Marina Summers' presence in New York City was felt again after appearing on the New York Times Square billboard during Pride Month, weeks after visiting various regions of the United States for shows.
Marina's billboard advertisement is part of Spotify's Glow Pride Month promotion.
The "Drag Race Philippines" Season 1 runner-up teased a "big news" announcement in a tweet on the morning of June 2.
Marina confirmed her collaboration with Spotify later that day, as online buzz swelled.
She retweeted a quote from Spotify News' report on the billboard. Later that afternoon, Marina revealed another "big news" by landing on the digital billboard of New York Times Square in New York City.
In a subsequent tweet, she provided a video of her official photo on the popular website.

The beauty of the Filipina drag queen shone through in the enormous, colorful advertising for Spotify's Glow campaign for the LGBTQIA+ community.
Marina has joined the ranks of other Filipino artists and singers who have been on the New York Times' digital billboard. Among them are Nadine Lustre, the Pinoy pop groups BINI and SB19, Dingdong Dantes, Janine Berdin, Julie Anne San Jose, Clara Benin, and Belle Mariano.
The drag queen has already visited New York City to perform and explore. She also attended DragCon LA with her fellow Season 1 "Drag Race Philippines" queens.
Meanwhile, Spotify started its Pride Month program to highlight "the LGBTQIA+ community's culture and achievements, raise awareness of issues and injustices, and advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights."
Glow is Spotify's global music program committed to honoring and highlighting the brilliance of LGBTQIA+ creators and musicians.
