With Jinkx Monsoon's Season 5 win firmly a thing of the past, anticipation for Season 6 of "RuPaul's Drag Race" has reached near fever pitch. While Logo hasn't even announced a premiere date (though the new season will likely follow those that have come before it and bow late January, 2014), the show is rumored to be currently in production, causing a flurry of casting rumors.
A website called Buzzsauce claims to have determined which 12 drag queens will be gunning for the title in Season 6, utilizing the very scientific method of noting who has been quiet on social media. Below are the dozen names thought to be filming now, though be sure to take it all with a grain of salt.
1. Adriana Le Glam
It's noted that this fishy (meaning: very feminine) queen from NYC, while rumored to be on the show, has remained quite active on social media. So, there goes that whole process Buzzsauce used.

"RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 5 came to a close on Monday (May 6), with RuPaul crowning America's Next Drag Superstar from the final three made up of Jinkx Monsoon, Alaska and Roxxxy Andrews. So, who did Ru crown and award the $100,000?
After the hour-and-a-half reunion that saw each queen from the season take her place in the hot seat opposite Ru (more on that below), the crown was placed firmly on the head of Jinkx Monsoon, the campy, narcoleptic fan favorite from Seattle.
Jinkx entered the competition with a strong comedic ability and, though she occasionally struggled with her fashion and endured some nasty criticism from the season's pageant queens, she endeared herself to fans and Ru herself with her hilarious, campy presence.
Before learning she'd won, Ru asked Jinkx how she felt since taping concluded. The champ replied, "I think I've entered Jinkx 2.0: The butterfly phase." And how right she was.

The second episode of RuPaul's Drag Race's fifth season delighted us with a quirky, unexpected challenge: The 13 remaining queens were tasked with reenacting classic moments from the past four seasons of Drag Race. The challenge called for precise lip-sync skills and dramatic acting chops from everyone, and it's clear whose pantomime was worthier of kudos from guest judges Kristen Johnston and Juliette Lewis: Lineysha Sparx walked off with the title for her dead-on, hilarious impersonation of Tyra Sanchez (though it helped that the resemblance was uncanny), and beleaguered Panamanian queen Serena ChaCha, a.k.a. Myron Morgan, ended up in the bottom two thanks to her uninspired take on Raja. After surviving last week's survival lip-sync, Serena lost to Monica Beverly Hillz in a final performance of Rihanna's "Only Girl (in the World)."
We caught up with Serena to discuss her rapport with the other queens, being the youngest competitor,...

RuPaul's Drag Race kicked off its fifth season with a gigantic fishtank photo shoot and a dumpster-diving fashion show, two challenges that require stunt athleticism and survival instincts. While Roxxxy Andrews ran off with the season's first victory, it was hard to celebrate knowing that the episode's loser was the instantly likable Penny Tration, a.k.a. Tony Cody from Cincinnati, Oh. Penny was voted onto RuPaul's Drag Race by fans (even though another queen named Adore Delano, a.k.a the fabulous Danny Noriega from season seven of American Idol , garnered more votes but wasn't selected as a contestant for undisclosed reasons), and thus her potential seemed unlimited. Unfortunately, a couture challenge and a Miley Cyrus lip-sync snafu sent her sashaying away, and now we're left to discuss the whole ordeal with the lovely queen herself.
We talked to Penny about the exhausting nature of the show, wearing heels for 10 hours,...
