About

RuPaul's Drag Race Season 14

“Don't let her laid-back Seattle grunge vibe fool you -- this fiercely competitive queen is all about femme fatale glamour. With her razor-sharp wit and an impressive arsenal of drag talents, Bosco will stop at nothing to bring the crown home to Seattle.”[6]

RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 10

“Seattle’s demon queen is back—with a monster appetite for the crown! Bosco was saved from elimination by a golden chocolate bar in Season 14 and clawed her way to the Finale. Now this burlesque beauty is armed with cutting-edge fashion and razor-sharp wit and she’s ready to slice through the competition!”[7]
