“Maybe 15 years ago when the movie ‘The Birdcage’ was all the rage and it was ‘in’ to have a drag queen perform at your party the way that you would have an ice sculpture or crudités. I booked myself, [fellow drag queens] Damien Devine and Daisy Deadpetals to perform at the 21st birthday of the son of race car driver Emerson Fittipaldi. Before going on, I went to hide in the kitchen to go over the lines of the song I was going to lip-sync, and who else was hiding in the kitchen with me but George Harrison of the Beatles! I thought to myself, ‘What can we talk about? What can I say to him? I’m sure he’s sick about talking about the Beatles,’ and I know that he was sued by the Shirelles for that song ‘My Sweet Lord’. Was it Bangladesh or no nukes? So I looked around the room and both our eyes settled on the cake and I said, ‘I wonder what kind of cake it is?’ He said in his Beatles accent, ‘I love wedding cake, I love white cake, I love all kinds of cake!’ So one of my best memories of Miami Beach was hiding in a kitchen in full drag in a gazillionaire’s home with one of the Beatles talking about our mutual love of cake and all of the different cake varieties. And that was just a day at the office for me back in the 90’s.”
