The winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 14 has been announced, and it’s Willow Pill. While many fans rejoiced at the result, some were upset that Lady Camden didn’t get the crown.

On April 22, VH1 aired the grand finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 14. It featured five finalists — Lady Camden, Willow Pill, Bosco, Daya Betty, and Angeria Paris VanMicheals. For the finale challenge, the queens had to deliver solo performances.

After five performances, RuPaul Charles announced that the top two performers would compete for the crown of 'America’s Next Drag Superstar’ via lip-sync battle. The top two finalists ended up being Lady Camden and Willow Pill.

After Charles announced the winner, fans of Camden were happy for Pill but also a bit disappointed that their favorite queen didn't come out on top.


What do fans have to say?

Lady Camden and Willow Pill performed their lip-sync battle to the song, Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! by ABBA. They looked gorgeous and impressed both the live audience and online viewers.

Camden's first look was of a pink horse, while Pill looked wonderful in red. Both of them delivered terrific performances in the lip-sync battle, but only one could be the winner.

When Pill was crowned, fans rejoiced and took over the internet to share their opinions. They also loved Lady Camden and wished there was a double crowning.

Here's a look at some fan reactions on Twitter:

RuPaul’s Drag Race season 14 finale was held in Las Vegas. RuPaul Charles hosted the event and was the only judge.

Throughout the season, Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, and Ross Matthews were seen on the judges’ panel. However, none of them were in the grand finale.

Visage did appear for five minutes to announce that the government of Las Vegas, Clark County named April 22 the RuPaul Day.

After RuPaul’s Drag Race season 14, VH1 will now replace the slot with RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 7 from next month.
