Bob the Drag Queen returns as The Pit Stop host for RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7

EW can exclusively reveal that the Drag Race season 8 champion will again host The Pit Stop review show through the all-winners edition of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7.

But is it fashion? It's fashion — and purse — first for The Pit Stop, as EW can exclusively reveal that RuPaul's Drag Race season 8 champion Bob the Drag Queen will return to host the fan-favorite review show throughout the upcoming all-winners season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7.

Following a two-year absence from the series' lead role, Bob is set to reclaim her throne at the helm of the weekly YouTube-based recap show that welcomes past Drag Race contestants as guests to dish on the latest episode's best (and worst) looks, explosive moments, and more. This year, new episodes will premiere Saturdays at noon ET on the RuPaul's Drag Race YouTube channel, with more extra material rolling out on the new Pit Stop TikTok page.

Though Bob has been a regular guest on The Pit Stop's editions spanning season 13, All Stars 6, and season 14, the All Stars 7 installments mark Bob's first time in the host's chair since kiki-ing with the queens over the All Stars 5 competition back in 2020.

Fans have regularly praised Bob's performance on The Pit Stop, with several of the queen's interactions with guests becoming iconic memes among the Drag Race community — particularly the hilarious "it's fashion" exchange with season 9 finalist Peppermint.

Bob joins The Pit Stop just in time to see her longtime Sibling Rivalry podcast cohost and All Stars 4 victor Monét X Change take to the All Stars 7 competition as part of the franchise's first-ever season featuring an all-winners cast.

Speaking to EW in an interview tied to our recent AS7 cover story, Monét revealed that Bob helped her prepare to return to the competition.

"Bob has done nothing but help me for all-winners season," she said. "He came over and gave me a little pep talk, right as they were coming over to whisk me away, Bob was at my home speaking gallons of wisdom into me before I left because my sister knows what her friend needs. Because of him, I felt good going into all-winners."

Monét also teased that AS7 might finally see her wearing a storied sweater that Bob had custom-made for her two years ago.

"I still have the sweater that Bob the Drag Queen lovely and graciously got me for my birthday," Monét told EW of the garment that's become a point of contention on their podcast. "Maybe if you guys watch enough all-winners, you might see it on TV."
