Tia Kofi es una artista drag y una de las concursantes de la segunda temporada de RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
Más tarde, regresaría para competir en la segunda temporada de RuPaul's Drag Race UK vs The World, donde finalmente fue ganadora.
Origen de su nombre drag[]
Su nombre es un juego de palabras con "tea or coffee?". Como parte de su confesionario inicial de entrada, Tia bromeó diciendo que su nombre es en honor a Tia Mowry de "Sister Sister" y el exsecretario general de las Naciones Unidas, Kofi Annan.

That'll be the last time you ever call me basic." (verso en "UK Hun?")
