18
19	!Irene Dubois ([-16th-])
20	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15irenedubois_6.jpg]]
21
22	->'''Age''': 29
23	->'''From''': Seattle, Washington
24
25	->''sneezes'' "Okay, somebody's wearing cheap perfume... Oh wait, it's me!"
26
27	----
28
29	* AntiHumor: A charitable way of describing her talent show performance, which consists of Irene making ice water with long nails, and... that's it. Whatever the joke is supposed to be, she gets crickets and blank stares, and from there, it's only a matter of time. Ultimately bleeds into her exit line the same episode, which ''did'' make everyone laugh.
30	-->"Well, I may not have won the crown…" ''(immediately exits the main stage)''
31	* CuckooSnarker: Irene intentionally goes for weird, alien looks, but her sense of humor favors down & dirty shade. In the premiere, Luxx Noir London is in the room for all of half a minute before Irene deflates her ego.
32	* {{Irony}}: The editors make a huge point of showing that Irene has been dying to get onto the show for years, that everything in her drag career has led to this moment for her, and that she is ready to come in and be a huge threat for the crown. By the end of the premiere, her elimination has, to her own observation online, made her the lowest-ranking Drag Race contestant of all time, as no queen has ever placed sixteenth before.
33	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold:
34	** Despite her snarky, shady humor, when Irene is packing her things in Untucked, she can't help but gush at how quickly she came to think of the girls as friends. The girls gave that love right back, with a huge pile of notes left for an elated Irene.
35	** In an interview, Irene explained that her reading Luxx for her "[[BlatantLies 40-inch wig]]" wasn't meant to put her down, but to point out that whoever sold her that wig and claimed it was 40 inches had scammed her.
36	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: She's the drag sister of Season 14 finalist Bosco.
37	* ToiletHumor: In her mirror message on the way out, she claims she took a dump in one of the girls' stations. "But whomst?"
38	* WeHardlyKnewYe: Irene was eliminated in the season premiere.
39
40	!Princess Poppy ([-15th-])
41	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15princesspoppy.jpg]]
42
43	->'''Age''': 26
44	->'''From''': San Francisco, California
45
46	->''I'm homo...phobic."
47
48	----
49
50	* DemonicDummy: Has an inspired talent show performance, singing a duet with a puppet in the form of a hideous, deformed "twin" who hates her guts.
51	* MoodWhiplash: Poppy's lip-sync in episode 2 to "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" by Music/DianaRoss starts off giving Diana, and then suddenly jettisons off into a bunch of x-rated gyrations, mingling with the girls in back, and humor that just doesn't fit the song at ''all.'' Amethyst winds up sending her home pretty handily.
52	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Implied. She states in ''Untucked'' during the episode in which she's eliminated that her only real goal in the competition was not to be eliminated first, and she states that she intends to be fully herself in the coming lipsync. She puts on a wild and entertaining performance, but it seems deliberately unsuited for the song, and sure enough, Ru tells her to sashay away.
53	* TemptingFate: When Poppy is picked for Amethyst’s team for the comedy challenge, she remarks “Sorry, losers” to Team Leftovers, to which Ru remarks may haunt her. Cut to the end of the episode and she gets eliminated.
54
55
56	!Sugar ([-14th-])
57	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15sugar.jpg]]
58
59	->'''Age''': 23
60	->'''From''': Los Angeles, California
61
62	->'''Sugar''': Well, this doesn't look like the toy store.\
63	'''Spice''': Sweetie, that was my line!\
64	'''Sugar''': Ugh, whatever!
65
66	----
67
68	* BadImpressionists: Her Creator/TrishaPaytas impression for ''Snatch Game'' is more obnoxious than anything, with a lack of any real jokes. With her and Spice's inexperience showing, they're put in the bottom, with Sugar going home.
69	* CoolBigSis: Sugar and Spice both admit that though Spice is the older twin (though not by much, anyway, considering that they're ''twins''), Sugar acts like this towards Spice. She guides Spice and even says she feels like a "proud gay mom" during Spice's talent show.
70	* DumbBlonde: The basis of her Sugar persona.
71	* FlatCharacter: Doesn’t really exhibit much range for any of her characters on the show beyond “slutty dumb girl”. Ultimately what puts her in the bottom for her very simple impersonation of Creator/TrishaPaytas.
72	* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The light feminine (aesthetically) to her sister Spice's dark feminine.
73	* OurLawyersAdvisedThisTrope: For her first runway, she comes out in a recreation of a 90's yellow Versace gown while also sporting a brown wig and a red rose in her hand. The look is very clearly based on Disney's ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' but isn't called out as such.
