Miss Vallarta (11th)

Age: 25
From: Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco


  • Epic Fail: Being placed in the bottom in the very first episode along with Vermelha Noir, Miss Vallarta and her opponent both give such a disappointing lip-sync performance that Valentina and Lolita decide to spare them and give the two a second chance. In fact, judge Óscar Madrazo revealed after the fact that the panel intended to eliminate them both, but the show's producers opposed the decision because it would have been such a terrible note to end the series premiere on.
  • Location Theme Naming: Miss Vallarta (who has Only One Name, plus the honorific) uses her home town's name as her drag name.
  • Only One Name: Miss Vallarta has no first name, just the honorific and surname (which is also the name of her home town).
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: After narrowly avoiding elimination in the premiere, she ends up in the bottom again come the second episode and sashays away after losing the lip-sync, therefore becoming México's own "Porkchop".

Vermelha Noir (10th)

Age: 24
From: Querétaro City, Querétaro


  • Ascended Fangirl: Vermelha started watching Drag Race as a boy of 13, and decided that he wanted to be like the queens one day.
  • Epic Fail: Being placed in the bottom in the very first episode along with Miss Vallarta, Vermelha and her opponent both give such a disappointing lip-sync performance that Valentina and Lolita decide to spare them and give the two a second chance. In fact, judge Óscar Madrazo revealed after the fact that the panel intended to eliminate them both, but the show's producers opposed the decision because it would have been such a terrible note to end the series premiere on.
  • Shout-Out: The second half of her drag name is a shout out to Mónica Naranjo's album Madame Noir (although Vermelha admits that she sometimes says it's just because she knows French).

Pixie Pixie (9th)

Age: 32
From: Mexico City

"Pixie Pixie is a fusion of a villain from Batman's Gotham City and a super-baroque femme fatale, but also very romantic. She is gothic, but never dark."

  • Appropriated Appellation: Her black and white style earned Pixie Pixie the nickname "the night fairy", which then became the basis of her drag name.
  • Perky Goth: Pixie describes her drag aesthetic as goth - "not bad dark, but goth dark", with a bit of baroque, and considers herself a pioneer of white face makeup in drag. She also shows plenty of grins and smiles in her "Meet the Queens" introduction, appearing to be towards the perky, upbeat end of goth.
  • Repetitive Name: Her drag name is Pixie Pixie, an Appropriated Appellation from being called "the night fairy" due to her goth and baroque drag style, and the fact that her aesthetic is based around two basic colours — hence the same name repeated twice.

Serena Morena (8th)

Age: 34
From: Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes


Margaret Y Ya (6th)

Age: 28
From: Mexico City


  • Experienced Protagonist: This is not Margaret's first time at the rodeo of drag competitions, since she already participated on the original season of La Más Draga, placing second overall, as well as Trinity the Tuck's digital contest Love for the Arts, where she placed fourth.

Lady Kero (5th + Miss Congeniality)

Age: 33
From: Ocotlán de Morelos, Oaxaca


  • Nice Girl: She's proclaimed the inaugural Miss Simpatía (Miss Congeniality) of the Mexican edition come the finale.
  • Shout-Out: "Kero" comes from the character Cerberus, also known as Kero, from Cardcaptor Sakura, as well as from her real-life last name.

Gala Varo (Runner-Up)

Age: 33
From: Morelia, Michoacán


Matraka (Runner-Up)

Age: 24
From: Purísma del Rincón, Guanajuato


  • A Birthday, Not a Break: Episode 5 was filmed during her birthday; the girls all celebrated in the werkroom and she even managed to get her first win.
  • Ascended Fangirl: Matraka started watching RuPaul's Drag Race with Season 9, and credits its winner Sasha Velour with inspiring her to take a leap into "the world, the aesthetic and the art" of drag.
  • Xtreme Kool Letterz: "Matraka" is a simple wordplay on matraca, meaning "ratchet" (the musical instrument) in Spanish.

Regina Voce (Runner-Up)

Age: 41
From: Mexico City
