Cornell Crawford
The MRS. Cornell Crawford: Cornell Crawford Started Performing out of necessity, one of her dear friends was a bartender at the local gay bar and one night thugs opend the bar and shot in to the bar, hitting this bartender friend, a few weeks later some folks at the bar decided to throw a benefit drag show to help pay for some of the medical bills. They asked my dad to perform the song "Cornell Crawford" by KT Auslin which he was known for performing as a boy out of drag, he said ok but what do I call myself. They said Cornell Crawford, his responce was that's a boy's name, and they said ok then, be the Mrs. Cornell Crawford. He went on to have a successful career for three years making a living on performing 3 nights a week in the Virginia Beach area. He now comes out occasionally to help me raise money for a good cause.
