Career

[edit]

Kita and Anita Wigl'it were both judges on the New Zealand drag competition show House of Drag from 2018 to 2020, where they became known as the duo Kita and Anita.[2][3] The two queens started a monthly event called Drag Wars for local New Zealand drag artists to perform and they co-own the Caluzzi Cabaret and Phoenix Venue in Auckland.[2]

In March 2021, Kita and Anita were announced as competitors on the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under.[2] Kita won the makeover challenge in episode 6, which involved giving a rugby player a makeover,[4] and landed in the bottom two in episode 7, sending home Elektra Shock.[5] On 19 June 2021, Kita Mean was announced by RuPaul as the first winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under.[6][7]

In December 2021, she starred in Beauty and the Beast, a pantomime show, at the Isaac Theatre Royal.[8]
