RuPaul's Drag Race Season 17 Episode 15 aired on MTV on April 11, 2025, but there are various streaming options, and some even let viewers watch for free. The most recent episode saw the ten eliminated queens come back to the stage to have a lip sync battle against each other and ultimately get a chance to win $50,000.
The first round saw five lip sync battles in which two queens participated, eliminating 5 queens at the end. The second round paired three queens and two queens in a group, and one from each emerged victorious.
In the last round, the two remaining queens had a battle against each other, and the winning one took away the vash prize home. The judges for this episode were RuPaul herself along with Michelle Visage, and Ts Madison.
The series features Drag Queens from across the country who engage in lip sync battles throughout the competition and showcase their talents through their fashion and glamorous performances. At the end of the installment, RuPaul decides the winner and crowns America's Next Drag Superstar.
The official synopsis for the show reads,
“Each episode consists of a main challenge, usually some form of performance or fashion design — sometimes both. The queens then participate in a themed runway show, where one is declared the winner of that week, while two others are announced to be up for elimination. The bottom two must then compete to stay on the show with a lip-sync for their lives.”
Till this point, only four queens remain who will compete against each other. As for the penultimate episode, it saw drama amongst the queens who were previously eliminated and left things hanging. But here is how fans can enjoy the episodes.
