Biography

Morales was born in Seville, Andalusia, Spain in 1993. She started doing drag at the age of 20, in 2013, while studying fashion design and moved to Madrid to expand her career and, while there, worked at a makeup store. In 2018, she was revealed as one of the 15 contestants on the second season of Chilean drag competition series The Switch Drag Race, making her the first Spanish contestant in the Drag Race franchise.[1] She placed in the bottom in the first episode and lost a duel against Marie Laveau, making her the first elimination of the season.

In 2023, she was announced as one of the 13 contestants on the third season of Drag Race España. After being placed in the bottom in the fifth episode, she eliminated The Macarena in a lip-sync battle to Mónica Naranjo's "Desátame". Pakita was eventually eliminated in the seventh episode, during a double elimination alongside Pink Chadora.
