Who Is RuPaul's Drag Race's A'keria C. Davenport?
James Rogers
Dallas-born A'keria C. Davenport is 33, and appeared for the first time on "RuPaul's Drag Race" in 2018 (via BuzzLearn). According to Fandom, her full stage name is A'keria Chanel Davenport, but goes by Greg D'Wayne when not performing. Davenport's drag career got a major push through her reality television appearances, but she was working on her craft much before then. As early as 2011, the performer competed in countless pageants, scoring Top 12's at Miss Unity of America Newcomer 2011, Miss Wessland Newcomer 2012, Miss Diamond of the South Newcomer 2012, and more (via Our Community Roots). Winning the show-stopping titles Miss International Vogue 2017 and Miss Black Universe 2017, Davenport was prized for fame — and the "RuPaul" team noticed.
Once Davenport got her opportunity to star on "Drag Race" Season 11, legendary quotes were born like, "Fit, fashion, mug, and body," and "Oh yes, it's me: Miss A'keria D-A-V-E-N-P-O-R, and as you can see, I'm the motherf***ing T" (via Fandom). Nowadays, riding on her time on "Drag Race," Davenport can be found making iconic Cameos, and being as real as they come on Twitter.
Bringing the glam-factor to "Drag Race," we can't wait to see Davenport on "All Stars" — we know it's bound to have all the drama (and the bawdy!).
