The United Kingdom is about to get another dose of Filipino drag excellence.
Drag Race Philippines Season 1 standout Minty Fresh has been announced as the Philippines’ representative on “Ru Paul’s Drag Race: UK vs The World Season 3,” premiering on Jan. 27, 2026, on WOW Presents Plus.
She joins nine other all-star queens competing for the crown and the title “Queen of the Mothertucking World”: Sminty Drop, Gawdland, The Only Naomy, Melinda Verga, Mariah Balenciaga, Zahira Zapanta, Serena Morena, Kate Butch, and Fontana.
This season also marks the first time that three Filipina queens are vying for the crown, with Minty Fresh, Melinda Verga (Canada’s Drag Race), and Zahira Zapanta (RuPaul’s Drag Race UK) in the line-up.
Minty Fresh competed on the inaugural season of “Drag Race Philippines,” finishing just short of the finale in fifth place. She follows Marina Summers, her fellow “Drag Race Philippines Season 1” alum and the first Filipina queen to compete on “Ru Paul’s Drag Race: UK vs. The World,” landing in third place.
Known for her stunning looks, gag-worthy reads, and fierce aura, Minty Fresh will surely bring Filipino pride to the international stage.
