The third season of ''RuPaul's Drag Race'' began airing on January 24, 2011. Thirteen drag queens competed for the title of "America's Next Drag Superstar", a headlining spot on the Absolut Tour, a lifetime supply of Kryolan makeup, and a cash prize of $75,000, won by Raja on the fifteenth episode. This season had Michelle Visage replacing Merle Ginsberg at the judge's table and Billy Brasfield〔(【引用サイトリンク】first=Billy )〕 (better known as Billy B), Mike Ruiz, and Jeffrey Moran (courtesy of Absolut Vodka) filling in for Santino Rice's absence during several episodes. Billy B, celebrity makeup artist and star of the HGTV mini-series ''Hometown Renovation'', appeared as a judge in five episodes. Whereas Mike Ruiz only judged for two episodes, and Jeffrey Moran for one, Moran only appearing for promotional reasons. Due to Billy B's continued appearances, he and Rice are now considered to have been alternate judges for the same seat at the judges table, both appearing side-by-side in the reunion special to announce Yara Sofia as the season's Miss Congeniality.〔 Other changes made included the introduction of a wildcard contestant from the past season, Shangela Laquifa Wadley; an episode with no elimination; and a contestant, Carmen Carrera, being brought back into the competition after having been eliminated a few episodes prior. A new pit crew was also introduced consisting of Jason Carter and Shawn Morales. The theme song playing during the runway every episode was changed to "Champion" while the song playing during the credits is "Main Event", both from RuPaul's album ''Champion''. As with the previous season, each week's episode was followed by a behind-the-scenes show, ''RuPaul's Drag Race: Untucked''. On December 6, 2011 Amazon.com released this season on DVD via their CreateSpace program.〔(【引用サイトリンク】first=Dill )〕 ==Contestants== The drag queens who competed to be "America's Next Drag Superstar" for season three of ''RuPaul's Drag Race'' are: ''(Ages and names stated are at time of contest)'' : The contestant won ''RuPaul's Drag Race''. : The contestant was the runner-up of ''RuPaul's Drag Race''. : The contestant was eliminated in third place without lip-syncing. : The contestant was voted Miss Congeniality by viewers. : The contestant won a challenge. : The contestant was one of the best but did not win the challenge. : The contestant was one of the worst but was not in the bottom two. : The contestant was in the bottom two. : The contestant was eliminated. : The contestant did not participate in this episode. : The contestant returned as a guest for the finale episode. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RuPaul's Drag Race (season 3)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
