Sonja appeared on a special episode of Drag Race All Stars 2 for a makeover challenge. She is of Puerto Rican and Cuban ancestry.Roxxxy is a member of the Haus of Andrews, founded by 1986 Miss Continental winner Tandi Andrews (1964-1995). Roxxxy's drag mother was Erica Andrews (1969-2013), Tandi's daughter. She began her drag career in Orlando at Parliament and Pulse nightclubs and later began competing in the drag pageantry system. She won Miss Continental Plus in 2010.
In November 2012, Logo announced that Feliciano was among 14 drag queens who would be competing on the fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race. As Roxxxy Andrews, Feliciano won the first main challenge of the season in "RuPaullywood or Bust" and the make-over challenge in "Super Troopers"
In the episode "RuPaul Roast" Roxxxy lip-synced for her life against Alyssa Edwards to Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair". In the lip-sync, Roxxxy pulled off her wig to reveal another wig underneath; arguably one of the most memorable lip-sync for your life moments in Drag Race history. RuPaul decided it was to be a non-elimination. RuPaul later declared that it was the best lip-sync battle ever.
Throughout her time on the show, she expressed her annoyance at how "comedy queens" who were "unpolished" were winning challenges and not going home; an opinion she often expressed toward Jinkx Monsoon which resulted in backlash from viewers.
In May 2013, during the reunion Jinkx Monsoon was crowned "America's Next Drag Superstar" while Roxxxy and Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 were declared runner-ups.
In June 2016, it was announced that Roxxxy Andrews would return to Rupaul's Drag Race for the second season of All Stars. During the first episode, All Star Talent Show Extravaganza, she became the first contestant in the show's history to win the first challenge twice on both of her seasons. She also became the first contestant in the show's history to survive being in the bottom five times. She made it to the season's finale where she placed fourth.
Pulse
Andrews started drag at Pulse, the gay nightclub where the deadliest shooting in America took place on Sunday, June 12, with fellow drag queen and All-Star, Detox.
On Wednesday, June 15, Andrews shared to instagram her new tattoo that she got in honor of the 49 lives lost and 53 wounded in the Orlando shooting. The tattoo is of Pulse nightclub’s logo with a red heartbeat line drawn through the middle.
At the reunion of Rupaul's Drag Race: All Stars she opened up about her connection to Pulse.
