Colorado celebrated the fourth annual Drag, Initiatives, and Variety Awards with a packed house at X Bar!
Mario Wanna is a biracial androgynous drag king based in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Mario started drag in 2021 at age thirty, proving that it is never too late to pursue something that brings you joy. You can spot Mario sporting his green beard and hair as a nod to his name, although on occasion other colors make an appearance.
Mario is inspired by many kings he has seen on social media, as well as artists and singers who also enjoy blurring the lines between feminine and masculine, including River Glass, Axel Andrews, Harry Styles, Sam Smith and Janelle Monae. Mario hopes to inspire those around him to feel free to be their most authentic and unapologetically unique selves! My mother is the one and only Porsha Demarco Douglas, and my father is the burlesque legend Alex Valdez.
