Pandora Nox competed on the first season of Drag Race Germany, which began airing on 5 September 2023.[2] She became the first cisgender female drag performer to compete in the German reality series, and the third in the Drag Race franchise, after Victoria Scone and Clover Bish. During her time on the show, she placed in the bottom twice, eliminating Tessa Testicle and Loreley Rivers. With two main challenge wins and a runway win, she was a finalist alongside Metamorkid and Yvonne Nightstand. In the finale episode, she had to lip-sync to Conchita Wurst's "Rise Like a Phoenix" (2014). Pandora Nox won the series, and became the franchise's first AFAB and first lesbian winner.[3][4]
