Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person BOA (an abbreviation for Bitch on Arrival) is the stage name of Ryan Boa[1] (born May 9, 1995), a drag performer most known for competing on season 1 of Canada's Drag Race.[2]
Early life

Career
BOA worked as a drag queen for six years before competing on season 1 of Canada's Drag Race,[5] where he placed seventh.[6]
In May 2015, BOA was physically attacked after a show by a man he had brought home to hang out with following a performance, after the attacker pressured BOA to have sex and BOA declined.[7] The attacker broke BOA's nose, and stole his wallet, laptop and cellphone.[7] He was arrested two weeks later in Vancouver, British Columbia, following another unrelated crime, and was identified as BOA's attacker;[8] in September 2016 he pled guilty to the robbery and a breach of probation charge from prior crimes, although the physical assault charge was dropped.[9]
BOA has since continued to speak out about the issue of violence in the LGBTQ+ community,[10] including speaking about the incident in a Canada's Drag Race episode.[11]
