María Edilia (13th + Miss Congeniality)
Age: 41
From: Caracas, Venezuela
"Desde niña soñé con este momento. Soy María Edilia, de edad y dimensiones desconocidas, y gracias a Drag Race España hoy puedo gritar... ¡Venezuela!" note
- Big Beautiful Woman: She's this season's curviest queen.
- Experienced Protagonist: At 41 years, and having done drag for over 20 years, she is one of the season's most experienced queens.
- Fluffy Fashion Feathers: For the Lost Look in the Reunion, María Edilia presents her Show Your Feathers runway, a more comedic take on the category in which she wears a full-body pink chicken feather dress, with one of her arms made out to look like the chicken's head, and pretending to lay a golden egg on the runway.
- Graceful Loser: Despite going out first, she takes the experience as a learning opportunity.
- Nice Girl: She is voted the season's Miss Congeniality in the Reunion by her fellow competitors.
- Shout-Out: Her entrance look is a dragged-up version of the woman who appears in the packaging of the famous Venezuelan maize flour compay, P.A.N., an iconic logo in Venezuela and Latin America.
- That Syncing Feeling: For the Talent Show, she performs an old-timey Sexy Secretary comedy routine. However, she is noticeably out of sync with the track that plays over the performance (at one point the sound of a slap comes out almost a full second after she mimes slapping her boss) landing her in the bottom 2 against Chuchi.
- The Bus Came Back: She makes a cameo in episode 4's acting challenge playing infamous Spanish Youtuber Etsy Quesada, better known as "soyunapringada".
- Toros y Flamenco: For the Spain Is Different runway, she wears a traditional flamenco dancer outfit made out of different polka dot fabrics. However, the judges deem the outfit both a bit frumpy and rather obvious and unimaginative for the category, which contributes to her landing in the bottom 2 and subsequent elimination.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: Crashes out dead last when her variety act for the Talent Show in the premiere doesn’t cut it.
Drag Chuchi (12th)
Age: 32
From: Las Palmas, Canary Islands
"Hagan sus apuestas, que Chuchi viene dispuesta. ¡Bú!" note
- Ambiguous Gender: She describes her aesthetic as a combination of the masculine and the feminine, best exemplified by often showing her bald head on the runway, rather than wearing a wig.
- Disco Dan: Her outfit for the Spain is Different runway is a disco ball covering her entire body, which she then opens to reveal a skimpy star-covered getup, representing Spain's love of partying.
- Edible Theme Clothing: For the Lost Look in the Reunion, Chuchi presents her look for the "Flavors" category of the Great Ball of Regions, based on the Canary Islands' trademark bananas (its main agricultural export), entering the runway in a green dress and a banana leaf-print cloak, only to whip it all off to reveal a yellow bodysuit with black spots.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she pays homage to Spain's 1988 contestants, quartet "La Década Prodigiosa", coming out in a half-and-half suit representing the group's two male singers, before revealing into a half-and-half dress representing the group's two female singers. However, the judges criticize the look for looking baggy and ill-fitting, contributing to her landing in the bottom 2.
- High-Heel Power: As the season's Canarian queen, she often wears the traditional Canarian massive platform heels, causing her to positively tower over her fellow competitors.
- Hunk: Out of drag, Chuchi is a well-built, handsome man, much to the delight of her fellow queens.
- So Okay, It's Average: In-universe. Her Talent Show number is a classic Canary Islands drag performance and, while the judges find it okay, they note it fails to live up to the level of polish and spectacle set by her predecessor Drag Sethlas in a similar performance in Season 2's Talent Show, landing Chuchi in the bottom 2.
- Straight Gay: Out of drag, Chuchi is rather masculine and lacks any stereotipically gay traits, something the other queens note while discussing femininity and flamboyance in the werkroom.
- Wardrobe Malfunction: In both episodes 1 and 2, Chuchi pops her tuck while performing a split, a detail that does not escape the judges, landing her in the bottom and leading to her elimination.
Chanel Anorex (11th)
Age: 32
From: Salamanca, Castile and León
"Si váis a ponerme verde, ya lo he hecho yo por vosotras." note
- Alpha Bitch: Chanel is definitely the season's shadiest queen, often delivering biting remarks about the other queens in confessionals.
- Blood Is the New Black: For episode 1's Talent Show, she lipsyncs to "Cannibal" by Kesha while wearing a campy werewolf suit, culminating with the dancers absolutely drenching her in blood.
- Creepy Cute: In-universe. She proudly presents herself as the season's 'monster queen', but also notes that her aesthetic is usually more colorful and campy, rather than based on pure horror.
