“Danika—because it is close to my birth name, an Bone’t because it’s my drag mother’s last name.”
FIRST DRAG PERFORMANCE
“I started doing drag in 2013 for Baton Rouge Pride and the first number I ever performed was ‘Don’t Cha’ by The Pussycat Dolls.”
DRAG INSPIRATION
“Roxxxy Andrews and Latrice Royal, because they prove that being plus-size should never hold you back; it should be an asset in your career.”
GO-TO NUMBER TO SLAY A CROWD
“‘Diva Dance’ from The Fifth Element, because I sing it live—and sometimes people don’t even realize that until halfway through the song!”
FUTURE PROJECTS
“I want to put more live theater into drag, so I’m working on a drag-cast version of a full musical.”
FUN FACT
“I don’t drink that much, which is blasphemous for a drag performer!”
WHERE CAN WE CATCH YOU
“I host karaoke on Sundays from 7-11 pm, Bingo on Mondays from 9 pm-1 am and Twisted Tuesdays with shows at 12:30 and 1:30— all at Charlie’s Chicago, as well as random shows throughout the city.”
