Logo TV revealed the eagerly awaited cast comprised of the nation's 14 drag elite tonight during the "2014 New Now Next Awards." In a nod to superfans, Logo TV also launched a social scavenger hunt earlier this week via Snapchat and Facebook that culminated in the announcement of Miss Fame and Jasmine Masters as competing queens.

Along the way, they'll deliver gag-worthy and jaw-dropping moments as these talented ladies of drag join RuPaul's court of esteemed queens to compete in the pop culture phenomenon that has taken the world by its weave.
