Last month, we profiled Joe Hoselton aka Jenna Skyy and his mom, Carmen — a supportive mother of her drag diva son. Well, Carmen wasn't the only parent in the Hoselton household who thinks Joe does a great job in a dress. Proud papa Jim Hoselton could not be more pleased by his boy's skill at becoming a girl. We asked Jim to weigh in on what it's like having a son (Joe) who becomes a de facto daughter (Jenna) for crowds of drag fans.

When is the first time you saw Joe turn into Jenna? It was at Gay Bingo. I knew he did it and saw some photos before, but that was the first time I saw him perform.
What do you think of Joe's drag show? He's talented. When he was 5 years old, he had never been onstage before, but someone got sick who was supposed to talk [in front of a crowd]. Joe got up and took over and has been a natural when you put the lights on him ever since. So he didn't really surprise me that he would [do Jenna so well].
