She was a powerhouse performer winning the Season 11, Episode 6 mini-challenge, as well as winning the Draglympics as the team captain and the "L.A.D.P.!" acting challenge. She was in the bottom twice, surviving the infamous "Diva Worship" lip sync, which put half off the cast on the chopping block. She also out lip synced Ra'Jah O'Hara.
Eureka
Eureka entered the series in Season 9, placing 11th; however, she was not eliminated for her drag. She went home because of an injury and had an open invitation to return to Season 10, which she did. Her talent shown that season, winning two mini-challenges, two maxi-challenges and two mainstage lip syncs. In the finale, she placed second/third, losing to Season 10's winner, Aquaria.
Ginger Minj
Ginger's first time on Drag Race was Season 7, and she was a front runner, winning three maxi-challenges, including Glamazonian Airways, Snatch Game and Hello, Kitty Girls. She was a runner-up that season and invited back for All Stars Season 2, where she did not place as well, ranking eighth.
Jan
After the success of her drag sister Rosé in Season 13, Jan is back in the competition once more, hoping to redeem herself. Appearing in Season 12, Jan was a consistently strong player, placing in the bottom two once; however, she did not receive a win her season, with her safe placement in the Rusical leading to a popular meme. While she was not a winner, she was a top on three occasions and placed eighth.
Jiggly Caliente
Jiggly entered Drag Race back in Season 4 and won two mini-challenges; however, she did not win a maxi-challenge, but she was on the high team for Season 4, Episode 4, "Queens Behind Bars." She was also in the bottom three times, cementing her reputation as an amazing lip syncer after sending two queens -- Alex Hernandez and Dwayne Cooper -- home; however she went home after performing against Willam Beli, placing eighth.
