DRPH Superstar Precious Paula Nicole to appear at DragCon UK together with past winners from other Drag Race franchises in January next year.
Winner of the maiden season of “Drag Race Philippines” Precious Paula Nicole will debut in an international stage after being selected to participate at RuPaul’s DragCon to be held from January 6-8, 2023 at the ExCeL London in Newham, East London.
The drag queen will be joining other queens from the “RuPaul’s Drag Race” franchise, such as Drag Race S12 winner Jaida Essence Hall, season 11 winner Yvie Oddly, UK S1 winner The Vivienne, and All-Stars 4 winner Trinity the Tuck, two-time contestants Jinxk Monsoon and Silky Nutmeg Ganache, Jimbo from "Drag Race UK," and "Drag Race France" host Nicky Doll, as seen on DragCon’s Instagram post today, Oct. 14.
“My precious, delicious, ambitious! It’s time for the big reveal—[Drag Race Philippines] Season 1 champion [Precious Paula Nicole] is coming to #DragCon UK 2023!” they wrote.
The main stage will feature Alyssa Hunter, Elektra Fence, Veronica Green, Ginny Lemon, Luquisha Lubamba, and Filipino drag queen and DRPH judge Jiggly Caliente, among others.
"Can the FILIPINO Queens be in an area [and] we call it PEARLS of the Orient," she wrote. She then jokingly told Precious, "Maghahasik tayo ng lagim sa UK,” said Jiggy on the instagram post.
Precious Paula Nicole was still riding high when the announcement came following her coronation as the first-ever “Drag Race Philippines” superstar last Wednesday, Oct. 12, among 11 other queens.
She was up against Marina Summers and mesmerized the judges more during the finale after they lip-synched “Sirena” by Gloc-9.
“Life is precious and so are we. Let’s continue to inspire and let’s continue to love,” said the queen after winning.
“I am Precious Paula Nicole, your Drag Race superstar. Let’s party!”
“Drag Race Philippines,” was hosted by actor-TV host Paolo Ballesteros, premiered last August and was streamed on platforms like HBO Go, Discovery Plus and Wow Presents Plus.
