Monét X Change and Bob the Drag Queen Are Headed to The Simpsons
This is exactly what we need to start 2023 off right!
Bob the Drag Queen and Monét X Change are headed to Springfield!
The RuPaul’s Drag Race alums are making their debut on The Simpsons in an episode airing New Year’s Day, according to an announcement that has fans of both worlds hyped for the crossover.
“We’re on The Simpsons, bitch!” Monét said in an exuberant video of the two shared by Bob.
Their foray into the world of cartoons will take place in episode 12 of the long-running show’s 34th season, titled “My Life as a Vlog.”
“Through a series of YouTube recommended videos, the story of the rise and fall of the Simpson family vlog is revealed,” reads the official synopsis.
How our beloved drag queens will play into this remains to be seen, but Simpsons writer Carolyn Omine gave us a sneak peek at the lewks the two will be rocking in the episode.
