The dance competition show, which celebrates the grand queer tradition of ball culture, has just dropped a brand new trailer, which offers another sick’ning glimpes of the voguing teams, or ‘houses’, who’ll be competiting for a grand prize of $100,000.

 

Ballroom veterans DaShaun Wesley and DJ MikeQ are set to host and DJ the series respectively, while rapper Megan Thee Stallion, stylist Law Roach and legendary voguing dancer Leiomy Maldonado will join the aforementioned Jamil on the judging panel.
