Who Is RuPaul's Drag Race's Elliott With 2 Ts?
The new year started off with a fabulous bang we all needed, courtesy of RuPaul's Drag Race. Season 13 of the esteemed drag competition series kicked off on New Year's Day 2021, just a few weeks after the season's cast was announced on Twitter.
There are so many contestants to obsess over. Whether you love them or love to hate them, there are some serious personalities that will make for drama and laughs throughout the season. One contestant that's already ruffling feathers is Elliott With 2 Ts. The drag queen and professional ballet dancer hails from Las Vegas, Nev. The 26-year-old has been doing drag for 12 years now, according to their VH1's "Meet The Queens" video.
Elliott describes her drag style as "kind of like a high-end housewife meets Jennifer Lopez." She shared the biggest misconception about herself as well. "A huge misconception about me is that I'm unapproachable and that I'm kind of cold," she said. "I'm goofy, I love to laugh, I love to be stupid. A lot of people, they seem to feel a type of way about me because of the way I present myself. But I'm a ballet dancer, I can't help it."
Elliott had some trouble bonding with the other ladies.
Elliott With Two Ts shared some more interesting tidbits about herself. For one, she's not into the getting ready aspect of drag as much as other queens. She's all about performing and elevating drag as an art form (per ScreenRant).
Elliott is the last drag queen introduced in the season premiere, where she joined Tina Burner and Kahmora Hall to perform "Lady Marmalade." Viewers and queens alike pegged Elliott as a weak link after the performance (per Vulture). Luckily for her, she wasn't eliminated after being voted the weakest link. Instead, she was sent to the winning team for another challenge. She continues to struggle to form alliances, however, with Tina even questioning whether Elliott might be a mole.
Sadly, fans think week 3 may be the end of the line for Elliott. A poll by GoldDerby found that about 30% of viewers think she's the first queen that should go home.
