Pearl Liaison, simply known as Pearl, is the stage name of Matthew James Lent,[1] a drag queen, DJ, illustrator, makeup artist, performer, and Season 7 runner-up of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Pearl used to go by "Vladonna" and "Sigourney Beaver", before her ex-boyfriend gave her her current name.[citation needed]
