Meet Dynasty Diva: Borgia Bloom
In anticipation of the premiere edition of Divas of Dynasty, our first all-drag-revue at Dynasty Typewriter, we're catching up with some of the performers who will be gracing the stage.
Borgia Bloom is a performer from Santa Barbara who loves all things drag, especially old school.
When were you first introduced to drag and why did it make an impact?
B: I was first introduced to Drag (definitely before puberty ) when I saw a photo of Divine in PEOPLE magazine and was fascinated with her. Then again when i saw Priscilla Queen of the Desert... I was absolutely mesmerized by what looked like to me as real life fantasy.
Which of your talents are you most proud of and why?
B: I'm most proud of is the ability to lose myself on stage... and I only want it to get stronger.
What do you like to do when you're NOT in drag?
B: When I’m not in drag I love to explore LA ( just moved here from Santa Barbara ) I’m constantly looking for inspiration in all forms. I feel empty otherwise.
What’s your go-to lip-sync song, and why?
B: “Don’t Leave Me This Way” by Thelma Houston.
If you could have an all-queen dream dinner party, who’d be invited?
B: If I could have an all queen dinner party I think it would be fun to invite queens to make me laugh.. Eating and laughing are my favorite things .. Sherry Vine, Heklina, Peaches, Bianca Del Rio, Lypsinka, Bunny, Sharon Needles, Chad Michaels, Vicky Vox... and Goooorrrllll I would just sit back and take IT ALL IN!!!
Divas of Dynasty kicks off on May 25th with a star-studded cornucopia of entertainers. Directed & hosted by Tye Blue, this unique theatrical experience will also star Pandora Boxx, as well as master illusionist Vancie Vega, beloved So Cal favorites Dolly Levi and Borgia Bloom. Get more info here.
