Bambi Banks
Chicago-based drag performer known for soulful, avant-garde performance and glamour, formerly of Shea Couleé's Maison Couleé drag family.
Bambi Banks is a Chicago-based drag performer widely regarded as one of the most exciting talents in the Midwest scene. Bambi rose to prominence as a member of Maison Couleé, the drag house founded by RuPaul's Drag Race Season 9/All Stars 5 icon Shea Couleé, previously performing under the name Bambi Banks-Couleé alongside sisters Kenzie Couleé and Khloe Couleé. Their performance style has been described as a mesmerizing fusion of grace, power, and pure talent, marked by avant-garde looks, flawless makeup, and a soulful, passionate delivery that has helped redefine what audiences expect from Chicago drag. On September 4, 2025, all three daughters publicly disowned Shea as their drag mother; Bambi dropped the Couleé surname to perform simply as Bambi Banks. NOT a Canada's Drag Race alumna.
