Kylie Sonique Love[1] (born May 2, 1983), formerly known as Sonique, is an American entertainer, singer, dancer, model and reality television personality. She rose to prominence as a contestant on the second season of RuPaul's Drag Race in 2009, and achieved further popularity by winning the sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars eleven years later in 2021.[2] Love was the first person to ever come out as transgender on any reality TV show. Upon winning All Stars 6, Love became the second trans woman to win an installment of the Drag Race franchise, and was the first to win an American series. Additionally, in 2020, she co-hosted Translation Season 1, the first talk show on a major network hosted by an all-trans cast.[3] Her first single, "Santa, Please Come Home", was released in 2018.[4]
Early life
[edit]Kylie Sonique Love was born on May 2, 1983, in Albany, Georgia.[5][6] She came out as transgender to her mother at 15 and later was sent to military school Fort Stewart[7] to become "more masculine". She received a GED at the Albany Technical College.[5] Her "drag mother" is retired Atlanta performer The Goddess Raven, a national pageant titleholder.[8]

[edit]Love was announced to be one of twelve contestants for the second season of RuPaul's Drag Race on February 1, 2010.[9] She was placed in the bottom two in episode four and was eliminated after losing a lip sync to "Two of Hearts" by Stacey Q against Morgan McMichaels.[10] She later revealed that she is a transgender woman during the reunion episode of that season.[11][12] In 2015, Love was one of the 30 performers that appeared as a backup dancer for Miley Cyrus's Video Music Awards performance.[13]
In June 2018, Love was a backup dancer with McMichaels and Farrah Moan for Christina Aguilera at Los Angeles Pride.[14] She subsequently appeared in the RuPaul's Drag Race Holi-slay Spectacular with seven other Drag Race alumni on December 7, 2018.[15][16] She also appeared as a guest for the first challenge in the premiere episode of season eleven of Drag Race.[17] Love appeared in a music video for Lizzo's song "Juice", which was released on April 17, 2019.[18]
In 2020, Love co-hosted Translation on Out TV, the first talk show on a major network to be hosted by an all-trans cast.[19] Love was announced as one of thirteen contestants competing on the sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars on May 26, 2021, where she competed under the name Kylie Sonique Love, after previously competing under the mononym Sonique.[20][21] On September 2, she was announced as the winner, becoming the first transgender winner in a U.S. version of the show.[22]
Music
[edit]In 2004 at age 19, Love auditioned for American Idol for its third season. She was with Jennifer Hudson in the Atlanta auditions. She sang Crazy in Love by Beyonce and Lady Marmalade, where she gave judge Simon Cowell a lap dance. She also became friends with judge Paula Abdul.[23] Kylie contributed to Tammie Brown's 2018 EP A Little Bit of Tammie.[24] She released her first single, "Santa, Please Come Home", the same day as the premiere of the Holi-slay Spectacular.[25] She released her second single, "Hey Hater", on April 24, 2019.[26]
