And especially because of that latter show’s universal popularity, you’ve probably been seen and are known by thousands more TV viewers than the most popular queens on Drag Race! Do you feel like your fanbase is more mainstream and less niche than the RuGirls?
The only saving grace through all of this was that I was lucky enough to have my partner with me… so I didn’t have to do it all alone.Īs far as TV drag queens go, you have had a really interesting career because you were not on one of the flagship RuPaul’s Drag Race shows–but you were on World of Wonder’s Queen of the Universe, and two seasons of American Idol. We moved from Los Angeles too, and then finally back to my hometown of San Antonio, Texas where we waited out the rest of the lockdown. It’s expensive out there, and I was doing the best I could to keep as much money coming in as possible by going entirely virtual and singing every single day on Instagram, Facebook, and even picking up contracts with entertainment streaming apps to make the most of the virtual situation we had all been forced into. I was living in Los Angeles at the moment… and when living in Los Angeles and losing all of your work and plans to a global pandemic, it becomes very difficult just to try and survive. I was just about to go on my second tour and was in the planning phases of my first album, music videos, a talk show, and so many wonderful things to finally move my life and career in the direction I had always dreamed of. The Covid lockdown was rough for many different reasons, but the fact that it happened when I was on the verge of making big things happen for myself is what really put a damper on my mood throughout the first half of the lockdown. What was your experience like, getting through that?Ĭoming out of this lockdown and getting back onto the stage and being able to share my voice with people in the flesh, instead virtually over social media, is so wonderful. It’s an exciting time here as we approach the warmer weather, but things of course were looking pretty bleak during the Covid lockdown.
