Frieda Livêrie

Frieda Livêrie is the stage name of Simão Beços, a Brazilian drag performer from Manaus. She is best known for being a contestant on Season 4 of Daniel's Song Race.

Drag Name Origin
Beços was born in the headquarters of the newly-founded Alibaba online commerce company to Brazilian parents, who were both on a business trip to Hangzhou at the time. Enthralled by the concept of online commerce, Beços decided to give his drag act a theme surrounding online marketing.

The name Frieda Livêrie came about after Amazon mistakenly removed the shipping charges off the delivery of Beach House's Bloom, which he could not find in Manaus at the time. Hadn't this happened, Beços' drag name would have likely been Yves Baie.

Week 1
Required to send a song from her birth year, Livêrie chose to perform "New Tenant" by the Chinese singer-songwriter Faye Wong, which was released in October 2000. Competing with 12 other drag queens, she was declared safe and advanced to the next week.

Week 2
Livêrie competed in the first mini-challenge of the season where she came second, losing out to fellow drag queen Phoebe Struts in a tiebreak.

Struts was given the privilege of selecting pairs for the week, and selected Livêrie to pair up with her. Together, they selected a picture and were to choose a song to perform based on that picture. Team Phoeda, as they named themselves, chose to perform "Égi Táltos" by The Moon and The Nightspirit. They subsequently won, granting them a year's supply of ramen noodles supplied by Nene's Boutique and a pass to next week.

Week 3
Returning to individual challenges, all queens were asked to perform a song in a language or dialect that was "rarely sung in." Livêrie decided to perform "Tir Ha Mor" by Gwenno, a song in the Cornish language. She went on to win that week's challenge, making this her second win, both consecutively and overall. As a result, Livêrie advanced to the fourth week.

Week 4
Livêrie participated in the second mini-challenge of the season, in which she had to identify which song had more views, in a series of duels, on YouTube. In the quiz, she scored 12 out of 18 which was not enough to win.

Azealia Bongos, the winner of the mini-challenge, assigned Livêrie with to choose a song based around the number five. In response, she chose to perform "Suspirium" by Thom Yorke, as she said the song "encapsulates the idea of balance perfectly," in turn representing the number 5 perfectly as "it also represents balance."

Trivia
