Why Nymphia Wind Winning RuPaul's Drag Race (Season 16) Matters to Taiwan

Nymphia Wind, the first Taiwanese drag queen to compete on Ru Paul's Drag Race just won season 16! She did it by turning out one of the most jaw dropping, gag worthy lip syncs in Drag Race herstory! Nymphia Wind beat Sapphira Cristal that many drag race fans thought was a sure thing to win the crown. But Nymphia's bubble tea inspired reveal and amazing lip sync skills sealed the deal and mama Ru announced Nymphia Wind as the winner of Ru Paul's Drag Race in the grand finale of the show! For Taiwan and Taiwanese people Nymphia Wind taking the crown on the biggest stage in drag is so significant not just for fans of drag but sociopolitically (don't worry there isn't much politics talk in this, just a bit). The president of Taiwan con-drag-ulated Nymphia! Nymphia Wind is ushering in a new era of drag queen diplomacy and I talk all about how she was able snatch an iconic win and what her winning means for lovers of Taiwan.
