Now she’s focusing all of her passion on becoming America’s Next Drag Superstar.” No stranger to competition, Plane Jane was a competitive ballroom dancer as a child. Plane Jane is as glamorous as she is wickedly funny Boston-raised, but with Russian roots. Plane Jane (24, Boston, Mass.): “Fasten your seatbelts! Because yes, that is how you spell this diva’s name. Inspired by Asian culture, art and tradition, let’s hope she doesn’t slip up in the competition!” Nymphia Wind (27, Taiwan / New York): “Banana Time! RuPaul’s Drag Race’s first queen to hail from Taiwan, Nymphia came to the United States to build on her massive fanbase of ‘Banana Believers’ - a term given to her fans thanks to her signature color yellow, and penchant for the absurd. Now, she is the self-proclaimed ‘It Girl of Miami.’ Can this trained dancer– who has been featured in Maluma and Bad Bunny music videos– cha cha her way to the top of the competition?” ![]() Morphine started out doing makeup tutorials on social media.

RuPaul’s Drag Race’s first Mexican born queen, Geneva witnessed her parents’ struggles as they worked tirelessly to get her family safely to the United States in search of a better life. ![]() Designing and constructing almost all of her eccentric looks, this kooky and artistic queen always brings a story when she hits the stage… and she’s hoping for a happy ending at Drag Race!” Dawn (24, Brooklyn, N.Y.): “The self-described ‘ethereal elf goddess of Brooklyn,’ Dawn is a fitting name for a queen who often stays up late enough to see the sunrise.
