The article reads, “Glamour and over the top beauty are Alexye’us Paris’ calling cards. She’s been doing drag since 1997 and can be seen weekly at Barcode and the Houston Eagle. Paris, who could be considered a pageant queen, has won many titles during her two-plus decades years of performing. She’s also smart and funny on social media.”Paris is director of entertainment at two Houston clubs, Eagle Houston and Club Morena’s. She has won Miss Gay Texas US of A at Large, Miss Essence International Plus and Miss Gay Houston US of A pageants.
