The Show
Fauxgirls! began in June, 2001, the descendent of its parent revue, En Drag, a trend-setting show that changed the style of drag shows in San Francisco, and had the ambition and chutzpah to challenge the famous Finocchio's, way back in 1996, at Kimo's.

After En Drag finally closed, following a run of more than three years, it later morphed into Fauxgirls! which has now run successfully since 2001, making it one of the longest-running drag shows in San Francisco.

The Founding Members
of Fauxgirls!
Victoria Secret
Creator and Producer
After two degrees in drama from UC Berkeley and many years in legitimate theater, which included a role in the musical, La Cage aux Folles, Victoria Secret began her drag career in 1991 as a cocktail waitress and performer at Lily's, the fondly-remembered drag bar that closed in 1994, and is now Martuni's. Victoria then moved to Kimo's, also as cocktail waitress, and in 1996 she created the trendsetting show, En Drag, with a then-new face, Chablis, as show hostess. That show has since morphed into Fauxgirls! and now features Victoria as co-hostess with the fabulous Alexandria.
In late 2005, Victoria retired early from her "day job" as a criminal trial attorney, and is now happily employed as a bartender and show hostess at Divas, the well-known transgender nightclub in San Francisco. She is also active in TGSF (Transgender San Francisco) and the Ducal and Imperial Courts of San Francisco. In the Imperial Court, she was elevated to the permanent title of "Cocktail Princess to the Ruby Empress" by Absolute Empress XXX, Donna Sachet, in 1996.
Kitten Caboodle
Co-Founder
Then known as Anjelica Devarox, Kitten arrived in San Francisco in 2000, with the force of a tornado from her Midwestern heartland, and soon took The City by storm. She was immediately seen onstage at numerous shows and events, and earned titles in both the Ducal and Imperial Courts of San Francisco. After hosting her own show at Aunt Charlie's Lounge, she co-founded Fauxgirls! with Victoria Secret, and took on hosting duties for the first two years of the show. Her limitless creative energy was a driving force in the genesis of Fauxgirls!
After taking time off from the show to run for Empress of San Francisco, Kitten then concentrated on her career in the food and beverage industry. She has now returned to her original home in Colorado, to spend more time with her family and to pursue new goals there. We wish her well, and hope she comes back to visit us soon.
Bliss
Original Fauxgirl
Bliss is our only part-time Fauxgirl, who occasionally returns to perform as a guest star. She is known and admired for her unique impersonations of rarely-seen vocal legends, such as Billie Holliday. Bliss is very active in the Ducal Court of San Francisco, where she holds several titles, and she is often seen helping and performing at benefit shows. She is also seen frequently in the Dream Queens Revue at Aunt Charlie's Lounge. When she is not performing, she works as a hairstylist in an upscale salon in Cow Hollow.
Donna Rae
Original Fauxgirl
Donna Rae went on to be Grand Duchess of San Francisco in 2003 after leaving Fauxgirls! She has since hung up her gowns and tiara and retired from the drag world. She now works at Starbucks and lives a comfortable life as Donald.
Reality
Original Fauxgirl
Reality left the drag scene after leaving Fauxgirls! (shortly after Donna Rae) to concentrate on her other "home away from home," the leather community, where she won several titles in her male persona of Louis. She has now returned to the drag world to perform occasionally at Aunt Charlie's Lounge.
Mona Lott
Original Fauxgirl
Mona Lott left San Francisco ater leaving Fauxgirls! We ran into her in Key West a few years ago, and then lost track of her completely. We have finally located her in Sacramento, where she is happily working as a sales rep for Avon, in her male persona of Raylee. We hope we'll be able to get her to come back for a guest spot in the show very soon!
