Morgan McMichaels (born 28 May 1981) is the female persona of Scottish-American drag performer Thomas White. A local fixture in Southern California's drag circuit, White became a reality television personality when he joined the cast of the second season of the popular cable television reality competition RuPaul's Drag Race. He is the drag daughter of renowned drag queen Chad Michaels.

Born as Thomas White in Scotland, he is one of four siblings. Born to a Scottish father and a Scottish mother, he relocated to Los Angeles, California when he was 18 years old.

McMichaels joined the cast of the second season of RuPaul's in 2010. During his time on the show, he became close friends with fellow contestant Sonique and continued his friendship with Raven. Highlights included losing his wig during a Gone with the Wind-inspired photo shoot, winning the first challenge with a Barbarella-inspired costume, getting into a heated argument with fellow contestant Mystique Summers Madison (which was featured in an "Untucked" episode), and winning a lip synch battle to the song "Two of Hearts" by Stacey Q — against contestant Sonique. McMichaels' final challenge was to pose for a wedding photo as both the bride and the groom, and design and model a wedding gown.

His gown was criticized for the shape and looking too much like a costume, and he ended up in the bottom two. He was eliminated after losing a lip sync performance battle to contestant Sahara Davenport.

McMichaels, along with fellow contestants Raven, Jujubee, and Pandora Boxx appeared in RuPaul's Drag U, a spinoff Logo series in 2010.
