Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo will be guest judges on this week’s episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars. In episode seven of season 10, the queens must design a look inspired by Wicked: For Good. They will work in pairs, with one queen creating a “Good Witch” look and the other creating a “Bad Witch” look.
Glinda and Elphaba learn the magic of working in tandem. So this week, you’ll be working in pairs.
RuPaul announced to the Queens at the beginning of the episode
To celebrate the film, the queens were asked to choose their “best frenemy” to team up with for the challenge. Each pair also has to come up with a backstory for their looks.
Erivo and Grande first surprise the queens in the Werk Room, then later cheer them on as guest judges for the main challenge of the episode.

This season, for the first time ever, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars has a brand-new format across 12 episodes: the Tournament of All Stars. The queens are split into three groups of six, each group competing in its own bracket over three episodes.
At the end of each bracket, the top three queens with the most points move on to the semi-finals, where they’ll face off against the top queens from the other groups in two more episodes of fierce competition.
The tournament ends with an exciting Lip Sync Smackdown for the Crown grand finale, where the finalists will compete for a $200,000 prize and a spot in the Drag Race Hall of Fame.
Part 1 of the Wicked movie earned 10 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, with Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande nominated for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress. The film won 2 awards: Best Costume Design and Best Production Design.
