On June 3, 2021, it was announced that Peppermint, Crystal and Barbada de Barbades would be leading the series as the mothers to the competing drag houses. Dallas Dixon was also announced as the host. It was later revealed that Farra N. Hyte and Miss Butterfly would be joining the series as aunties.
