The 16th season of RuPaul's Drag Race is coming to an end with top 3 finalists Nymphia Wind, Plane Jane, and Sapphira Cristál — and let's just say that the race is tighter than it's been in a very long time!
When it comes to track records, both Plane and Sapphira have won four maxi challenges and each had to lip sync for their lives one time. Alternately, Nymphia has won three maxi challenges and never had to lip sync for her life on the show. In terms of storylines, all three queens have demonstrated polish, charisma, talent, and a captivating arc that would justify their crowning.
The final decision is always RuPaul's to make, but it certainly helps to have the Drag Race fans on your side. So let's break down how the fandom is engaging with the official social media pages from the show, and find out which queen is winning the popular vote two days before the finale!
Scroll through to check out which queens are getting the most engagement on social media to win RuPaul's Drag Race season 16 — and tune into the grand finale this Friday, April 19 on MTV.
