BiographyHera Lilith Hoffer (born September 18, 1987), best known by the stage name Jinkx Monsoon, is an American drag queen, actress, singer and comedienne, originally from the Pacific Northwest, and perhaps best-known for winning the fifth season (2013) of RuPaul's Drag Race. Nine years later, in 2022, she returned as part of an all-winners All Stars season, featuring a mixture of crowned queens from several seasons competing against one another for the title of "Queen of All Queens" and a $200,000 prize. Jinkx placed first here as well, becoming the first two-time winner of the show across its many global franchises. She made her Broadway debut in 2023.

Throughout her drag career, she has been noted for her quick wit and comedic timing, her musical theatre-inspired performances, and for flawlessly executing several celebrity impersonations, including Judy Garland, Edie "Little Edie" Bouvier Beale, and Natasha Lyonne.

She has also pursued a career in music, releasing two studio albums titled The Inevitable Album (2014) and The Ginger Snapped (2018). In film, Monsoon appeared with her collaborative partner BenDeLaCreme in the holiday film The Jinkx and DeLa Holiday Special (2021) which was later released on Hulu. In television, Monsoon appears in the WOW Presents Plus original Sketchy Queens, a series she created alongside Liam Krug, and the BBC / Disney+ series Doctor Who as the villain Maestro.
