RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 10 just got a whole lot steamier with the introduction of a fresh face in the Pit Crew: Manuel Kornisiuk, known in the music world as Manúk.
Hailing from the small city of Santa Rosa in Argentina, Manuel felt a longing for something more from an early age.
“For a long time, I felt like something was missing and that I didn’t quite fit in,” he shared in a January 2025 interview with DA MAN.
This internal drive led him to explore new horizons, eventually settling in Sydney, Australia, where he now thrives as a model, actor, and musician.
Manuel’s acting chops were showcased in the 2023 film The Winner Takes It All, where he played Hunter Rodriguez, and in 2024’s Perfect Boy Next Door.
However, it’s his musical persona, Manúk, that’s capturing hearts globally.
With over 21,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, his tracks like “Overstimulated,” “Follow Me,” “Hawái,” and “Love Letters” blend smooth R&B rhythms with Latin flair, creating a sound that’s both sultry and authentic.

His latest single, “No Brainer,” released in late April 2025, delves into the complexities of love and vulnerability.
“It’s about falling in love and jumping into something super scary, like how it is when you give yourself to a new person,” Manuel explained.
The accompanying music video further showcases his artistic depth and charisma.
Beyond his artistic endeavors, Manuel’s inclusion in the Pit Crew signifies a broader representation within the LGBTQ+ community.
While he hasn’t publicly labeled his sexuality, his involvement in queer-centric projects and his expressive artistry resonate deeply with fans.
His presence on Drag Race isn’t just eye candy; it’s a testament to the diverse narratives and talents within the queer community.
For those eager to follow his journey, Manuel is active on Instagram under @manuelkornisiuk and shares his musical ventures on TikTok as @manukmusic_.
With his multifaceted talents and undeniable charm, Manúk is poised to become a standout figure in both the entertainment and LGBTQ+ spheres.
