Pandora Boxx is not to be confused with Pandora Nox

Pandora Olivia Boxx, or just simply known as Pandora Boxx on the show, is an American drag queen and comedian from Rochester, New York, best known for being a contestant on the second season of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Her popularity during season two meant that she would return on the first-ever rendition of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars, where she was partnered with Season 3 contestant, Mimi Imfurst. They placed 11th/12th, finishing last place.

She would later return to compete on All Stars 6, where she placed 6th.

  • Pandora released a hit single called "Cooter!", available on iTunes and Amazon.[5]
  • She also released a very popular song called "Nice Car, Shame About Your Penis!".[6]
  • She wrote and produced her own play called "Lipstick Massacre" in Rochester which played at the Multi-use Community Cultural Center, and the Geva Theatre.[7]
  • Pandora wrote, directed, produced and appeared in Mrs. Kasha Davis: The Life of an International Housewife Celebrity starring fellow drag performer from Rochester's Tilt nightclub, Mrs. Kasha Davis.[8]
  • Pandora became engaged to her husband on Christmas Day in 2010.[9]
  • She was a professor on Drag U from Seasons 1-3, with fellow Season 2 contestants Jujubee, Raven, Morgan McMichaels and Tyra Sanchez.[10]
  • Pandora hosted a segment called "Drag Center Recap" which recapped episodes of Season 5.[11]
  • Being the first eliminated contestants of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars, Pandora and Mimi Imfurst join the group of the Porkchop Queens, the contestants who are the first to be eliminated in an entire franchise.
  • She is one of the seven queens to compete on more than one season, but only lip-sync once, the other six being Milk, Thorgy Thor, Nina Flowers, Ongina, Blair St. Clair and Mariah Paris Balenciaga.
  • She, along with Sahara Davenport, is one of the first two Drag Race queens to come from New York.

  • Pandora was the first queen in the show to say an entrance quote.[12]

  • Pandora was cast on All Stars 1 by a fan vote, however after Sharon Needles won Season 4 she'd risen the number one spot in the vote. Contrary to popular belief Pandora had already been cast at this point and did not take Sharon's spot, though Sharon had also chosen not to participate because she had just won her season.[12]
  • Pandora is present in the lineup of All Stars 1 during the short scene in the opening credits where the queens gesture to their portraits, despite her and Mimi Imfurst having been already eliminated when the segment was filmed.

  • Ongina helped Pandora create most of her looks for All Stars 6 and notably hand-painted Pandora's dress and cape for her pop art look, and created numerous headpieces.[14]
