* OldShame: On an episode of ''[=UNHhhh=]'', she reflected on the runway look that first got her eliminated from ''Drag Race'' and admitted it's definitely something she wouldn't do in this day and age. She and Katya were also similarly embarrassed watching their video for "Tan With U" from that episode.

Trixie is perhaps best known for appearing on the seventh season of ''Series/RuPaulsDragRace'', where she finished in sixth place after a prior elimination four episodes earlier. She later returned to the series as a contestant for its third ''All Stars'' season in 2018 where she was ultimately crowned the winner.

Despite her relative lack of screentime on the show, Trixie quickly became one of that season's breakout stars, which led to her (and fellow season seven alumnus Creator/{{Katya}}) hosting the web series ''WebVideo/UNHhhh'' on WOW Presents.

In conjunction with her drag career, Trixie is also a musician, having released her debut studio album ''Two Birds'' in May 2017. The release was a commercial success, especially compared to the musical output of other ''Drag Race'' alumni, peaking as high as #2 on the iTunes US album chart the week it became available. In 2019, she launched her own makeup brand called Trixie Cosmetics which emphasizes bright colors and toy-like packaging designs.

This would eventually become the start of her Website/YouTube career in late 2019, co-starring with Creator/{{Katya}} on Netflix's "I Like to Watch", starting regular, weekly updates on her own personal channel, and a podcast with Katya named The Bald and The Beautiful on 2020.

As part of her drag career, Trixie is also a musician, having released her debut studio album ''Two Birds'' in May 2017. The release was a commercial success, especially compared to the musical output of other ''Drag Race'' alumni at the time, peaking as high as #2 on the iTunes US album chart the week it became available. She has since released three more albums and an EP, getting to collaborate with artists Music/MichelleBranch, Music/OrvillePeck, Shakey Graves and Lavender Country.

* ArtEvolution: Her makeup style has slowly shifted throughout the years. While maintaining her Barbie-like color pallette, exaggerated proportions and almost paint-by-number contrasts, she's grown to shy away from hyper-saturated colors, draw more geometrical shapes and balance her application more successfully. This shift aligns itself with her taking more reference from 60's fashion for her costuming, to great effect, rather than 90s to present day country and hyperpop references.
** Her music style has evolved from straightforward bluegrass country, into Dolly Parton inspired americana country, into 60s inspired alternative rock. This evolution has followed and corresponded with her aesthetics updates.



* UncannyValleyMakeUp: Purposely invoked, she claims she paints herself not for the back row, but for the check cashing place down the street. Her rather cartoonishly heavy style of make-up has very much become her signature style, which she actually ''toned down'' for her time filming Season 7. Zig-zagged however, in that while she maintains the massive proportions on her brow crease and her contour depth, she's modified some of her style as she's gained more mainstream success. This includes using more neutral tones, toning down her blush, and getting rid of her doll-like blue contacts. In effect, Trixie has managed to soften her makeup relative to what it used to be around Season 7 of Drag Race... despite it still being cartoonish by comparison even to the vast majority of other drag queens.

* ChildHater: Trixie is very vocal about her distaste of kids and MoralGuardians who claim to love them, yet is also aware of the irony of her bubbly pink and seemingly innocent Barbie aesthetic attracting those very groups she hates. In her own words, she didn’t get into drag to fraternize with children.
