Who is Nina West?

Andrew Levitt, who goes by the stage name Nina West, is a drag queen, activist, actor and singer-songwriter. Before making it onto season 11, Nina had auditioned 9 times before being selected. She did exceedingly well on her season and was known for her quick wit and creativity. Her elimination came as a shock to everyone, seeing that during her run on the show, she gained a massive following. Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Scott Hoying voiced their support toward the queen during her elimination. Nina also mentioned that Rihanna privately messaged her post her elimination.

The queen has done extensive philanthropy work over the years

Levitt is known for his philanthropy work over the years - he even spoke about the same during the show. He advocates for the LGBTQIA community and often talks about HIV/AIDS testing and safe sex, marriage equality, and trans rights. He is also behind the Nina West Foundation, which supports charities such as Success Columbus, Equitas Health which helps with HIV/AIDS treatment, and Kaleidoscope Youth Center, the largest LGBTQIA youth center in Ohio. As per the foundation's Website, "The charity performance he does at the end of each big show averages about $1,500 - an incredible testament to his passion, and the generosity of his audience."

Her net worth is...

Nina has always been known for her well-thought-out and highly creative looks. So it comes as no surprise that her stunning 'living gown' in which she had performers dress up as parts of her dress was a stroke of creative genius. It went on to inspire Sia's 2016 Coachella look, which adapted the same concept. The multi-talented queen has been a part of film campaigns such as Trolls World Tour and 'Maleficent: Mistress of Evil' and has also worked with a range of brands. So it comes as no surprise that her net worth is estimated to be somewhere between $1 to $5 million, as reported by Celebs Age Wiki.
