High-kicking and jump-splitting is how you'll find this young star making her mark in New York City. However, this classically trained dancer is by no means just a bag of tricks. Sahara Davenport is talent personified. It is her beauty, grace, comedic styling, and charisma that brings audiences to their feet. Not to mention, Sahara has an energy that surpasses all, as Michael Musto of The Village Voice suggested, "we need to bottle her and pass it around."

This Dallas native got her start while in college as a choreographer to many of the drag legends competing on the pageant scene (Whitney Paige, Alexis Gabrielle-Sherrington, Victoria West, and Kelexis Davenport to name a few). In hopes of making her own dreams come true, Sahara moved to NYC after graduating college. Upon her arrival, she won many contests and competitions all over the city before landing her own show at uptown hangout, Suite. You may have also seen her performing at such bars and nightclubs as, Barracuda, Vlada, Escuelita, Therapy, XL, The Monster, and Splash.

She was featured in the pilot of Judge Karen as an angry Beyonce impersonator who sues the paparrazzi. Sahara made her art film debut in award-winning artist, Kalup Linzy's video-performance piece Melody Set Me Free which was shown at the Whitney Museum of America Art. Sahara's talents have also been highlighted in music videos "Girl Problems" by the group Girl Problems and "Gettin Over" by Billboard chart topping artists David Guetta and Chris Willis. In February 2010 look for Sahara Davenport as a contestant on the critically acclaimed reality television show Rupaul's Drag Race on Logo.

She has also done benefits for Ocean State Aids Care of Rhode Island, Our Youth Organization, and The Hetrick Martin Institute, a school for gay and questioning youth.
