About[]
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars Season 10[]
“Phoenix rises from the ashes of Season 3—bigger, bolder, and ready to burn up her fellow queens. This boss bitch from the Atlanta drag scene has a fierce competitive streak, and wants to show the judges that after all these years, her charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent is still on fire!”[2]
Drag Name Origin[]
She was 18 when her and fellow Forsyth Central High School classmate and friend Christian Castelan snuck out to go to a Atlanta Pride festival in 1999 in Piedmont Park. After that, she fell in love with drag. Her name comes from the Phoenix animal, a mythological bird that rises from the ashes and recreates itself. She thinks the name is perfect for the type of drag she does as she is always recreating her look and pushing herself to the next level. She sees herself in drag to be very different from her boy self. She also has a fiery personality.[citation needed]
