Charleston Entertainers
(Page 2)
Martina Deserae
My name is Martina Dezarea'. I have been a Professional Entertainer for 16 years. I currently live in Charleston WV, where I work every Thursday night at Trax Night Club. I'd like to thank Roger L. staff and cast for all there love and support over the past 5 years. I'm also a cast member at Club Utopia in Parkersburg WV, where i work once a month, Thanks to Momma Love,and my sis, Lucy.
I'm originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina. Before coming to West Virginia my lover of 16 years William and Myself moved from Knoxville, TN where we had lived for 12 years. While in Knoxville I was Show Director of 3 different nightclubs over my 12 year span of living there.
Upon moving to West Virginia, I entered my first West Virginia pageant in Huntington. I was crowned Ms. Gay Tri- State. I went on to enter a Prelim at Trax Nightclub for the 2002 Ms. West Virginia Pride Pageant. Later that year I was Crowned Ms. West Virginia Pride 2002.
After winning Miss WV Pride i got involved with Rainbow Pride of WV lnc. I'm now the vice present of Rainbow Pride of WV lnc. and 3rd year as co chairman of the Pride Pageants Subcommittee.
I'd like to thank my two WV Daughters,: Coko Catoure Dezarea and Tearah Dezarea for being so good to momma & daddy too. I'd also like to thank all my friends and fans for making WV feel like home, even though people still ask me where I'm from.
I have entertained up and down the east coast and abroad. Along the way I have captured many different state and regional titles: former Miss Gay Tri-States(WV) And a former Miss West Virginia Pride. I enjoy traveling, pageants, entertaining, meeting new people and making great friends.
Alexis Karmichael
My name is Alexis Karmichael. I have been a professional female impersonator/entertainer for ten years. I got my start at the Shamrock in Bluefield, WV. I entertained in Bluefield for four years, where I was crowned Miss Shamrock, 2001.
Then the Shamrock went out of business, I traveled to Roanoke, VA and resided there for a year and commuted to New Beginnings in Johnson City, TN where I met Martina Deserea, who brought me to Charleston, WV, where I reside now for five years.
I have been crowned Miss Trax Pride 2002-2004, Miss Aries WV 2002-2004, Miss Cancer Kentucky 2003, and I am the current reigning Miss Zodiac 2007-2008. I was 1st runner up in Miss Pride of WV in 2006. I now perform at Trax Nightclub, which is my home club. I also travel to the Stonewall in Huntington, WV, The Hideaway in Beckley, WV and basically any place that I can show my talents.
I am very grateful and appreciative all of the opportunities that I have been given. A lot of these have come from boss Roger Legg, the owner of Trax. He has created numerous opportunities for me to express my talents and gifts, which in turn helps me to inspire the other entertainers such as, Christina Shortcake, Akasha Laprae, Keili Kincaid, Chantel Laprae, Tressa B, Morgan and my newest daughter, Jazmine Rae Karmichael.
As these entertainers progress and rise to what I like to call "Divadom", it shows me not only are they dedicated to the game, it also shows I still have what it takes to be dedicated and master and dominate my passion.
My name is Jessica St. James. I have been entertaining on and off for the past 3 years @ The Broadway. I am the proud drag daughter of MISS MICHELLE ST. JAMES. It was an honor and privilege for Michelle to take me under her wing and teach me so much. I have watched and learned so much from Michelle, Synamon, and the rest of the Broadway Divas. Well you guys should come out to the Broadway and see the divas and you might just catch me there.
