After announcing the fourteen new contestants who are set to compete for the $100,000 prize money and the title of America’s Next Drag Superstar, RuPaul’s Drag Race has now unveiled a video revealing Season 14's guest judges and teases some events that audiences can expect to unfold when the new season starts rolling out in early January.

As per Drag Race tradition, style superstar Carson Kressley and the hilarious Ross Mathews are set to come back in alternate weeks on the judges’ panel, along with Michelle Visage and host RuPaul Charles. Joining them are fresh and returning guest judges, such as Academy Award Nominee Taraji P. Henson, three-time Emmy nominee and Nailed It! host Nicole Byer, and Grammy winners Lizzo and Alicia Keys. Other featured guest judges include Dove Cameron, Loni Love, Ava Max, Alec Mapa, TS Madison, and Andra Day.

The new trailer also teases that Season 14 is set to be “the most game-changing season ever”. For the first time in herstory, the season will feature a RuPaul candy bar, but whether it’s related to just one of the queen’s weekly challenges or part of a wider, season-long strategy has yet to be revealed.

But even if the chocolate isn’t part of something bigger, season fourteen of RuPaul’s Drag Race already made herstory when they RuVealed the contestants: the flagship reality series will debut its first-ever male, cisgender competitor. After being announced as a contestant, Maddy Morphosis took to Instagram to share his thoughts on being selected:

“Drag wasn’t even something I considered when I first started going out. It was something that just happened to be in the scene I was in, that I fell in love with. But doing drag the past 5 years has given me more opportunities to further explore my own identity, and also understand more about others. The concepts of “masculine” and “feminine” are arbitrary and made up. And the rigid line drawn between them just feeds the stigma of men who embrace femininity, and perpetuates the cycle of toxic masculinity. If there’s a message that I hope to convey to people, it’s that you don’t have to inhabit the box society puts you in just to be comfortable in your own sexuality.”

Season 14 of RuPaul’s Drag Race premieres on VH1 on January 7. Check out the all-new trailer below:
