‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ Runner-Up Sapphira Cristál Feels ‘Very Seen’ After Miss Congeniality Win


'RuPaul's Drag Race' runner up Sapphira Cristal talks about sharing her Miss Congeniality win with Xunami Music, her connection to Beyoncé and more.

But all was not lost — before her showdown with Wind, Cristál made Drag Race history when she and Xunami Muse both won Miss Congeniality, a title bestowed on the queen deemed the kindest by her fellow competitors. It also marks the first time that a finalist has won the prize since season one, when Nina Flowers was crowned as the show’s inaugural Miss Congeniality. Below, Cristál chats with Billboard about her performance on the show, her love for character shoes, her strange connection to Beyoncé and how she hopes to use her platform to promote unabashed self-love.
