The Vixen height - How tall is The Vixen?

The Vixen is the stage name of Anthony Taylor, an American drag performer, best known for competing on the tenth season of RuPaul's Drag Race and placing seventh. Her appearance on the show was notable for raising a conversation around racial dynamics both among her fellow drag queens and in the show’s fandom. New York magazine named The Vixen one of the top 100 Most Powerful Drag Queens in America in June 2019.

The Vixen was announced as one of fourteen contestants for season ten of RuPaul's Drag Race on February 22, 2018. She won the episode two main challenge. In the third episode, she engaged in a verbal back-and-forth with fellow contestant Aquaria, which left Aquaria crying and The Vixen noting that the exchange “created the narrative [of] an angry black woman who has scared off the little white girl". Although Aquaria eventually conceded the point and later came to her defense, the Vixen received online death threats from Drag Race fans afterwards. She faced more backlash after quarreling with competitor Eureka O'Hara in multiple episodes, most notably in episode 4 of Untucked. She was eliminated in seventh place after losing a lip sync to "Groove Is in the Heart" against Asia O'Hara. During the final reunion episode, she walked offstage after feeling cornered by moderator RuPaul who kept pressing her to revisit past confrontations with Aquaria and Eureka. Season six alum Courtney Act later criticized RuPaul for a lack of compassion during the exchange.

Outside of Drag Race, The Vixen had a booth covered with the Black Girl Magic logo for the first annual Wakandacon in August 2018.

She became a sponsor for Grindr's "Kindr" public service announcement in September 2018, in an effort to stop racial discrimination in the app.

Before her stint on Drag Race, The Vixen was a featured guest on Couleé's 2017 song "Cocky." She released her first solo single, "Room pt. 1," in March 2018. She released "Room pt. 2" on September 28, 2018, with Couleé featured on the track. The Vixen was featured with other Chicago drag queens on the song "Drag" by Dorian Electra. On October 17, 2018, she released the song "Demons, Witches & Bitches" with DJ Shilow and Aja. The Vixen's single "Tea Party" was released on December 11, 2018.

In November 2016, Taylor co-founded "Black Girl Magic", a drag show consisting of only African-American queens. Drag Race alumni Dida Ritz and Shea Couleé are part of this show. Her fellow season ten contestants Asia O'Hara, Monét X Change and Monique Heart were added to the line-up of the "Black Girl Magic" cast in June 2018.

Taylor started doing drag at a local bar called the Jeffery Pub in April 2013. His drag mother is Savannah Westbrooke. The drag name "The Vixen" comes from his love of 1920s vintage wear, and the word "vixen" comes in those searches.
