“Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World” season 2 cast of queens revealed: Bam! Alexis Mateo is back, baby

Eureka, Kennedy Davenport, Lemon, and Cheryl Hole return to compete for Canada's second international all-star edition of "Drag Race."

Your Canadian bacon is about to be candied, as nine returning contestants will sash-eh north among the Canada's Drag Race: Canada vs. the World season 2 cast of queens.

Revealed Wednesday amid a flurry of imagery that recalls RuPaul's Drag Race season 4's fan-favorite WTF!: Wrestling's Trashiest Fighters wrestling/acting challenge hybrid, the queens of Canada vs. the World season 2 represent four different global Drag Race franchises including three from Canada, three from the United States, two from the United Kingdom, and one from France.

Among the queens are season 3 All Stars 1, and All Stars 5 icon Alexis Mateo, who bams her way back to the competition as a four-time competitor vying for the international all-star crown. Fellow American Drag Race competitors joining Canada vs. the World season 2 are season 9, season 10, and All Stars 6 queen Eureka (also taking her fourth shot at the title), and Kennedy Davenport, the season 7 legend who ultimately finished All Stars 3 as the runner-up behind Trixie Mattel.

Competing for Canada are Miss Fiercalicious (queen of the number four, from season 3), as well as season 1 breakouts Lemon and Tynomi Banks.

Rounding out the Canada vs. the World season 2 cast are RuPaul's Drag Race UK stars Cheryl Hole (who previously appeared on both Drag Race UK season 1 and Drag Race UK vs. the World season 1) and Le Fil (UK season 4), and Drag Race France season 1 performer La Kahena.

Head judge (and season 11 queen) Brooke Lynn Hytes will again preside over the panel, alongside fellow judges Brad Goreski and Traci Melchor.

"Hello! I'm back bitches! How do you spell icon? A-L-E-X-I-S. If you don't know my name, you don't know nothing," Alexis says in her cast reveal video (above). "You want drama? You came to the right place, because I'm going to give it to you. If I don't like you, you're going to know. I can communicate in any language. I'm not here to play games. I'm going to do whatever it takes to get that crown on my head, baby."

Adds Kennedy in her own video: "I'm the dancing diva of Texas. No, I'm the dancing diva of the world, boo!"
