Halifax Rainbow Encyclopedia: Shmam The Mam

Shmam The Mam

Shmommie is one of many Halifax DragQueens.

Shmommie

🦐 Queen of Chaos. Clown of the East Coast. Halifax’s Drag Diva and DIY Diva Pop Star. 🦐

she/they

Born out of glitter, spite, and an iPhone voice memo app, Shmommy didn’t enter the Halifax drag scene—she ruptured it. With a heart full of hooks and a mouth full of memes, she is what would happen if a pop star, your emotionally unavailable ex, and the girl from “Requiem for a Dream” had a baby—and raised it on Got2B glue and Twitter.

She’s a singer-songwriter (because you can cry and twerk at the same time), a drag artist (because she refuses to pick a gender, a genre, or a lane), and a performance menace whose shows are part cabaret, part emotional intervention, and always a little sticky. If you’ve seen her perform live, you probably laughed, cried, got secondhand horny, and questioned your sexuality. Congratulations. You’re a fan now.

🎵 Musical Chaos

Her hit single "Pi$$!" is a banger that sounds like if SOPHIE produced a voicemail breakdown. Think rage-pop with a splash of electro-c*nt.

She writes her own songs. She sings them live. She even makes her own music videos (and by “makes,” we mean commands reality to bend to her vision).

🎤 Live, Unfiltered, Unhinged

Shmommy has taken over venues like a virus in fishnets. She’s hosted “THE BEST DAMN SHOW!” at 2 Crows Brewing (and it was), stormed every drag open stage in the HRM, and regularly turns brunches into therapy sessions. She’s not a performer, she’s an event.

🏳️‍🌈 Queer Chaos Energy

Not just a performer, Shmommy is a pillar of the queer Halifax underground—the kind of pillar that’s covered in rhinestones and vibrating slightly. She organizes shows, uplifts baby queens, and brings weirdos together to scream, dance, and feel something again.

And she’s got Hot Gussy Summer energy all year round: 📲 https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9YiNCdJRKo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

📍Find Her. Follow Her. Survive Her.

Shmommy: the drag clown your mom warned you about, the pop princess the radio’s not ready for, and the emotional support rat of the East Coast. Add her to your gay Halifax canon—before she adds you to hers.
