From Bangkok to the Mainstage: Meet Manúk + the Pit Crew Turning Heads on RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 10

From Bangkok to the Mainstage: Meet Manúk + the Pit Crew Turning Heads on RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 10

RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 10 stormed onto our screens with a double-episode premiere that gave the fans everything — and we mean everything. Queens came ready to slay, the drama hit new highs, and the Pit Crew? They didn’t just show up — they owned the moment. But among the familiar smiles and sculpted abs, one new face had fans double-tapping their screens: Manuel Kornisiuk, aka Manúk — the Argentine-born, Australia-based model, actor, musician, and now, Pit Crew heartthrob you need to know.

From Small-Town Dreamer to Global Stage

Born in Santa Rosa, Argentina, Manúk has been chasing big dreams since day one. After high school, he made the bold move to Australia — a decision that sparked his rise across modeling, acting, and music.

While Drag Race introduced him to many, Manúk’s been making waves under his musical name, blending R&B smoothness with Latin flair and racking up thousands of Spotify fans worldwide. With tracks like “Overstimulated” and “No Brainer,” he’s not just flexing on camera — he’s building a creative career with heart and hustle.

Pit Crew Chaos, Fashion Moments & Cheeky Fun

All Stars 10 didn’t hold back with its premiere — dropping two episodes back-to-back and launching a fresh Tournament of All Stars format. Queens like Ginger Minj, Mistress Isabelle Brooks, Plastique Tiara, Bosco, and Angeria Paris VanMicheals brought the heat, but the Pit Crew turned up the mischief.

One of the season’s most hilarious moments? A memory game challenge that had queens matching pairs of Pit Crew members. Yes, it was as cheeky and chaotic as it sounds — and it gave Manúk his breakout moment alongside Bryce and Bruno. Fans were living.

Fashion Notes: A Subtle Spark from ThePack

Amid the Werk Room fun and mini-challenge chaos, the Pit Crew delivered more than just charm — they quietly raised the style bar. Sharp-eyed fans may have noticed select pieces from ThePack’s latest collection making an appearance, adding just the right touch of edge and confidence to their looks.

It’s a small but meaningful detail that fits right into the season’s unapologetically bold and joyful vibe.

Why We’re Obsessed (and You Should Be Too)

Werk Room Energy
 Beyond the challenges, the Pit Crew’s flirty glances and playful banter light up the Werk Room. Whether dropping in for a cheeky exchange or sharing a laugh with the queens, they keep the mood upbeat and help balance the tension of the competition. It’s these unscripted moments that remind us why the Pit Crew is such a beloved part of Drag Race lore.

Mini-Challenge Mischief
The mini-challenges this season have delivered nonstop fun, and the Pit Crew has been right at the center of it. From the now-iconic memory game to playful assists with props, they’ve brought just the right mix of charm and chaos, turning quick challenges into must-watch moments. Their presence adds humor, chemistry, and a bit of cheeky magic that keeps both queens and fans on their toes.

Fashion That Slaps
 The queens aren’t the only ones turning looks this season. The Pit Crew has been quietly serving, too — from sleek armbands to daring straps, their outfits bring a stylish edge that complements the show’s bold spirit. These aren’t just outfits; they’re a celebration of queer fashion, adding polish and punch to every scene.

Manúk’s Breakout
Manúk has emerged as the breakout face of the Pit Crew, blending vulnerability, talent, and quiet star power. More than just a heartthrob, he’s bringing an authenticity that resonates with fans. Whether handing out challenge props or making waves with his music off-screen, Manúk feels like a rising star we’ll be watching long after this season wraps.

Final Take: More Than Muscles

What’s making All Stars 10 so fun isn’t just the queens or the chaos — it’s the sense that everyone, from the mainstage to the sidelines, is part of the celebration.

Manúk’s arrival adds a fresh spark, the Pit Crew is flexing in more ways than one, and the fashion (trust us, keep an eye out) is everything. And as always, ThePack is proud to be woven into the moment, reminding us all that queer joy, style, and community are what really make the show shine.
