ABOUT SASHA VELOUR

Sasha Velour has been a force in the international drag scene long before her scene-stealing, rose-petal-filled win on season nine of “RuPaul’s Drag Race.”  As a modern-day pioneer of innovative, emotive, and provocative drag aesthetics, Velour continues to raise the bar for the art of drag performance across the globe.

Velour is most notably recognized as the winner of season nine of the Emmy-nominated “RuPaul’s Drag Race” on VH1 in 2017.  Her lip-sync performance to Whitney Houston’s “So Emotional” made history for the competition series, hailed as “the performance of the year” by The A.V. Club and named one of “TV’s Best Musical Moments on Television” by Entertainment Weekly. The act cleverly featured an elaborate reveal full of rose petals hidden in her gloves and wig and is now widely regarded as one of the most iconic performances in the show’s history, having contributed to a 500% increase in streaming plays of the song that summer and catapulted Velour’s star power into publications such as Vogue, ELLE, Rolling Stone, and The New York Times, to name just a few. T

o this day, many “RuPaul’s Drag Race” aficionados still rank Velour as an all-time top contestant on the series (with over 17 regular US seasons) and queens across the world still flock to Velour for her iconic looks and prized makeup technique.
