Watch: Sasha Colby Wins 'Drag Race,' and Jinkx Monsoon Steals the Show

"RuPaul's Drag Race" crowned its Season 15 winner on Friday, but it was Jinkx Monsoon who dazzled. The winner is Sasha Colby, who defeated Anetra, Luxx Noir London, and Mistress Isabelle Brooks. Colby was a front-runner throughout the competition, winning four challenges, and handily showed Anetra who was the boss during their lipsynch of Amii Stewart's "Knock on Wood" with her impeccable technique and sexy narrative. Colby won the coveted title of "America's Next Drag Superstar" and $200,000. She was crowned by last year's winner, Willow Pill.

"Sasha Colby is the kind of talent that comes around once in a generation," said RuPaul, writes Deadline. "She embodies all the qualities of America's Next Drag Superstar and so much more. Anetra, Luxx Noir London and Mistress Isabelle Brooks each put up an incredible fight for the crown, but in the end Sasha proved to be unbeatable. Long may she reign!"

Cash App.Season 14's Miss Congeniality, Kornbread The Snack Jeté, passed down the title and a special prize of $10,000 sponsored by Olay Body, to Malaysia Babydoll Foxx. Olay Body also awarded the remaining queens $2,000 each to celebrate the season.

But it was Jinkx Monsoon, a two-time "RPDR" winner in 2013 and 2022 ("All Stars"), who defined "iconic" with her performance of "When You're Good for Mama" from "Chicago." "Upon joining the Chicago cast at the top of 2023, Jinkx became the first drag artist to play Mama Morton – a role inhabited by Queen Latifah in the Best Picture-winning 2002 movie adaptation – on the Great White Way. The 'Drag Race' alum earned stellar reviews for her performance, and reportedly," writes Entertainment Weekly.

After her performance, Jinkx was joined by RuPaul who shared a throwback clip "of Jinkx's Tic Tac lunch from season 5, which aired in 2013, that featured the queen being asked about her career goal," reports EW.

"It's been my life dream, ever since I started doing drag, to do drag on Broadway," past Jinkx shared in the clip.

"Well, dreams really do come true," RuPaul said to an emotional Jinkx watching the clip at Friday's finale.

"Ru, thank you for all that you have done for me and for drag queens everywhere and for the world of drag," present-day Jinkx said. "It's like drag gave me a path to make my dreams come true. ... It's amazing when you know what you're supposed to be and you fight for the ability to be that, and then you be that, and it's exactly who you're supposed to be."

"I'm so proud of you. It's wonderful," Ru could be heard whispering to Jinkx as they parted.
