World of Wonder has expanded the Drag Race empire and Sweden is now a part of the family. Drag Race Sverige is premiering March 4 at 12:30 p.m. PST.

Farao Groth and Swedish-Nigerian singer and actress Kayo are on the judge’s roster along with host Robert Fux.

“Nothing beats glitter, glamor, and a tight corset,” says Kayo in a statement. “Drag Race is colorful and spectacular but also fun and sharp. I was actually surprised by the energy and determination of the queens. These are Sweden’s top drag artists and every single one of them really wants to win this. But there will be fierce competition for the crown.”

“The beauty of Drag Race is how much the participants offer themselves,” says Groth. “It’s funny, intimate, and it’s human. There are big personalities and strong destinies mixed with hot temperaments and winning skulls. This is something completely new and you get to open the door to an unknown, glittering world.”

The nine queens competing on the season are: Admira Thunderpussy, Almighty Aphroditey, Antonina Nutshell, Elektra, Endigo, Fontana, Imaa Queen, Santana Sexmachine and Vanity Vain.
