Shangela Laquifa Wadley was brought up by a single mother, who worked in the US Army. While in high school, he firstly was a male cheerleader, and he later started dressing as a drag queen for some creative school projects.

His professional career really began in 2009, when he made his drag debut appearance under the stage name at a charity event in Los Angeles, California. In the following year, he won the title at the first California Entertainer of the Year pageant. During his performing as a dancer in Los Angeles, he was spotted and offered an appearance as a competitor in the second season of the reality TV competition series “RuPaul’s Drag Race”; however, he was eliminated in the first episode.
