Santino Rice, a popular figure in the American fashion designing industry, has yet again appeared to stun his hardcore fans. He is a top judge to select winners on different American TV reality shows. This fashion designer emerged as a controversial judge who was present on ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race reality show.

After completing six seasons, he had to leave the chair, handing over the job responsibility to another competitor. The reasons for replacing Santino Rice are not clear as people are still searching for the answer!

Many of his fans believe that Santino had to face caustic failure due to his abrupt popularity, but many people criticized his lack of efficiency as a judge. He has little knowledge about drag culture. After his departure, the global media network brought this heavyweight under the scanner to reveal the truth behind his disappearance from ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race.

All about RuPaul's Drag Race

‘RuPaul’s Drag Race is a popular reality show. Here, all participants should be versatile in modeling, outfit designing, makeup, acting, and a drag show. Though it is a parody of ‘Project Runway’ and ‘America’s Next Top Model,’ it focuses on drag culture. Santino Rice became the honorable judge to select the top winner after the tough competition in this world-famous reality show.

Is It the Tough Competition Which Forced Santino Rice to Leave?

Santino Rice is not the only person who went back home handing over the job to another eminent fashion designer to lead ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race show.’ For example, Merle Ginsberg had to backtrack after participating in 2 seasons. In his absence, Michelle Visage came forward to entertain the audience.

For several years, Michelle, Ru, and Santino showed their performance to make people happy. However, Santino’s sudden debacle is a mishap. He was the fixture for ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race.’

However, his departure disheartened his fans, and they tried to discover the exact root cause. Experts are in doubt about Santino’s expertise in drag culture. Due to the tough competition, this renowned figure experienced an abrupt nosedive. He is not an excellent performer to assist the jury’s bench in selecting the best winner at the reality show!

From ‘Project Runway’ to ‘American Idol,’ people saw new faces. The change becomes part and parcel of American TV reality shows. Santino Rice was a legendary personality who won the hearts of millions of admirers in the past. His remarkable appearance made ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race reality show enjoyable.

In seasons – 1-3, the primary emphasis was on sewing and the making of Queen’s costumes. However, in the latter episodes, there was different demand. The judgment on the dress construction and chic did not get much importance.

Instead, viewers waited eagerly to watch the runway catwalk shows and drag culture. Santino lost his supremacy owing to his inadequate knowledge about the dragging culture.

Santino Rice is a true vegan who maintains a strict diet for body detoxification to survive in a tumultuous situation. He promotes his 111 days long fast to detoxify his body. He does not believe in modern medical science. In fact, he is not optimistic about the effectiveness of Covid vaccination.

He thinks that people have to opt for herbal treatment for rejuvenation. Naturally, the hard reality has not affected Santino severely. In a small Tweet message, he revealed his intention after getting the letter of suspension or replacement. He seems glad to have a switchover to another profession!

At present, Santino Rice is busy conducting dietary programs for wellness. Santino is grateful to RuPaul for his timely decision as he has ample projects in his pipeline for the new generation. He hopes that he will be back again with a new resolution to implement. He has accepted the raw truth, but that has never impacted his ambition or life goals!

Santino Rice now focuses on promoting healthy living

He’s since become a proponent of natural and healthy living. Last year, he appeared on an edition of “The Doctors” in order to promote his 111-Day Juice Fast (via YouTube). A couple of years ago, the blog DTLA Explorers revealed that Rice was working as the Remedy Bar Captain at a vegan restaurant called “Wild Living Foods” in Los Angeles.
