The Drag Race universe is expanding. Over the past 15 years, RuPaul's Drag Race has touched almost every part of the globe. The massively successful series is streamed worldwide and increasingly has been launching franchises in a variety of countries. One of the latest iterations, sees an activist living with HIV take up some of the hosting duties for the series. Barbie Breakout, most known globally for a gruesome video protest she staged against Russia in 2013, is one of two announced hosts for the new show. She previously also appeared on shows like The Diva In Me and Shopping Queen. On Drag Race Germany, she will be joined by Gianni Jovanovic. The show will air beginning in September. The 45-year-old who has been living with HIV for 18 years, will be the latest in a long history of queens involved with the franchise living with HIV. In RuPaul's Drag Race season 1, Ongina came out in an emotional moment after winning a MAC Viva Glam challenge. She has been followed by others like Trinity K Bonet as well as Charity Kase in RuPaul's Drag Race U.K RuPaul's Drag Race U.K. and Enorma Jan on Drag Race Italia. But Barbie marks the first as a host.
