On January 10th 2020, a new season starring RuPaul landed on Netflix called AJ and The Queen. The season was a success, leaving fans wanting to know when season 2 is airing. Directed by Michael Patrick King.
AJ and the Queen also stars 11-year-old Izzy G, Michael-Leon Wooley, Josh Segarra, Tia Carrere, Katerina Tannenbaum and more.
The concept of AJ and the Queen is centred around a down on her luck drag queen called Ruby travelling across America with an unlikely sidekick, 10-year-old AJ.
So here’s what you need to know about the show including will there be a second season?

RuPaul Charles is a 59-year-old drag performer, actor and singer. With decades of experience on his showreel, it appears RuPaul will try his hand at anything.
The star who has won awards and even got a star on the Hollywood walk of fame doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
With his hit Netflix shows RuPaul’s Drag Race and spin-off series’ All Stars and Drag Race UK, we have no idea where RuPaul finds the time for all of his new projects!

What is AJ and the Queen?
The latest RuPaul series to come out is AJ and the Queen, which is exclusively on Netflix.
Sharing the history of drag, the storyline follows a drag queen, Ruby Red, who saves a kid along the way. However, it a heartfelt twist, the kid also saves the Drag Queen as their outlooks on life alter.
Although the show sounds cheesy, it’s a real feel-good season and features plenty of drag cameos throughout.

No! AJ and the Queen has been cancelled after just one season.
Given the popularity of the first season and the fact they left the series with many cliffhangers, some thought it likely that AJ and the Queen would return for a second season.
RuPaul tweeted on March 6th, 2020: “End of the road for “AJ and The Queen” @Netflix has decided to not extend our road trip across America. Thank you for all the love & support. We’re so very proud of the work.”
We’re sure this will come as disappointing news to both AJ and the Queen fans and RuPaul fans everywhere.
- SHANTE YOU STAY: Queens we need to see on Drag Race UK season 2.