74	* ThemeTwinNaming: Gets her drag name from the old English nursery rhyme; ''What Are Little Boys Made Of''?
75	-->"What are little girls made of? / '''Sugar and spice''' / And everything nice"
76	* {{Troll}}: Admitted in a post-show interview to having enjoyed teasing Ru off-camera just before the Snatch Game.
77	* TurnOfTheMillennium: Very clearly bases her drag style on the sleek aesthetics of the Y2K era.
78	* TheTwink: Again, with her sister Spice. Bonus points for being very new to the drag scene among the cast despite being a few months older than their cast mate Luxx Noir London.
79	* UrExample: While drag family members competing in the same season is nothing new at this point, this is the first time across the whole franchise that two biological siblings are cast together on the same season.
80
81	!Amethyst ([-13th-])
82	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15amethyst.jpg]]
83
84	->'''Age''': 27
85	->'''From''': West Hartford, Connecticut
86
87	->''Is this thing on?"
88
89	----
90
91	* AmicableExes: With Robin Fierce. Mostly.
92	* GagNose: She is very self conscious about her hooked nose and tries to minimize its appearance when blending her makeup.
93	* NerdGlasses: Sports a big pair in her confessional look.
94	* OnlyOneName: Jokes about it in her ''Entertainment Weekly'' interview.
95	-->'''Amethyst:''' I’m just, like, one name, like Music/{{Adele}}, or Music/{{Madonna}}, or UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}}.
96	* RuleOfThree: Amethyst had already been in the bottom twice by the time of episode 4, but had survived both lip syncs. The third time, however, she ended up going home.
97	* RummageSaleReject: What ultimately puts her in the bottom a third time in the design challenge. Her garment is pretty clearly a piece of cut fabric affixed to her with a belt, with a fake mink as an accessory. The judges see through it and she goes home.
98
99	!Robin Fierce ([-12th-])
100	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15robinfierce.jpg]]
101
102	->'''Age''': 26
103	->'''From''': Hartford, Connecticut
104
105	->''Mirror Mirror on the wall, who's the fiercest queen of them all?"
106
107	----
108
109	* AmicableExes: With Amethyst. Mostly.
110	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Alongside her season costar Luxx Noir London, she’s the drag daughter of ''Drag Race'' veteran Mo Heart.
111	* OutOfFocus: Rarely gets any screen-time or confessionals outside of the runway. The fact that this season boasts the largest cast in the history of the show while also having a much shorter running time of 40 minutes doesn't help either.
112	* ShrinkingViolet: Is a very reserved and soft spoken queen. Ultimately leads to her downfall in the Old Friends Gold challenge as she barely stands out among her group and delivers a fairly generic outfit on the runway that week.
113	* WeHardlyKnewYe: An unusual example as Robin is not the first eliminated queen, but as mentioned above, she seems to have been nearly edited out of the show entirely. There is ''some'' kind of storyline happening in her elimination episode, but all the show really manages to tell us about her is that she "plays it too safe" and that she and Amethyst dated once.
114
115	!Aura Mayari ([-11th-])
116	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15auramayari.jpg]]
117
118	->'''Age''': 30
119	->'''From''': Nashville, Tennessee
120
121	->''Do you feel that aura? I bet you do!"
122
123	----
124	* BadImpressionists: While she has the look down cold, her impression of famous influencer Bretman Rock doesn’t really go anywhere and she very narrowly avoids being in the bottom only thanks to her runway look.
125	* BlackComedy: As she exits, she cracks a joke that leaves some people cackling and some ''deathly'' uncomfortable.
126	-->'''Aura:''' ''My dead dad will haunt you all."
127	* GenreBlindness: An odd example, but during both the lead-up and filming of the ''Daytona Winds 2'' acting challenge, she is given a line that is very clearly a reference to a previous season (Alyssa Edwards' infamous "rigga morris" quote, and "any hole is a goal", from Aquaria's ''Snatch Game'' performance as Melania Trump). She point-blank states she doesn't know what the first one is, and the second one requires her many takes to get right.
128	* InformedAbility: Claims to be a dancer known for doing high-energy choreo. This never shows much during her time on the show, and DanceBattler Jax positively flattens her in the lipsync, resulting in other queens calling into question her skills. Granted, she has also since admitted to having been trying to perform [[GameBreakingInjury on a leg injury that hadn't finished healing.]]
129	* ManlyGay: She's very handsome out of drag, and sports a pretty impressive set of muscles. The other queens definitely notice, and Aura wastes no time in declaring herself the trade of the season.
