Season chronology

The fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race began airing on January 27, 2013, with a 90-minute premiere episode. It had the most contestants since the creation of the show with fourteen.

As this season's winner, Jinkx Monsoon walked away with the title of "America's Next Drag Superstar" along with a sickening supply of Colorevolution Cosmetics, a one-of-a-kind trip courtesy of AlandChuck.travel, a headlining spot on Logo's Drag Race Tour featuring Absolut Vodka and a cash prize of $100 000. Santino Rice and Michelle Visage were back as judges at the panel.[1]

The theme song playing during the runway every episode is "I Bring the Beat", while the song playing during the credits is "The Beginning", both songs are from RuPaul's album Glamazon.

This is the first-ever series in the show's history to feature a double elimination between two contestants, Honey Mahogany and Vivienne Pinay. It is also the first series to feature a queen, Coco Montrese, lip-sync for their life four times before being eliminated and the first series where RuPaul allowed fans to vote for a winner.

The winner of the fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race was Jinkx Monsoon, with Alaska and Roxxxy Andrews being the runners-up, and Ivy Winters being crowned season 5's Miss Congeniality.
