Supremme de Luxe is the stage name of Daniel Blesa, and it better known as Spain's legendary drag queen, what RuPaul is to the US, and is known in the country for being a singer, actor, hostess, and it all has ultimately landed her as the main host of RuPaul's Drag Race Espana. Supremme might not be as fishy and as polished as the trend here in the US for the most "real looking woman", but she is stunning old school drag, and to me that's what I love. Supremme went looking for a name that was gender-neutral, and that also paid tribute to Diana Ross & the Supremes, not to mention all the fashion that comes with the 60' and 70's, which inspired her. Her trajectory started in December of 1997 in Madrid, after declaring herself as a conscientious objector from military service, and found in the world of cabaret, like so many other queens, a new source of income. Since then. Supremme has been traveling all across Spain working on television, films, theater, radio, and hosting drag events. She is known for one of the few Spanish artist that appear almost daily in some form of venue. Since 2013 she has been hosting the same successful party, Work Rita, and has single handily renewed the Madrid drag scene which almost went extinct. And if you have been watching Drag Race Espana, Supremme has established herself very quickly as " Not RuPaul" and I mean that as a compliment. She's smooth, more social with the queens, personable, quick on her feet, yet warm. On a side note the show in general , I've been very impressed with the judges who are quite possibly the most sophisticated and articulate panel any season of Drag Race has ever seen. I hear it's been so successful another season is already in the works. Perhaps Brooklyn Hytes and the judges on Drag Race Canada should watch and see how it's done. Yeah, I went there. Long live Supremme!!!!!!
