Early life

Martell Robinson

Season two.[6]

Career

Before Drag Race, Robinson appeared as the character, Mordecai, in the 2008 film First Sunday.[7] He also appeared with fellow Drag Race alumnus Willam for an episode of The New Normal in 2013.[8]

RuPaul's Drag Race

Jasmine was announced as one of the fourteen contestants for

season nine of Drag Race, with Brown impersonating her for the annual "Snatch Game".[11]

Masters competed on the Drag Race television special

Shangela was late during one of the rehearsals, which caused Masters to become frustrated and leave the set early.[13][14]

Masters was announced to compete on the

fourth season of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars.[15][16] She was eliminated in the first episode by Trinity the Tuck after her stand-up performance for the annual talent show, placing 10th.[17][18] She had a chance to return in sixth episode, where the eliminated queens faced off with the queens still in running, but lost a lip sync to Trinity, conclusively eliminating her from the competition.[19]

She appeared as a guest for the first challenge in the premiere of

season eleven of Drag Race.[20]

After Drag Race

After Drag Race, she was one of thirty drag queens featured in

VMA performance.[21]

Masters gained notoriety with her self-published YouTube videos on her channel. Her video "RuPaul Dragrace fucked up drag", criticizing the show's portrayal of drag, sparked criticism from fans and queens including

Phi Phi O'Hara.[22] The video was featured in Willam's internet show, "Willam's Beatdown".[23] Her video "Fix ur breath" was featured in a post on Justin Bieber's Instagram page, making Masters go viral.[24]

Because of Masters's viral success, she is the host of her own web show with WowPresents called "Jasmine Masters' Class" that premiered its first episode in 2018.[25] She also was featured as a guest in an episode of Lemme Pick You Up with Ts Madison.[26] She was a guest for multiple episodes of the web series "Wait, What?" with Kimora Blac.[27][28]

She was with

Access.[30]

Masters appeared in the music video for Latrice Royale's "Excuse the Beauty" on May 10, 2018[31] and Pandora Boxx's "Oops I Think I Pooped" on September 24, 2018.[32]

Masters featured on the single "And I Oop!" by Adam Joseph in June 2019.

She is also working on a podcast called The Wake and Bake with Honey Davenport.[33]

Since June 4, 2023, Masters hosts her own brunch & evening drag show each week called Jush Sundays in LGBTQ event space Fluid510 in Oakland, California. She invites drag race contestants and local drag queens to perform alongside her. This is the first major recurring drag show featuring TV stars in the San Francisco Bay Area.[34]

Masters featured on the talk show Very Delta, hosted by drag queen Delta Work, on episode 63 "Do you Oop! like me?".[35]

In popular culture

A clip of Masters interrupting herself in shock, known as "And I Oop", became an

gif of 2019,[41] with over 419 million views.[42] Masters also trademarked the term.[43]
