Every Queen on “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Who Didn’t Win But Should Have

All RuPaul’s Drag Race winners are fierce AF. But the list of sickening, gagging-to-the-gods bitches who didn’t win is as long as the wait between seasons.

So we picked the 25 crownless queens most overflowing with charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent…

Nina Flowers (Season 1)

The bald beauty from Puerto Rico, Miss Nina Flowers still stands out after a decade away from our TV screens. She was the first truly alternative queen. She slayed on the runway and captivated us in the challenges.

She won the miss congeniality award, but many (including us) think she deserved to walk away with the crown.

Tatianna (Season 2, All Stars 2)

Tatianna in season two was fine. Pretty, bitchy, but not much else. The Tatianna of “All Stars 2,” though was a breakout star and would have been a worthy winner. In “Drag Race,” there are always “choices,” as Tati would say.

But as anyone who has seen her spoken-word poetry masterpiece “Same Parts” knows, this bitch is a winner, baby.

Raven (Season 2, All Stars 1)

Raven is a goddess. A double loser and double runner-up, she’s also the strongest overall queen not to hold a “Drag Race” crown. Raven has everything from the look to the personality to the performances. Let the music play, but it’s a torch song, because Raven has been robbed.

Shangela (Season 2, Season 3, All Stars 3)

The only queen to have ever lost threetimes, Shangela has come a long way from season two. Her dominant performance in “All Stars 3” should have resulted in the crown, and her elimination in that season remains the biggest “Drag Race” injustice of all time.

Shangy won “All Stars 3.” Sorry, Trixie, but she did.
