This material is very much used in past & current fashion and in Drag Costumes, at least in the past year. Nothing new, but it’s cool to see her designers use it for this tour.
With a heavy heart, it has unfortunately come time for us to close

. I am grateful for all of the memories and moments we’ve shared at this venue. I am grateful for being part of this journey and it of mine in my growth as an entertainer... cont ⬇️

shirt, hella chewing my gum… like who else but me? 😂
I get it, I’m not in drag and you may not recognizing me, but completely brushing off my friendly approach is rude af. Like even if I was a stranger at least be kind and introduce yourself. Why are Gays so fucking rude!
I post this with a heavy heart… last night
@PortBarOakland
was intentionally vandalized! This is an act of homophobia & hate! I cannot tell you how distraught & upset I am 😡🥺. We are currently fighting for our home away from home! Please share! 🙏🏼❤️
If you’re hosting a show, you should not be part of your performers number. Let alone constantly talking on the mic during the number. Like you should be off to the side or in the back changing into your next look like girl…
Out of town performers: when you come to the Bay Area or SF… it is NOT “San Fran” 😂
Acceptable Terms: SF, Frisco, Fog City, SF City, City by the Bay, the 415, SFC…
I find it unsettling that GAPA is participating in this event. I understand to rep the QAAPI community, but my concern is how any of us could align themselves with an org like APEC while their investments fund a war against innocent refugees.

How are you gonna book a PRIDE Drag Brunch at your hotel and NOT pay your performers?! And no I don’t want to be compensated with a 1 night stay. Got me fucked up lol
Not

I was going to stay quiet, but I am so upset by the actions of the owner of this venue, this “queen” & anyone who jumps into this “re-cast”. It’s Pride & Juneteenth, a close friend and a stand out leader of Black excellence in our community is being pushed out of their own show.
Just watched a Drag brunch show and it’s so weird to see the silence even when it’s a full house. Like the performer is dancing the house down boots and ya’ll just rocking side to side. Scream at them, get excited, throw some money shit!
When are producers going to realize that $200 for a Private event with local government officials during PRIDE month is not going to cut it. Especially when you’re asked to Host & Perform twice!
Had an inquiry to perform during Pride week for a priv event, to sing, dance and fill a 30 minute perf slot, with a $100 budget.
Believe me, my response was very much educational on cost of EXPERIENCED Entertainment & esp during Pride week. Check your facts folks before asking!
So fortunate for my chosen family and friends. Behind the scenes life has thrown me off balance and approaching these feelings has been a challenge as well. I know it may not show but I really do appreciate those in my community who lift me up.
I wish some of ya’ll would take care of your own Drag children. I know I’m a good mentor, but they should be able to ask their own Drag Family on how to paint, sew/style, network etc. And then hoes get mad at me talking about “She’s not your mother…” then bitch teach something!
Been enjoying my day off at home today. Being always around people can be energy draining and sometimes I forget to give myself time to recharge. Hope everyone’s having a good day. 😊
I’m sad that my brunch at Port Bar is prly not going to come back with how things are looking, but Feb is looking blessed & I’m excited for all these new opportunities coming, enough that I have options & can make my own terms. + Private & corporate events. Drag resume ✅
THIS ENERGY! PERIOD! Fuck these YT Elitist Educators who want to censor BIPOC. Years of studying & hardwork and she couldn’t even say her whole name & major at her graduation, fuck that, I would’ve done the same. Congratulations boo!
Queens & Kings, one word: EARRINGS.
Idc if you gotta glue some shit to your ear, I don’t wanna see ya’ll teletubby ears poking out from the side of your hair looking like a Nancy Drew reading white girl in middle school eating her squashed PB&J in the library.
@smintyschiffer
She knew the first verse but the lip sync wasn’t strong enough, you can tell when a performer isn’t confident with the lyrics. Her lip sync is soft & inexpressive. She literally was attempting to distract with her dancing until she realized she had to look at Ru lol
I don’t get how a club can give each of their resident performers one Friday show a month, they just hire each other and name the shows something different each Friday. So it’s the same show just a different host… like?…
Wanting to bring Battle On Broadway back to Oakland, what do ya’ll want to see us do differently this time?
And yes we’re still going to give critiques, that’s the only way you’ve seen all these bby queens grow, literally 👀😂
I’m all for helping an out of town performer acquire gigs and connect them. But honey, first BUY your plane ticket before I confirm you for these gigs, coz last time you didn’t show up 👀
#TimeMoneyEnergyWasted
Had to take Bart again today to Oakland because in traffic it was gonna take an HOUR to get to Port Bar from my house. Wish me and these riders safe passage.
If you’re gonna come to the show, pay cover, buy drinks, buy drugs, you should be able to tips the entertainers more than a $1.

Don’t let now promoter, no venue owner, no DJ, no Host tell you what you can or cannot perform. Baby you hired me to do a job because you like the way I do it. Don’t patronize your performers.
Today CHACHO’s where I produce a drag brunch was recognized by Santa Clara County & the state of California for its commitment to the community of Morgan Hill & for providing an inclusive & safe space for LGBTQ & Allies. I’m so proud to have been part of this moment & movement.
I think it’s time I build a one woman show again, but a full experience, lots of live vocals, full numbers with back ups, lights, props, costumes… let’s reconvene after Pride
Ugh I have opinions on this “Drag School” that’s being discussed about in SF & I’m afraid I’m gonna ruffle some feathers, but I don’t agree with the idea. Id rather see the gen public be educated about drag & queer culture, & not teaching them how to do it, like it’s a vocation.
Why are all circuit muscle gays the same, regardless of demographics. They all have this elitist mentality that they’re above it all. Like humble yourself, BRO.
I’m not taking my post down. Im not working for anyone or who’s going to blindside/low ball performers because you want to bring on a drag race queen to produce, who in the past has withheld money/opportunities from performers. It’s the principle. Your motives are shady & greedy.

The LGBTQ community’s rights are being jeopardized once again, more specifically the Transgender & Drag communities, but ya’ll still giving away your money to conservative bigots like Philip Anschutz… but yeah go ahead sis have fun at Coachella.
Did I really book myself for 8 gigs this week….

Love ya’ll, pray for me lol 🙏🏼❤️🌟
Just got vaccinated for the flu, pneumonia, & the updated Covid vaccine. All you hoes keep getting each other sick, and I’m not tryna get sick anymore! 😩😂 Go to Walgreens, it’s free!
Performers, if your promoting on social media, which is also part of ya job… it HELPS to TAG everyone that’s working the event, in the post, to circulate the promotion… it’s not that hard. 🙈
DUDE! Why that guy from the other night I had to kick out just rang my doorbell and asked to come in?! Talkin about he brought a bottle, MF ITS 10AM! I said please DO NOT this again, I don’t want to see you. Like wtf just showed up at my door step?! MFs is crazy
Was in a good mood until I just got out of Bart to get to this gig downtown, it’s MF Pride, why you MFs looking at me weird? It’s San Francisco god damn it!
Mercury retrograde is really fucking with me, it’s got to be… feeling a little overwhelmed with requests, a lot of last minute changes to my schedule, and now my father is in the hospital in another state and it’s not looking good. Praying for his recovery and my sanity.
