"HERstory of the World" is the third episode of season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars, which aired in 2016 and features a musical theatre challenge (known within the Drag Race franchise as a Rusical).
"HERstory of the World" was the season's first hour-long episode.[1] In the Rusical, Alaska Thunderfuck, Alyssa Edwards, Detox, roxxxy Andrews, and Ginger Minj portray a Britney Spears-inspired Eve,[2] Annie Oakley, Marie Antoinette, Eva peron, and Catherine the Great, respectively.[3] Katya portrays Princess Diana,[4] and Phi Phi O'Hara portrays Helen of Troy.[5]
"Herstory" refers to the history of Drag Race.[6] As of early 2021, the Rusical was among the top five most-watched RuPaul's Drag Race performances of all time on YouTube, with approximately 4.5 million views.[7]
Reception
Stephen Daw of Billboard wrote, "While it was far from the first Rusical, HERstory of the World certainly helped cement the Rusical's status as a mainstay challenge on Drag Race, thanks to how exceedingly well it was executed."[4] In 2020, Bernardo Sim of Screen Rant deemed the Rusical among the show's worst and said "HERstory of the World" was "messy".[8]
