BIO:
Also known as Michael shrives, Michelle McCausland captured the crown of Miss Gay Missouri at the SoCo Club in Columbia with his Broadway caliber Anything Goes - capping off a 30 year quest for the crown. Michelle first competed at MGM in 1983; was first alternate in 1988 and never gave up on his dream. Indeed Michelle McCausland is proof-positive that talent is ageless. A St. Louis institution, Michael/Michelle headlined most every drag show cast since 1982. He is also remembered for successfully challenging the city of St. Louis cross dressing ban following his 1984 arrest while performing at Uncle Marvin’s. The Mount Vernon, Illinois native is a former Missouri Entertainer of the Year and Missouri Continental Elite. Michael/Michelle was an award winning interior designer and active in the LGBT community and MCCGSL church and choir. St. Louis lost one of its drag icons and trailblazers on November 2020 due to COVID-19. Rest in peace, Michelle.
