Venus D Lite
Finalist from RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 3
Hotspots Magazine is very proud to have entered into an agreement with LOGO TV to be the only magazine in Florida to interview the eliminated contestant from RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 3 every week.
We hope you enjoy the first interview with Venus D Lite.
1) At what age did female impersonation become an interest?
It became an interest when I was 17 as I had a friend who was doing drag and my boyfriend hung out with a lot of drag queens because he was a dancer. It caught my curiosity, because I have always been creative.
2) How did you pick your name?
I was young and was very poor. I had no internet or phone, so I went to Kinkos to check out my e-mail. ìVenus Was Her Name ìwas on the radio and I thought that would be a really cool name and I went home to my boyfriend and came up with the last name D Lite and the rest is history!
3) How did you go about getting on ìRuPauls Drag Race.î Tell me about the experience?
I had auditioned twice and it was my goal to be on the show and I wasnít going to give up. Pretty much every drag queen wants to be on RuPaulís Drag Race so I made my audition very funny and entertaining and I crossed my fingers. I got called to the audition and I wore the most eye catching outfit as possible,. When I found out I made it, I was so shocked and emotional. It was a thrill.
The experience was a little short lived but I had a blast! It was a dream come true to be on the set and meet all these fabulous entertainers.
4) Who do you want to win?
I have one favorite veteran and one favorite new girl. I would love to see Raja as the veteran as she is an inspiration to a lot of people. As a young girl Manilla, because she is very talented and is a flower that is waiting to fully bloom.
5) Tell me about the man behind Venus D Lite?
My boy name is Adam and I am from LA and I am very retro. I love to go out dancing and watch movies. I actually gave up film school to be in drag, but I am planning on going back to school and put drag in my projects. I am just a friendly and loyal person.
6) Tell me something people would be surprised to know about you.
I am the only male Madonna impersonator on a major motion picture (The Combeacks in 2006 by 20th century fox).
7) What ís ahead for Venus D Lite?
I am doing a lot of traveling in the near future. I am going to Chicago, New York and Japan is in the works, which I am very excited about. I am also working on 2 documentaries. One is about my life as a Madonna impersonator and the second is a really Alice and wonderland scenario. The film maker is a 20 year old film school student and I am the first drag queen he has been around. I am like the white rabbit taking him into a foreign world. I am looking forward to all of these wonderful things!
