Get the Shankela mug.Shangela appeared in season 2, 3 and All Stars 3 of RuPaul's Drag Race. She was robbed of the crown because the other queens thought this was RuPaul's Charity Race and picked the queen who 'needs' it the most. You schouldn't send hate to them tho. She also has one of the most iconic speeches in drag race herstory: "I don't have a sugar daddy, sweetheart. Everything that I've had, I've worked for, and I worked for to get and I've built myself. So you need to know that 100%. I don't have a sugar daddy, I've never had a sugar daddy. If I wanted a sugar daddy, yes, I probably can go out and get one, because I AM WHAT? SICKENING. You could never have a sugar daddy because you are NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL. Baby, everything I've had I worked for, and I've gotten myself. I built myself from the ground up, FUCKING BITCH!"

Get the Shangela mug.A name for a wonderful, kind, caring and thoughtful woman! She is very hard to resist, humble and funny. She is so smart, she can be intimidating to boys but a man can handle it! She’s adventurous, goes with the flow and very outgoing. She has a hard time accepting compliments but likes to hear them all the same. You could easily introduce her to family & she would get on with everyone. She’s worth waiting for!
Shaneela is amazing!
