Marisa Prisa (12th + Miss Lost Look)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marisaprisadre2promo.jpeg

Age: 28
From: Burela, Galicia

"Marisa Prisa ha llegado para derribar a todo el ganado." note 


  • Big Beautiful Woman: She's one of this season's curvaceously glamorous queens.
  • Club Kid: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she serves a white latex dress adorned with the red Cross of Santiago, a symbol of direction along the famous Camino de Santiago pilgrimage that points travellers towards the shrine of the apostle Saint James the Great in Santiago, while also holding a small botafumeiro, a metallic incense burner typically found swinging in Galician churches.
  • Country Mouse: Unlike her fellow queens, who all have big-city drag experience, Marisa hails from the small town of Burela in Galicia, and notes that her aesthetic is very much "a village lady who wants to look wealthy".
  • Culture Equals Costume: Her black and white entrance look, with its full skirt and wrap-around shawl, is based on the traditional Galician women's regional dress, though Marisa drags things up by removing her skirt to reveal thigh-high stockings, killer heels, and a basket of padron peppers.
  • Don't Shoot the Message: In-universe. For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she sports an outfit designed after a giant pink breast cancer awareness ribbon, in tribute to singer and breast cancer awareness campaigner, Marta Sánchez. Despite the judges noting that her intentions are noble, the look is just too basic to land.
  • Shrinking Violet: Her nervous and insecure runway presentation is critiqued by the judges in the premiere as one of the reasons she lands in the bottom 2.
  • Textile Work Is Feminine: Marisa reveals in the Reunion that she personally sewed all her looks, and the other queens reward her hard work by voting her as "Miss Lost Look".
  • Throw the Dog a Bone: Despite being first out, Marisa wins the admiration of her fellow queens during the Reunion for her unused self-made "20th Century" outfit, and is voted as the inaugural "Miss Lost Look".
  • We Hardly Knew Ye: She's the first queen out after landing in the bottom 2 in the premiere — primarily due to serving two runway looks that were unfortunately too basic when compared to her competitors.

Ariel Rec (11th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arielrecdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 33
From: Madrid, Community of Madrid

"¡Y el karma, ya llegó!" note 


  • Chainsaw Good: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she dresses as famous Madrid singer and LGBT icon Alaska, chainsaw in tow, referencing the cover of her album No Es Pecado.
  • Custom Uniform of Sexy: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she presents a Hotter and Sexier variation of Madrid's Atlético de Madrid football club uniform in tribute to her father, who used to take her to matches as a child, combined with makeup, hair and a trident to represent the god Neptune, the club's symbol.
  • Heroic BSoD: In episode 2's Untucked, Ariel mentions having had an anxiety attack prior to filming, which contributes to her lackluster performance in both the talent show and subsequent lip-sync, and her elimination.
  • Hype Backlash: Ariel was among the biggest names of the season, being a popular social media queen and the sister of a Season 1 finalist. Though she enters the competition with a lot of confidence, she goes home second after a mediocre showing in the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge.
  • Neat Freak: For her Lost Look in the Reunion, Ariel chooses to present her Spanish Heroines look, a homage to cleaning ladies like her mother, starting the runway carrying a duster and in a bright yellow wig and blue poncho before whipping it all off to reveal rainbow-colored hair and a spray bottle and bodysuit adorned with a logo imitating the famous European washing detergent brand Ariel, as a punny reference to her name.
  • One Degree of Separation: Her drag sister is Season 1's Killer Queen.
  • Shout-Out: She took her drag-name from Ariel, the titular mermaid from Disney's The Little Mermaid.
    • Her Best Drag look for the finale is also a homage to The Little Mermaid, in a pink and blue corset adorned with seashells, starfish and other marine details, as well as a golden fork she uses to brush her hair.
  • Sleep Paralysis Creature: What her Day of the Beast runway is based on: a Hair-Raising Hare plushie, whose fur she removes to reveal a blue-tinged bodysuit with visible veins, boils and an exposed heart that squirts blue blood.
  • So Okay, It's Average: In-universe. The judges' verdict about her performance in the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza, where she lip-syncs to her original song, is that, while it wasn't bad, it just didn't stack up to the much stronger and more focused performances of her competitors, landing Ariel in the bottom 2.

Samantha Ballentines (10th + Miss Congeniality)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/samanthaballentinesdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 35
From: San Fernando, Andalusia

"Uoh! ¿Pero qué whahappen, qué whahappen en Drag Race España? [bebe] ¡Que güeno!" note 


  • Circus Brat: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she dresses as Miss Mara, a world-famous trapeze artist from her home town of San Fernando. However, the judges read her for her low-energy on the runway, landing her in the bottom 2.
  • Dominatrix: Her character in the El diario de Putricia improv challenge is a raspy-voiced, aged version, although her performance is deemed too one-note and chaotic for the judges, and she winds up in the bottom.
  • Fish People: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she presents a anthropomorphic version of a murex brandaris (purple dye murex), a predatory sea snail found in the waters around San Fernando. However, the look is deemed too basic, and she lands in the bottom 2 with Marisa, whom she sends packing in the lip-sync.
  • Genre Blindness: Finding herself in the bottom 2 again in week 3, Samantha once again leans into Vulgar Humor and comedic stripping during her lip-sync against Jota, who far better captures the romantic, tender nature of Luz Casal's ballad "Un Año de Amor". Samantha's chances are finally spent and she's asked to sashay away.
  • Hype Backlash: Samantha was one of the biggest names prior to the season, well known among Spanish fans for her hilariously raunchy Instagram lives. In the competition, however, Samantha never quite seems to find her footing, ending up in the bottom 2 in every episode she's in and ultimately going home third.
  • Lady Drunk: She mentions that she is infamous among her fans for being a bit of a boozy cow, and sure enough she enters the Werk Room while drinking a cocktail. After she's eliminated, as a humorous bookend, she staggers out of the Werk Room grumbling I Need a Freaking Drink.
  • Nice Girl: In the Reunion she is voted Miss Congeniality by her fellow queens. As she proudly proclaims, this makes her feel validated in her mission to make people laugh with her (and sometimes at her).
  • One Degree of Separation: She is the drag mother of Season 1's first out, The Macarena. She jokingly wonders whether her daughter has cursed her when she also winds up in the bottom 2 in the first episode.
  • Refuge in Audacity: As seen in both episodes 1 and 2, Samantha tends to get so completely and outrageously messy in her lip-sync performances — removing her wig and almost all of her clothes and chaotically dancing around the stage — that the judges can't help but find her hilarious, allowing her to survive against the "cleaner" performances of both Marisa and Ariel. However, when she once again goes for wacky comedy in episode 3's lip-sync against Jota, to a slower, more emotional song, it doesn't work and she goes home.
  • Shout-Out: Her drag name is a tribute to Samantha Jones from Sex and the City, and 'Ballentines' comes from her love of Ballantines whiskey.
  • So Okay, It's Average: In-universe. While the judges find her Eccentric Artist skit for the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza funny, it’s still too tame compared to her competitors, for which she lands in the bottom 2.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, she portrays both of the main characters from Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, entering the runway as Lucía in her pink dress and brandishing twin guns, before switching to Pepa's red outfit, spiked gazpacho glass in-hand. However, while the judges praise the storytelling of the reveal, they find the outfits themselves too pedestrian, placing Samantha in the bottom.
  • Tear Off Your Face: For the Day of the Beast runway, she portrays a Plastic Bitch whose facial surgery has gone horribly wrong, staggering around in a surgical gown before pulling off her “face” to reveal muscle tissue beneath.
  • Toros y Flamenco: For her Lost Look in the Reunion, Samantha presents her Spanish Doll look, a take on the archetypical flamenco-dancer doll usually seen standing on top of the TV in traditional Spanish homes, though Samantha camps things up even further by including the TV itself covering her legs for the look.

