Runner-up queen Lady Camden was awarded a $50,000 cash prize, also a franchise first - with both prizes powered by Cash App. Season 13's Miss Congeniality, LaLa Ri, passed down the title and a special prize of $10,000 sponsored by Olay Body, to Kornbread "The Snack" Jeté.

"Willow Pill has the soul of a true artist," said six-time Emmy(R) Award-winning Host and Executive Producer, RuPaul. "In the most competitive season ever, she stole our hearts and earned the crown. Willow is weird, wild and wonderful and she is exactly what the world needs now."

This season also introduced more unforgettable moments, including a new candy bar twist, where one lucky queen was saved from elimination after finding a golden ticket in her chocolate bar, an epic lip sync LaLaPaRuZa smackdown, "Moulin Ru" the musical, the Roast of Ross Mathews, and so many more.
