Career

Mirage competed on season 16 of RuPaul's Drag Race. She performed a "heel clack heavy" lip-sync to an original song called "She's Such a Bitch"[4] for the talent show episode.[5] The song referenced season 15 contestant Anetra.[6] On the show, Mirage discussed her Apache heritage and performing at Indigenous Pride.[7] She was eliminated in the fourth episode ("RDR Live!"), after placing in the bottom two of a challenge requiring contestants to perform in a Saturday Night Live-style sketch comedy show, and losing a lip-sync against Geneva Karr to "Dark Lady" (1974) by Cher.[8] Mirage was the host of the comedy show,[9] and during Untucked she admitted to not knowing the words to "Dark Lady".[7] She was the second contestant to be eliminated on season 16, placing thirteenth overall.[10]

Sam Damshenas included Mirage in Gay Times' 2024 list of the best fifteen talent show performances on Drag Race.[11] "She's Such a Bitch" was named Number 18 on Rolling Stone's "Top 20 Best Songs by Drag Queens" calling it an "instant classic."[12]
