Visa is the stage name of Edi David Roque García (born October 24, 1988), a Mexican drag queen known for competing on the first season of Toma mi dinerita and on the third season of Drag Race España.[1]

Career

[edit]

Visa began her drag career performing in various carnivals in Tampico, Madero, and Altamira, often winning prizes for best individual costume.[2]

In 2020, Visa was one of the contestants in the first season of the Mexican drag competition, Toma mi dinerita.[3]

In 2023, Visa joined the third season of reality television competition, Drag Race España, which premiered on April 16.[4] She became the first Mexican drag queen to compete in Spain.[5] In the sixth episode, Visa was up for elimination, which lead to her competing in a lip sync battle against fellow contestant Clover Bish to the song "Dime" by Beth. Ultimately, Clover was declared the winner, and Visa became the season's sixth eliminated queen.[6][7] As a result of this decision, the judges, especially Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, were widely criticized by viewers.[8]
