An eight-year-old drag queen is taking the scene by storm after discovering the practice at the age of seven.

Montreal mini queen Nemis Quinn Mélançon Golden has been catching the eyes of drag artists across the globe since his alter-ego Lactatia appeared onstage with Ru Paul's Drag Race star Bianca del Rio on her Werq the World drag tour earlier this summer.

In a new video for Elle.com, Nemis reveals that he has been 'wearing my sister's tutus since I was like three or four.'

Growing up: The young boy says he believes he has had his alter-ego, Lactatia 'inside of me since I was born'

'I think I've had Lactatia inside of me since I was born,' he adds. 'And that's why I love that song Born This Way.'

Drag, Nemis says, 'makes me feel very happy, like I am accepted.'

Nemis' mother Jessica explains that her little boy was asking for her to put make-up on him from the age of two - and he just grew to love the art of it.

'We just want our kids to express themselves however they see fit,' she says. 'As long as they are respectful and nice people, then I really don't care!'

But then there was a turning point soon after Nemis turned seven - when he was introduced to Ru Paul's Drag Race for the first time.

'I love them because they do what they want to do and they aren't afraid to do it,' he says of the queens.

Soon enough, the confident eight-year-old was taking vogueing lessons and cultivating his stage persona: Lactatia.

It was Nemis' 14-year-old sister, Kashmyr Luna Higgins, who came up with the name. His mom Jessica also helps him with the make-up.

After offering the tiny queen some tips, Lactatia struts her stuff for the older drag artist, who couldn't be more impressed.

'By the time you turn 12, you are going to be a weapon of mass devastation,' says Vivacious.