Jota Carajota (9th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jotacarajotadre2promo.jpeg

Age: 18
From: Jerez de la Frontera, Andalusia

"Porque tú lo que quieres es que me coma el tigre, que me coma el tigre, que me coma el tigre. Pero en este concurso el tigre me lo como yo." note 


  • A Wild Rapper Appears!: For her Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza performance, she leans into her Romani heritage, slumped over a tarot table, candles flickering about her as she plays Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" (AKA the "Dracula music") on a keytar. However, she then springs up and begins performing a completely contrasting acapella, flamenco-esque Boastful Rap before once again picking up her keytar to finish her performance in a collapsed heap on the floor — mad, yet cool.
  • Aborted Arc: The minute Jota enters the Werk Room, Estrella's face cracks, and in confessionals she explains that there's a total of three queens she can't stomach —and Jota is one of them. However, their apparent beef is never addressed in-series after that point, and the pair interact fairly normally until Jota's departure.
  • The Baby of the Bunch: At a very tender 18 years of age, she's among the youngest contestants across the franchise, tying only with Morrigan from Drag Race Thailand Season 1 as the youngest queens ever.
  • Chewing the Scenery: Jota's choice to greatly overact her character's lines in the La Llamadrag musical challenge, alongside her missing some cues, ends up placing her in the bottom 2 against Juriji, who sends her home.
  • Fighting Your Friend: She's quite close to fellow Andalusian queen Samantha Ballentines, but has to face her in episode 3's lip-sync. When she's declared the winner and Samantha sashays away, Jota is visibly distraught.
  • Green-Skinned Space Babe: In a departure from her usual flamenco-inspired style, her Day of the Beast runway is a self-described "alien executive" look, complete with olive-green skin and creepy long fingers.
  • Naïve Newcomer: The ultimate reason for her elimination. The judges all agree Jota has great potential, but her youth and relative inexperience means that she's not yet fully-baked when compared to her competitors.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, she goes for Victoria Abril's Andrea Caracortada in Kika, wearing her iconic Jean-Paul Gaultier black latex dress with exposed breasts. However, her decision to make changes to such an iconic outfit does not go well with the judges, who essentially tell her "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", and together with a shaky performance in the improv challenge, she winds up in the bottom 2.
  • Toros y Flamenco: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she mixes the outfits of a classic flamenco dancer* and a bullfighter, even performing a mock toreador routine after whipping off her flamenco skirt. However, her noticeable fumbling when removing the skirt does not pass by the judges, which scores her a low position.
  • Unreliable Expositor: She's the subject of much playful ribbing in the Reunion from the other queens due to her rather unbelievable stories, such as having a shawl that originally belonged to legendary flamenco singer Lola Flores. Jota staunchly mantains that the stories are true, but does concede that she tends to embellish them.
  • Wardrobe Malfunction: Her Two Looks In One runway is inspired by Botticelli's The Birth of Venus, but her reveal is stunted when she visibly struggles to remove her corset "shell" and gets trapped in it for a few seconds too long, which does not go unnoticed by the judges, contributing to Jota landing in the bottom 2 and sashaying away.
  • Younger Than They Look: She's the youngest queen in the competition and joint youngest across the franchise at 18 years old at the time of filming, yet her makeup makes her look significantly older in drag.

Onyx (8th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/onyxdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 33
From: Madrid, Community of Madrid

"Desde los confines de la galaxia, vengo en son de paz. [ríe] No." note 


  • Alien Princess: Her Best Drag look for the finale, in which she combines a stunning green embroidered gown with full white face-paint, Black Eyes of Evil and her signature head tentacles.
  • Bad Impressionists: For the Snatch Game, she goes with 16th Century queen Joanna of Castile, better known as "Juana la Loca" (Joanna the Mad), portraying her as a wide-eyed, slightly unhinged ingenue, which could have provided a good deal of Fish out of Temporal Water humour, but her performance is lacking and most of her jokes fall deathly flat. Finding herself in the bottom 2, Diamante edges Onyx out in the lip-sync and sends her packing.
  • Bestiality Is Depraved: In the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Onyx portrays a salivating Dalmatian-dressed pervert, who gleefully licks up the flan Juriji’s smeared all over her tits, and even urinates on Supremme's leg.
  • Full-Frontal Assault: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she sports amongst the most daring looks ever seen across the franchise, walking the runway completely naked with just expertly applied makeup and angel wings in play to depict an unsettling "fallen angel" figure, in tribute to the Fuente del Ángel Caído statue in Madrid. The panel are left speechless and note that she succeeded in completely altering the atmosphere when she arrived on stage. She deservedly snatches the win in the premiere. 
  • Green-Skinned Space Babe: Her Signature Style — she sports a green-skinned, tentacle-headed Twi'lek-esque alien look for her Meet the Queens video, in which she notes that she's "an alien from Mount Venus, Carabanchel*", and then a similar one in pink and blue for her entrance look.
  • History Repeats: Her stint in the competition is very reminiscent of Season 1's Hugáceo Crujiente: both are alternative queens that won the first challenge, were in the bottom 2 for the first time after bombing the Snatch Game with a historic character, and were eliminated fifth, although Hugacéo lasted one more episode than Onyx.
  • Hive Queen: In keeping with her alien Signature Style, for the Day of the Beast runway, she sports one of the most ambitiously elaborate looks ever to walk the mainstage — a huge alien-queen rig made of up interlocking chitinous plates and long, mantoid front limbs that completely alter her proportions as she stalks her way up the runway.
  • Making a Splash: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she serves a stunning water-themed gown as a homage to Spain's Queen Isabel II, who ordered the construction of Madrid's canal system to bring fresh water to the populace. It is also a cheeky reference to the common Spanish Memetic Mutation about obnoxious Madrid citizens who constantly go on about how good-tasting their water is.
  • Multi Boobage: For the Two Looks In One runway, Onyx first struts out inside a flower bulb/egg, before opening it to reveal a green-skinned alien look with two rows of vertical breasts. While the judges like the look itself, they feel it doesn't fit the brief, as the first look wasn't so much a look but a cover-up, and she places low for the week, although a strong performance as a rapping elderly nun in the La Llamadrag musical challenge saves her bacon.
  • Our Vampires Are Different: For her Lost Look in the Reunion, Onyx presents her "20th Century" look for the Spanish Ball, as a beautiful vampire dressed in early 20's flapper fashion.
  • Ship Tease: According to the other queens, there's something going on between her and Sethlas, but they neither confirm nor deny it.
  • Spanish Films: Like Jota, for the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, Onyx dresses as Victoria Abril's Andrea Caracortada in Kika, although in her case she chooses her Cyborg-esque military uniform look, complete with fully functioning breast lamps that light up and a huge camera headpiece.
  • Surreal Humour: Her performance for the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge begins with her hatching from a giant egg wearing full alien battle armour, before collapsing to the floor and birthing a bright blue mini-Onyx, complete with her signature head-tentacles. However, while the judges appreciate the performance's strong start and ending, they find the middle part, where she kind of just flails around on stage clutching her "pregnant" belly, too dragged out and flat, and she overall places low for the week.