130	* ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: Mayari is a moon goddess in Kapampangan[[note]]ethnic group native to the Philippines[[/note]] mythology.
131	* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: For her Beautiful Nightmare runway, she comes out in a beautiful but simple black gown. When she turns to show her back, the dress reveals into a red bedazzled spine and rib cage motif that trails red fabric all the way down to the hem. For bonus points, the dress itself is clearly inspired by [[https://fashionhistory.fitnyc.edu/1938-schiaparelli-skeleton/ the Schiaparelli skeleton dress that emerged from a collaboration with Salvador Dali]].
132
133	!Jax ([-10th-])
134	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15jax.jpg]]
135
136	->'''Age''': 25
137	->'''From''': Queens, New York
138
139	->''Make room for your MVP, spelled J-A-X!"
140
141	* DanceBattler: Robin Fierce and Aura Mayari both wound up in the bottom with Jax, and found out the hard way that Jax's impressive talent show performance was no fluke, as both fall victim to her impressive acrobatics. In fact, Anetra chooses Jax as her final opponent in the Lip-sync Lalaparuza ''because'' Jax is such a good lip-syncer that she's a WorthyOpponent (as opposed to Spice, who's weak at lip-syncs).
142	* GenderBlenderName: While Jax, short for Jackson, is her real name, her decision to use it as her drag name comes from Jax from ''[[Franchise/MortalKombat Mortal Kombat]]'', because she liked the irony of having the same name as the super-masculine Army major.
143	* LivingDrawing: For the second time across the whole franchise, she portrays Art/TheMonaLisa as a ''Snatch Game'' character. However, unlike her previous portrayal by Hugáceo, her character is mostly just a painted face and her hands sticking out of a Mona Lisa cutout painting.
144	* KnowsTheRopes: For her talent show performance, she lipsyncs to "Attitude" by Leikeli 47 while skipping on a jump rope that is '''connected to her wigs’ braids '''!
145	* PintSizedPowerhouse: A fierce lip-syncer, enough to go toe-to-toe with Anetra, yet only 5'3".
146	* ShoutOut: As mentioned above, Jax is also a character from the ''Franchise/MortalKombat'' franchise, and she even references that franchise in her exit line: ''"Fatality."''
147	* WholeCostumeReference: Her ''Metallica'' runway look is a shout-out to her namesake, complete with cybernetic arms, dog tags, and camo.
148	* WorthyOpponent: When Anetra chooses her opponent for the Lalaparuza, she picks Jax; in a later interview, she says it was specifically because she wanted to go up against the best, and not take the easy win against Spice. Jax loses the lip sync but puts up a great fight.
149
150	!Spice ([-9th-])
151	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15spice.jpg]]
152
153	->'''Age''': 23
154	->'''From''': Los Angeles, California
155
156	->'''Sugar''': Well, this doesn't look like the toy store.\
157	'''Spice''': Sweetie, that was my line!\
158	'''Sugar''': Ugh, whatever!
159
160	----
161
162	* BadImpressionists: Her Music/MileyCyrus impression for ''Snatch Game'' has some of the references right, but Spice fails to really do much with them besides make faces and act cartoonishly stupid. With her and Sugar's inexperience showing, they're put in the bottom, where Spice sends Sugar home.
163	* DidntThinkThisThrough: During the ''Lip-sync Lalaparuza Smackdown,'' Spice is tasked with going against Malaysia, and gets to choose the song. Picking Music/CamilaCabello's "Don't Go Yet" because she knows for a fact that Malaysia doesn't know the words? Definitely a sound strategy. That is, except for the fact that Spice ''also'' doesn't know the words, so she still loses.
164	* EarWorm: "Dingaling", Spice's self-written rap for the talent show. It just sticks!
165	-->''The boys wanna know where ma dingaling go, where ma dingaling go, where ma dingaling go!''
166	* {{Keet}}: The twins are high-energy, upbeat, and endlessly chatterish. They're quickly pegged as annoyances to the rest of the queens, though only Spice lasted long enough to see this become something of a little brother quality to the others.
167	* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The dark feminine (aesthetically) to her sister Sugar's light feminine.
168	* LetsGetDangerous: Being relatively inexperienced as a performer, Spice is not much of a lipsyncer, as is clear by her last episode. However, she shows quite a bit of spirit in her lipsync against Salina Estitties, smashing her disco ball accessory on the ground, much to Malaysia's pride and which was referred to with this trope.
169	* NaiveNewcomer: While her drag presentation is excellent, she is noticeably green in several other performance fields that are required for Drag Race.
