Alaska, Jackie Beat, Jinkx Monsoon, and many others will appear in the campy competition series, premiering May 31. Charla/Mirna were just hilarious - Charla throwing up the sausage to fit more in and Mirna yelling IT TASTES LIKE POOP! (and Dustin/Kandice cant stop laughing at them), Mirna has another huge taxi meltdown (Im crying and hes laughing!) and Charla struggling to guide the horse and falling over in armour (Im going to Hell for laughing at Charla but it could be the funniest moment so far).
