Crybaby. She's a skank. No. I love Crybaby so much. Crybaby is a bombastic, in-your-face, flirty, horrifying clown. Like... I always tell people that Crybaby is at the apex of everything that's scary, sexy, and stupid. Like, there's always an element of horror. But there's also, I don't take it too seriously. There's always, like, a wink to it. You know, there's some irony.
There's something to it. So that's who she is. I love her. I love the slut. She's fun.
This is Crybaby, a spooky or horror-themed drag queen.
When I'm in drag, I go by Crybaby. Out of drag, I go by Juhasz.
Juhasz is 35 years old, and they live in New York City.
After I made the decision to move out here, I would not stop talking about the fact that I was moving to New York. And that 27-year-old version of myself really romanticized the artist's struggle.
How are you feeling about the artist's struggle now?
You know, it's not as romantic as I thought it was going to be.

Chapter 2: What inspired Juhasz to become a drag queen?
I really don't want to have to do that because I already have these tools and just it seems so wasteful to buy another pair right now when I –
money is tight and I just I know they're here so my game plan is tomorrow to go through and clean up my my drag space and everything and and figure it out you know but um I ended up pivoting from styling wigs to finishing up a set of nails that I'm making for this number um And they look so fierce. It's exactly the kind of detail that I love to add to Crybaby's looks.
They are stiletto, they're rhinestones, they're UV reactive. They look just so good, and I'm so excited to wear them. Um, and thankfully for like the materials to make those, um, the rhinestones I already had in my, uh, my crafting kit. So that was set and ready to go. I got those a while back.
Um, super cheap, but yeah, the nail kit though, that was a gift from one of my best friends back home in Las Vegas. Um, I told her that I wanted to start making my own nails for drag because commissioning them was just so freaking expensive. My first set of nails, I think it was like 50 bucks. Yeah, I just put those to work and I made these super awesome nails. They look great.
It's good that I have... That and the track for my number done so I can spend the rest of the week just really focusing on the hair, finishing the garment, and working on my choreography. Because we're getting to the wire. We're less than a week away from...
the show, and, you know, it's a lot of work for, like, 20 seconds of cheer, but, you know, it's impactful, and the audience will remember me, and I'm here to entertain at the end of the day, and it's worth it.
After paying to take the train to meet someone in the city, Juhasz's total for day one was $24.27. Okie dokie. Audio diary day two.
I do have to come clean about something. I have to be honest. After I sent in my recording last night, I ended up taking an edible. I'm an edible girly. It's something that I like to have at the end of some particularly rough days or... I'm just a very anxious person, especially right now with this huge career change that's happening and all of the financial uncertainties.
I felt called to melt into my bed for a bit. And melt I did. However, the munchie gods, Hungar, demanded service. So I ended up going to get some snacks for me and my roommate last night.
