The Swedish drag superstar will host season 1 of Drag Race Sweden when it debuts on WOW Presents Plus and SVT in Fux’s native region. The 43-year-old drag artist was born in Sweden but grew up in Austria, later moving back to Stockholm in 1998 to work in the city’s evolving club scene. He eventually won the city’s Miss Pride title and began touring with the drag collective Cunigunda. Since 2006, he has steadily worked as an actor among the Stockholm City Theatre’s ensemble, having performed in Orlando, Lay Down Your Arms, and his own gothic drag musical A Near-Death Experience.

In addition to his stage work, Fux also founded the Dragcirkus open stage show for drag artists, and co-founded the Dragons and Drag Queens book project. He’s also the host of Sweden’s biggest drag podcast, Drottningmötet, which translates to Meet the Queen in English.

“I’m incredibly delighted and honored by the task to host Drag Race Sweden! Not many countries in the world have had such a vibrant and diverse drag culture as Sweden and finally we’ll get to display it to the whole world,” Fux said. “I look forward to seeing the queens’ craftsmanship and performance as they offer the television audience extra everything and compete for a worthy title. It will be a unique blend of competition, love, show and glitter.”
