Trixie Mattel is a drag queen with an empire: a makeup line, a renovation show and a country music career. But before Trixie there was Brian Firkus, a small-town Wisconsin boy who played with Barbies and yearned for a life with the same potential and beauty. Trixie tells Sam stories about her upbringing, the first time she ever performed drag, and what her bff Katya has taught her about working less and playing more.  Follow Trixie Mattel on Instagram and TikTok @trixiemattel Stay up to date with us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram at @LemonadaMedia.  Joining Lemonada Premium is a great way to support our show and get bonus content.
