Madame Cassandra Uzumaki LaQueer[1] (formerly known simply as Madame LaQueer) is a drag performer from Carolina, Puerto Rico, best known for being a contestant on Season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Madame was a character from a Telemundo soap opera from the 80's played by a Puerto Rican actress who was friends with her family. The character was the villain and the head of a whore house. She always wanted to be a mistress of mischief. Queer is from her favorite TV show, Queer as Folk, and it also has a double meaning. Queer is another word for gay and it also means weird. She wanted a name that did not project a faithful female image but rather a man that dresses up like one. La was added later to make it sound more beautiful in French.[2]
She is tied with Mayhem Miller and Scarlet Envy as the second lowest placing queen to win a challenge (10th place). The lowest placing queen to win a challenge is a tie between Asttina Mandella (11th place, though she would technically be 10th place also had Joe Black not returned.), and Geneva Karr (11th place)
She also has the second shortest run of any queen to win a challenge (4 episodes), first being Asttina Mandella (3 episodes).
Coincidentally, she and Scarlet Envy both had a win in the second episode of their season, and it was a conjoined win.
She is the first contestant whose name starts with "Madame".
She came out as a trans woman on January 22, 2024 on an Instagram Story.[1]
In a interview with YouTuber Drag Tea Interviews with Matt, Madame LaQueer hinted at the fact that there was unaired drama between her and The Princess during RuPaul's Drag Race Season 4.[citation needed]
