Nina West to host Spring Affair 2025
We are thrilled to announce that Nina West will be the special guest star at Spring Affair 2025: The Color Ball. Nina West is an American drag queen, actor, singer, songwriter, author, and LGBTQ+ activist played by Andrew Levitt. She rose to national prominence in 2019 with her appearance on Season 11 of VH1’s Emmy-winning show RuPaul’s Drag Race, where she placed sixth and won Miss Congeniality. In 2021, she returned to the show as a guest and was anointed “America’s Sweetheart” by RuPaul herself. In 2020, Nina released a charity partnership with country music legend Dolly Parton — the “Dolly X Nina: Kindness is Queen” collection, with all proceeds going to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library and The Nina West Foundation to benefit LGBTQ+ youth and literacy. Nina headlined the 20th anniversary national tour of Hairspray in the lead role of Edna Turnblad, for which she received rave reviews. In 2022, Nina made her big screen debut as legendary queen Divine in the award-winning Weird: The Al Yankovic Story starring Daniel Radcliffe. We are so thrilled to have Nina join us for Spring Affair!