- Crippling Overspecialization: Her strict adherence to her campy drag monster aesthetic at times makes her really stretch runway categories. This becomes her downfall in the Great Ball of Regions, where her self-made look, which is supposed to be a reinterpretation on the Basque Country's regional outfit, strays so far into Space Cadet territory that it becomes almost unrecognizable, leading to Chanel landing in the bottom and being eliminated.
- Edible Theme Clothing: For the "Flavors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she presents a look based on strawberries, of which Spain is one of the world's main producers and exporters, in a red polka dot dress with stuffed worms eating her and a wig reveal into a strawberry-covered brain. However, the judges read the look's fabric and accessories for looking rather cheap and tacky, contributing to Chanel's elimination.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she portrays Spain's 2014 contestant, Ruth Lorenzo, and her song "Dancing In The Rain", though she camps things up by presenting Ruth as a soaking-wet corpse that has been singing under the eponymous rain for so long that plants have begun to grow on her body.
- Shout-Out: Her entrance look is a Rule 63, Cowboy-dressed version of The Hulk.
- Skeletons in the Coat Closet: For the "Colors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she chooses to portray her native Salamanca's "Piedra de Villamayor", a gold-hued sandstone tipically used to construct most of the city's monuments and public buildings, in a gold-and-sandy colored gown with a golden skull mask.
- Villainous Harlequin: For the Lost Look in the Reunion, Chanel presents her My Worst Me runway, in a beautiful red velvet harlequin outfit while carrying two mirrors with sad and angry faces, to represent intrusive thoughts.
The Macarena (10th)
Age: 31
From: San Fernando de Cádiz, Andalusia
"¿Qué pasa, maricones? Este año no he traído chicharrones, que dan mala suerte." note
- Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: For the Lost Look in the Reunion, Macarena presents her Illusion runway, using makeup mimicking a nose and mouth on her forehead and a wig covering the lower half of her face to make it seem like her head is upside down.
- Bad Impressionists: For the Snatch Game, Macarena takes a big swing by portraying beloved, larger-than-life Spanish LGBT+ icon Paca La Piraña, whom both Supremme and the Javis know VERY well note , but while she has the voice down, her jokes fall flat and she's far too low energy to nail Paca's rambunctious personality, which ends up placing her in the bottom against Pakita and leading to her elimination.
- Book Ends: Just like in season 1, The Macarena is eliminated after lipsyncing to a Mónica Naranjo song.
- Call-Back: As the season's returning queen, she frequently references her previous appearance in season 1.
- Her entrance quote is similar to her first one, adjusted to wryly acknowledge her previous bad performance. Her elimination quote is also almost the same as her first one.
- Her My Worst Me runway is a much improved recreation of the outfit she was eliminated on, and she also only wears a wig cap to reference her wig falling off in the lipsync.
- In a reference to season 2 instead, when she finally places in the top in episode 4, she proudly proclaims the end of the "Macarena curse" and jokingly calls out her drag mother Samantha Ballentines, who after also landing in the bottom in the first episode of season 2 wondered if her drag daughter had cursed her.
- Dirty Old Woman: For the "Regions" category in the Great Ball of Regions, while representing La Rioja, she decides to play up a character to make up for the outfit's simplicity, appearing on the runway as a stereotypical Spanish judgy old lady, but then reveals into a tight leotard and comedically attempts to seduce the judges.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she walks the runway as 1989 contestant Nina, dragging up her pink dress with black bows with a more dramatic silhouette and a huge bow on her back.
- Fluffy Fashion Feathers: For the Show Your Feathers runway, she walks out wearing an absolutely massive peacock feather headpiece, as well as a blue jacket with feather adornments, though the fact that from the waist down she's just wearing a simple blue panty makes the judges read the outfit as looking unfinished.
- Hollywood Tone-Deaf: Her attempt at live singing at episode 1's Talent Show winds up as this due to her nerves, with voice cracks and out-of-range notes aplenty, and only a strong runway saves her from lipsyincing.
- Magical Nanny: For episode 4's acting challenge, she plays an Affectionate Parody of Mary Poppins that is comedically mismatched to the skit's horror film inspiration, and manages to dominate the scene so thoroughly that she makes up for her scene partners' (Clover and Visa) woeful acting, finally netting her a top placement.
- My Greatest Second Chance: As the very first queen to be eliminated in the Drag Race España franchise, The Macarena has been given a rare second chance to prove herself again.
- One Degree of Separation: Her drag mother is Season 2's Miss Congeniality Samantha Ballentines.
