Tara Hoot's Road to 'FAME!'
I was born in the 'High Land' of Indiana, Terre Haute, and spent my formative years in the 'Jewel of East Central Indiana', New Castle! The Hoosier State couldn't contain my glamour, so off to the East Coast I went, landing with a thud in Washington, DC! I'm a kind and campy drag queen entertainer and I can't wait to see you soon!
