Whatcha Packin' is an aftershow for RuPaul's Drag Race and its All Stars and Down Under spin-offs, hosted by Michelle Visage, who acts as a main judge for all three series.[1][2] Its first season was aired in conjunction with the sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race.[3]
Whatcha Packin' features Visage interviewing each contestant on a particular season as they are eliminated, or, in the case of finalists, before the season finale airs. The show is an opportunity for the contestant to discuss their drag, their journey in the competition, and their experience after filming the show, as well as showcase some runway looks they were unable to wear on the show.[4]
The series is sometimes known by alternative names. For the second season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars it was called The Final Lap, whereas for the first two seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under it was known as How's Your Head, Queen?.[5]