- Sea Hurtchin: Her outfit for the "Flavors" category in the Great Ball of Regions is based on a sea urchin, a traditional dish in her native Cádiz, in a black, purple and orange bodysuit with spikes on her shoulders and hips.
- Throw the Dog a Bone: After both being the first queen ever eliminated in Drag Race España and a middling start to the season (being low in episode 1 and otherwise safe), Macarena finally gets her flowers in episode 4, where her performance in the challenge and runway earn her a spot in the top and great critiques from the judges.
- Toros y Flamenco: For the Spain Is Different runway, Macarena goes with a very political look that criticizes bullfighting, in a floor-length black flamenco dress and horned wig to symbolize the bull, with several "banderillas" note piercing her back. She then suddenly cries out in pain and takes off the front of her dress to reveal the line "La tortura no es cultura" note written on her chest. The look's message is so powerful that the judges admit that it is the only reason Macarena is saved from lipsyncing despite her dreadful live singing at the Talent Show.
Visa (9th + Miss Lost Look)
Age: 34
From: Tampico, Mexico
"¡Tequila, chilito y calor, la reina Azteca ya llegó!" note
- Achilles' Heel: Acting is just not Visa's strong suit. Her performance in episode 4's acting challenge is deemed the worst of the night, the only thing saving her from the bottom being her strong runway, and another middling performance in episode 6's musical challenge lands her in the bottom against Clover, who sends her packing.
- Captain Ethnic: As a Mexican immigrant, she proudly and often represents her heritage on the runway and challenges.
- Cheaters Never Prosper: Gets called out for breaking the rules in the "Three Looks In One" runway, as the prompt specifically stated that the queens couldn't take off any clothes to perform the reveals, which is exactly what Visa does, removing her first and second looks to reveal into the third and leaving them on the runway. This contributes to Visa landing in the bottom and going home that episode.
- Dance Battler: She highly touts her dancing skills, which she proves both in the Talent Show, with a high energy performance full of acrobatics, and in her lipsync against Clover Bish, easily the closest match of the season.
- Deliberate Under-Performance: In the comeback episode, when the eliminated queens are given the choice of which queen to pair with for the stand-up challenge, Visa surprisingly chooses Pitita, whom she just had a big fight with in the previous episode. Though Visa claims she just wants to see what the judges find so special about Pitita, the other queens suspect she's deliberately trying to set her up for failure. Whatever the case, their lack of chemistry results in an awkard, almost uncomfortably tense stand-up performance, landing Pitita in the bottom.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she has the unlikely coincidence of sharing a look with TWO other contestants, as she first comes out in 1969 winner Salomé's iconic blue fringe bodysuit, just like Clover Bish, before taking it off to reveal a look based on 2008's Rodolfo Chikilicuatre, just like Pink Chadora.
- Edible Theme Clothing: Done twice for the Great Ball of Regions:
- For the Colors category, she pays homage to corn, nicknamed "Mexican gold", in a green gown and corn husk-covered skirt.
- For the Flavors category, she chooses another iconic Mexican food, chili, in a dark red bodysuit adorned with traditional Mexican basketweaving and dozens of chilis hanging from her body, even as earrings.
- Fluffy Fashion Feathers: For the Show Your Feathers runway, she wears a pink and purple feather gown with an absolutely MASSIVE feathered hat, alongside traditional Mexican skull make-up, for a very striking look.
- Hidden Depths: Despite not having shown herself to be particularly apt at comedy in previous challenges, Visa surprises everyone in the Snatch Game with her hilarious portrayal of Mexican popstar Paulina Rubio, playing her as a comedically delusional diva to great effect, which lands her a spot in the top for the episode.
- Mayincatec: She references the Aztecs in her entrance look and Talent Show performance, where she wears a jaguar warrior-esque getup while performing acrobatics on top of a step-pyramid.
- Playing with Fire: She does it twice during the season, both times to great effect:
- For the "My Worst Me" runway, she chooses to expose one of the most traumatic experiences of her childhood (her father dying on a fire accident), coming out in a doll-like getup while carrying a lit birthday cake, which she then drops, setting her hands on fire, taking off her dress into an identical burnt one, and removing her mask and wig to reveal a bald head with burn scars. The look is so powerful that the judges decide to save Visa from the bottom, despite her performance in the acting challenge being considered the worst of the night.
- For the Lost Look in the Reunion, Visa presents her Illusion runway, in which she comes out in a welding mask and red paper-covered jacket, which she then sets on fire with a blowtorch before revealing into a red bodysuit. She is awarded the Miss Lost Look title by her fellow queens for this shocking stunt.
