SHANGELA in… COUNTRY FRIED FISH! is a new night of music and stories from one of the most hilarious and recognizable names from RuPaul's Drag Race herstory: SHANGELA LAQUIFA WADLEY. With a creative mix of stand up comedy, original songs and the electrifying stage performance that Shangela has become known for, this new show promises to be loud, country and out of control.
As a multi-faceted entertainer, D.J. Pierce (Shangela Laquifa Wadley) goes beyond his genre's classic nightclub performances by stretching his reach to the Hollywood scene both in and out of drag. He has guest starred on every major television network on shows that include: "Bones" (FOX), "Bold And The Beautiful" (CBS), "The Mentalist" (CBS), “2 Broke Girls” (CBS), "Glee" (FOX), "Community" (NBC), and "Detroit 187" (ABC). His cable television credits include Lifetime's "Dance Moms", WE Television's “LA Hair”, and E! Network's “The Soup” and "Hello Ross!" He recently debuted alongside veteran actress Jenifer Lewis in an online scripted series called “Jenifer Lewis and Shangela”, launched a new stand up comedy DVD called “Laquifa is Halleloosin' It!” and has released two songs which were both featured on Lifetime's "Dance Moms." His most well-known credit though is being the only contestant on Rupaul's Drag Race history to compete in two seasons (2 and 3). For more info on D.J. “Shangela” Pierce, visit www.shangela.com.
