The Lady is a Tramp
Name and age: Ivana Tramp
Occupation: Entertainer/celebrity female impersonator.
Spotted: Saturday night drag show at Hungdinger.
Project runway: Who would have suspected that someone originally from Lubbock could become fabulous as so many different women — without being a woman herself? Raised in Arlington, Ivana has delivered flawless and captivating performances for 17 years, channeling the likes of Tina Turner and Taylor Dayne.
More than just many pretty faces: A giving person by nature, Ivana contributes her energies to many charities, including Hospice, AIDS Arms’ LifeWalk, Resource Center Dallas and the Food Pantry. When not onstage in North Texas, she loves to travel — and perform — across the U.S.

I love my sister Ivana Tramp …loka
“Who would have suspected that someone originally from Lubbock could become fabulous as so many different women — without being a woman herself?” REALLY??? If I’m not mistaken, I believe Ivana lives her life as a female, and has done so for a number of years. A statment like that could be perceived as offensive to some, and not just in the trans community. It’s almost as bad as telling a trans woman, “You’re so beautiful! You look like a real girl.” Just sayin’…
