A’keria Davenport Facts

  1. Her drag name is a pun on the phrase “I carry a Chanel” but was completely unintentional.
  2. She was raised in a family where if a situation is going on, the best way to handle is to address it. However, if it doesn’t concern her, A’keria is simply observant and doesn’t get involved.
  3. She won the title of Miss Black Universe in the 2017-2018 season.

  11. Vanessa Vanjie Mateo nicknamed her “MacGyver of Drag” because she masterfully created or modified a majority of her outfits worn on the show.