Diamante Merybrown (7th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/diamantemerybrowndre2promo.jpeg

Age: 25
From: Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic

"Ajustad las antenas, llegó la tele a color." note 


  • Anthropomorphic Food: In the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Diamante portrays a Spanish omelette fed up with the eternal debate among Spaniards on whether onion belongs in tortilla or not. However, comedy is just not Diamante's forte, and she's quite outshined by her teammates Estrella and Sharonne.
  • Biting-the-Hand Humour: For Snatch Game, she rather rashly goes with RuPaul herself — a huge risk, and one that's never been successfully pulled off across the franchise in the past. Her risk absolutely does not pay off, as she embodies literally nothing of Ru's personality or catchphrases, instead attempting to play her as a Funny Foreigner with a bizarre "American" accent, as well as making a few ill-judged cracks about her enjoying "powder" and various other vulgar quips, cueing a mortified Reaction Shot from Supremme and the guest judges. Predictably, she ends up in the bottom 2.
  • Boastful Rap: For the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge in episode 2, she performs her own slick, original rap, which concludes with her leading her dancers off of the mainstage (usually a no-no across the franchise) and climbing up onto a set of stairs next to the judges' desk to perform a leaping death-drop. The judging panel and the Season 1 queens in the audience love her performance and she places high for the week.
  • Custom Uniform of Sexy: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she sports a racier version of the national uniform of the Dominican Republic's baseball team.
  • Dance Battler: She confidently trumpets her dancing skills in both her Meet the Queens video and the season itself, and backs up her boasts both in episode 2's talent show performance and in the bottom 2 for Snatch Game alongside Onyx, whom she sends packing after a hard-fought lip-sync thanks to her high-energy dancing.
  • Edible Theme Clothing: Her Two Looks In One is based on a chocolate Kinder Surprise egg, beginning her runway as the egg itself, opening it into an egg-themed gown, and finally whipping it off to reveal a Pit Girls-esque bodysuit, complete with a steering wheel and tiny cars in her hair, to represent the toy car inside the egg.
  • Hoist by Her Own Petard: For the El diario de Putricia improv challenge in episode 3, Diamante chooses Estrella and Sharonne for her team, knowing that comedy isn't her strong suit and reasoning that being in a group with two of the funniest queens would allow her to at least coast through as safe. However, the opposite ends up happening, and she places low for the week due to being overshadowed by her teammates.
  • Multiple Head Case: Her Best Drag look for the finale incorporates a helmet composed of several overlapping silver masks, giving her the illusion of having multiple faces when she spins around.
  • One Degree of Separation: Diamante is part of the same drag family as Season 1's Arantxa Castilla-La Mancha. Funnily enough, they both end up 7th in the competition.
  • Punny Name: "Merybrown" is an approximate Anglicisation of "marimorena", a slang word in Spanish for a row or ruckus.note  Merybrown is also a play on the Spanish word "morena", which means "brunette" or "dark-skinned", which of course she is.
  • Reality Show Genre Blindness: Played With. Diamante specifically attempts to avert this trope by taking sewing lessons before Drag Race, but a few classes do not a seamstress make, and her looks in the Spanish Ball are still underwhelming enough that she winds up in the bottom 2 and gets sent home by Estrella.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, she struts out as Elena Anaya's character of Vera Cruz from La piel que habito, even recreating the scene in which Vera slashes her own throat with a knife, complete with fake blood. However, while the judges appreciate her energy and performance on the runway, they find the look itself (just a nude skintone bodysuit and a white surgical mask) far too basic, and she ends up placing low.
  • Things That Go "Bump" in the Night: For the Day of the Beast runway, she dresses as an absolutely horrifying version of El hombre del saco note , the Spanish boogeyman who stuffs naughty children in his sack to eat them.
  • Torpedo Tits: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she serves a drag version of real-life Action Girl Agustina de Aragón, a woman who famously defended the town of Zaragoza against the French in 1808 by manning the town's artillery, with two cannons on her breasts which even shoot confetti when pulled!

Drag Sethlas (6th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dragsethlasdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 30
From: Las Palmas, Canary Islands

