Thinnest Contoured Nose on the West Coast

Magnolia Crawford is the epitome of a campy queen, her humor dry enough to chaff any pair of thighs. She manages to find the perfect balance between realistic, polished looks and staying true to her self-depreciating sense of humor (for the record: that sculpted nose is intentional). She isn't shy about wanting to be famous, and her clumsy lust for fame in her videos and tweets are the crown jewel of her unique humor.

Many queens get an early start in their careers, beginning their drag days in those mid-late teen years, Magnolia just couldn't wait that long! The first time this queen stepped out of the house in drag was at the ripe, young age of 12 years old! It seems that the early start has helped this queen perfect her art and polish her character into the comedienne that we know and love!  As the self-proclaimed love-child of Jackie Hill, Amanda Lepore, Courtney Love, and Satan, this queen is sure to deliver some snarky punchlines during the season. While comedy is one of her more obvious talents, Magnolia doesn't want you to forget how "absolutely stunningly gorgeous! ....and humble" she is, as mentioned in her Meet the Queens video. So humble!

Magnolia Crawford might be described as a church going newslady-type with mannerisms of Joan Allen's Betty Parker from the television show Pleasantville. While some of her season 6 sisters became known through their relations to previous contestants (Darienne, Laganja, and Trinity) or appearances on other reality television shows (Courtney and Adore), Magnolia's biggest claim to fame is her absolutely shelarious YouTube Channel. Many of Magnolia's videos feature her salesmanship skills as she tries to push fictional products, infomercial-style, complete with side-splitting 'fine print' captions and legal disclaimers. Add entrepreneurial to that list of Magnolia's positive attributes!
While she creates a different character unique to each video or performance, her campy and vibrant personality shines through, ensuring that we don't forget the true essence (or shall we say milk) of Magnolia. Her experience writing, editing, and acting in short video clips reminds us of several challenges we've seen in past seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race, so these skills might just come in handy down the road this season.
When it comes to the sudden surge in popularity and increased bookings and traveling for tours that will inevitably come to be following her time on RuPaul's Drag Race, Magnolia is probably more prepared than anyone. As a flight attendant, she is no stranger to the skies. Having traveled frequently between Seattle, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas, Magnolia recently relocated to Sin City, where her boyfriend of two years also resides. Although she auditioned for RuPaul's Drag race out of peer pressure from family and friends, we think Miss Bitchastic herself is ready for this competition of epic proportions, and can't wait to see how she does!

She won't go far in the competition but she'll become as famous as a Tammie Brown for sure.
