Hey dolls, its Dita! How you doing? Hope you hade a fierce day yesterday and now are ready for the second episode of "Born Naked, The Rest is Drag!" of the week. This time it features New York based, RuPauls Drag Race Season 2 darling and Miss Congeniality winner: Pandora Boxx.
Pandora Boxx's is the firce, funny and "female" alter ego of 41 year old Michael Steck, who has made Pandora's boxx a really great act to experience. Pandora has so far been part of RuPauls Drag Race, RuPauls Drag Race Allstars and RuPauls Drag U making her one of the most appearing queens on the franchise, as well as she has been on Shery Vines (Remember the post about Sherry? Read it here!) "She's Living For This" variety show and she currently is a writer for the Huffington Post LGBT New Voices. Besides that Pandora is a queen to watch, and having a look at how she developed during Drag Race, it becomed pretty obious why. Pandora is always changing up her wardrobe and tries to keep it interesting. But unfortunately that happened not enough during the show and so Ru called her the Susann Lucci of the competition: always on top, but sadly never the winner of a challenge. Pandora has a unique sense of humor that came to a great expression in her portrayal of Carol Channing in the Snatch Game. There she wowed the judges, but ultimately did not win. (It was a shame girl!) Her elemination from Drag race was one of the most controversial ones in herstory. But Pandora held her wigged up head high and went on from there.
She was voted the actual next drag superstar after her elimination by EW.com. She from then on had countless appearances on TV and her performances are funny, campy and entertaining. Besides beeing a landmark in the NYC drag community Pandora performs all over the world and has released several comedic songs. My favorite one is her rendition of "I Wanna Have Some Fun" and turning it into "Nice Car (Sham About Your Penis)". So go forth and check out this seasoned and beautiful queen!
See you tomorrow!
XOXO, Dita
