Drag Race México is a Mexican Reality Show, a talent competition for Drag Queens that's part of the international Drag Race franchise.Eleven drag queens compete in a set of weekly challenges, usually with one contestant eliminated in each week's episode. The challenges cover things such as modelling, makeup and fashion design - as well as comedy, acting and dance performances. Each episode also includes at least one themed runway fashion show, which may or may not be related to the episode's other challenges.The winner receives a cash prize and a year's supply of cosmetics - as well as a crown and sceptre, inducting them as the franchise's first "iconic superstar" of Mexican drag.As well as the challenges themselves, a large part of each show is devoted to conversation and events backstage, in the shared "Werk Room". This is where contestants prepare their costumes, do their makeup and rehearse for some of the challenges. Contestants aren't usually in drag during these segments, but still use their stage names - Drag Race largely avoids mentioning contestants' legal names unless contestants specifically share them.At the end of each episode, contestants in the middle of the field are immediately marked as 'safe' until the next episode and leave the stage, whereas contestants at the top and bottom of the results remain onstage to hear the judges' critiques. As the series progresses, the number of safe places available steadily reduces.After the critiques the remaining contestants leave the stage, the judges deliberate, and all of the contestants return to hear their verdict - at which point one queen is declared the week's winner, two are warned that they are potentially facing elimination, and any remaining queens who received critiques are also declared 'safe'.As with other Drag Race shows, elimination is tied to a "lip sync battle" - the two contestants lip sync to a song chosen by the judges, with both queens performing onstage at the same time. The judges then decide who'll be saved and who'll be sent home.Unlike some of the other shows in the franchise, Drag Race México is self-contained - there's no companion Untucked show to focus on Werk Room conversations and say farewell to the eliminated contestants.The series is hosted and judged by Lolita Banana and Valentina, two well-established drag queens who previously appeared in other Drag Race shows - Lolita was a contestant on Drag Race France, whereas Valentina competed in both the original RuPaul's Drag Race and RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars. They're joined by Óscar Madrazo as a regular judge, plus a different guest judge for each episode.Drag Race México is filmed in Spanish and streamed internationally with subtitles. All English language quotes on this page are taken from the official subtitles.The first season was preceded by a one-off "Meet the Queens" special introducing the contestants, as well as two short "Meet the Host" specials introducing Valentina and Lolita and a similar "Meet the Judge" video introducing Óscar.The first episode of season one was released on June 22, 2023. | |

Genre Savvy | |
| Drag Race México / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Regina Voce designs her clothes, but doesn't sew. After confirming she was going to be on Drag Race México, and knowing that Drag Race shows always have a sewing challenge, she immediately took lessons. However, she's still not at all confident at the start of the second episode's Quinceañera challenge, saying her new skills are very basic. They're good enough to get her a 'safe' result and through to the next episode, though. | |

Voted Off the Island | |
| Drag Race México / int_23eb99cc | comment |
Voted Off the Island: The judges choose the winner of each episode, choose the two queens who'll lip sync to avoid elimination, and then choose which queen will go home. Given the nature of the challenges and the lip sync, there's always a subjective element to these decisions. On occasion, judges can defy the usual voting rule. In the first episode, Miss Vallarta and Vermelha Noir both perform lip syncs that other contestants, speaking on Confession Cam, consider shockingly bad. When the judges deliver their verdict, Valentina agrees, stating they weren't up to Drag Race México standards. For a moment it looks like both will be eliminated - and then both are actually saved, receiving a stern warning that they need to do much better next week. | |

Wardrobe Malfunction | |
| Drag Race México / int_45a559cf | comment |
Wardrobe Malfunction: When the contestants are hoisted into the air for the first episode's piñata photoshoot, Gala Varo and Pixie Pixie find that their outfits are slipping. The hosts are clearly amused, with much talk of visible "sticks" and "apricots". Gala Varo's groin is actually pixellated so that viewers don't see too much. | |

Pixellation: During the first episode's piñata photoshoot, Gala Varo's outfit suffers a Wardrobe Malfunction while she's hanging in the air. Her groin is pixelated to hide the details, but the Confession Cam and judge's comments are pretty descriptive. | |

Establishing Character Moment: The first episode deliberately gives each contestant a showcase to establish their drag style and persona when they make their grand entrance. Each queen walks into the Werk Room in full drag, pauses, poses and delivers a carefully chosen entrance line. | |

Non-Gameplay Elimination | |
| Drag Race México / int_832c1497 | comment |
Non-Gameplay Elimination: In the second episode, Miss Vallarta must lip sync against Serena Morena to avoid elimination. The music starts but Miss Vallarta simply walks to the back of the stage and waves goodbye before walking out of sight. The judges are shocked. The scene cuts to Miss Vallarta's Confession Cam footage, recorded at a later date, where she sadly says "You know what? I don't want this. I'm out"... and then cuts back to the lip sync as she strides back onstage, punching the air, to begin her performance. Cut back to the confessional, and a grinning Miss Vallarta adds "Just kidding! We're giving it all". The stunt doesn't save her from elimination, as she still loses the lip sync, but it gets a laugh out of the judges. | |

Drag Queen | |
| Drag Race México / int_84d29a11 | comment |
Drag Queen: As with other Drag Race shows, not only is it a contest for drag queens to demonstrate their skills, the two hosts are well-established drag queens as well. In practice, much of each episode covers the Werk Room preparations and rehearsals, with contestants mostly out of drag. Confession Cam segments, commenting on the show's events, are also filmed out of drag. | |

Foreshadowing: At the very start of the first episode, at least one of the pictures in the Werk Room is covered by a sheet. Later, the contestants meet Valentina - and then get the Internal Reveal that she has a co-host, Lolita. The covered pictures are of Lolita, and were supposedly covered by Valentina as part of their pretend-feud. | |

Elimination Statement | |

Elimination Statement: As with other shows in the Drag Race franchise, eliminated contestants usually make two different statements when they leave. The first is a final comment to the judges and cameras, before the contestant leaves the stage. The second is a message for the remaining contestants, written in lipstick on the werk room mirror. | |

Everyone Meets Everyone: The first episode of the season begins with the contestants entering the werk room in drag, one at a time. Some of them may already know each other, but they get some time to talk and introduce themselves before the hosts arrive. | |

Glass-Shattering Sound: Vermelha Noir sings her name during her initial entrance, rising in pitch for the "Noir". The episode emphasises it by adding a breaking glass sound effect to the end. | |

Internal Reveal: Lolita's entrance in the first episode is portrayed as a reveal, with the contestants seemingly unaware that Valentina would have a co-host. Marketing (and the intro at the very start of the episode) had already made this clear to viewers. | |

Shout-Out: Gala Varo enters the Werk Room dressed in a black and white striped suit, hiding her face behind money bags. One of the other queens immediately calls out "Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!" - the summoning phrase from the eponymous film Beetlejuice, used to call the ghost who wears a similar suit. | |
