Jessica Wild

Jessica Wild (José David Sierra) is a Puerto Rican drag queen, dancer, choreographer, makeup artist and singer from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Jessica Wild was known for her fashion on the runway, her makeup skills, her hair styling, and her sweetness and charm that she brought to the show.

Elimination

Jessica Wild's elimination was one of the most heartfelt and controversial throughout Season 2.

Jessica was eliminated on the seventh episode.

The Main Challenge was to create a book/autobiography about themselves, present the book and the Absolut Berri Acai cocktail in a satellite interview and on the main stage.

First of all, Jessica had frustrations in the photoshoot for the book cover. Jessica was unsure of how to pose for the cover, she didn't know how to portray her essence from the photoshoot into the biography she wrote. The photographers said "She came in defeated. If you come in defeated, then you are defeated." Jessica Wild was critiqued for having faulty timing in the interview, mentioned her book too late and raved a little too much about the Berry Acai cocktail. Absolut's Jeffery Moran said Jessica's Interview was "a little sloppy." Also, Jessica's book cover, "Dreams of a Golden Child" was critiqued to have looked too childish. Santino said "It looks like a cover that a 9 year old girl would buy."

Jessica Wild's english barrier played a small factor in Jessica Wild's status in the bottom two because she was made fun of for saying what appeared to be "Dreams of a Golden Shower" when it was really stated as "Dreams of a Golden Child."

So, Jessica Wild fell into the bottom two alongside her good friend and fellow contestant, Tatianna. Jessica's dance style was too over the top for the song that was chosen, "He's the Greatest Dancer". So Tatianna got to stay another week, while Jessica sashayed away.

Drag Name Origin

She wanted a name that is sexy and easy to remember. Jessica is the name of one of her best friends in high school and she thinks is a sexy name. Wild is used to describe her character’s personality and performance. She said, “I am a shy guy and I am wild on stage.”
