Out of drag, I’m a white guy with a guitar, which isn’t special. There are a million white guys with guitars. But being a drag queen with a guitar is a lot more commanding.

I’m an artist who happens to be in drag. And I think that’s why my drag is a little different.

Artist Different Drag Myself Thinking
People are slowly realizing that they’re looking at drag all the time. ‘Mrs. Doubtfire.’ ‘Real Housewives.’ Peewee Herman. Don’t let calling it drag make you uncomfortable.

That’s something I like about drag – I get to do everything. Collaborative arts are hard for me because I don’t really like to relinquish control.

I’m always myself. Always. The only difference is that I come off as mean out of drag.

In the real world, people go against my beliefs all the time, and I don’t make it my place to – like, I’m not super confrontational.

I’ve always said drag queens are like Swiss Army knives. Most come from having to take $50-a-show pay and doing their own costume, wig, music and jokes.

I don’t expect a lot of people who love drag to also be like, ‘I love ‘Drag Race,’ and then I got to hear my Chris Stapleton album.’ Not necessarily an obvious crossover.

I think being young and, like, 14, 15, you feel like a weirdo, and playing guitar with my grandpa in my grandma’s kitchen is probably my fondest memories I’ll ever have.

Whatever is underneath all the drag, it actually doesn’t really matter. It kind of just matters, are you a great entertainer? And are you nice to work with? Are you good at your job?

My favorite drag queens are Tammie Brown and Katya, so I like my drag queens a little left of sanity.

People on a daily basis walk up to me, panic, and tell me something extremely graphic and violent about their life.
