Bianca Del Rio, the alter ego of seasoned comic Roy Haylock and season 6 winner of RuPaul's Drag Race, is a self-professed "clown in a gown." This hilariously hateful comic is known for her foul mouth and unapologetic humor, but her victims hardly have time to feel the sting before she zips on to the next topic. Besides, Bianca is quick to point out that she's the biggest joke of all. The NY Times calls her "The Joan Rivers of the Drag World," and Joan Rivers herself called Bianca's humor "So funny! So sharp!" Bianca's first standup special, Rolodex of Hate, is now available on Vimeo OnDemand, as well as her first feature film "Hurricane Bianca".She's currently touring with her new comedy show Not Today Satan to sold out audiences all over the world
