(At Foozie’s birthday party on Friday, April 6, 1997) I got to the celebration early and pretty soon some friends pulled me into a back area and said “Perform something!” and there was this wig and dress lying there. I told them “Well, I don’t do that sort of thing. I don’t dress like a woman…” While they were trying to talk me into it another friend ran in and yelled “Do something and I mean fast! There are over four hundred people out there! You’d better hurry up Foozie!” I was dumbfounded, four hundred people!? So, I thought why not and replied, “That’s Miss Foozie to you!” and that’s how it all started.

Lucy Foozie (born April 6, 1960), better known as simply Miss Foozie, is a character from Chicago. Today, Miss Foozie is not a “drag queen”. She is a “personality.” Time Out Chicago calls her a “drag hostess and entertainer”, and Chicago Free Press has consistently awarded her The Pressie for “best female impersonator”.