170	* NotWorthKilling: For the final Lalaparuza face-off, Anetra is randomly selected and has to choose one queen to save and one queen to be her opponent: Jax or Spice. She chooses Jax for the lip sync, saying she thinks it would be unsporting of her to pick Spice.
171	* OurLawyersAdvisedThisTrope: For her first runway, she comes out in fire hydrant red wig and a blue dress that is clearly based on Ariel's blue dress from her ''Franchise/DisneyPrincess'' image.
172	* ThemeTwinNaming: Gets her drag name from the old English nursery rhyme; ''What Are Little Boys Made Of''?
173	-->"What are little girls made of? / '''Sugar and spice''' / And everything nice"
174	* {{Troll}}:
175	** Spice is critiqued by Michelle Visage in episode 7 for giving the same cutesy, puppy-dog trot to sell her runway looks every single week. When Ru tells her she's safe, Spice has the audacity to do that exact same walk to the back of the stage. Michelle is visibly frustrated.
176	-->'''[=RuPaul=]:''' Cue the sniper!
177	** After her elimination, she proceeds to trot past the exit ''three times'', as a final farewell to Michelle.
178	* TurnOfTheMillennium: Very clearly bases her drag style on the sleek aesthetics of the Y2K era like her sister but with a more punkish edge.
179	* TheTwink: Again, with her sister Sugar. Bonus points for being very new to the drag scene among the cast despite being a few months older than their cast mate Luxx Noir London.
180	* UrExample: While drag family members competing in the same season is nothing new at this point, this is the first time across the whole franchise that two biological siblings are cast together on the same season.
181
182
183	!Malaysia Babydoll Foxx ([-8th + Miss Congeniality-])
184	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15malaysiababydollfoxx.jpg]]
185
186	->'''Age''': 32
187	->'''From''': Miami, Florida
188
189	->''I'm just here to Foxx shit up!"
190
191	----
192	* BigBeautifulWoman: One of two big girls this season, alongside Mistress Isabelle Brooks.
193	* NiceGirl: Is voted as this season’s Miss Congeniality by the cast at the finale.
194	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: The drag daughter of Season 4 alum Lashaun Beyond. For her day job, she is a makeup artist for the rap duo Music/CityGirls.
195	* RealityShowGenreBlindness: Claims to have taken only one sewing class before filming started and was very nervous going into her first design challenege. She averts the usual fate by designing a gorgeous tropical magenta ChurchLady ensemble that gives her a high placement that week.
196	* RecursiveCrossdressing: For ''Snatch Game'', Malaysia portrays the fabulously CampGay rapper Saucy Santana.
197	* RepetitiveName: Invoked; she's fond of calling herself "Malaysia Babydoll, Babydoll, Babydoll, Foxx" just to make the name stick in the head that much more.
198	* ShrinkingViolet: Though she definitely has some ferocity in her, Malaysia in general is reserved and somewhat prone to doubts. Becomes her ultimate downfall in the interview challenge, as she easily gets overwhelmed by Frankie Grande and doesn’t know how to best conduct the interview.
199
200	!Marcia Marcia Marcia ([-7th-])
201	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15marciamarciamarcia.jpg]]
202
203	->'''Age''': 25
204	->'''From''': New York City, New York
205
206	->''Ow, my nose!"
207
208	----
209	* DanceBattler: Rarely gets to show it as she never placed in the bottom before her elimination, but she's a trained ballerina and knows how to use it to her advantage. Malaysia found this out the hard way and even Anetra didn't leave without a few bites taken.
210	* DudeLooksLikeALady: To an extent. She wears little makeup in her drag persona compared to her competitors and the jury asks her to try a more exaggerated 'drag' mug on stage.
211	* GracefulLoser: Seems perfectly happy after Anetra sends her home in the episode 11 lip-sync, content in the knowledge that being on the show helped her grow as a drag queen.
212	* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: While she delivers in the performance challenges, her runway package appears much more ready to wear than her costars and she's frequently read for it by the judges and competitors.
213	-->'''Luxx''': Marcia Marcia Marcia. You know, looking through your closet, [[CheapCostume it looks like you got everything from Marshalls, Marshalls, Marshalls.]]
214	* IronicName: Despite being named after the Brady sister famous for overshadowing her sisters, she herself largely coasts through the competition until her elimination, although she did place highly in both Snatch Game and the Daytona Wind. Being an accomplished actress, it's largely agreed that she would've finally won the very next challenge had she not been eliminated, the annual Rusical.
215	* OvershadowedByAwesome: She currently holds the record for most episodes cleared without winning or placing in the bottom, at 10 episodes.
