Career
[edit]Bryan Neel was born to Susan Neel[12] and started performing in drag in 2013. The name Ariel Versace comes from the main character of "The Little Mermaid" and the fashion brand. In 2015, she worked as a makeup artist for the indie movie "Deadly Gamble".
She was announced as one of fifteen queens cast on RuPaul's Drag Race in 2019. She was eliminated in the monster ball challenge in episode five due to infamously slipping and falling in the lip sync for your life.[13][14][15] Shortly after the season ended, she released her first single, "Venomous" on June 4, 2019.[16]
She owns a wig business called Drag by Chariel with her partner Chastity St. Cartier.[17]
