Eureka, who was eliminated from Season 9 because of a medical condition received the invitation to join the next season, which she gladly accepted.

If that's not enough, you can also get the Velour experience by supporting the "Velour: The Drag Magazine."
Reality Show's challenge to contestants
The contestants on the drag race showdown are challenged to specific performances based on the mini challenges and the main challenges.
Mini-challenges are considered repetitive and minor performances that show the contestant's consistency. The main challenge can be done individually, or by a group and is most likely be taken seriously because of its capability to give the performers' immunity from the next challenge.
The last season awarded the winner with $100,000 and a year supply of Anastacia Beverly Hills cosmetics and the crown from Fierce Drag Jewels.
RuPaul's Drag Race reality show won the Best Reality Competition at the 2017 MTV Movie and TV Awards, while RuPaul was nominated as Best Host.