216	* RecursiveCrossdressing: For ''Snatch Game'', Marcia portrays Tim Gunn, the mentor from ''Series/ProjectRunway''. She ''nails'' Gunn's distinctive voice and mannerisms, and places high for the week.
217	* RepetitiveName: Often shortened to Marcia x3, or just Marcia.
218	* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Her drag name is a reference to the perennially overlooked Jan Brady, and her iconic line from ''Series/TheBradyBunch''.
219	-->'''Jan Brady''': Well all I hear all day long at school is how great Marcia is at this or how wonderful Marcia did that, '''Marcia, Marcia, Marcia'''!
220	* StalkerWithACrush: Her talent show performance is a hysterical interpretive dance number where her character is absolutely OBSESSED with … Ross Matthews.
221	* StatuesqueStunner: The tallest queen of the season at 6'0".
222	* UnderestimatingBadassery: On the receiving end of this in the ''Lip-sync Lalaparuza Smackdown,'' when Malaysia thinks she'll have an easy time against Marcia. Marcia has worked on ''Broadway,'' and has enough stage presence that taking down Malaysia is no problem for her.
223
224
225	!Salina [=EsTitties=] ([-6th-])
226	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15salinaestitties.jpg]]
227
228	->'''Age''': 31
229	->'''From''': Los Angeles, California
230
231	->''Is this the meeting for the itty bitty [=EsTitty=] committee? 'Cause they're here!"
232
233	----
234
235	* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: While she didn't end up in the bottom thanks to her performance in that week's comedy challenge, her ''Metallica'' runway, which featured many California street signs on a bodysuit, ended up being this season’s Golden Boot Award winner due to looking gaudy and confusing.
236	* MotorMouth: Don't let Salina get a good head of steam, because she will talk your ear off. As the competition progresses, however, Salina gets a little less boisterous, as the pressures of the competition take their toll.
237	* NoIndoorVoice: Easily among the loudest of this season’s batch of queens.
238	* OvershadowedByAwesome: Made it to a more than respectable sixth place (in a 16 queen season) but never won a single challenge.
239	* ProneToTears: She's more likely to get teary-eyed than the other girls, and it's more noticeable as the season goes on, the pressures of competing catch up with her, and Salina keeps finding herself having to lip-sync.
240	* PunnyName: "Salina's titties".
241	* RefugeInAudacity: Her choice for ''Snatch Game'' is a HardDrinkingPartyGirl version of UsefulNotes/TheVirginMary, complete with pregnant belly. To drive the point home, she even sells prayer candles with her character on the cover as part of her merch! Where Salina errs, however, is her reliance on pre-planned bits, which misses the point of ''Snatch Game'' as an improv challenge, so Salina is only safe.
242	* SpicyLatina: Salina's drag persona is campy and loud, and she references her Latina heritage every chance she gets.
243	-->'''Salina:''' ''[describing her drag persona]'' She is a chola [[{{Gangbangers}} from the hood]]. ''[...]'' But it's okay, everybody ''loves'' her!
244	* VisualMetaphor: Salina's dress at the Season 15 finale features a spin where she turns around in her PimpedOutDress to display a large slice missing from her rear end, with the inside dyed to look like her body is a cake. This is a double example, in that she is not only referencing her lip sync with Amethyst[[note]]wherein on the lyric "Ooh, let them eat cake!", Salina gestured to her ass[[/note]], but also served as a symbolic olive branch to Ross Matthews.[[note]]Shortly after her exit on the show aired, film surfaced of a rant from Salina at a club, featuring the phrase "you can eat my ass, f[bleep]t". Salina confirmed that inbetween this rant and the finale, [[HeartfeltApology she had apologized and she and Ross were now on good terms]].[[/note]]
245
246	!Loosey [=LaDuca=] ([-5th-])
247	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/15looseyladuca.jpg]]
248
249	->'''Age''': 32
250	->'''From''': Ansonia, Connecticut
251
252	->''Oh Loosey, you've got some slaying to do! Oh!"
253
254	----
255
256	* AlwaysSecondBest: Does reasonably well for herself during many of the performance challenges but always comes short of winning which starts getting to her self esteem. Acquits herself nicely by her elimination with two maxi-challenge wins and three mini challenge wins.
257	* DeathOrGloryAttack: Her impersonation for the ''Snatch Game'' is the legendary Creator/JoanRivers. Gay icons (such as Creator/RueMcClanahan, Creator/JoanCrawford, Music/MariahCarey, and even Creator/RuPaul himself) are notoriously all-in bets when it comes to ''Snatch Game'', since anything less than perfect will usually result in the queen being eliminated.
