| List of episodes | |
On February 20, 2020, the show's official Twitter account announced the season premiere date of June 5, 2020, on Showtime.[2] Following the cast announcement on May 8, 2020, producers announced that the show would instead air on VH1 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused "various scheduling and programming adjustments".[3][4]
The official trailer announced a change in the elimination rules: Unlike seasons 2, 3, and 4 of All Stars, only a single challenge winner is named each week. The winning queen then lip syncs for her legacy against a guest Lip Sync Assassin from a previous season. If the challenge winner wins the lip sync, she gains the power to eliminate one of the queens in the bottom and win a $10,000 prize. If the Assassin wins, the eliminated queen is determined after a majority vote by the rest of the contestants, and the $10,000 prize rolls over to further episodes until a contestant wins the lip sync.
The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars received a one-year supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills Cosmetics and a cash prize of $100,000. All Stars 5 was the first All Stars season since All Stars 1 to have an Untucked aftershow. Shea Couleé was declared the winner, with Jujubee and Miz Cracker named runners-up.
Jujubee later on competed on RuPaul's Drag Race: UK vs the World, placing 3rd alongside Baga Chipz. Shea Couleé later competed on the seventh season of All Stars, the first all-winners season of Drag Race, placing 3rd alongside Trinity The Tuck

Ten all-stars enter the workroom. RuPaul comes in and introduces a new twist happening for the season. Instead of the top two all-stars lip-syncing for their legacy, only one all-star will be the winning queen of the week. That winner will lip-sync against a secret lip-sync assassin. All queens will then vote for which bottom all-star of the week should get eliminated. If the all-star wins the lip-sync, their chosen lipstick decides who to eliminate from the competition.

Blair St. Clair and Jujubee win the mini-challenge. For the main challenge, the queens must perform a talent in front of the judges and a live audience.
