Trivia[]

    • The first Drag Race ever to have separated main challenge winner and runway challenge winner.
    • The third non-All Stars season where every queen was in the bottom at least once.
    • The third season of Drag Race to have a plus sized queen in the Top 3, and the first to have a plus-sized queen win the competition.
    • The season with the lowest cash prize in the history of the franchise, at 15,920.
  • Amadiva is the first queen ever to be in both double shantay and double elimination.
    • She was followed by Kana Warrior, although Kana was eliminated first, and then returned and had a double shantay with Angele Anang
  • JAJA is the only queen to not be from Thailand, she is from the Philippines and does not actually speak Thai.
  • Meannie Minaj is the first transgender queen on Drag Race Thailand, and the second queen to enter as an openly trans woman on Drag Race (See: Peppermint).
  • Morrigan is the youngest queen to ever compete on any Drag Race, at 18 years of age.
  • Born This Way and Toxic are the third and fourth songs to be used in two different lipsyncs, they were first used on Season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race.
  • The studio set was built in one day.
  • The lip sync assassin of Drag Race Thailand Season 1 is Dearis Doll. Dearis eliminated Morrigan and B Ella.
  • Episode 3 was recorded on January 15th, 2018, as Morrigan's elimination was on her birthday.
  • Drag Race Thailand is the only international spin-off to not follow the Official Drag Race logo format
    • This is due to the fact that the letter "G" is the stylized letter of the logo instead of it being the letter "R"
  • Thailand Season 1 is the first international season to have a double shantay.
  • The season premiered in the U.S. on May 4th, 2018, almost a month after it's Finale, on the Wow Presents Plus app[1].
