Nina West was a celebrated drag performer long before she was crowned Miss Congeniality on RuPaulās Drag Race season 11. Today, she remains booked and busy. Around the time she competed on All Stars 9 to raise money for the Trevor Project, the Ohio native was starring in Hairsprayās national tour, working with Tina Romero on the queer zombie film Queens of the Dead, and touring a new show called The Very Queen.
āI think the largest obstacle I faced this year was the urge to say yes to everything and realizing there is only so much I can do,ā West says. āI recognized this year ā and this time on Drag Race ā that I [could] be more intentional in the work I was doing. Itās tough to manage it all, but I overcame it by taking it one day at a time and letting some things go.ā
West tells fans to āhold on to their wigsā for 2025, as sheās currently writing for a Harper Collins project, recording new music, and continuing to perform around the world. @ninawest
