a runway presentation befitting one of the show’s fabulous finales.

Then, from the shadows: ‘We’re from the same place.’
‘The Bronx?’
‘The world.’
The ever outspoken, iconic and inspirational law roach appeared from the wings to join our queens and hosts in the final toast before we turned the night fully over to our DJ. Making his entrance while quoting the year’s best meme? Legendary.
Electricity hung in the air as we saw the start of 14 new careers being launched into the stratosphere.
I’m a drag race is superfan and will be tuned into every episode, and I suggest you join me. Viva la dieciocho!

Last week Instagram partnered with talented creative Slawn to bring the immersive Canvas House installation to life during Miami Art Week. Slawn and Instagram invited guests to become a collaborative part of this amazing activation allowing guests to pick up a mask, some gloves, a can of spray paint and let loose on the white plastered walls in Canvas House. While Slawn tagged the outside of the house, guests expressed themselves inside in an installation that embodied Instagram’s platform through Slawn’s medium. This event also marked a first for the talented artist who had never done an entire house before. Unlike most of the other festivities during Art Basel, Canvas House gave each guest the ability to become part of the artwork leading to an unforgettable night. Special guests included Mia Khalifa, Pepe Garcia, Maurice Kamara and more! The evening also featured an open bar and live DJ set providing vibes throughout the night. Canvas House was also a gathering of tastemakers and art lovers from music, fashion and culture coming together under on roof to create something together. In recent years Art Basel has become more famous for its parties than anything else, but this experience was unlike any other during Miami Art Week in that it brought the focus back to art.

Rian Johnson’s Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery feels like the perfect follow-up to his wildly successful Knives Out and Glass Onion. Johnson, a master of twisting narratives and injecting wit into the most serious of situations, has crafted a delectable and intricate mystery that both delights and surprises. In Wake Up Dead Man, the director doubles down on everything that made the original films so iconic—sharp dialogue, quirky characters, and an intelligent, labyrinthine plot—but elevates the stakes, the humor, and the heart. It’s a murder mystery like no other.
