If there was ever a sign that a performer doesn't take themselves or their act too seriously, it's the fact that Caldwell Tidicue refers to herself as 'Bob the Drag Queen' when she puts on her outfits and makeup. She's outright hilarious, proving herself time and again in comedy scenes during the eighth season of 'Drag Race,' which she inevitably won comfortably. She's particularly gifted at impressions, although there's far more to her act than just that.
Viewers of the eighth season tuned in every week to watch her repeated cat-fights with Derrick Barry through their fingers, but ultimately, she and the Britney impressionist were able to put their differences behind them and come to a truce. She's friendly with several of the competitors from the show, going so far as to temporarily fill in for Katya on 'The Trixie and Katya' show while Katya took a leave of absence.
