Jade Jolie began doing drag from the University Club in Gainesville, Florida.

He then derived his stage name from the Mortal Combat Character and Angelina Jolie. After that, he auditioned for Drag Race’s fifth season and finished the season at the eighth position.

Before Drag Race, Jade used to work as an adult performer under the alias Tristan Everhard. He even featured in volume 213 of the porn website Showguys in 2007.

Following her appearance on Drag Race, she found herself in the Pandora Boxx’s music video for Knew You Seemed Shady! on July 23, 2013. The same year she had a Twitter fight against Mimi Imfurst, which presumably occurred after the introduction made by Imfurst on Jolie at Logo’s NYC Pride event. A judge, Michelle Visage, had to step up to end the conflict. She also appeared on Alaska’s Snaked music video on December 24, 2018.

Then in September 2021, there came an announcement of her participation in the fourth season of The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula. Soon after that, she publically apologized for her Nazi role in a pornographic film during her adult performer days. In October, she will perform at Dragathon: Halloween Night Spooktacular.
