Kendall Gender is a Canadian drag sensation, performer, host, model, and LGBTQIA2S+ activist who has been captivating audiences from coast to coast since 2014. With grassroots in Vancouver, she has become one of the country’s most recognized drag artists, celebrated for her high-energy performances, activism, and groundbreaking career milestones.

Kendall rose to prominence as a Top 3 finalist on Canada’s Drag Race Season 2 and later returned to television as a competitor on Canada vs. The World. Her career has since included ambassador roles with Annabelle Cosmetics and Fairmont Hotels, as well as being a member of the legendary drag group BRATPACK. She has earned titles such as “Vancouver’s Next Drag Superstar,” served as Empress of Vancouver where she raised over $25,000 for charity, and made history as the first drag artist to perform a halftime show at Rugby 7’s for 50,000 fans. Kendall was also the first drag queen in history to appear solo on the cover of Vancouver Magazine, and the first drag artist ever included in the publication’s prestigious “Power 50” list.

As a biracial artist, Kendall launched VISIBLE as a platform to amplify and support visible minorities, including raising over $9,000 for Black Lives Matter in 2020. Building on this community-driven work, she went on to establish the Kendall Gender Foundation, a registered nonprofit dedicated to raising funds each year to sponsor treatment at recovery centres, supporting individuals in their journey to healing.

Kendall has also made her mark in the acting world. In 2022, she made her film debut in the lead role of Stay, which premiered at both national and international festivals in 2023. She went on to star in The Bearded Girl (2023) and appeared as “Hot Canary” on FOX TV’s Alert. Looking ahead, Kendall will star in the 2026 feature film The Way You Dance, further cementing her place as a dynamic multi-disciplinary performer.

In 2024, Kendall embarked on her first self-produced national tour, The Kenaissance — an hour-long drag concert experience inspired by Beyoncé’s iconic Renaissance tour. The show combined music, dance, and theatrical storytelling, taking audiences across Canada on a journey that was equal parts empowerment, spectacle, and pure drag excellence.

Always dressed to the nines and known for her explosive charisma, Kendall continues to be a powerhouse entertainer and advocate. With new projects on the horizon, her star shows no signs of slowing down.
