- And crack-tion!
Hey everybody, it's me, Miz Cracker,
and I am here at Buzzfeed to tell you about my first times.
(playful music)
We got a box here with all these little questions.
I'm gonna tell you about the first time
I did every one of these things.
Let's go into it.
The first thing you think
when you hear lip sync for your life.
I think of RuPaul's beautiful
but threatening lady voice everytime.
Monét X Change, the time has come.
Like, the most important part of that voice
is to release twice as much air as you need.
Miz Cracker, the time has come
for you to lip sync (breathes deeply) for your life.
Oh, I can't say my first drag name.
I'll have to go with another one.
(giggles) We can't say that on camera.
My second drag name though was Brianna Cracker.
Just like Brie-on-a-Cracker.
It's just my favorite snack.
So I was like, I mean, I'm not gonna do drag for that long.
Probably just this week,
so it doesn't have to be like a classy name.
And here we are.
First queen I would love to see compete on All Stars 5?
I would have to say Shea Couleé
because the (bleep) is fashion in a way that I resent.
She's out there wearing outfits
that are so incredible all the time.
I'm like damn it, (bleep).
Can you take a day off so I can rest?
Oh my god.
This is personal.
How dare you ask this.
My first AIM account name.
You never ask a woman her first AIM account name.
DeskForScully because Gillian Anderson's character
in The X-Files didn't have a desk and feminism.
Does she need one? (laughs)
First time meeting Roberta Elaine the Drag Queen,
otherwise known as Bob the Drag Queen.
I actually met Bob the Drag Queen on the screet.
He was struggling a bookcase home in the snow
and I was like, I'm a good Samaritan.
I'm gonna help.
After we hauled that bookcase through the snow,
we got to his apartment and I looked around.
It was full of wigs.
I was like, oh my god.
What have I gotten myself into?
And the rest is history.
My first celebrity crush was,
I'm basic, we know this.
It was Jude Law.
I used to download pictures of Jude Law
when you had to download them stripe by stripe on dial up.
That's commitment.
Kids these days don't know
about that kind of celebrity love!
If you can't love me at my dial up
you don't deserve me at my high speed internet!
My first job, for all you West Coasters,
was working at the QFC,
the Quality Food Center, as a bag boy.
And I was so unqualified for the job
that I didn't along in that first interview
and my dad had to come in and speak to the manager like,
"You have no idea what a treasure you're missing!"
And so I became head bag boy on register one
and, I have to tell you,
it's a skill I still use to this day.
(laughs) It's like not a joke, it's just a fact.
First thing you do when you wake up.
I'm not gonna lie, I look at Instagram.
First selfie on Instagram.
(playful music)
No!
First of all, this is fashion.
This is my first selfie on Instagram.
This is actually a really good story
because it says a lot about me.
This is me lying in a bathtub halfway through my face
because I had been throwing up
throughout the entire powdering process.
I was gonna go do the show anyway.
And god (bleep), I have never missed a gig.
Hadn't back then, still have not.
And I would do a number, go throw up,
do a number, throw up, and come back, finish the show.
I am proud of this selfie
'cause it says a lot about myselfie.
Yeah, this is duct tape 'cause I used to stack my wigs.
So I would duct tape a wig to my head
and then duct tape another wig over that.
First time performing in drag.
Today actually is my first...
Is my first one.
No, my first time performing in drag
was at a little bar in New York that's now closed.
It's called Excess
and it was Bob the Drag Queen and Frosty Flakes' show
but at that time Bob was Kittin Withawhip.
And then when I actually did my performance
I got so into it, when I bent over
the back of my dress completely unzipped
and both of my sock titties fell out.
So illusion broken.
Illusion broken.
Which incidentally is the name
of my new autobiography, Illusion Broken.
My first kiss was in the back of a baptist church
while they were playing Titanic because romance.
First time realizing you were famous.
The first time I realized I was famous.
You know, I think it was just the other day actually
because I was googling images for my show.
While I was googling drag race,
all these picture of me kept coming up.
I'm like, why?
Oh my god!
I was on that show!
And that it finally sunk in after like over a year.
So yeah, I just realized.
Here's our last question.
First pet.
My first pet was a tuxedo cat named Misha.
She was bigger than me.
I'm still a cat lady.
And guess what?
More and more so over the years.
Something to look forward to.
(clicks tongue) Tea.
That's all the questions for today in first times.
I'm very excited to be here in New York for just a minute
for my one woman show, American Woman,
which is about to premiere at the Laurie Beechman Theater
and then hit every single continent in the world
except Antarctica 'cause I'm leaving that for Shangela.
