FAMINE (25), AKA 'Famine the Supermodel', is Chicago's premier drag queen, who is 'large and in charge, but with a corset on'. Famine is the epitome of confidence, fashion, and feminine energy all rolled up into a fierce larger than life ball! Famine told Transformed: "Famine's look is very much a fashion version of a showgirl with a little princess twist! It's costuming, it's sewing, it's makeup, it's styling hair...she is a huge confidence ball". When Famine is not in her drag alter ego, she is Joey, who is the complete opposite of the supermodel. Joey admits that her style is very 'drowned out' and lacks the effort and confidence that Famine has an abundance of. Famine admits she soaks up all of the femininity, which leaves Joey not feeling great about her look and style. Joey has always wanted to burst out of the background and be seen as a feminine, stylish woman, but this has always been something she's struggled with. Joey said: "I identify as a trans woman, but I don't think my style reflects that. I'm way more confident in Famine attire". Today, with the help of makeup artist Dana, Joey will be stepping out from the shadows and proving that she can be a supermodel without Famine taking up all of the limelight! Famine's best friends, Darla and Hex, have always wanted to see the real and beautiful Joey, but will they love her transformation?

00:00I'm Chicago's little supermodel.
00:02It's costuming, it's sewing, it's makeup, it's styling hair.
00:06She's large and in charge, but with a corset on.
00:08My friends know me as Famine the supermodel, but today I'm saying bye to the alter ego.
00:12So get ready everyone for Joey the supermodel and star.
00:20Hi, I'm Famine.
00:22I'm Dana, good to meet you.
00:24I'm guessing we're doing a makeover today?
00:25We are.
00:26Well, come on right in.
00:27Super excited, thank you.
00:29I'm Famine the supermodel, I'm a Chicago drag queen.
00:32Famine's look is very much like a fashion version of a showgirl with like a little princess twist.
00:37She is a confidence ball.
00:39Famine kind of does soak up a little bit of my femininity.
00:42When I'm not Famine, I'm Joey.
00:44I'm just like kind of like your run of the mill person.
00:47I identify as a trans woman, but I definitely don't think my style reflects that.
00:51It's very drowned out.
00:53Joey is very like, it's kind of like a hermit.
00:56Like I don't, I don't try that hard.
00:58I am way more confident in Famine attire.
01:02Famine gets to soak up all the femininity, but today Joey's gonna come out and shine and show the world that she can be a feminine star.
01:08Are you excited to get glam?
01:11I kind of am.
01:12I'm always nervous about other people doing my makeup, but I'm sure you'll make me look amazing.
01:17Now Joey has never dressed like this, but I feel like it's gonna be weird but liberating.
01:22Glam it out.
01:23Okay, Victoria's Secret.
01:24Yeah.
01:25The model vibes.
01:26Okay, we can do that.
01:27Are we ready to turn Famine into Joey?
01:30I am.
01:31I am.
01:32To remove your gorgeous drag makeup, we're gonna use Clinique to take the day off.
01:42I was raised Catholic to my two parents in Maine.
01:45And I feel like life was very black and white.
01:49I always knew I was different growing up.
01:51I didn't really like to play sports.
01:53I always wanted to play in my two sisters outfits.
01:56And I think I didn't get the chance to do that because my parents were very afraid of what that meant for their first born.
02:02I came out as trans in 2019 during COVID because I couldn't do Famine anymore.
02:08Like I couldn't perform.
02:09I couldn't really go out in drag.
02:12Like we were all locked away.
02:14And I finally told my parents, I was like, I just want to be a woman too outside of drag.
02:20My parents were a little scared.
02:22But now I feel like I am accepted by at least my family and my close friends circle.
02:27I'm gonna start with your eyes.
02:31I'm gonna use the Urban Decay Eye Primer.
02:33This is my tried and true.
02:35I've been using this for 15 years.
02:37Has never failed me.
02:39Ever.
02:40I used the original formula.
02:41It is amazing.
02:42Can you tell me a little bit about why you wanted to transform today?
02:47I really wanted to transform today mostly because I wanted to see if I could get a level of glam
02:54that I get from Famine is Joey.
02:57As a trans person, especially when it does drag,
03:00I feel like sometimes I put a lot more effort into like the drag part.
03:04And I feel like I need to like just look at myself in the mirror being like,
03:08wow, this is like, we have no show.
03:11We're just looking beautiful for ourselves.
