Nick Nash (born 14 April 1986), professionally known as Kita Mean, is a drag artist from New Zealand acclaimed for hosting the show House of Drag and securing victory in the debut season of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under.

Career

From 2018 through 2020, Kita teamed up with Anita Wigl'it as judges on New Zealand's drag competition series House of Drag, becoming widely recognized as the pair Kita and Anita. Together, they initiated Drag Wars, a recurring monthly event dedicated to promoting local drag performers, and are joint proprietors of both the Caluzzi Cabaret and Phoenix Venue located in Auckland.

In March 2021, it was revealed that both would participate as contestants in the premiere season of RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under. During the competition, Kita secured a win in the makeover challenge featured in episode 6 and, after landing in the bottom two during episode 7, eliminated fellow contestant Elektra Shock. On 19 June 2021, Kita Mean earned the distinction of being crowned the first-ever winner of the series.

Later that year, in December 2021, Kita took on a starring role in the pantomime production of Beauty and the Beast at the Isaac Theatre Royal. Currently, she co-hosts the podcast Kita and Anita's Happy Hour alongside Anita Wigl'it.
