Sum Ting Wong is the stage name of Bo Zeng, a drag queen from Birmingham. She is best known for her appearance on the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
Early life
Bo Zeng was born in Birmingham to Vietnamese immigrant parents of Chinese descent.
Career
Sum Ting Wong's name comes from an incident in 2013, when KTVU in San Francisco aired stereotypical Chinese-sounding gag names of the Asiana Airlines Flight 214 pilots including "Sum Ting Wong" (something wrong), "Wi Tu Lo" (we [are] too low) and "Ho Lee Fuk" (holy fuck). Wong has said she chose to reappropriate the name for herself to reflect her British Vietnamese heritage. She competed on the first series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.
Outside of Drag Race, she is a Twitch streamer and musician.
