Sanjina DaBish Queen was eliminated from Season 5 of "Canada's Drag Race" after losing a lip sync battle against Uma Gahd. Despite winning a mini challenge, she struggled with the design challenge, feeling her sewing skills were not strong enough. Sanjina revealed that her drag costs around $25,000, mostly funded through sponsorships. She discussed the financial challenges of being a drag artist and the importance of representation, sharing her experiences with body dysmorphia and her relationship with her mother. Looking ahead, Sanjina plans to tour with a one-woman show titled "Becoming Sanjina," based on her life. She expressed interest in returning to the competition and collaborating with fellow contestants like Vanessa Vanjie Mateo or Kandy Muse.