"Las puertas del cielo ya están abiertas. Arriba les espero." note 


  • Achilles' Heel: Sethlas is a versatile queen skilled at dancing, make-up and looks, but comedy is just not in her arsenal, and she ends up low in the Snatch Game and then in the bottom 2 for the Come to Spain, Bitch! commercial challenge, which sees her sashay away.
  • Crazy Cat Lady: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays eccentric Canarian street artist Lolita Pluma, who became something of an icon around Gran Canaria's Parque Santa Catalina for her crazy fashion and love of cats, whipping off her old lady mask and dress to reveal a cute black and white Cat Girl look underneath, complete with a cape depicting the Parque Santa Catalina.  
  • Domestic Abuse: For her Lost Look in the Reunion, Sethlas presents her Spanish Heroines look, a homage to victims of gender-based violence, in a look modeled after the giant purple ribbon used to represent these women.
  • Full-Frontal Assault: She walks the Spanish Doll runway as a fully nude genderless doll, with only make-up to simulate a doll's joints, and carrying a small briefcase with the colors of the non-binary flag. The judges are very impressed by the look, likely saving her from the bottom 2 after a disastrous Snatch Game.
  • Head-Turning Beauty: She's dubbed the "Trade of the Season" when the queens put it to the vote as to who's the hottest of the cast out of drag. 
  • High-Heel Power: She sports the towering heels which form an integral element of Las Canarias Drag and lend her a good few extra inches of height, though as she's rather petite in stature to begin with, the effect is less imposing when compared to her drag-mother, Drag Vulcano — an impressively statuesque queen even without the heels — who positively towered over her Season 1 competitors.
  • I Am Not My Mother: Well aware that her predecessor and drag mother, Drag Vulcano, was an early out due to the judges feeling she overrelied on the Canarian style, specifically the platforms, Sethlas sets out to show the judges versatility during the competition, serving more conventional looks alongside her main Canarian drag aesthetic.
  • One Degree of Separation: She’s the drag-daughter of Season 1 alumna, Drag Vulcano, and notes (playfully) that she’s guaranteed to improve on her drag-mother's performance.
    • Her exit quote is also a Call-Back to Drag Vulcano's.
  • Paper Master: For the Spanish Ball sewing challenge, her self-sewn "30th Century" runway is expertly constructed entirely out of corrugated cardboard, presenting a geometric Cyberpunk look that the judges absolutely love. The look is also a smart Call-Back to the manuscript-inspired "10th Century" look she previously exhibited, as both are themed around and constructed out of paper as the primary material, and she deservedly gets her first win.
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Out of drag Sethlas is subject to playful ribbing from her fellow competitors due to her small stature, but in drag she often defies this trope thanks to the towering Canarias heels she usually sports.
  • Plot-Relevant Age-Up: For the Two Looks In One runway, she goes beyond the brief by presenting the same person in four looks: first dressed as a baby, then as a young girl in her first communion, then as a woman dressed in a beautiful bridal dress, and finally as the same woman in black lingerie, ready for her honeymoon.
  • The Power of Language: Her three looks for the Spanish Ball challenge are all themed after the evolution of communication over the ages: the written word for the "10th Century" runway, digital media for the "20th Century" runway, and a self-made Cyberpunk look with a sewn mouth and encased hands for the "30th Century" runway, representing a dystopian future where communication is no longer possible. The concept and execution are so well received by the judges that Sethlas is granted her first win of the competition.
  • Reality Show Genre Blindness: Ignoring the host’s advice is never a good idea, but that's exactly what Sethlas does when Supremme pretty much spells out to her that she should go with Camp Gay influencer Alex Gibaja over Rich Bitch Carmen Lomana for the Snatch Game. Predictably, she does quite poorly and ends up placing low.
  • Religious and Mythological Theme Naming: Her drag name 'Sethlas' derives from the God of Fire in Etruscan mythology — very apt for a queen hailing from a volcanic island.
  • Scandalgate: She was at the centre of a considerable religious kerfuffle in 2017 when she appeared at the Carnival Las Palmas de Gran Canaria dressed as a dragged-up take on the Virgin Mary at the Crucifixion, which was immediately denounced as blasphemous by the more reactionary groups on the island. She mentions the scandal with cheeky pride in her Meet The Queens video.
    • Her Best Drag look in the finale is also a direct reference to the controversy, coming down the runway dressed as the Virgin Mary, a massive Holy Halo headpiece included.
  • Ship Tease: According to the other queens, there's something going on between her and Onyx, but they neither confirm nor deny it.
  • Signature Headgear: Like her predecessor, Drag Vulcano, she sports a huge feathered headdress in her promo look, typical to Canary Islands drag.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, she presents a look inspired by Tilda Swinton in the short film The Human Voice, in a massive red gown, dragged up with an axe headpiece and a gasoline can.
  • Sure, Let's Go with That: When Ana Locking praises her "20th Century" Internet-based Spanish Ball look (a bodysuit with a deconstructed computer wrapped around) and asks Sethlas whether she meant her body to be the 1 and the structure around it to be the 0, as in binary code, Sethlas cheekily confirms her helpful assumption.
  • Transforming Mecha: Her performance for the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza begins with her hunkered down as a small, compact car from which she "transforms" into an impressively-designed Mecha suit (a Shout-Out to Transformers) before whipping it all off to begin a slick, acrobatic routine in her towering heels.
  • Wearing a Flag on Your Head: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she sports a beautiful ensemble designed after all of the elements (a crown, a castle, a lion, crossed-swords and palm fronds) that make up the coat of arms of Las Palmas.

Juriji Der Klee (5th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jurijiderkleedre2promo.jpeg

