Although I was unable to book Sapphira Crystal, her team went above and beyond to help me find another drag performer that perfectly matched what I needed for my event. I cannot thank her team enough!

Please, please, please hire Sapphira. I wish I have already started recommending her to all my friends. She's talented, funny, intelligent, and just a fun time. Our event was a tough crowd, and she had a bunch of tech bros chanting "tip your queen" within minutes. DO NO MISS OUT ON THE OPPORTUNITY TO HIRE HER!!!

May 30, 2022Increible and accommodating performer
Saphira was amazing, I hired her for a small bachelors/bachelorette party. She worked with me planning little tailored elements of the show. Was super engaging, energetic and captivating during her performance. Everyone at the party was mesmerized. I couldn't recommend her enough. She's worth every cent and more!

If you’ve read this far on Saphirra’s page & still aren’t sure whether or not to pull the trigger, JUST DO IT!! Best addition to a party, hands-down. I asked for a bit of lip singing, a bit of live & a “competition” of sorts. All was delivered & we even got a bonus opera performance from the amazing balcony our house had. 10/10 would recommend. Communication was great, flexibility was great & style/flare is second to no one.
Sapphira, please come back & hang w us again! (And sorry we made you sweat outside.)
