There’s a recipe for vodka lemonade, quizzes about self-love and hoarding (“People are like goldfish. Writing about hygiene (“You can’t get clean off of yesterday’s shower”), Katya, often describing herself as “rotted,” notes, “The only time in my life when I adequately prepared for an important event was when I bleached my teeth before I appeared on television.” Trixie notes, “For dressing in drag at least, there’s such a learning curve of learning your body, and what you have to do to your body to look like this imaginary body,” poignantly evoking the kind of dysmorphia experienced by trans folks, among others. In their conversation on personal style (defining it as a point of view), the two express pet peeves (corsets as outwear, blue mascara) and point out that “your clothes can completely tell a story.”

“The skin is your largest organ (unless you are my second boyfriend, Matthew-woof!).” The tips here are surprising helpful (“Truthfully, your skin needs less makeup than you think”) while still punctuated by Trixie’s brand of humor. In praise of “cosmeceuticals” (one of three things targeted for rescue in the event of a fire, the other two being a mint in-the-box Malibu Barbie and a can of Red Bull), Firkus draws from experience working at a makeup counter. In fact, she markets her own line of cosmetics available online and in selected stores.

Katya covers hair while Trixie stresses makeup. Katya’s attempts at humor seem more effortful, while Trixie takes a more natural, conversational approach. The workload of the book has been divided evenly between the two. Quick-on-her-feet Trixie keeps her from straying too far by heading her off with a zinger. Beloved for her bonkers sensibility, Katya often has little plastic hands and bird nests sticking out of her wigs, and wanders in her thoughts. Self-described as “a passive-aggressive introvert with no boundaries or shame,” neurotic McCook’s Katya plays the straight man to the more confident Firkus’ Trixie.

Katya embodies a fantasy of “the only high-class Russian whore,” as she raps in the bitch track “Read U Wrote U” – blonde hair, red lips, short dresses, and “a high-end deathtrap of a hooker shoe.”

Her signature makeup-giant, heavily-lidded panda eyes and extreme brown cheek contours-looks like something “from aisle seven of a terrifying toy store” as she was aptly introduced in the Pee-Wee’s Playhouse-inspired video for her sixties-meets-nineties bop “Yellow Cloud.” “Television and folk music star” Trixie (the thirty-year-old Firkus) styles herself after a vintage Barbie, often dressing in pink, yellow, or florals paired with “a chunky white go-go boot” and a big blonde bouffant.

Trixie and Kaya are the drag queen alter-egos of Brian Michael Firkus and Brian Joseph McCook, who first sashayed across television screens in 2015 on the seventh season of the reality competition series RuPaul’s Drag Race,Ĭapitalizing on the success of both their subsequent YouTube series UNHhhh and their 2017 Viceland series The Trixie & Katya Show in which the two sit in front of a green screen and riff on a given topic (such as “Jobs Before Drag,” “Worst Hookup,” and “Dating”), silliness made side-splitting by some really inventive editing, the two bring the magic of their chemistry from the small-screen to the written page in their first full length book.Īlternating between short essays and transcripts of their tangential conversations-dedicated to “all the ambitious female scientists out there”-Trixie and Katya weigh in with thoughts on “Beauty and Style,” “Homemaking,” and “Relationships.” In the tradition of great comedy duos that include Bill and Ted, Beevis and Butt-Head and Abbott and Costello, Trixie Mattel and Katya Zamolodchikova bring playfulness, nuttiness, and irreverent, off-the-wall humor to the lifestyle and self-help space with Trixie and Katya’s Guide to Modern Womanhood.