- The Rival: She eventually develops into one with Pitita, whom she believes is getting unfairly favoured by production, with her last Untucked having Visa call her out in front of everyone, to Pitita's rather icy response.
Pakita (7th/8th)
Age: 29
From: Seville, Andalusia
"De tanto batir la leche he acabado... ¡montada!" note
- My Greatest Second Chance: In 2018 Pakita competed in Season 2 of The Switch Drag Race, the franchise's Chilean version, where she was first out, but returns to the franchise this season.
Pink Chadora (7th/8th)
Age: 38
From: Málaga, Andalusia
(bleats) "¡Soy yo, la Pink Chadora, la reina del gallinero! He venido a soltar perlas... ¡y a llenarme el monedero!" note
- Motor Mouth: She's a total chatterbox, something the other girls point out with a mixture of amusement and annoyance.
Bestiah (6th)
Age: 31
From: Leganés, Community of Madrid
"Afilen sus colmillos, nenas, porque el día de la Bestiah ha llegado." note (howls)
- Achievements in Ignorance: Despite not knowing how to sew (and in fact being terrified of the sewing challenge), Bestiah acquits herself quite well during the Great Ball of Regions, where her strong concepts help her land a spot in the top, much to her own surprise.
- Amusement Park: For the "Colors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she chooses to portray the bright tacky colors typical of Spanish town carnivals, in a neon green and pink gown with a bumper car-esque chest piece that she she removes to reveal blinker lights, which she cheekily dubs "intermitetas". note
- Edible Theme Clothing:
- Her Spain Is Different runway is a fashion, vinyl-based take on the famous Iberian ham that the judges absolutely eat up, helping her secure the win in episode 1.
- For the "Flavors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she presents a candy-based look, carrying a giant lollipop and being covered in large pink marshmallows and red licorices.
- Elegant Classical Musician: Bestiah is a clasically-trained musician, a skill she puts on display in episode 1's Talent Show, where she plays the piano while live singing her own original song.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, Bestiah decides to step away from her punky, alternative aesthetic confort zone and goes for full feminine glamour by dressing up as Edurne, Spain's 2015 contestant, coming out on the runway in a giant velvet red coat that reveals into a sparkling silver dress.
- The Power of Rock: Bestiah's drag persona is very Rock & Roll influenced (specially Punk Rock and Glam Rock), which she showcases in episode 1's Talent Show, where after playing the aforementioned piano piece, she suddenly whips off her dress for a punk getup and headbangs her way through a rock lipsync. This sudden contrast between her artistic and rocker side wows the judges, landing her the win for the Talent Show.
- Renaissance Man: She is a trained musician and singer (as shown in episode 1's Talent Show), dancer (helping her in episode 2's dance challenge), and also works as an illustrator and artist (a skill that she puts to good use in her self-made look for episode 3's Great Ball of Regions, where she hand-paints the look's patterns).
Clover Bish (5th)
Age: 25
From: Barcelona, Catalonia
"¡Vengo a saltarme todas las reglas! Bueno, casi todas." note
- Achievements in Ignorance: Despite having no idea on how to sew, her self-made look for the Great Ball of Regions, a reimagination of the traditional flamenco dress mixed with a Caribbean-inspired look in reference to her Cuban roots, turns out surprisingly well, likely saving her from falling into the bottom and only ending up low.
- Ascended Fanboy: During the airing of Season 2 of Drag Race España, Clover participated and won in the Shantay Party, Drag Race España's official viewing party, with one of its prizes being a direct pass to the final round of casting for Season 3.
- Dance Battler: Dubs herself the dancing queen of the season, and she proves her mettle in the Talent Show by delivering a highly energetic performance while lipsyncing to her original song.
- Edible Theme Clothing: For the "Flavors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she presents a look based on mel i mató, a traditional Catalonian dessert made from fresh cheese garnished with honey and nuts, in a white dress representing the cheese, with prop nuts and a headpiece that looks like a jar of honey being poured on her.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she chooses to potray 1969 winner Salomé and her very iconic blue fringe jumpsuit. However, the fact that Visa also wears the same outfit, with her version being deemed better than Clover's, docks her points with the judges and contributes to her missing out the win.
- Hype Backlash: In-universe. Her highly touted dance skills come back to bite her in episode 2's dance challenge, as though she performs quite well, the judges admit to expecting more from her, costing her the win.
- Naïve Newcomer: Clover is relatively new to drag compared to her fellow queens, having done it for less than a year, something that is brought up by the judges in the Great Ball of Regions, in which they note that she doesn't have a very defined drag persona or aesthetic yet, and needs to "get to know herself".
