'Drag Race' alum scores silver medal in artistic swimming at World Aquatics Masters

A former Drag Race competitor has found a new place to shine — the world of artistic swimming. And she just won a silver medal in a major international competition in the process. Fans of Canada's Drag Race may know Giorgio Triberio better as Gia Metric, one of the queens who made it to the top four in season two of the RPDR spin-off. But off-stage, Triberio has spent the last year training to attend the 2025 World Aquatics Masters Championships in Singapore. Speaking to OutSports, the Drag Race alum admitted that he became interested in artistic swimming after attending a show in 2021 with a friend, Jordan Wuest, who works as a coach. "I remember being sat in the crowd at this show, jaw on the floor, being like, 'Oh my gosh, they're dancing in the water!'" he said. "I was mesmerized as I'd never seen synchro in person before. That's where my fascination with the sport began." Triberio wound up asking Wuest to train him, setting a goal to join her club at the Worlds this summer. With hard work, he qualified at provincials in April with a gold medal and set off for Singapore, where he performed to an original song he wrote and recorded himself. And when all was said and done, he not only came in second for his age group (30-39) in the men's solo free competition, but walked away empowered to keep competing. "It's an incredible feeling," he told OutSports. "Coming into Singapore, there was so much potential in this being a 'one and done' for me. Now I'm looking at the Gay Games in Valencia next year, and there's potential to achieve a lot of things. It's definitely something I'll be sticking to."

Swimmer misses graduation to win bronze medal

A student who swapped her graduation for the World Aquatics Championships went away with a bronze medal. Izzy Thorpe, 24, won bronze in the free mixed duet category at the international competition in Singapore with her swimming partner Ranjuo Tomblin on 25 July. On the same day, the graduation ceremony for her sports rehabilitation degree from University of the West of England (UWE) took place almost 7,000 miles away at the Bristol Beacon. Ms Thorpe thanked her lecturers for their "great support" while she studied alongside her training, which she said was "basically like a full-time job". "They were always very understanding and helped me where they could," she said. "Luckily UWE was very supportive." "I've learnt a lot studying at UWE not only with my degree but in other aspects of life as well," she added. "One of the main things for me is I've learnt how important a good balance is, to make sure I'm achieving the most I can while also ensuring my happiness and wellbeing is a priority."
