The 40-year-old TV personality started the show with excitement, and went on to introduce the contestants. "Hi guys! It's Britney, b****! Are y'all ready to see some talent?"

She began calling out names of the contestants, welcoming Dawn, Mirage, Amanda Tori Meating, Morphine Love Dion, Q, Sapphira Cristál, and Xunami Muse on stage.

"Stay tuned for an all-new episode of Pimp My Drag Mom. Bye, y'all!" she gushed.
