‘Drag Race’ Star Jade Jolie Apologizes For Appearing In Gay Nazi Porn

The latest season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars may have just ended, but the fourth season Dragula is about to officially begin! The horror-centric drag competition just announced its newest roster of contestants and we don’t know about you, but one Dragula competitor really stood out to us!

We’re of course talking about Jade Jolie. Yep, that Jade Jolie. The Jade Jolie that appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race season five, inspired the iconic Coco Montrese “get her, Jade!” meme, and went on to impersonate Taylor Swift in an actual Taylor Swift music video and at the MTV Music Video Awards. That Jade Jolie.

Aside from being known for their drag, Jade is also famous for being one of the first (if not the actual first) Drag Race queens to appear on the show only to have their gay porn past exposed to the public. Before Jade’s season even premiered, news about their porn work under the name “Tristan Everhard” started making headlines with videos and pictures of Tristan’s work being spread around the internet.

While it was revealed that Tristan had filmed with multiple studios and appeared in multiple projects like Man Van, ShowGuys, the perfectly titled film DaVinci Load 2: Electric Twinkaloo, the one gay porn production that really made caught everyone’s attention was a gay Nazi-themed film. Yikes!

The most damning photo from the Nazi film that came out shows a young Tristan Everhard wearing an oversized trench coat performing a Nazi salute alongside two other men that are wearing some extremely cheap-looking military garb. Take a look below:

Years later, Jade is now apologizing for appearing in the Nazi porn production. Hours after their Dragula casting announcement was made, Jade took to their Instagram story to post some white text explaining the situation while taking “full accountability” for their involvement and emphasizing that they “do not support antisemitism, racism, or bigotry in any way.”

“When I was in my younger youth, I was down on my luck financially and did adult film work to survive,” reads the Instagram story. “During one of the shoots I was involved in, I was asked to portray a nazi soldier in a scene. Against my better judgment and with an abusive partner pushing me to say yes, I chose to participate and I have felt shame and regret for that decision every day.”

From what we can tell through some light internet sleuthing, this seems to be the first time Jade has made a public comment about their appearance in the Nazi porno since May 2013. The last comment came in the form of a Twitter reply to Drag Race winner Sharon Needles after they shared our story about the situation. A 2013 Jade tweeted that they were “NOT sorry bout it.”

This tweet is still up and active on Jade’s official Twitter account, but based on Jade’s most recent apology, we’re assuming that this tweet does not accurately reflect any of Jade’s current views and that they actually are in fact “sorry bout it.” (Side note: Jade, if you’re reading this – maybe you should delete this tweet… It’s not cute.)

Jade’s new apology over the offensive Nazi project also seems to be the first time that they have ever publicly expressed any type of regret over their general gay porn past. While it doesn’t appear that they’ve done many interviews discussing the subject, a 2013 conversation with Jade shows the Drag Race star not apologizing for their past or even disparaging the act of sex work. (Aka the exact opposite stance that New Mexico Democrat Roger Montoya took when he ran for office last year and his porn past came to light.)

“You know, as far as that goes, I’m never going to regret anything I had to do,” Jade responded when asked about their porn career. “I had to make life decisions when I was young, to get by, the get where I am now. So I support everyone. You can come from somewhere like that and to be where I am now, so just don’t ever give up on yourself and don’t let anyone get you down.”

We will update this post if any more information about this subject comes out from the Dragula crew or from Jade Jolie. In the meantime, you can head here if you want to watch Jade/Tristan in some (non-Nazi) porn.

  1. The Nazi salute pic.is classic twink. The one in the middle doesn’t even know how to do the salute. Probably the director’s boy.

  2. Someone who refuses to forgive is often much more dangerous and hypocritical than someone who acknowledges a mistake. Refusing to forgive is a malicious and mean attitude.