258	* DefiantToTheEnd: Loosey doesn't take her elimination very well. During her elimination speech, her bitterness is palpable, and she insists that other queens (without naming names) deserved to be in the bottom instead.
259	* EarWorm: Let Loose, her talent show song which is surprisingly catchy.
260	* InsultComic: For ''Snatch Game,'' Loosey does one of the all-time greats in this department -- Joan Rivers. After [[Characters/CanadasDragRaceSeason1 Jimbo]] set the bar pretty high for a Joan Rivers impression in season 1 of ''Canada's Drag Race'' (which won the week, mind you), Loosey easily matches and maybe even surpasses Jimbo, with a quip for ''everyone'' on the panel ready to go. Her challenge win is no surprise (which is saying a ''lot'' after Mistress' Creator/RosieODonnell).
261	-->'''Loosey!Joan (to Bryce)''': Rocket scientist my ass!
262	* ManOfAThousandVoices: Easily the best impressionist among this seasons’s cast. She delivers pitch perfect impressions of Creator/DollyParton and Creator/JoanRivers during the season, right down to the looks and mannerisms.
263	* ShoutOut: Her entrance line is a reference to Ricky Ricardo's famous (but [[BeamMeUpScotty often misquoted]]) line "Lucy, you've got some 'splaining to do!" from ''Series/ILoveLucy''.
264	* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Her drag name is a reference to Creator/LucilleBall and the [=LaDuca=] shoe company.
265	* SmallNameBigEgo: Her frustrations with her placements aren't played up as eliciting much sympathy. While she is an excellent drag queen with creative ideas, her attitude quickly starts to wear on the other queens. Loosey is unrepentant, becoming TheResenter when her performances are passed over and her attitude tanking especially when she finally places in the bottom and is eliminated--despite getting further than many other queens.
266	* SoreLoser: As mentioned before, Loosey is very bitter about her elimination, saying that other queens (without naming names) should've been in the bottom instead of her.

277	----
278
279	* AscendedFanboy: The most extreme example. She has a Drag Race reference for every occasion going back to the early seasons. Beyond that, she serves two runway homages to [=RuPaul=] during her run on the show and another to Alaska Thunderfuck’s outfit at the season 5 crowning during the season 15 live crowning.
280	* TheBabyOfTheBunch: At 22, she is the youngest member of the cast. However, she has more drag performance experience than Sugar and Spice, who are a few months older than her.
281	* BorrowedCatchphrase: Has a serious habit of using vintage ''Drag Race'' memes in her confessionals, in virtually every episode.
282	* CharacterFilibuster: When Ru asks the infamous question "who should go home tonight and why," Luxx proceeds to hold the floor and give one of the longest and most elaborate responses to that question ever. She elaborates on the strengths and characteristics on literally every other queen on stage, and it all builds up to her settling on Loosey as her answer, calling her unoriginal. It is a long, long way around to get to that read, which only makes it hit Loosey that much harder.
283	* TheFashionista: Has a great eye for silhouettes and color blocking. She wins her first design challenge in a Michelle Visage-inspired look that is best described as Cavalli meets Versace. She also makes this the theme for her finale performance, with "It's Giving Fashion".
284	* ItsAllAboutMe: Luxx is ''very'' high on herself from moment one.
285	* LocationThemeNaming: Her drag surname is taken from the capital city of the UsefulNotes/UnitedKingdom.
286	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Alongside her season costar Robin Fierce, she's the drag daughter of ''Drag Race'' veteran Mo Heart.
287	* TooManyBelts: Her promo look consists of nothing but belts strapped all over her body.
288	* TheTwink: Fits the body type even more than the twins, and arguably the presentation as well.
289	* WholeCostumeReference: Homages a couple of [=RuPaul=]'s looks from days gone by during the shows, particularly her "shredded" look.

299	----
300	* BigBeautifulWoman: One of two big girls this season, alongside Malaysia Babydoll Foxx.
301	* BigFun: She has a natural joie de vivre about her, in and out of drag. Of course, being an especially shady, mischievous queen, Mistress' idea of "fun" often gets her in trouble.
302	* BrutalHonesty: Ever the classic drag queen, Mistress loves some good shade, but even more than that, she loves calling things like she sees it. Mistress is blunt and unfiltered and she's ''proud'' of it, and her honesty has ruffled some feathers, particularly Malaysia, who has a mid-season tiff with Mistress over it. She also doesn't have much patience for people who sugarcoat things -- when Spice shies away multiple times in episode 5 from saying Aura should have been in the bottom in the previous episode, Mistress is incredibly disappointed.
303	-->'''Mistress:''' Lesson #1 for my future daughters -- if you have a chance to read a bitch, ''read them down.''
