Hornella Góngora is the stage name of Javier Sevillano Jiménez, a Spanish drag performer known for competing on the third season of Drag Race España.[1]
Career
The name Honrnella Góngora comes from a combination of the name of her old pet, Hornella, and Calle Góngora, the name of the street she used to live on. She began doing drag in 2009 and was a part of the drag show Que trabaje Rita.[2]
Some of her key artistic and professional inspirations are Mina Mazzini, Marlene Dietrich, and Rita Hayworth, as well as films by Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar.[3]
In October 2016, she released her second song, "Amor irracional" (Irational Love).[4]
In 2021, she had a small role in the Atresmedia movie Una Navidad con Samantha Hudson (Christmas with Samantha Hudson), in which she also performed the song "Vuelve a Casa Vuelve" (Come Home, Come Back) with fellow drag artists Kika Lorace, La Prohibida, and Gad Yola.[5]
In 2023, Hornella joined the third season of reality television show Drag Race España, which premiered on April 16, 2023. In the fourth episode, for the "My Worst Self" runway, she presented a radical look that represented the chapter of her life in which she drew into herself after being diagnosed with HIV to spread a message of acceptance for people who are HIV-positive.[6] Hornella became one of the season's four finalists.[7]
In May of the same year, she gave the opening speech at the LGBT pride event Festival LGTBI+ + DIVERSA in Elche, along with drag queen Venedita Von Däsh.[8]
