Trixie Mattel has cemented her spot as one of the most successful queens to have appeared on the popular reality television series, with albums that have hit number one on iTunes, a successful make-up brand, a stint as a judge on Queen of the Universe, and an upcoming reality show about renovating a hotel in Palm Springs under her… corset.

“I’ve played guitar since I was 13. I always envisioned Trixie as a comedian, but I never considered weaving my songwriting in to my standup sets,” Trixie told Renowned for Sound in an interview.

“When I started combining music and comedy at 25, it was like an instant lightbulb moment. People would sit through my hour long comedy show and at the end of the night tell me their favorite part was the ballad I weaseled into the section about breakups. I am only good at making people laugh or cry.”
