This ten new queens join forces for a shot at taking the crown from Paloma, Keiona, Le Filip and Mami Watta, winner of Drag Race France All Stars. The casting includes Azemylia, Creatine Price, Daisy Superbitch, Fluffy Bidule, Holly White, La Harpie, Lana Cotta, Malawitte, Margarette and Sublyme.
The press kit spotlights a diverse roster of drag profiles, spanning live performance, fashion, humor, singing, dancing, alternative aesthetics and club culture. Season 4 sticks to the familiar core of the format—glam makeup, styling, comedy, singing, lip-sync and runway—while introducing a new workshop and a fresh, never-before-seen mechanic.
The main new feature announced by France Télévisions is called the Golden Baguette. Each eliminated queen can award it to another contestant before leaving the workshop. The queen who receives the baguette can then step in the next episode to save one of the three contenders in danger, or save herself if she ends up at the bottom of the rankings. By using this power, she will also influence which queens are sent to the final lipsync.
The panel also evolves with the addition of Anggun, the Franco-Indonesian singer, actress and artist. She joins Nicky Doll, Daphné Bürki and Loïc Prigent, who have been synonymous with the show's distinctly French identity since earlier seasons.
Season 4 also welcomes a lineup of guest stars from France and beyond. France Télévisions has announced that Isabelle Adjani will be on hand to kick off this new edition. The lineup also features the return of several iconic challenges, including the Snatch Game, the Makeover Challenge, the Girls Band Challenge, and the Musidrag.
Drag Race France Season 4 targets viewers who have followed the French franchise since its inception, but also those drawn to performance contests where each episode fuses fashion, humor, staging, pop culture, and lip-sync battles. The show will appeal less to those seeking fiction or a documentary; it’s an entertainment competition built around challenges, a judging panel, and eliminations.
Viewers will also be able to catch this season's queens live on stage after the broadcast. France Télévisions announces a residency at the Casino de Paris starting September 24, 2026, before a tour across France, in a show placed under the artistic direction of Thomas Jolly.
