Shawn Morales (born July 21, 1978) is an American model, [1] actor, and nightlife personality based in Los Angeles, California.
In 2011, while working as a gogo dancer at local gay bars, Shawn auditioned for the RuPaul's Drag Race " Pit Crew" (also known as the Scruff Pit Crew). They are a group of men who appear on each season of Drag Race. [2] The men of the Pit Crew are typically dressed only in their underwear, assisting RuPaul and contestants in various challenges on the reality show. [3] They usually have no dialogue on the show, mainly appearing as "eye candy" for viewers and contestants. Morales became the first non-African-American man to join the Pit Crew, joining in season three. He would also go on to appear in RuPaul's music video for the song " Champion." Morales remained with the show until he was axed before Season 7 began. No reason ever was given for Morales' departure from the show, but after a well-circulated Huffington Post article about Gold's Gym revoking Morales' gym membership [4] due to his body odor, rumors swirled that there may have been a link between the two. Morales reprised his role in Season 10, as well as guest appearances on other RuPaul's Drag Race and their production company, World of Wonder's companion shows. [5]
On November 5, 2020, Morales married his husband Levi Packer in Brownwood, Texas. [6]
