Foxtel to fast track RuPaul’s AllStars 2 direct from US
AFTER an organised campaign to lobby Foxtel to fast track the upcoming season of Ru Paul’s Drag Race All Stars 2, Melbourne drag queen Karen from Finance is excited to begin hosting screening of new episodes.
All Stars 2 will air on Foxtel’s Arena channel on Fridays at 8.30pm, only hours after episodes are aired in the US.
“We know how passionate RuPaul fans are. Foxtel has been working closely with the production company, World of Wonder, and Passion Distribution and we are thrilled they have made it possible for the series to air in Australia just hours after its US telecast,” Stephen Baldwin, Foxtel’s Head of Channels said.
