In other news, Marina Summers was recently revealed as the lone and first Filipino contender for season two of Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK Versus The World. In the video of her reveal, she shared, “I think drag in the Philippines is just so glamorous, so upbeat, so vibrant. I am just so happy to represent my country, our drag, and our culture…I came here not as one, but as 106 million Filipinos. I’m not sure if that’s correct (laughs).”
