R-U ready, glamazons? Get going, as it’s time to watch RuPaul’s Drag Race season 15 episode 5 online, even if you don't have cable. The competition is getting even more fierce and fabulous tonight.
This season of Drag Race featured the largest cast yet, with 16 queens. In episode 5, they've been whittled down to 13, after last week's elimination of one of the identical twins, Sugar.
And since Spice was the other queen at the bottom, the trouble may be doubled in episode 5. Meanwhile, there's no clear frontrunner yet, with challenge wins by Loosey LaDuca, Sasha Colby and Anetra.
Actress Janelle Monáe (Glass Onion) joins the judges table alongside mainstays Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley and Ross Mathews.