Age: 31
From: Brussels, Belgium

"Hola chicas. No me toquéis el chichi, que todavía no me lo han puesto." note 


  • Botanical Abomination: Her Day of the Beast runway is a red bodysuit wrapped by thorny vines and roses, including two coming out of her mouth, for a still monstrous, yet elegant look.
  • Brainless Beauty: One of her go-to characters in drag is what she best describes as a "mono-neuronal bimbo", which she deploys to great effect in several challenges, although this leads to accusations by some of the other queens of lacking versatility.
  • The Chanteuse: The Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge allows Juriji to show off her excellent operatic singing skills, performing a sultry rendition of "Habanera" from Bizet's Carmen to rapturous applause from the judging panel and the Season 1 queens in the audience.
    • Upon her elimination in episode 8, she exits the Werk Room not with the usual quip, but by singing an enchanting rendition of "Dido's Lament" from Purcell's Dido and Aeneas.
  • Chilly Reception: Upon arriving in the Werk Room, she poses and prances about as usual, but then rather than greeting her fellow queens, as is also customary, she marches straight past literally all of them without any acknowledgment before finally saying hi to Samantha, and her alone. The other queens are less than impressed.
  • Character Development: It takes four or five episodes for her to unthaw and start to reveal her wilder, comic side, but by the time the Come to Spain, Bitch! commercial challenge rolls round in episode 7, she's lauded by the judges for becoming funnier and more open week on week, with her performance during the Raffaella Carrà tribute runway, in which she extracts a rotary telephone receiver from her crotch, being particularly well-received.
  • Doting Grandparent: During a Werk Room talk with Venedita, Juriji recalls her close relationship with her grandmother, who initially paid for her first singing and dancing lessons that her parents didn't approve of. Sadly, her grandmother recently passed from the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Erotic Eating: Most notably in her role as a flans-obsessed cam whore in the El diario de Putricia challenge, but Juriji also seductively eats one of Marisa's padron peppers whole in the premiere, and eagerly swallows a dick-shaped waffle in the Come to Spain, Bitch! advertisement challenge. This leads to Juriji being nominated as one of two candidates for the "Miss Starving" title in the Reunion, only narrowly losing to Big Eater Estrella.
  • Heroic Self-Deprecation: Episode 4 reveals some previously unseen deep insecurities within Juriji, who harshly doubts her worth as a queen and her place in the competition. This results in her usual poise and composure verging dangerously close to Emotionless Girl territory in the uber-camp La Llamadrag musical, as she's clearly in her head while performing. This ends up placing Juriji in the bottom 2, with the judges urging her to believe in her own star power, which she succeeds in doing by serving sex and beauty in the lip-sync and sending Jota home.
  • Hidden Depths: While Juriji at first looks like the typical beauty queen with a subdued personality, throughout the season she shows an unexpectedly comedic side and a complete willingness to get absolutely stupid and filthy.
  • Ice Queen: Juriji is a porcelain-faced Proud Beauty who always exhibits a cool, steady persona, refusing to succumb to high emotions and having little time for any dramatics.
    • Marina finds this out in Untucked when she accuses Juriji of freezing her out, with Juriji coolly telling her to get over herself in withering deadpan.
    • After a few of the queens say her name when Supremme asks the always-awkward question "who should go home next?" during episode 7's critiquing, Sethlas, Estrella and Marina find themselves on the receiving end of a blunt, sarcastic and chilly dressing-down by Juriji, leading to a tensely fraught atmosphere in Untucked.
  • Jeanne d'Archétype: Her "10th Century" look for the Spanish Ball challenge is a celebration of Joan of Arc and her role as one of history's iconic cross-dressers. She enters the runway in a monk's habit before whipping it off to reveal Boyish Short Hair and an armored angel look, complete with mechanical angelic wings that open up when she presses a hidden switch in her sword — gagging the judges and snatching Juriji a spot in the top.
  • Not So Above It All: In the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Juriji drops her poised Proper Lady persona and goes absolutely filthy while portraying an OnlyFlans cam whore who literally rubs flans all over her body.
    Juriji: All I remember is putting flan up my pussy and sitting on Onyx’s face. The rest is a blur.
    • Happens once again in the Snatch Game, where Juriji portrays the iconic "Isabel, la vecina de Valencia"note , and goes for absolutely absurd humour, which finally lands her a spot in the top for the episode.
  • Pronouncing My Name for You: The name "Juriji" is a Portmanteau of her first name and surnames*, though as it's a made-up word, some of the queens (Jota particularly) mangle its pronunciation — so much so that Juriji actually hushes the queens, Finger on Lips, and enunciates every syllable for them.
  • Sexy Scandinavian: For the Spanish Ball, her “20th Century” look is a reference to the popular stock character from 80s Spanish cinema, "la Sueca"*, a sexy Swedish tourist who titillates Spanish men with her modern, unrestrained sexual values, complete with a blonde wig, mod dress, and a visibily furry crotch.
  • Shot at Dawn: Her Spanish Heroines runway is a homage to "las Trece Rosas"*, 13 young women who were executed at the tail end of the Spanish Civil War by the Francoist regime for their socialist ideas, in a bodysuit entirely made of white crochet fabric sewn by her grandmother, who herself left Spain after the Civil War, covered in thirteen white roses, and with cadaver-white make-up only interrupted by a single bleeding bullet hole in her forehead. The look is so hauntingly beautiful that it brings Ana Locking to tears.
  • So Okay, It's Average: In-universe. While her performance in the Roast challenge is perfectly fine, at that point in the competition the judges have to look for the smallest details to critique, and Juriji's roast was just not as good as those of her competitor's, placing her in the bottom 2 with Venedita and leading to her elimination.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, Juriji struts out looking like a supermodel in an absolutely stunning recreation of the Chanel Little Black Dress worn by Penélope Cruz in Broken Embraces.
  • Straight to the Pointe: Her Spanish Dolls runway is based on a music box ballerina doll — referencing her background as a ballet student and the angst she felt as the only transgender girl there — with Juriji walking most of the runway en pointe. The judges all adore the look and presentation, declaring it the best of the night.
  • Visual Innuendo: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she sports a nude bodysuit with a large mussel (Brussels’ classic dish) clamped to her torso, which she opens up as she arrives at the end of runway and seductively caresses to present a suggestively vaginal image.
  • Wearing a Flag on Your Head: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays Spanish aristocrat Águeda Isabel Ruiz de la Prada y Sentmenat, 13th Marchioness of Castelldosrius, in a beautiful, figure-hugging dress that's patterned after the flag of the Community of Madrid, her birthplace prior to moving to Belgium. The perfection of the look and her performance is mildly compromised when one of the stars that makes up the flag's pattern drops off her dress — cueing a Reaction Shot from Supremme. 

Marina (4th)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marinadre2promo.jpeg

