Shantay, you stay! Unless, of course, it’s your time to sashay away. This Friday, the sequins settle and the wigs come off (maybe) as “RuPaul’s Drag Race” crowns its Season 17 winner. After weeks of fierce competition, the top queens will face their final test, vying for the coveted title and a grand prize of $200,000.

Expect an evening of spectacular performances, dramatic lip syncs, and the kind of high-stakes runway showdowns that have made “Drag Race” a global phenomenon. And as a special treat, the one and only Liza Minnelli joins RuPaul on stage, adding a touch of old-school Hollywood glamour to the proceedings.
