The Hollywood Reporter caught up with the entertainer at the tail-end of her whirlwind day in Washington
A star was born on day one of the House Intelligence Committee's public impeachment probe hearings: Drag queenturned every head on Capitol Hill when she strolled up the steps and into the Longworth House Office Building in a red latex dress and blonde bouffant to cover the historic event for a new tech startup.
The 31-year-old Myles — real name Joe D'Angio — is a full-time drag queen from New Jersey who performs at a number of gay bars in New York City. She was scouted at one of them on Sunday night for the gig of a lifetime. So let me get this straight. You are a journalist? I am a drag queen. I'm an entertainer. I'm a comedian and a singer and writer. I perform standup comedy and have written stage shows. I was hired to go down as a kind of entertainer/journalist for a startup called Happs TV. It's basically an open source, live-streaming TV network online. It's all done through mobile apps. Anyone who's a contributor will have the opportunity to report on whatever news is happening in front of them.
I was so tired. I got into D.C. very late last night and had about an hour sleep and had to get up and get ready to be out the door this morning. I guess I was a bit nervous in the car on the way there. Because I knew the gravity of the situation, which is that it was the impeachment hearings. I wanted to do the best job I could, which was give accurate information but in a light, humorous way.
