Over four episodes, the celebrity cast will then compete for the title and prize money for charity. 

"Doing drag does not change who you are, it reveals who you are," RuPaul said in a statement. "I can't wait for the world to see what happens when our celebrity contestants get all up in drags!"

The show will premiere in 2020 on VH1.
