Over the past few weeks, a lot of people have been asking about this "1 1/2 year old drag queen from the ocean". Adore Delano dominated the first round of the casting contest for RuPaul's Drag Race Season 6. If the voting continues in her favor, there is a good chance you might see her on the next season.
Her entry video caught our attention right from the beginning. Though Adore has no fucks in the bottom of her purse to give you, she will give you singing, acting, lip synching, and comedy. Seems like a dangerous combination, watch out Ru!

If you don't live on the West Coast, you may not have heard of Adore. She is relatively new to drag and most of her performances are in California. This queen already has quite a few famous names rooting for her though. Solange, from Season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race, gave Adore her support on twitter.
She even got a shout out from Perez Hilton on the purple carpet of the New Now Next Awards. We aren't sure how much to value his judgment though based on his outfit that night.
Adore has performed with a number of RuPaul stars recently.. Delta Work, Morgan McMichaels, Pandorra Box, and Willam to name just a few.
Some of you may not know that Adore competed in the casting contest for season 5 as well, but was beat out by the first-to-be-eliminated Penny Tration. Though there was controversy surrounding Penny's win last year (rumor has it Adore had more votes, but producers thought Penny was a better match for the show), Adore later said she was happy for Penny and described not winning as a blessing. She mentioned taking the extra time to improve her wardrobe and learn to sew (which we know, can make or break you on RPDR, ahem Jiggly).

Even if Adore doesn't make it onto Season 6, she is definitely gaining exposure. We like what we see so far. Good luck girl! Vote for Adore here
