Keiona Revlon

Kevin Kouassi, best known by the stage name Keiona Revlon or mononymously as Keiona, is an Ivorian-French drag queen and ballroom performer best known for winning the second season of Drag Race France. Prior to competing on Drag Race, Keiona competed with the House of Revlon Paris on the third season of Legendary.

Early life Origins and family Kevin Kouassi was born on in Paris' 20th arrondissement.

She is the eldest of a family of nine children, whose parents are separated. Her Ivorian father is a chartered accountant and has lived in the United States, in Maryland. Her family belongs to the Ivorian upper classes close to power who went into exile following the 2002 coup d’état.

Career Her beginnings in drag took place within the Ballroom scene, although she had previously begun participating in balls while presenting in a masculine appearance. She chose this stage name in reference to the first name of her niece, born two years before she began her drag queen career.

Keiona is the Mother of the French chapter of the House of Revlon, which she leads alongside its Founder and Father, Vinii Revlon. She has organized balls since 2016 on the upper floor of the Gaîté-Lyrique with her collective House of Revlon. The house faced elimination during the ninth episode, culminating in a third-place finish.

In 2023, she was revealed as one of the contestants on the second season of Drag Race France competing under the mononym Keiona. After a record-breaking trajectory in which she placed in the top for every competitive episode of the season and won two challenges, Keiona won the season and was crowned France's Next Drag Superstar. She won a crown and scepter valued at €40,000 from Y’Paris, a trip for two to New York City (which includes a stay at a five-star hotel, and tickets to a Broadway Show) courtesy of MisterB&B, a one-year supply of MAC Cosmetics, and an appearance on the cover of ELLE France Magazine.

In 2024, she took part in Danse avec les stars with Maxime Dereymez. She reached the semi-finals of the competition, finishing in fourth place.