Age: 34
From: Barcelona, Catalonia

"Armen sus tropas, señoritas, que ha llegado la Marina." note 


  • Against the Grain: Her character in the La Llamadrag musical is a young drag queen who rejects traditional femininity and wants to perform with a mustache. Her earnest delivery and strong vocals, alongside a flawlessly-executed outfit and wig change for the Two Looks In One runway land Marina in the top for the episode.
  • Artsy Beret: As a bold, avant-garde queen, Marina sports a black Beatnik beret in confessionals and frequently in the Werk Room.
  • Cool Boat: In keeping with her maritime name, Marina has a large, 17th Century Spanish galleon tattooed across her chest, that at a casual glance gives the impression of hair.
  • Confusion Fu: Finding herself in the finals of the Drag Sumo mini-challenge against Estrella, Marina launches at her with an impressive pirouetting Spin Attack and, when that fails, hilariously clings onto Estrella like a monkey in the hopes of confusing her and somehow finding an opening. However, Marina just cannot compete against Estrella's brute strength and she gets thrown out of the ring pretty quickly.
  • Eccentric Artist: Marina is an avant garde, artistically-minded queen, and an earnest, gentle soul, though her slightly spacey outlook and overall quirkiness does, on occasion, confuse or just outright irritate her fellow queens.
  • Failed Attempt at Drama: In episode 3's Untucked, seemingly out of nowhere she accuses the other girls, particularly Juriji, of ignoring and freezing her out. In weary deadpan, Juriji responds by reprimanding Marina for attempting to contrive attention, being insufferably whiny, and constantly farting.
  • The Friend Nobody Likes: Of the Proximity variety. By the third episode, it quickly becomes clear that most of the other girls don't like Marina very much, with Diamante and Onyx specifically picking their teams for the improv challenge so that they won't have to work with her, as well as Juriji absolutely reading her to filth in Untucked.
  • Folk Horror: Her "10th Century" runway for the Spanish Ball challenge is inspired by this, as a woman in a wheat-covered gown that is being offered, hands tied with rope, as a bride to a pagan Fertility God.
  • Gum In Hair:
    • After episode 5's Spanish Dolls runway, there's a minor kerfuffle in the Werk Room when Marina discovers that the silicon she'd (rather foolishly) used to attach her wig has bled through its lining and leached into her hair, firmly sticking it in place. She needs the help of the other girls to pry the wig off her head through a combination of gentle tugging and blasting it with a hairdryer, which leaves Marina only capable of bleating and gasping as she pleads with the other girls to be careful — which thoroughly cracks up Estrella.
    • Later in the same episode, her "20th Century" runway for the Spanish Ball challenge is a punk bride who deliberately sticks gum into her hair.
  • Hidden Depths: It's safe to say that Marina, a queen for whom comedy had previously proven to be something of a challenge, went into the Season 1 Queens Roast with the lowest expectations. However, she confidently opens the show (always a tough position) and presents a breezy, playful roast — portraying "Marina's cousin" to smartly distance herself from the shade — that never once strays into shittines and always remains on the right side of playful, all without notes. Comedy queen Estrella singles her out in Untucked with a sweet So Proud of You moment, and once the queens return to the main-stage, the combination of her unexpected comedy chops in the roast and a perfect trans-positive Spanish Heroines runway snatches her her first win of the competition.
  • Humans Are the Real Monsters: Whilst all of her fellow queens lean into classic horror and monstrous themes for the Day of the Beast runway, Marina presents the darkest aspects of humanity via a disturbing double image, inspired by a song by the band Mecano, in which a glamorous Parisian woman (her front half) seemingly weeps over her dead husband, who burned to death in an apartment fire (her back half). The twist occurs as she leaves the runway and coolly lights up a cigarette, revealing herself to be the arsonist.
  • Icon of Rebellion: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays José Pérez Ocaña, a performer, artist and pioneering Spanish LGBT activist who famously walked down Las Ramblas in Barcelona in full drag, flashing the crowds, at a time when such an act could (and for José often did) lead to violence and incarceration.
  • Momma's Boy: Adores her mother, and in a tearful Werk Room moment with Estrella, she explains their closeness and how strong — "like a woman from a Pedro Almodóvar movie" — and beloved her mother is back home.
  • Mating Dance: For the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge in episode 2, she shows off her expert dance skills (and those of the Pit Crew) via a Medley of classically sensual forms, beginning with the Tango, then the Cha-cha-cha, before finishing her performance with a sultry, self-penned Burlesque-esque "I Am" Song.
  • Old-Timey Bathing Suit: In keeping with her nautical name, Marina's entrance look is a Gaultier-esque, early 20th Century striped bathing costume, complete with a clutch made out of a ship's wheel and a jaunty little sailor hat.
  • One Name Only: She usually goes by 'Marina Forever', but on the show, she's just known as Marina.
  • Reality Show Genre Blindness: Marina is another one of the girls that admits to having absolutely zero sewing proficiency during the Spanish Ball sewing challenge, and indeed she doesn't even use the sewing machines for her final “30th Century” look, relying on draping, hot glue and her fashion model body to sell the garment. She winds up low, although her first two looks are strong enough to save her from the bottom 2.
  • Sexy Whatever Outfit: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she presents a smart, asymmetrical Punk Rock look that's designed to represent the angular, grid-like formation of The Eixample district in Barcelona, complete with a mini version of the cucumber-shaped Agbar Tower in the palm of her hand.
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: Marina clearly has absolutely no inhibitions when it comes to nudity, and in the premiere she shows her exposed crotch twice — once for the mini-challenge in which the girls are tasked with replicating Goya's Nude Maja painting (with her being the only queen to go fully nude), and then again on the main-stage for her José Pérez Ocaña-inspired Queen of your Hometown look, in which she flashes the judges. The daring act impresses the judges so much that it instantly lands Marina in the top.
  • Shocking Elimination: In-universe. Despite making the finale alongside Estrella, Venedita and Sharonne, Marina is cut off at the last second and not allowed to lipsync for the crown due to having the overall worst track record. Her fellow queens are quite shocked, and Marina is visibly hurt, though she stoically accepts the judges' verdict.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, Marina smartly deploys Recursive Crossdressing to present a dragged-up, female version of a male character's look — in her case the iconic Jean-Paul Gaultier tiger suit worn by Roberto Leal's Zeca in La piel que habito.
  • Spectacular Spinning: Marina's Signature Move — her incredible pirouetting skills are best-in-class across the Drag Race franchise.
  • Straight Man: Marina is an avant garde, high-brow queen who clearly takes her art-form very seriously. This puts her at a disadvantage in the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, which requires a knowingly trashy, hyper-ridiculous tone that slightly goes over her head — though she performs well enough to at least place safe.
  • Trans Tribulations: Her Spanish Heroines runway is a artistic tribute to transgender women and the many hardships they go through, in a white pantsuit with the names of murdered transgender women written onto it, and two long arms covered in pink and blue gloves (which, alongside white, make up the transgender flag) that reach upwards to protect a heart on Marina's head. The look is so symbolically powerful that it brings the Javis to tears.

Estrella Xtravaganza (runner-up + Hungriest Queen)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/estrellaxtravaganzadre2promo.jpeg

