Produced by Pop24, the creative team behindThe Mommy Clubfranchise,Tollie & ManilaandBae Beyond Borders, the South African Film and Television Awards-nominated reality series offers an unfiltered look into the lives of seven drag queens navigating Cape Town’s vibrant performance scene.

Behind the lashes and the “lewks,” the show explores the hard work, personal trials, wins, and – inevitably – the drama that define life in drag. Season 2 picks up where the first left off, with alliances shifting, tensions simmering and, according to the cast, a few revelations that viewers will not see coming. The channel caught up with the queens ahead of the premiere to find out what’s in store.

Though she has been doing drag for only a few years, BB Vahlour has quickly established herself as one of the industry’s rising stars. She is also one of three cast members who are trans women. Reflecting on her return, BB says the second season represents an opportunity for growth, both personal and collective.

“Returning for a second season feels like an opportunity to deepen the work we started and to grow alongside the audience and the ‘characters’ we are on the show. It is both an honour and a responsibility to keep the story authentic and true to ourselves, while also showing where our drag is in our lives now, what and who we represent, and the importance of uniting all drag queens,” she said in a statement. Multi-pageant winner Fabian van Schalkwyk, known in drag as Emogan Moore, promises viewers that Season 2 delivers on every front.

“There is so much to look forward to this season, with many new and unexpected friendships forming… and way more lashes, wigs, garments and drama,” he said. Wade Khoosal has been doing drag for seven years and has already earned a feature inVogue. Performing as Ina Propriette, a Miss Sovereign Western Cape titleholder, he sees the show as a platform with a purpose beyond entertainment.

“Returning for a second season means drag gets another moment in the culture at the forefront. It’s been a dry spell, and I’m just extremely excited to have my art form be a beacon for our community because we seriously missed and needed this.”
