AMANDA TEARS - 21, Mouscron
As the youngest member of the cast, Amanda Tears is a passionate debutante. This trained stylist creates all her outfits from scratch. Sweet and sensitive, she’s counting on this adventure to learn and develop her own Drag. But mind you, she won’t let anyone steal her place or victory.
ATHENA SORGELIKIS – 27, Bruxelles
Athena Sorgelikis is the new sensation of Belgian Drag. She’s the happy Drag daughter of Edna Sorgelsen. As a proud representative of the RuPaul generation, she is the fierce ambassador of modern Drag based on conceptual and edgy looks.
BRITTANY VON BOTTOKX - 36, Mons
No one in Belgium likes wigs as much as Brittany Van Bottokx does. No matter their size, colour or shape, our beloved queen loves and wears them all. Tender and sweet, Brittany has a great sense of humour that reflects on her drag. Original and independent, she doesn’t fear the look of others and stands for what she believes in.
DRAG COUENNE- 24, Bruxelles
Drag Couenne is a trained actress, known for her powerful performances and her incredible sense of fashion and make-up. As a member of the collective “Not Allowed” which defends and supports trans performers, she represents a political form of Drag.
EDNA SORGELSEN- 34, Liège
Mythical figure of the Brussels drag Scene, Edna Sorgelsen is a very bubbly and witty drag queen. Socially engaged in the LGBTQIA+ community, she leads story times where she reads inclusive fairy tales to children in order to raise awareness on gender identity and promote tolerance. Exuberant, noisy and a little bit crazy, our dear Edna is also terribly endearing
MADMOISELLE BOOP- 37, Bruxelles
Proud entrepreneur of a well renowned Cabaret, Mademoiselle Boop, has over the years become the queen of Brussels’ nightlife. Starting from nothing, she has built her own empire where she now helps new talent emerge. Elegant and discreet but also terribly smart, Mademoiselle Boop’s intriguing profile might give the other contestants serious trouble.
MOCCA BONE - 35, Bruxelles
With her lovely smile and beautiful glitter beard, Mocca Bone is an enchanting creature. Born inColumbia and adopted by Belgian parents, she puts a smile on everyone’s face everywhere she goes. Former dancer of the Maurice Béjart Ballet, she will effortlessly manage to hook you up with her many RuVeals!
PEACH - 23, Liège
Peach is one of the many young queens who grew up watching RuPaul’s Drag Race while secretly dreaming to be part of it. Passionate about beauty and fashion, she developed great make-up and sewing skills on her own. An introvert by nature, Peach reveals herself when she embraces her fierce and sexy drag, and she’ll make sure you watch no one else but her!
SUSAN - 26, Gand
Born to a Walloon father and a Flemish Mother, Susan is the quintessential Belgian girl. Perfectly fluent in both French and Dutch, she navigates easily between the two communities. Inspired by her mother, she created an exquisite old school character. A character so funny and loveable that you will undoubtedly fall for her and call her ‘Auntie”.
VALENCIAGA - 26, Gand
Like their Flemish sister Susan, Valenciaga is also the fruit of love of a Walloon for a Flemish girl. Raised as a perfect bilingual, they set up their luggage in Flanders where they explore the Drag scene. Their acute sense of fashion and attention to details will no doubt guarantee us some iconic and unforgettable looks. Beware, a new luxury brand (queen) is born!
