Peppermint is a trailblazing actress, singer, DJ, reality star, and activist who defies limitations. A longtime key figure in queer nightlife, Peppermint’s star rose thanks to her smashing success as the first out trans contestant to be cast on Rupaul’s Drag Race where she finished as first runner-up in one of the series’ most-talked-about finales. Soon after, she became the first trans woman to originate a principal role on Broadway in the hit musical Head Over Heels.
