The sixth annual Critics Choice Real TV Awards nominations were unveiled, and MTV’s RuPaul’s Drag Race and Peacock’s The Traitors lead the pack.

Both competition series coincide in the Best Competition Series and Best Ensemble Cast in an Unscripted Series categories. RuPaul and Alan Cumming will vie for Best Show Host and Male Star of the Year for their respective shows.

Drag Race also scored a nod in the Best Lifestyle Show: Fashion/Beauty category, while The Traitors star Phaedra Parks picked up a Female Star of the Year nom.

“The historic strikes by the WGA and SAG/AFTRA necessitated a record amount of unscripted programming in all areas of television, from broadcast to cable to streaming, making the last 12 months a remarkable time for reality TV,” noted Critics Choice Association TV Branch Vice President Ed Martin. “The depth and diversity of our nominees for the sixth annual Real TV Awards reflects the importance and ever-increasing scope of the genre, which continues to offer something for everyone.”

Other nominated shows include Lego Masters, America’s Got Talent, Top Chef, Password, The Golden Bachelor, The Masked Singer, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Squid Game: The Challenge, American Idol, Queer Eye, So You Think You Can Dance, Dancing with the Stars, Dr. Pimple Popper, The Reluctant Traveler with Eugene Levy, Animals Up Close with Bertie Gregory, Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show, Ugliest House in America, The Voice, Selena + Restaurant, and Vanderpump Rules.

Winners will be revealed in a ceremony on June 15 at the Fairmont Century Plaza. The winners are chosen by a vote of the CCA membership, who will receive ballots via email on May 20. Fan voting for Male and Female Star of the Year, Best Ensemble Cast and Best Show Host will also begin on May 20 at criticschoice.com.
