Billy King
Despite small town beginnings Billy has always had the dream to be on stage. And with the help of some great brothers he has done that. ‘Sharing the stage with these guys never gets old and I wouldn’t give it up for the world’ Billy recently hold W magazine. He has come along way, venturing into comedy and really putting himself out there. Billy never shies away from a challenge and is always willing to try something new. He`s a charmer and a flirt, a real ladies man. ‘I love women, what can I say? Its in my blood’ he recently told rolling stone. Billy started his journey in front of a crowd of 40 or so people (half of which were friends.) It will be exciting to see where his acts go next. And after performing in several sold out venues its hard to not be taken aback by the success of the dukes.
Billy has always been around, just waiting to come out for me. There has always been a reason for him. When he started performing it was my way to control the reaction of others. His ‘maleness’ was safe to me. When the suit and tie came on I could feel like I had some control over how people saw me and that they were seeing exactly what I wanted them to. With time, and performing, all the attributes that were Billy slowly worked themselves into me and everyday life. Its hard to see where I end and Billy begins anymore. I`ve learned to find a balance now. There isn’t a need to go crazy or over the top with his lifestyle. He is a part of my choices and decisions as much as I am in his. Its a delicate balance.
Billy`s alter ego, Cory, is a customer service agent with a bank and spends her free time trying to live life to its fullest. An avid fan of music and the outdoors, Cory is always busy with one plan or the other. A part… part time student she studies a little bit of everything, with plans to be in wood work in the future. She shares her life with her two cats (like every good lesbian should.) When not working and Kinging she saves babies from burning buildings and cats from trees.