Age: 25
From: Jerez de la Frontera, Andalusia

"No soy perra, no soy gata, soy una estrella y eso te mata." note 


  • All Gays Love Theater: When the musical challenge is announced, Estrella is absolutely elated due to her love of musicals, particularly La Llamada, on which the La Llamadrag spoof is based. She goes on to absolutely smash her portrayal of a hilariously innocent camp counselor/nun, and deservedly wins her first challenge.
  • Anthropomorphic Food: In the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Estrella portrays a white onion as a stereotypical Andalusian Scatterbrained Senior, and her hilarious banter and antics (including chewing raw onions) helps her land a spot in the top for the week.
  • Big Beautiful Woman: She's this season's second curvaceous queen, along with Marisa Prisa.
  • Big Eater: She incorporates eating in her runways, in her Snatch Game, in her improv challenge (raw onions)... Damn, even her talent show is a hamburger-themed burlesque-lipsync number! Her love for food leads to the other girls voting her as "Miss Starving" in the Reunion.
  • Big Fun: She's the curviest girl of the season, and is a perpetually jolly ball of mad energy, constantly smiling, and joking around in an entirely uninhibited manner.
  • Boob-Based Gag: For the Nude Maja naked photoshoot mini-challenge in the premiere, she creates two enormously sagging, comically large tits out of a pair of nude tights, that easily hang right down to her waist. Whilst some of the girls find her efforts crass and sloppy, she's rewarded with the first win of the competition for her comic efforts.
  • Consulting Mister Puppet:
    • For her Meet the Queens video, she sports a mad, Kermit-esque costume that features two froggy hand-puppets, with whom she banters.
    • For her lip-sync against Marina to "El Anillo" by Jennifer Lopez in the semi-final, she pulls out a hand puppet with which she hilariously banters through the song's lyrics, leading to a rare double shantay.
  • Deliberately Monochrome: Her Spanish Heroines runway is a homage to all female journalists, in a suit made from newspaper fabric, coupled with greyscale face make-up for a full "black and white" effect.
  • Hooker with a Heart of Gold: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays Mónica Coronado, a gleefully quirky Spanish prostitute who was subject of the documentary film, Mónica del Raval.
  • Motor Mouth:
    • Oh yes. She's a good-natured, cheerful queen, and literally does not stop chatting away, cracking gags, and cheekily heckling from the sidelines, which is immediately picked up on by her fellow queens.
    • Her performance in the Roast is a brilliant, yet at-times insanely fast, garbled diatribe that delights the judging panel, but also sees Estrella mildly chided for not slowing down to breathe and let the jokes settle.
  • Ode to Food: For the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza, she celebrates her size and love of eating via a campy song and dance number, sporting a hamburger-based ensemble that squirts ketchup from her tits.
  • Platonic Life-Partners: She and Sharonne make a fantastic team with great chemistry, placing high every time they have worked together, and even snatching a joint win in the Come to Spain, Bitch! commercial challenge.
  • Rummage Sale Reject: She openly admits that sewing is simply not in her wheelhouse, and for the Spanish Ball sewing challenge, her three looks, while fun and campy, are too basic to stand up against her competitors', with the most troubling being her self-sewn "30th Century" runway, a foil-based sloppily-constructed hot mess that lands her in the bottom 2 with Diamante, whom she sends home after an emotionally charged lip-sync.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, she portrays Rossy de Palma's Juana in Kika, using prosthetics to replicate Rossy's iconically large Gag Nose and Toothy Issue.
  • Stout Strength: Being the Big Beautiful Woman of the competition has its advantages — especially when it comes to the Drag Sumo mini-challenge, a Street Fighter-style knockout tournament in which the queens sport comedy inflatable sumo-suits and battle to ring each other out. Using her weight advantage, Estrella crushes the competition and in the final round, not even Marina's impressive Spin Attack can topple her. 
  • Wearing a Flag on Your Head: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she sports a hybrid flamenco dancer/jockey look in grass green and white, the colours of the flag of her home region of Andalusia.
  • Whole Costume Reference: For the Two Looks In One runway, Estrella presents three iconic Marilyn Monroe looks: first the pink strapless dress from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, then the Marilyn Maneuver white dress from The Seven Year Itch, and finally a black Old-Timey Bathing Suit with a cute swimming cap from Some Like It Hot.
  • Younger Than They Look: Estrella is 25 years old at the time of filming, but a combination of her facial features and her old-school Camp aesthetic means that she reads (and looks) older than her years.

Venedita Von Däsh (runner-up)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/veneditavond3fshdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 30
From: Elche, Valencian Community

"¿Alguien ha pedido una cebra a domicilio?" note 


  • Burlesque: For the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge, she arrives on stage dressed as a maudlin, martyr-like figure, carried aboard a Paso* by the Pit Crew, before whipping off her robes to perform an energetic, flamenco-inspired striptease. 
  • Conspiracy Theorist: For the Snatch Game, Venedita deploys Recursive Crossdressing to portray legendary Spanish singer Miguel Bosé, who became recently infamous in Spain for his anti-vaxxing and COVID-denial stances in the middle of the pandemic. Venedita absolutely does not hold back, playing Bosé as an unhinged, coked-out lunatic who keeps ranting about masks and the virus in a portrayal that’s so utterly outrageous it lands her a spot in the top.
  • Eccentric Artist: Her Spanish Heroines look is a homage to women painters, in a huge white coverall dress covered in paint stains and brandishing a palette and brush.
  • Hairy Girl: She describes herself as the "bearded lady" of Spanish drag, sporting facial hair in and out of drag, though slightly more subtly — hers is a chin-strap beard — than Madame Madness and Luquisha Lubamba.
  • I Am Not Left-Handed: When the Spanish Ball sewing challenge is announced, Venedita reveals that she has studied fashion design, but heavily downplays her skills to both the other queens and Supremme. However, she delivers three strong runways, particularly her self-sewn “30th Century” look, and places high for the week.
  • Indy Ploy: Having been told by the judges that she's naturally funny and should go with the flow more, Venedita finds their advice backfiring hard on her in the Roast challenge, where she goes with a more unscripted, "wing it" approach that ends up being a wobbly, awkward misfire, and sees her landing in the bottom 2 for the first time. For their part, even the judges themselves note they feel a little guilty for potentially setting her up for a fall.
  • Living Statue: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays a living, breathing, dragged-up take on the Lady of Elche, a 4th Century BC stone bust discovered in her hometown of Elche.
  • Mummy: Her inspiration for the Day of the Beast runway, complete with a generous mouthful of Black Blood.
  • Named After Somebody Famous: "Venedita" is a Portmanteau of the names of her two idols; Spanish singer, actress and trans icon, La Veneno, and the American burlesque performer, Dita Von Teese.
  • Playing a Tree: For her Symbol of Your Hometown runway, she portrays a Valencian palm in celebration of her Community's native trees that helped grant Elche World Heritage status.
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: Venedita is very proud of her rather juicy buttocks (proclaiming herself as "Spain's ass" the moment she enters the werkroom), and has absolutely no issues with showing it off for the camera.
  • Shout-Out: An in-universe one. Her entrance directly references Season 1's Dovima Nurmi's, with her ringing a bell and saying "Did somebody order a-" for her entrance quote.
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, Venedita goes slightly meta by dressing up as another drag-queen, in this case Gael García Bernal's Zahara in Bad Education, starting the runway in a trenchcoat and hat and revealing into Zahara's iconic Jean-Paul Gaultier nude dress, which absolutely wows the judges.
  • Spotlight-Stealing Squad: Despite having a relatively minor part as a Lie Detector lady in the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Venedita manages to completely dominate the scene by playing her as incredibly sex-crazed, groping and grinding on the Pit-Crew even while in the background. It works perfectly, as the judges mention they couldn't keep their eyes away from her, and she deservedly snatches her first win in the competition.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Venedita aces the Golden Boys Makeover challenge in the semi-final, in which the final four queens are matched with four members of La Fundación 26 de Diciembre, a group set up by Federico Armenteros and his husband Ino to support and house older members of the Spanish LGBT+ community. She crafts a pair of Pop Art-patterned, tailored trench-coats (from scratch, unlike her competitors) for her and her partner, the adorably sweet Ino, whom she brilliantly christians "Vinagreta Von Däsh", and as well as a exhibiting great chemistry and well-crafted looks, both her and Ino perfectly encapsulate all of Venedita's signature house-codes — nipple pasties, a clipboard and pen, and of course her beard — to the delight of the judges.

