Memo Reyri is a Mexican drag performer and one of the contestants on the third season of La Más Draga.
About[]
Memo Reyri is not a super masculine Bio King, quite the opposite – this Bio King loves to play with clichés and makes the most of femininity. He takes features like a mustache, some dandy eyebrows and a naked male torso and combines them with elegant, feminine poses, which is the essence of this pioneer of the Bio King in Mexico.[4]
Drag Name Origin[]
His drag name comes from his own real name: Guillermo "Memo" Reyes del Río. He went with a variation of his own name because he didn't want to stop being himself, that is, he didn't want to create another persona. He wanted to be himself doing something crazy.[4]

Memorable Quotes[]
La Más Draga Season 3[]
- "Lo que trato de hacer con mi personaje es jugar un poquito con lo conocido como la masculinidad, mezclar como un atuendo muy bonito con una actitud muy grotesca o algo muy tosco con una actitud muy delicada."
- "Entre caras muy conocidas, unas muy agradables... otras no tanto." (about Luna Lansman).
- "Yo vengo preparado mi amor. Si tú vienes aquí a hacer las cosas, es tu pedo." (to StupiDrag during La Más Fichera).
- "¿Vestidas y cansadas? Hmm, que miedo."
- "Agárrenme que ahí les voy." (when the contestants started discussing about being scammed by their designers).
- "Regrésame mi dinero, perra." (talking directly to a former friend and designer who scammed him).
- "Me gusta la pata, pero no ese tipo de pata. Me gusta el otro tipo de pata que la conocemos todos. Ni que fuera Johnny para que me gustara la otra pata. Pero de esa pata no vamos a hablar porque hablamos de otra pata. Entonces no me gusta la pata querida." (as Cantinflas during La Más Famosa).
- "A estas alturas de la competencia, con el estrés y el cansancio, pues extrañamos a nuestra gente. De repente nos perdemos en quienes somos o la seguridad se nos va."
- "Lo que podemos tener en común, es que salimos de los estándares de belleza." (to Mista Boo).
- "Va a estar interesante este reto porque con las personalidades de estas cabronas.. ya me imagino con que chingadera van a salir." (during La Más Buchona).
- "Nada más veía como se me caían los pelitos del estrés." (during the Makeover Challenge).
- "Una de las cosas que me han criticado es que hago esto porque es mucho más fácil que maquillarse como ellas o porque creen que no lo sé hacer. Así que hoy uno de mis retos fue maquillar a alguien como yo pero en una parte femenina para que vean que sí lo sé hacer, sí lo puedo hacer."
- "Estoy muy orgulloso de lo mal que me salió." (during La Más Buchona).
- "De tanto estar picando, pueden romper a la gente." (to Madison, Mista Boo and Rudy Reyes).
- "Muchas gracias a todos. Está padre ser diferente dentro de lo diferente. Y pues de aquí para arriba." (following his elimination).

- "El que se mete con Karlita, se mete con 13 más."
Trivia[]
- Memo is the first drag king to compete on the show. He would be followed by Paper Cut, and Ank Cosart.
- He is also the first AMAB king to compete on any drag show.
- Before being Memo Reyri, he performed as a drag queen named Sacrismina, name which came from the combination of Sacristía, the bar where Memo began doing drag, and Guillermina.[4]
- Memo is the drag son of Margaret Y Ya (from Season 1).[5]
- This makes Amelia, Deseos Fab, Soro Nasty and Yayoi Bowery his drag siblings.
- Memo, along with Amelia and Yayoi, also made a brief appearance during Margaret's finale performance at the Season 1 finale.[6]
- All three of them were also featured on Margaret's official music video for La Más Draga: "Qué Calor!".[7]
- Memo was one of the secret contestants of La Más Draga 3, along with Raga Diamante, Regina Bronx, StupiDrag and Yayoi Bowery. This meant that all five of them were directly cast in the show solely based on their audition tapes, without needing to be part of the live auditions.[8]
- Based on the opening sequence, the Lotería card assigned to Memo was El Mariachi. The number on his card also indicates that he was the second contestant cast for the season.[9]
- He was the first, and currently only contestant, to have one of his runways be almost entirely censored. This happened with his La Más Antojable runway, where he performed anilingus to Veneno.
- Memo revealed that he and Veneno were heavily scolded afterwards for not informing the producers about their plan, although Memo assures that he did.[10]
