Perspective
Le Filip started doing drag at Zagreb Pride in 2012 when she was 18 years old.[2] She was an associate member of House of Flamingo, a Croatian queer and drag performance arts ensemble from Zagreb.[5] In France, she was a member of Haus of Morue. Le Filip describes herself as a comedy queen and cites feminine personalities of Pamela Anderson, Anne Roumanoff, Élie Semoun, Florence Foresti and Jacques Tati as her inspirations.[6]
On 24 April 2024, Le Filip was announced as one of ten contestants of the third season of Drag Race France, becoming the first contestant in the Drag Race frachise to be of a Croatian origin.[7] During her time on the season, Le Filip placed in the Top 2 on the fourth episode, in a Rusical dedicated to Céline Dion, ultimately losing a lipsync to Leona Winter.[8] Le Filip was one of the four finalists of the season, along with Leona Winter, Lula Strega and Ruby on the Nail. At the finale, Le Filip performed an original song titled "Hrvatica Baby!", won the final lipsync against Ruby on the Nail, and was ultimately crowned the winner of the season receiving the title of France's Next Drag Superstar.[9] Le Filip is thus the second winner in the Drag Race franchise to never win a Maxi challenge, following Drag Race Italia's Elecktra Bionic.
