11. Shangela Laquifa Wadley

It's hard to look at the name of Shangela Laquifa Wadley without thinking about the shocking and controversial ending to the third season of 'All Stars.' Wadley was the clear winner of almost all of the challenges, and her victory was seen as inevitable in the eyes of most viewers, but the crown was wrested away from her and handed to Trixie Mattel in a decision which sent Twitter into meltdown! She hasn't let it knock her confidence though; she's close to the top of the list when television and film producers require a drag queen, racking up plenty of appearances.

To give a full list of her work would take up too much space here, but if you have a sharp eye you might have seen her turn up in 'Glee,' and 'X-Files' to name just two. The former D.J. Pierce was living a typically conservative life in Paris, Texas until she was asked to drag up for an English class project. She suddenly felt comfortable in her skin for the first time in her life, and she never looked back.
