This ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ Star Is Headed to the ‘Big Brother’ House for Season 28
Jason De Puy, aka Salina EsTitties, thinks the other houseguests are going to be "gagged" by his strategy.
A seasoned RuPaul’s Drag Race star is ready to sashay into the Big Brother house, with the reality show announcing Tuesday (July 7) that Jason De Puy — aka Salina EsTitties — is joining the season 28 cast.
The news comes alongside a larger cast announcement for the upcoming installment of the program, which involves the nonstop surveillance of a group of strangers living together in a remote house as they undergo a series of votes to determine who is eliminated over time. Melody Morris, Barrett Pfeiffer, LaTrice Verrett and more are also part of the next season.
De Puy is most well known for his alter ego Salina, previously competing on season 15 of Drag Race in 2023 before joining the ongoing 11th season of Drag Race All-Stars this year. He has also released a handful of songs under the EsTitties name, including the 2026 single “Pek Pek.” Last year, De Puy was featured on “My Guy” by fellow Big Brother alum/Ariana Grande’s older brother Frankie Grande.
The performer shared a video on Instagram introducing himself to the Big Brother fanbase, exclaiming that he’s “low-key a superfan” of the show.
“I’ve been watching since season 16, so I’ve been around,” De Puy said before giving a preview of what his strategy for the competition will be. “I’m gonna say that I’m a professional drag queen, and I’m going to read the room to see if anyone clocks my tea. If they clock me, I’m just going to be like, ‘Yeah, I was on Drag Race.'”
“The perfect blindside’s gonna get them, and they’re gonna be so gagged, but baby, at that point it’ll be too late,” the San Francisco native added. “Sorry, goodbye.”
The next season of Big Brother will premiere July 9 on CBS.