- Stay in the Kitchen: Discussed. While none of the other queens seem to have any issues with her being a cisgender woman, and even celebrate her presence, Clover does talk about feeling undervalued or not taken seriously due to her gender, and having to put in twice the effort to be recognized as a "real" drag queen."Yo no puedo hacerme un smokey eye y un eyeliner y salir porque la gente dirá que no es drag." note
- Toilet Humour: As España's first cisgender female contestant (and second across the entire franchise after Victoria Scone), Clover cheekily references her status in her entrance look (in which she comes in carrying a small maxipad-shaped purse with a little blood stain) and in her aforementioned entrance quote. note
- Wardrobe Malfunction: For both her first two looks in the Great Ball of Regions, the rather large headpieces she wears noticeably tip over and look almost ready to fall, which ends up placing Clover low for the episode.
- Wearing a Flag on Your Head: Her look for the "Colors" category in the Great Ball of Regions is a deconstruction of her native Cuba's red white and blue flag: a white, long-sleeved dress with some hanging stars, a blue wig and headpiece, and holding a red flower, in reference to the "Damas de Blanco" note , an organization of wives and relatives of jailed Cuban dissidents who march through the streets dressed in white and holding the same flower.
Hornella Góngora (3rd=)
Age: 35
From: Alicante, Valencian Community
"Me trataste como un trapo. ¿Quieres papo, o me lo tapo?" note
- One Degree of Separation: Her drag sister and former romantic partner is Season 2's Venedita von Dash.
Kelly Roller (3rd=)
Age: 30
From: Torremolinos, Andalusia
"En Torremolinos se puede ser travesti e ir en patines por la calle. ¡Preparaos que ha llegado a Drag Race la primera travesti patinadora!"note
- Edible Theme Clothing: For the "Flavors" category in the Great Ball of Regions, she represents milk via a dragged-up version of the woman in Johannes Vermeer's famous painting, The Milkmaid, as a busty milkmaid that seductively pours milk down her throat. However, the judges read the look for looking a bit tacky and costumey, specially due to the huge zipper down her back.
- Eurovision Song Contest: For the Spain in Eurovision runway, she first walks out as 1979's runner-up Betty Missiego, in a huge caftan and a hard foam wig representing Missiego's large bouffant hair, before throwing it all off to reveal a bodysuit and short blonde wig representing 2009 contestant Soraya Arnelas who, in a shocking coincidence, just happened to be judging that same episode.
- Graceful Loser: She cheerily proclaims herself "the season's power bottom" when she falls into the bottom 2 for the second consecutive week in a row, and when eliminated she gives a heartfelt speech thanking everyone, particularly Supremme, who is visibly struggling to hold back tears as she tells Kelly to sashay away.
- My Greatest Second Chance: Comes back to the competition after winning the stand-up challenge with Vania.
- Rollerblade Good: Her signature style, as she proudly proclaims in her entrance line, Kelly wears roller skates almost any time she is on stage. Subverted for her Talent Show performance, where she skates while lip-syncing to her original song, but trips and almost falls off the stage, which ends up placing her low for the episode.
- Rummage Sale Reject: A repeated issue for Kelly, whose looks are often heavily criticized by the judges.
- During the Great Ball of Regions, her three looks, particularly her self-made look representing the region of Asturias, are found to be too basic and unappealing, causing her to land in the bottom 2 against Chanel.
- Come next episode, even after a pretty good performance in the challenge, her look for the My Worst Me runway (a baggy, ill-fitting recreation of Kim Kardashian's skin-tight Met Gala look that reveals into a rather basic golden bodysuit) is deemed so bad that Kelly is still placed in the bottom against Clover and goes home.
- Sleazy Politician: Her look for the "Colors" category in the Great Ball of Regions is a homage to Spain's political parties and the idea of political turncoats, first in blue representing the conservative PP, then in red representing the moderate PSOE, and finally in purple to represent the leftist Podemos. While the judges find the idea interesting, they critique the execution (just a reversible blue-to-red jacket and a purple shirt) as way too basic.
Vania Vainilla (runner-up)
Age: 39
From: Zaragoza, Aragon
"¡Soy Vania Vainilla, y he venido a que lo paséis de maravilla!" note
- Sex Comedy: Her number for the Talent Show is a cabaret-style comedy performance where she details some of the men she has slept with, innuendos and crass jokes aplenty, to the judges' delight.
Pitita (winner)
Age: 28
From: Barcelona, Catalonia
"Totó, parece que ya no estamos en Kansas, ¿sabes?" note
- Shout-Out: Her entrance line is a reference to The Wizard of Oz.
