Sign in to edit

Mrs. Tan is a Filipino drag performer and one of the Mudras of the first season of Mudrakels.[4]

Mrs. Tan would later be crowned the first Queen Mudra during the finale.

Mrs. Tan would later return to compete as a contestant on the second season of Drag Den, where she placed as the runner-up.

Drag Name Origin[]

During the seventh episode of the first season of Mudrakels, she explained that "Mrs. Tan" was given to her by members of a university-wide organization at the University of the Philippines, back when she identified and lived as a transgender woman during college, since she was told that she looked like a landlady charging rent from her tenants.[1]
