A fixture at The George since her debut in 2002, Davina brings with her a legacy of queer excellence and showmanship. From the legendary SaturGays to the unmissable Thirsty Thursdays, her presence has electrified audiences for over two decades. Beyond the glittering lights of The George, Davina’s illustrious career includes representing Ireland at World Gay Pride in Toronto 2014 and captivating crowds at festivals like Electric Picnic and much more.

True to the motto ‘Who will get hired? Who will get fired?’, The Devine Apprentice contestants will be vying for the crown in a display of fierce talent and fabulousness. And who knows, maybe one of them will go on and do unbelievable things in the glittery world of drag.
