Career
Beth at RuPaul's DragCon LA in 2022

Beth competed on season 2 of Canada's Drag Race. She was the first contestant eliminated, after losing a lip sync against to "Maneater" by Nelly Fertado.[3] Michael Cook of Instinct wrote, "While her time on Season 2 ... might have been brief, the impression that Beth left on the competition and her fellow competitors was definitely memorable. With a passion for indigenous two-spirit people and a fresh post-pandemic perspective, Beth's post-Canada's Drag Race career is poised for greatness."[4]

Personal life

Beth is originally from Nelson and lives in Vancouver.[2][5] She has three brothers, including a twin. She uses the pronouns she/her in drag and he/she/they out of drag.[6]
