The so-called "world's most glamorous trash queen" has been resurfacing on social media, but out of drag!
Longtime fans of RuPaul's Drag Race will remember Magnolia Crawford as a queen eliminated in the second double premiere episode of season 6. At the reunion special, Magnolia told RuPaul that she hadn't watched the rest of the season, adding that she only went on the show to get more "exposure" and "publicity."
Out-of-drag Magnolia goes by Reynolds Engelhart and has a career in comedy. On Monday, April 22, @Drag_Crave shared new pictures that have been posted by Engelhart as of late. While he maintains a private Instagram account (@magnoliaisme), he still has over 18,000 followers on it.
It certainly seems like Engelhart is living an exciting and prosperous life!

Magnolia was introduced in second episode of season 6 (the series' first-ever "double premiere") and appeared alongside costars like Bianca Del Rio, Courtney Act, Darienne Lake, Joslyn Fox, Milk, and Trinity K. Bonet. Unfortunately, Magnolia did not do well in that sewing challenge using unconventional materials, which led to her elimination.
During the competition, Magnolia's fiercely-countered nose became a joke among queens and a criticism from the judges. Then, at the reunion, Magnolia brought a nonchalant attitude that made it seem like she didn't care about the show and/or only wanted to get a little famous. That was probably not exactly what she wanted to say, but it is what was shown on TV.
Magnolia is just another example of drag entertainers who quit drag, but these pictures of Engelhart were certainly a treat for Drag Race fans to see!
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 9 premieres Friday, May 17 on Paramount+.
