Drag Race Star Bianca Del Rio To Host The Pit Stop For All Stars 8
Comedy legend Bianca Del Rio will host The Pit Stop after every episode of the brand new season of Drag Race All Stars.
RuPaul’s Drag Race winner Bianca Del Rio is set to host The Pit Stop for season eight of All Stars.
The role should be a piece of cake for this comedy queen who already hosted The Pit Stop for season 15 of Drag Race, where she brought plenty of shade in her breakdowns of the looks and, of course, the drama.
Each week, the Drag Race season six winner will use her signature snark and comedy chops to review and recap new episodes of All Stars 8 with special guests.
“Like a bad rash… I’m baaaack! The greatest thing about a new season of All Stars is I don’t have to compete, but get to judge all of them by hosting The Pit Stop,” Del Rio told Variety.
Del Rio is a Drag Race fan-favorite who has been on a roll lately! On top of hosting The Pit Stop, she’s been touring the world, headlining movies, and will appear as a judge on Hulu's new drag competition series Drag Me to Dinner.

Guests joining Del Rio on The Pit Stop include other fan-favorites such as Alaska (All Stars 2 winner), Kylie Sonique Love (All Stars 6 winner), Sugar & Spice (Drag Race season 15), Mistress Isabelle Brooks (Drag Race season 15), Kornbread (Drag Race season 14), and Peppermint (Drag Race season 9).
During this new All Stars season, the returning queens are once again vying for a spot in the Drag Queen Hall of Fame — and that sweet, sweet cash prize of $200,000. The new cast includes Alexis Michelle, Darienne Lake, Heidi N Closet, Jaymes Mansfield, Jessica Wild, Jimbo, Kahanna Montrese, Kandy Muse, LaLa Ri, Monica Beverly Hillz, Mrs. Kasha Davis, and Naysha Lopez.
Resident judges Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews, Ts Madison, and Carson Kressley will be on hand to give out critiques and praise alongside guest judges like Maude Apatow, Brandon Boyd, Zooey Deschanel, Thom Filicia, Javicia Leslie, Idina Menzel, Ego Nwodim, Matt Rogers, Adam Shankman, JoJo Siwa, Robin Thede, and Bowen Yang.
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 8 premieres May 12 on Paramount+. In turn, The Pit Stop will air Saturdays on the RuPaul’s Drag RaceYouTube channel.
