Sasha Velour is an up-and-coming fireball of talent, and campy fashion shaker, that resides in New York City. Graphic designer, cartoonist, illustrator, and most importantly drag artiste.
Sasha is the first drag performer, I've seen, that uses visual art in her numbers as a way of storytelling. She wanted more tools to share that narrative with the audience, so she started to use projected images…and from there she just went bonkers. Take a look at the phenomenal performance of her's titled Cellphone. It's the most avant garde thing you see all day. I have never seen anything like it. I was literally speechless. Sasha can also be seen this Friday when the ninth season of RuPaul's Drag Race starts. This is promising to be a group of the most talented season yet.
What great performance! Brava! She'd get my vote! Hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing how feminine she looks with a bald head!
ReplyDeleteThanks for these profiles you're doing of some the upcoming contestants on this season's Drag Race! Looking forward to it so much!
ReplyDeleteOk. That is the Coolest drag routine I have ever seen. Avant hard indeed!!!!! She will be some competition for sure. His mind must be extremely creative. Thank you for sharing that.
ReplyDeleteI have absolutely no words!!!!!!!! I have never seen anything like it.

ReplyDeleteI do believe those bitches better look out. In all my years of drag, that may be the most creative performance I recall.
ReplyDeleteYOU GO SASHA!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAmericas next drag superstar!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteEither she's gonna go all the way without having to lip sync, or she's gonna be brutally robbed by a lip sync (i love her and this lip sync, but I feel like she's gonna get a song that she won't be able to do.
ReplyDeleteHaving seen her perform, she can actually do a lot! High art, comedy, drama, runway and dance. She can make a number work to her favor. Now acting challenges may be another story.
DeleteIm more inclined to pageant queens, but this is high art. Undeniable. She is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteBRILLANT PERFORMANCE!
ReplyDeleteI love Sasha and she would most certainly be a different queen to win. Her performance style and fashion is off the muthafuckin chain.
ReplyDeleteI had been hoping for other queens to make it.... but I just became a fan od Sasha, Love the originality, hope she goes all the way !!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's Drag really turned into art!
ReplyDeleteYes, SO innovative!
