Where will the Drag Race France machine stop? A year ago, the adaptation of the famous American program RuPaul’s Drag Race came to France Télévisions. While the episodes were presented on the band’s platform every week, France 2 had decided to air the episodes every Saturday night right after Fort Boyard. Those who doubted the relevance and success of the show quickly had to change their minds. While the contest that crowned Paloma was followed by a total of about 7 million viewers, social networks instantly took over the phenomenon. A year later, the show returns for its second edition with even greater ambition.
SAME TEAM, NEW PLAYGROUND
Nicky Doll, who was already in charge of the first season, returned to animation and also became the head of the jury. Viewers will once again find the artist Kiddy Smile and Daphné Bürki by their side. The host is still very happy to be a part of it, especially as it measures the impact on the audience. ” I’ve always had a pretty simple exchange with people on a daily basis. But there, in the worldly sphere, in politics or in the supermarket, I am asked about this 2nd season. “she tells us. Faced with the audience success of the first season, France Télévisions decided to adapt and offer a new space to the show produced by Endemol France and Shake Shake Shake. From now on, every episode will air on Friday night in the second episode, no longer in the third episode. Waiting for prime time arrival? ” Moving the lines the way we do is already phenomenal. Of course, we want to reach the end of the road as soon as possible. But we can’t do anything if we don’t educate people and get a door. it takes some patience Says Alexandra Redde-Amiel, entertainment and games director at France Télévisions.
A FINAL TO THE RING
For the return of Drag Race France, the production chose not to rely on their success. While there were ten last year, eleven drag queens will embark on their adventure and try to earn the title of great French drag queen. The most iconic mini and maxi competitions will of course be on the schedule each week to ensure the nominees shine on the dance, song and humor record. This year, participants will have to pass the “Musidrag”, a test in which they must create a musical. A hymn will also be announced, which should definitely mark the spirits. Personalities will be invited to the set each week to assist the jury. Nicola Sirkis, leader of Indochina, and Christine and the Queens responded remarkably. The icing on the cake for fans of Drag Race France: The finale of this season 2 will be held in front of 1,200 people at the Grand Rex in Paris. The atmosphere, of course, promises to be legendary.
