I did a lot of improv in high school and I think that definitely helped me. So you said you did theater before - do you think that's helped with your career as a performer? So are you unemployed, are you bored with your life, or are you an alcoholic? Or all of the above? And I'm okay with that. You're at a drag show at a bar on a Monday. It's mostly about being involved with the audience and asking them where they're from and all those questions and having a good time. People want their drag queens dumb and funny and that's what I do on stage. There's this one running joke that I have here where I'm like, "We have this workshop where we all work together here at Pieces Bar and help each other learn things like: New Mexico is a state." Okay, well actually that was the truth, I actually learned that here, but I do like to play dumb sometimes. I am the smartest bitch you will ever meet, I will tell you that right now, but on the microphone I love playing dumb. Go do your damn show." But when it comes to asking questions and stuff - I love playing dumb on the microphone. But not too much involvement where you annoy the audience, because I've been to some drag shows where it's like, "Okay, girl. The way I like to do it is pander towards the audience and really make a connection, because when people leave my shows I want them to feel like we've been friends for 10 years. I'm not a comedy queen, it just so happens that when I talk it's funny to people. Do you prepare bits to do while you're hosting or is it mostly improv?
