The <\/span>Drag Race <\/span><\/em>franchise has introduced a new Pit Crew member, and fans are going wild.<\/span><\/p>\n

On 9 May, All Stars 10<\/em> finally made its highly anticipated premiere on Paramount Plus in the US and WOW Presents Plus in the UK. <\/span><\/p>\n

Unlike past entries, the new season features 18 queens competing for the crown, $200,000 and a coveted spot in the Drag Race Hall of Fame<\/em> instead of the usual 12.<\/span><\/p>\n

The fierce lineup is as follows: Acid Betty (season 8), Aja (season 9, All Stars 3<\/em>), Alyssa Hunter (season 14), Bosco (season 14), Cynthia Lee Fontaine (season 8, 9), Daya Betty (season 14), Deja Skye (season 14), Denali (season 13) and Ginger Minj (season 7, All Stars 2, 6<\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n

More gag-worthy star power incoming: Irene the Alien (season 15), Jorgeous (season 14, All Stars 9<\/em>), Kerri Colby (season 14), Lydia B Kollins (season 17), Mistress Isabelle Brooks (season 15), Nicole Paige Brooks (season 2), Olivia Lux (season 13), Phoenix (season 3) and Tina Burner (season 13).<\/span><\/p>\n

While the double premiere brought back a slew of fan-favourite queens, it also introduced viewers to a brand new Pit Crew member, Manuel Kornisuik.<\/span><\/p>\n

The handsome hunk made his first appearance \u2013 alongside veterans Bryce and Bruno \u2013 in episode two during the Front Roll mini-challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, it didn’t take long for viewers to flock to social media to share their hilarious and relatable reactions to Manuel. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Good god. I wonder how does it feel to look like that?” one person on Reddit <\/span>wrote. <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Another viewer <\/span>commented<\/span><\/a>: “He made me look away from Bruno for a split second.” <\/span><\/p>\n

A third person <\/span>wrote<\/span><\/a>: “Hey Manuel\u2026 I’m so Into You.”<\/span><\/p>\n

While Manuel recently debuted in the <\/span>Drag Race<\/span><\/em> world, he is no stranger to the limelight.<\/span><\/p>\n
