Janey Jacké is a Dutch drag performer and the runner-up of Drag Race Holland Season 1.

On January 17 2022, it was announced that Janey would be one of the contestants to compete in the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race UK vs The World, alongside eight other queens.

Drag Name Origin

'Janey' comes from when someone called her 'Baby Jane' the first time she did drag.

Janey added the last name 'Jacké' because she thought it sounded tacky. She did this because many of her friends called her tacky when she started experimenting in the Haarlem drag-scene.
