Hall, a leading player in the local drag scene for nearly a decade, won season 12 of VH1’s hit reality competition Friday, May 29, 2020.

“I know how it is to grind so hard and so many times be told no,” Hall told RuPaul on Friday’s finale.

Evidently RuPaul agreed, giving Hall the crown Friday following a triumphant season that included three competition wins and ending up in the bottom two only once, and praise from guest judges like Chaka Khan, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jeff Goldblum.

Talking to RuPaul on Friday’s finale, Hall shared some more insight into that Milwaukee upbringing.

As the winner of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Friday, Hall won a year supply of Anastasia Beverly Hills Cosmetics and a $100,000 cash prize

And Friday she became the second Milwaukee drag scene star to win “RuPaul’s Drag Race.”
