Career

Zimmer began performing in drag in 2006 following a stint at a theme park which helped her create the role of Pupi Poisson.[3][1] In 2008 Poisson began to perform with other drag queens, and television appearances followed in 2010.[4] She has competed on Got Talent España as well as Drag Race España.[5][6][7] In an interview with one of the judges on the show, Javier Calvo, he called her "very talented," and noted that she had been "working for a while."[8]

From July to December 2021, Poisson was part of the show Gran Hotel de las Reinas, which toured Spain as the official tour of Drag Race España.[9][10]

In 2022, Pupi began co-hosting Reinas al Rescate alongside Drag Race España host Supremme de Luxe and fellow contestants Estrella Xtravaganza and Sharonne. In the series, the four drag queens travel across Spain to recruit small-town residents to participate in one-night-only drag shows.[11]

Personal life

Zimmer lives in Madrid.[5][12] He is gay, noting in a July 2021 interview that he hid it because he believed it would not be "well received" by his mother.[13]
