Aquaria is the West Chester, Pennsylvania native who won the tenth season of RuPaul's Drag Race in 2018, taking three maxi challenges without ever landing in a lip sync. Known offstage as Giovanni Palandrani, she studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology and built a following on high-fashion conceptual looks that reached Vogue Italia before the show ever aired. Since winning she has toured internationally with Werq the World and worked as a recording artist, model and makeup artist. In Philadelphia she headlined Night of the Living Drag at The Met.
