José David Sierra (born June 10, 1980), better known as Jessica Wild, is a Puerto Rican drag queen, professional make-up artist, and reality television personality.
Wild was born in San Juan but raised in Caguas, Puerto Rico. He is the youngest of three siblings. He started his drag career at local San Juan gay venues such as Krash (also known as Eros) and Starz. His drag name comes from a girl whom he dated as a teenager and "Wild" comes from his amazing dance performances.
Wild won an on-line vote to become a cast member of the second season of Logo's popular reality series, RuPaul's Drag Race, which premiered on the network in February 2010. He was eliminated in the seventh episode of the season, which first aired on March 22, 2010.
Besides his participation on RuPaul's Drag Race, Wild (along with season one contestant Nina Flowers) has performed on the popular Puerto Rican television program Objetivo Fama, which airs throughout the United States and Latin America. He also has made appearances on No te Duermas and other local television programs and specials. In August 2015, Wild, along with 29 other Drag Queens, performed live with Miley Cyrus at the MTV VMAS.
In April 2016, Wild appeared in a Telemundo news segment that covered his impersonation of the late Tejano singer, Selena at a Los Angeles night club, where he lip synched to "Disco Medley," "Como La Flor," "La Carcacha," and "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom."
