There’s a new man in Kameron Michaels’ life!
On Friday, October 20, the Drag Race season 10 finalist came back to social media with a new video shared on TikTok and Instagram. In the since-deleted video, out-of-drag Michaels explained that he’s been diagnosed with ADHD and wants to “catch up” with his fans on social media.
Well, it seems like Michaels is following through with the catching-up part! On Thursday, October 26, the Drag Race star shared an Instagram story soft-launching a new boyfriend in his life. “Happy anniversary,” the post read, suggesting that they’ve been together for quite some time while Michaels was on a break from social media.
Alas, the identity of this new boyfriend is still undisclosed, with Michaels using an orange heart emoji to cover that person’s face. It’s also worth mentioning that the couple is dressed pretty much exactly the same: long-sleeve plaid shirts, black jeans, and the same Nike shoes.

As a drag performer, Michaels made her reality TV debut on season 10 of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Over the course of the competition, she was criticized by the judges for not “opening up” when it comes to her personality.
Though Michaels admitted on Drag Race that she can be a little guarded at times, that didn’t stop her from giving us incredible lip syncs throughout the season, winning the Rusical challenge, and making it to the grand finale. She then lip synced for the crown against Aquaria and Eureka, finishing the competition as a runner-up.
In recent years, Kameron performed as a cast member on the RuPaul’s Drag Race Live! residency in Las Vegas. She also appeared as a Lip Sync Assassin on All Stars 6, going up against Ra’Jah O’Hara and winning that lip sync to Charli XCX’s “Boom Clap.”
Congratulations to Michaels and this mystery new boyfriend for their anniversary!
