When Sha Sha De Nile finally reveals herself, Thorgy is blown away! “You are beautiful in every way,” she tells Sha Sha. Now for Aisha’s drag name, which is Sha Sha De Nile, complete with a theatrical hand motion on the “De Nile”. Then it’s off to makeup with Blue who compliments the sparkly jumpsuit with glossy lips and glittery gold eyeshadow that makes Aisha feel like she’s starring in The Lion King. Stylist Elle LC has Aisha covered with a black, shimmering jumpsuit that shines like a star-studded night sky. Since embracing drag, Aisha is all in on being transformed by Thorgy, though she admits she’s “terrified but excited all at the same time.” Her only requirement is to wear a pantsuit, not unlike the one Thorgy is rocking. Thorgy adds, “It’s all about feeling good about myself, but also about empowering women of any gender.” Now, Aisha has a newfound appreciation for drag and a deep respect for the work that drag performers do.

Aisha admits that she used to think of drag as “making fun of women” and “disrespectful,” but after “hearing a queen speak from the perspective of how they found drag and how it’s been really transformative,” she was inspired to embrace drag culture. On this episode of Dragged, host Thorgy Thor ( helps contestant Aisha embrace drag after having feelings of resistance towards the industry.
