Private life: they are men dressed as men (extravagant, fierce); never wake up already made-up, tucked, wigged.

Sunny Day (Cedric Billon) is the name of a former member of the drag house. He was Ruby Bijou's ex; he was kicked out, and Madame Blanche beat the crap out of him when Ruby confessed to being raped by him. You don't mess with Madame Blanche's girls, even if you're part of the group. The drag house never spoke of it again, but since green, complementary to red, was Sunny's color, the use of green became prohibited in the drag house.

A drag house is an alternative, chosen family and artistic collective within LGBTQIA+ culture, led by experienced mentors known as a house "mother" or "father." It serves as a crucial support system and safe haven, offering young or emerging performers mentorship, emotional care, and a sense of belonging. Members share a common house surname, collaborate on creative performances, and compete together in ballroom culture to showcase their artistry, fashion, and talent.