304	* CelebrityResemblance: Mistress does Creator/RosieODonnell for her ''Snatch Game'' performance, and she has the look down perfectly. She has a natural gift of gab to back it up.
305	* CoolBigSis: Though she initially felt annoyed by Sugar and Spice, she quickly came to like them and dispensed some of her wisdom to them, eventually taking them into her drag family officially.
306	* TheFashionista: Never seems to miss on the runways, and presents a classy, glamorous image whenever she can.
307	* HospitalHottie: Dons the look for her finale performance of "Drag Delusion".
308	* IAmBigBoned: [[InvokedTrope Invokes this trope]] in her ''Meet The Queens'' video:
309	-->'''Mistress:''' A lot of people think I'm a big girl, like I'm fat, but I'm really just big-boned. But my heart goes out to the plus-size girls.
310	* ObfuscatingStupidity: Another InvokedTrope she deploys in reference to her weight:
311	-->'''Salina:''' ''[after Mistress has entered the Werk Room]'' Yas, a big girl!\
312	'''Mistress:''' ''[in a tone of mock surprise]'' A big girl? [[WhereWhere Where?]]
313	* OlderIsBetter: Mistress practices a very classic, old-school style of drag, which ironically has become seemingly rare in the modern age of quirky drag, glamor drag, and to the malign of many, [=TikTok=] drag. Mistress' nailing of this particular style makes her stand out and often lands her praise from the judges.
314	* OpportunisticBastard: Aura has the big role for ''The Daytona Winds'' that Mistress really wanted, as Aura got to pick all the roles. Unfortunately, Aura reads through the role and starts realizing that she's out of her depth. Mistress slides in immediately, and smooth-talks Aura into trading roles under the guise of helping a sister out. That smooth-talking works -- Mistress nails the role and wins the challenge, and to rub salt in the wound, Aura still tanks her performance and gets eliminated.
315	* TangledFamilyTree: Often touts herself as representing the "Brooks Dynasty". In a twist, she's not talking about that of prior Brooks drag queens seen on the show, but her drag mother Chevelle Brooks, and is in fact more closely related through her to the Davenports, who nonetheless still qualify.
316	* TeamMom: To Sugar and Spice, despite only being a few days (not months, ''days!'') older than them. With her having adopted Sugar, and Malaysia becoming her drag sister through her adoption of Spice, this puts her in this role within her drag family, as she's far more outspoken and confident than Malaysia and the twins.
317	* VocalDissonance: The way Mistress does her makeup makes her look much older than she is, so hearing her youthful voice when she’s in drag is a bit jarring (though her voice fits her face much better when she's not in drag).
318	* YoungerThanTheyLook: You’d be forgiven for thinking she’s a much older queen given how she paints her mug and carries herself, but Mistress is actually one of the season's youngest queens at 24 years old.

328	----
329	* TheAce: By her third win, she ties with Sasha Colby, a literal legend in the industry who lives up to her name and makes her every bit a front runner for the crown.
330	* BaitAndSwitch: Her description for her Puffer Please runway.
331	-->'''Anetra''': I’m representing the Las Vegas state bird which is the prostitute!
332	* BewareTheQuietOnes:
333	** Anetra has a low-key premiere with not a lot of eyes on her, until her talent show performance -- contrasting some incredible duckwalking and dancing, with having the Pit Crew hold boards for her so she can [[BrickBreak chop them in half]] -- stuns everyone in attendance. During critiques, Ru simply can't get over how effective her showmanship was, and Anetra wins the week, putting the whole cast on notice.
334	** To an extent, Anetra carries this through most of the season. While perfectly approachable, she's not quite as big a personality as the other girls, but get her on stage to perform, and she has dazzling efficiency. Luxx even alludes to it in episode 12, saying you never know quite what to expect from Anetra.
335	* BilingualBonus: Her SignatureMove is the duck walk. Guess what "anitra" means in Italian?
336	* BloodKnight: Of the noble variety. Given the choice of saving one and battling the other, Anetra picks Jax for the lip sync and lets Spice be safe.
337	--> '''Anetra''': I can't lip sync against Spice. Like, do y'all think that's fair?
338	* BrickBreak: Her talent show intersperses dancing with her tae kwon do training by chopping boards in half (including one with a ''roundhouse kick''), which are held by the Pit Crew. Anetra is sure to explain to Ru later that she had practiced with the Pit Crew beforehand to make sure she didn't scare the crap out of them.
339	* CharacterTic: Has a habit of licking one of her fingers when stomping the runway or during her performances.