Sharonne (winner)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sharonnerecdre2promo.jpeg

Age: 45
From: Barcelona, Catalonia

"Iba a venir de Goya, pero la rima es tan fácil y yo tan compleja... And the Oscar goes to... ¡Huy! ¡Si me he equivocado de certamen!" note 


  • The Ace: Sharonne manages to either place high or win in every single episode of the season bar a single safe placement for episode 6's Spanish Ball sewing challenge, and therefore has one of the strongest track records of any queen in the franchise. It was to no-one's surprise when she was declared the winner of the season, with the only criticism the judges can find for her in their final deliberation is that the season had been perhaps "too easy" for her.
  • Anthropomorphic Food: In the El diario de Putricia improv challenge, Sharonne portrays a red onion as a stereotypical Catalonian crotchety grandma. With her theater background serving her well, she delivers a strong performance and lands in the top for the week.
  • Art Nouveau: Her Symbol of Your Hometown runway is a homage to Barcelonian artist Antonio Gaudí, with a dress patterned after his mosaics and a headpiece designed after his iconic Sagrada Família cathedral. The skirt is also covered in white feathers, representing Barcelona's prolific Pesky Pigeons, and this pairing of fashion and camp lands her a spot in the top.
  • At the Opera Tonight: For her Queen of Your Hometown runway, she portrays Barcelona's legendary opera singer Montserrat Caballé, complete with a Freddie Mercury doll tying her iconic bouffant hair back, in reference to their collaboration for the '92 Barcelona Olympic Games anthem.
  • The Dutiful Son: In episode 3, she shares a tender mirror-moment with Venedita, and explains that when her career was on the rise, and she was given the chance to tour internationally, she turned down the opportunity in favour of staying in Spain to care for her sick father, who at the time was dying from Alzheimer's Disease.
  • Experienced Protagonist: Sharonne is easily the queen on her season with the biggest mainstream recognition, having already made several appearances in Spanish TV prior to Drag Race, most notably as a contestant and finalist in the singing-and-impersonation show "Tu Cara No Me Suena Todavía"note .
  • Grande Dame: She is the oldest, most experienced queen of the cast, and has the demeanor to show it.
  • History Repeats: Much like Season 1's winner Carmen Farala, Sharonne is a Consummate Professional who absolutely dominates her season, winning three challenges, never falling in the bottom 2 and eventually snatching the crown, with the only critique the judges can muster for her is that perhaps she is a tad too perfect.
  • Housewife: Whereas her fellow queens gravitate towards dramatic, political looks for the Spanish Heroines runway, Sharonne instead celebrates her mother's role as a multitasking housewife, and by extension all Spanish housewives, in a charming, mid-Century look.
  • In Memoriam: An unprecedented, in-universe example. For her winning Snatch Game performance, Sharonne portrays beloved four-time Goya Award winning Spanish actress, Verónica Forqué, perfectly capturing her chaotic Granola Girl charm. Tragically, Forqué took her own life in December 2021, and with Season 2 having been filmed prior to her death, it was therefore impossible to edit out Sharonne's depiction. Instead, a heartfelt, respectful Dedication to Forqué, read by Supremme, appears at the beginning of episode 5.
  • Momma's Boy: Sharonne has a very close relationship with her mother, and mentions that one of the reasons she wants to win Drag Race is to make her mother proud.
  • Nun Too Holy: She nails her character in the La Llamadrag musical challenge as a cranky Drill Sergeant Nasty nun, and alongside her dramatic, grey phoenix-themed Two Looks In One runway, she places high once again.
  • Platonic Life-Partners: She and Estrella make a fantastic team with great chemistry, placing high every time they have worked together, and even snatching a joint win in the Come to Spain, Bitch! commercial challenge.
  • Pronouncing My Name for You: In her Meet the Queens video, she notes that her name is prone to confusion on its pronunciation, and she's been variously addressed as "Sharon", "Shagón", and (by very Spanish people) as "Charo". She clarifies that it's pronounced "Sharonné" with an accent, though she doesn't mind either way.
  • Renaissance Woman: Like a rarefied handful of queens from across the franchise, Sharonne can turn her experienced hand to literally any task presented — acting, script-writing, impersonation, singing, dancing, runways — and do well to exceptional every time. In the end, Sharonne makes it all the way to the finale without ever placing lower than safe, let alone landing in the bottom throughout the competition, joining an illustrious group of queens across the franchise who never place below safe, comprising of Bianca del Rio (US S6), Scarlett Bobo (Canada S1), Envy Peru (Holland S1), Kitty Scott-Claus (UK S3), Ella Vaday (UK S3), Farida Kant (Italy S1), Elecktra Bionic (Italy S1), and Danny Beard (UK S4).
  • Spanish Films: For the Almodóvar Leading Ladies runway, Sharonne absolutely embodies Marisa Paredes' Becky del Páramo in High Heels, perfectly nailing her graceful, Silver Fox elegance. The only criticism the judges have for her look is that it's too much of an exact re-creation, but they still love it and she places high for the week.
  • Talking to Themself: Sharonne is the only queen who doesn't receive critiques for the Spanish Ball challenge, and as such she's dismissed to the backstage lounge alone. There, she entertains herself before the other queens join her by putting on a dialogue between the painted and the unpainted side of her face.
  • Team Mom: Sharonne never participates in any drama and is generally kind and helpful towards her fellow queens. Sethlas in particular often calls her "mommy".
  • Ventriloquism: For the Supremme Eleganza Talent Extravaganza challenge, she performs Ella Fitzgerald's version of George Gershwin's "Summertime" in accomplished alto tones, though to camp things up, she's accompanied by a Louis Armstrong puppet, whom she also voices in contrasting deep baritone. The duality of her expert vocals, combined with the campiness of her ventriloquism, sees her snatch her first win of the competition.
  • Voodoo Doll: Her theme for the Day of the Beast runway is a twisted Raggedy Ann-esque version, complete with a skirt that has various other creepy effigies and talismans sewn into its lining, and a Sackhead Slasher mask which she removes to reveal a truly frightening Nightmare Face beneath.
  • Whole Costume Reference: She begins her Spanish Dolls runway covered in yards of puffy peach netting to evoke a retro "pillow-doll" look, before whipping it all off to reveal a very accurate Teela costume underneath — her favourite action-figure as a child.
