Nina hails from the Columbus, OH, and her name comes from her emotional inspiration in college, Nina Simone. She's a classic John Waters-style campy queen and she looks up to comedians like Steve Martin. She loves to give back and does a great deal of charity work. Total heart of gold!

Plastique is sushi-grade fish, plus she has a fan in Alyssa Edwards of RPDR Season 5 and Dancing Queen fame. And honestly, if Alyssa vouches for her, that's enough for me.

Not just another Texas pageant queen, Rajah loves to play with blurring gender lines just as much as she enjoys being a super femme. She's also a gifted portrait artist!

11. Shuga Cain
The New York-based diva hails originally from the West Coast and is a triple threat, in that she can serve looks, comedy, and live vocals. We have a feeling she's got Snatch Game on lock.

12. Silky Nutmeg Ganache
Silky isn't big on social media, but she is big on the pageant circuit, so we expect to see plenty of polish along with that signature charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent each queen brings to the table.

13. Soju
Soju has quite a following already among Drag Race fans through her YouTube channel, Shots with Soju. Based on that alone, we know this Chicago K-pop queen is the one to beat for Miss Congeniality.

14. Vanessa Vanjie Mateo
Vanjie needs no introduction, because you met her already last season. Despite being the first girl to sashay away in Season 10, the Tampa beauty was gone too soon and RuPaul must've agreed with audiences who wanted more Vanjie. We expect she'll go much farther this time around.
