With larger than life runway looks beyond memorable lip sync battles, it should come as no surprise that Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale is a certifiable smash and a fantastic celebration of Filipino drag culture. So it should come as absolutely no surprise that the August 13 premiere of Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale has set a new record as the biggest global launch in WOW Presents Plus herstory, “delivering a 50% increase in viewership compared to the most recent third season premiere of Drag Race Philippines“!
The success of Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale has also given birth to the first ever girl group outside of a Drag Race season. World of Wonder’s WOW Records announces the formation of REYN4, consisting of four stunning and talented Drag Race Philippines superstars. The group is composed of fan-favorite Drag Race Philippines alum Precious Paula Nicole (Drag Race Philippines Season 1 winner), Captivating KatKat (Drag Race Philippines Season 2 winner), Maxie (Drag Race Philippines Season 3 winner), and Marina Summers (Drag Race Philippines Season 1 + Drag Race UK vs The World S2 finalist). REYN4 is poised to make their premiere appearance later this season on Drag Race Philippines: Slaysian Royale & their debut single “Slaysian Royale” will be released this Friday, September 5th, with a full EP dropping later this year.
Co-Founders of World of Wonder, Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, said: “Seeing fans across the world come together in celebration of Asian drag excellence is not only inspiring but also sends a message that this is a family without borders, able to wrap us all in its mothertucking arms. And condragulations to REYN4, the Philippines own iconic queens of pop, ready to slay on the world stage. Slaysian Royale and REYN4 is a double helping of queer joy that can entertain, inspire and heal us all.”