03:14I feel like Joey sometimes gets mistaken as a man just by the naked eye.
03:18And I feel like it kind of does cut at me at some point.
03:22And it like kind of like rips away this femininity that I feel like Famine gets a lot.
03:27I use this palette on literally every single client.
03:29This is the Viseart Neutral Max.
03:31Mm-hmm.
03:32I love a neutral eye.
03:33Oh my gosh.
03:34The best.
03:35This is the Mario palette.
03:37It shimmers everything.
03:39Joey doesn't go out with makeup because I feel like sometimes I do such glamour makeup as Famine.
03:44I feel like when I don't do this and I try to be Joey, I feel incomplete.
03:50A lot of trans women face like the ideology of like if you're not fully transitioned,
03:56which could be medication, surgeries, head to toe outfit, makeup,
04:01like people are just going to treat you as a man no matter what.
04:04And it's definitely tough because I want to be identified as a woman in my day to day life as Joey and my job.
04:11But sometimes I can't.
04:13I think our biggest struggle is always to be seen.
04:16These are the Ardell 421s.
04:19Tried and true.
04:20I'm going to have you look down for me.
04:23I'm going to go in with the Charlotte Tilbury Foundation.
04:29Have you been judged in public and online because of your style?
04:34I get like the occasional person that's just trying to be like a homophobe or trying to test the limits of what they can say to like provoke me.
04:42I've had a couple of instances where like people have like scream like transgender slurs at me.
04:48I've had people come up behind me and like follow me as I walk to the gig if I'm in like full drag.
04:53And I feel like those experiences like they shake me.
04:56Highlight you with the best highlighter of all time.
04:59Sure.
05:04Today I'm going to be revealing myself to my two roommates and friends, Hex and Dale.
05:08They both know me as Famine.
05:10We all have done drag together for a while.
05:13And I think they're going to really either enjoy it or they're going to think I look stupid.
05:17I think we're ready.
05:27Are you ready?
05:28As much as I can be.
05:30Three, two, one.
05:33Okay.
05:34This is crazy.
05:35I never thought that I would look like Lana Del Rey.
05:39It's kind of giving Lana Del Rey.
05:40Yeah.
05:41With the brown and the white.
05:45I love it.
05:46I like, I mean the makeup is probably my favorite part of it.
05:50Just because like I have eyebrows now again and like it is subtle.
05:55This is probably like the least amount of makeup I've worn.
05:58Yeah.
05:59So I'm like, okay.
06:00The wig is wiggy.
06:01I think I look pretty.
06:02I think I look soft.
06:03Yeah.
06:04I think you did a really good job of bringing out my soft features.
06:07How do you think your friends are going to react?
06:08There's like two ways they can react right now.
06:10So either they're going to make fun of me or we're going to make this a productive moment
06:17and we're going to celebrate the fact that we tried something new.
06:20But I feel like it might be the first one.
06:22I definitely feel that there's a night and day difference between Joey and Salmon.
06:26That's two complete different people personality wise.
06:31And I'm excited to see more continuity between the two.
06:35Joey on like a day to day doesn't like dress up.
06:39I've never seen Joey up in like full lady geese.
06:44Like really trying to be passing.
06:46So it will be interesting to see like what that would look like for her today.
06:50Come on Deva.
06:56She's femme.
06:58Very beautiful.
06:59It's like a Monet.
07:01The more I look at it the better it's getting.
07:03The eye is soft.
07:04I like the soft eye.
07:05Who kind of teeth?
07:06Oh God.
07:07It's really great.
07:08You know Deva I'm always going to be honest with you.
07:11That's one of the pillars of our friendship.
07:13Got it.
07:14Got it.
07:15It's interesting.
07:16I've never seen you in this light before.
07:18I would say I like the eye.
07:20Okay.
07:21And we'll leave it at that.
07:22She definitely looks more like feminine.
07:24Sure Deva you did so good.
07:27We're proud of you.
07:29So what did you think of their reaction?
07:30They were a lot nicer than I thought they were going to be.
07:33They complimented some things in the makeup but I definitely I can see what they didn't like.
07:40What I've learned from this experience is I can tone it down.
07:43I don't need to wear so much makeup.
07:45And I can also like try softer versions of myself.
07:48But most importantly like I think I got a good experience of a search for femininity with Joey.
07:54And I feel like it wasn't just all feminine focused.
