Jewels Sparkles announced that she's taking a social media hiatus after experiencing the intense discourse surrounding the grand finale of RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 — which ended with the crowning of Onya Nurve as America's Next Drag Superstar and Jewels finishing as runner-up.
The 23-year-old Latina queen from Tampa, FL performed an original song, "Ding," that qualified her to lip sync for the crown at the Drag Race finale. That final lip sync — to "Abracadabra" by Lady Gaga! — had Jewels going toe-to-toe with Onya, who not only came into the finale as a frontrunner with the most maxi challenge wins, but also delivered a groovy performance for her original song "It Do Take Nurve."