340	* DanceBattler: Almost literally. She’s a Vegas showgirl with a background in tae kwon do, which gives her incredible range and presence when performing onstage. To wit, during the course of the season, she lipsyncs six times, and exclusively seems to end up pitted against similarly excellent dancers. None stop her march to the crown until the very finale.
341	* TheDreaded: No queen wants to go against either her or Sasha Colby during the Lalaparuza.
342	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Originally comes from the same drag family as season 3 and all stars 5 alum Indiah Ferrah and used to go by Anetra Ferrah.
343	* TheFashionista: A seasoned seamstress who creates many of her own looks for the show. She also stands out among the cast for being the best runway walker for the season.
344	* MartialArtsForMundanePurposes: She uses her tae kwon do skills to good use in the talent show, but not in the context of fighting, but rather breaking some chopping boards during her dance performance.
345	* OutOfFocus: Anetra absolutely crushes the talent show, but then curiously spends the next couple episodes with no confessionals, owing to the tightly-edited nature of this season. Breaks out of it by the time of the ''Lip-Sync Lalaparuza Smackdown''... unfortunately, it's because she's forced to lip-sync three times.
346	* Rule63: Her pick for ''Snatch Game'' is none other than a gender flipped version of famous British TV chef Creator/GordonRamsay.
347	* RuggedScar: Paints one across one eye as part of her mug.
348	* SignatureMove: Duck walking, which had so delighted Ru during her talent show and quickly becomes her go-to move onstage.
349	* WearingAFlagOnYourHead: One of her runway outfits has the flags of each country her ethnic background traces to -- the Philippines, Japan, Puerto Rico, and Germany.

361	* TheAce: Sasha's reputation precedes her. She was known as one of the most gifted performers in the American drag scene long before she was cast, which she lives up to in the ''Lipsync Lalaparuza Smackdown'' by taking down Anetra (who is no slouch herself). However, she also proves her natural stage presence, charisma, and willingness to act the fool, when she wins the commercial challenge. By the midpoint of the competition she has won three (maxi) challenges when everyone else has at most won one. By the finale, she leads the Top 4 with four wins to her name. And in the finale, she outclasses Anetra in the final lip-sync, on her way to one of the most definitive season wins of the original series.
362	* BlackComedy: During the gay heaven commercial challenge, Sasha (playing God) transitions between scenes by '''snapping her own neck.'''
363	* TheDreaded: For the ''Lipsync Lalaparuza Smackdown,'' everyone makes it clear they do not want to face Sasha, and for good reason. In the end, Sasha is left to go against Anetra, mainly because Anetra is ''also'' The Dreaded to the other queens on the back of her now-legendary talent show win. And Sasha defeats her!
364	* EarlyBirdCameo: Was brought up in the very first episode of Season 14 as the legendary drag mother of Kerri Colby.
365	* [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer Even The Gay Guys Want Her]]: Played For Laughs. Anetra is a gay man out of drag, but lightheartedly confesses to questioning her sexuality after seeing Sasha (who is a woman) performing "Blame It On The Edit."
366	* TheFashionista: She wins the ball in episode 9, and by that point she'd already put out an impressive runway package that's conceptually on another level from most of the other queens.
367	* {{Foreshadowing}}: Anetra vs Sasha in the Lalaparuza: Sasha wins. Anetra vs Sasha in the finale: well, who won the season?
368	* HulaAndLuaus: Deconstructed. For her entrance look, she pays homage to her native Hawaii in an elaborate ensemble referencing traditional Hawaiian warriors instead of the more commonly known hula dancers. The editors play with this further by adding booming percussive music in the background as she enters which only adds to her impact as fierce competition.
369	* OneDegreeOfSeparation: A legend to many queens within the Drag Race franchise and internationally, Sasha is very well connected to several members of past seasons. To wit; she is the drag mother of Season 14's Kerri Colby, crowned Season 8's Naysha Lopez as her Miss Continental successor, was a regular cast member on Season 9 winner Sasha Velour’s monthly show ''Nightgowns'', and she was once roommates with Kylie Sonique Love, the winner of All Stars 6.
370	* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Her drag surname, which is shared by a whole drag house of trans women, was originally adopted in tribute to the super-rich Colby family of the 80s classic soap opera, ''Series/{{Dynasty}}''.
371	* TheStoner: Invoked for one of her runway looks during the ball, when she comes out in a dress that looks like a bag of weed, with a giant blunt as a headpiece. She and Anetra also do a double-act full of stoner humor for the standup challenge.
372	* {{Stripperiffic}}: Has zero qualms about showing her immaculate figure on the runway in her costumes.
