Career

In 2022, she competed on season 14 of RuPaul's Drag Race. She performed an original song routine for the opening episode's talent show and won the challenge, which came with a cash prize of $5,000. In her routine, she used a milk carton with former Drag Race judge Merle Ginsberg depicted as a missing person. In the fifth episode, it was announced that Kornbread had to withdraw from the competition after rolling her ankle the week prior, ultimately coming in 11th Place. At the finale, she was announced as Season 14's Miss Congeniality, having been chosen by her fellow contestants, and won a $10,000 cash prize. Kornbread, along with fellow RuPaul's Drag Race alumni Ginger Minj and Kahmora Hall, appeared in the 2022 film Hocus Pocus 2.

She has appeared in videos with Brandon Rogers and Fine Brothers Entertainment, and has been featured in Thrillist.

Personal life
Kornbread is a transgender woman. She is close friends with Kerri Colby, a fellow Drag Race contestant and trans woman. Kornbread has said of Colby, "She's literally walked me through so much of my transition that no one understands how much she's done for me personally. She's not my drag mom, but I tell her she's definitely partly my trans mom."

Kornbread is the drag daughter of Calypso Jeté Balmain who won the first season of Legendary with the House of Balmain. Her "drag sister" is Hershii LiqCour-Jeté, who competed on the sixteenth season of Drag Race.

On September 26, 2022, Kornbread announced via an Instagram post that she had been diagnosed with an early stage adenocarcinoma, a type of intestinal cancer, and used her experience to raise awareness of the disease.
