Drag La Tacones, Kevin Jiménez

For La Tacones, the winner’s sash comes after taking part in the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Carnival for four consecutive years.

With the backing of PhysioÉlite Physiotherapy Clinic and José Halcón Floats, Taco captivated the audience and the jury and took the winner’s sash in a remarkable contest in which he was also awarded the prize for best design on Preselection night.

Kevin Jiménez, the alter ego of Drag La Tacones, was already wearing platform boots in his mother’s womb. Or so he claimed, with a laugh, after becoming the winning Drag Queen in the year the city’s most important festivity celebrates its 50th anniversary.
