Watch the queens' finale looks in exclusive Drag Race season 16 preview clip

Category is: grand finale eleganza!
Out has the exclusive sneak peek of all 14 queens sashaying their way into the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race season 16. In order of elimination, Hershii LiqCour Jeté, Mirage, Amanda Tori Meating, Geneva Karr, Megami, Xunami Muse, Plasma, Mhi'ya Iman Le'Paige, Dawn, Morphine Love Dion, and Q walk into the main stage to the tune of RuPaul's "Hustle That Cat."
The eliminated queens are followed by the top 3 finalists. Nymphia Wind comes in with a gag-worthy banana costume that reveals itself into a dazzling yellow dress. Plane Jane serves *drama* and Russian heritage in a sparkling red gown that makes her look like royalty. Sapphira Cristál is ready for battle in a warrior queen costume that declares she is fighting for this throne.
You can watch this first-look at the Drag Race season 16 finale below.
The race to win Drag Race has never been this tighter. Nymphia's popularity with the fandom is undeniable, which gives her a comfortable lead in terms of social media engagement. In the competition, Nymphia has won three challenges and never had to lip sync for her life.
Plane was understood as the "villain" of the season from her very first appearance in season 16. However, she then embarked on a redemption arc that included four maxi challenge wins and only one lip-sync bottom placement in the very last episode.
With a track record that includes four wins and only one time lip syncing for her life, Sapphira has been the clearest frontrunner throughout the competition. She is arguably still the strongest contender even in this top 3… but it's all down to this final lap of the race.
One thing is clear: this Drag Race finale is unlike anything we've ever seen, and we're absolutely ready for the goops and the gags!
The grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race season 16 airs tonight on MTV.
