Arizona Brandy is often described as funny without being a “comedy queen” per se — she calls herself “a beauty queen who just happened to be funny.” She uses humor as part of her brand (her catchphrase “shot puno!” etc.) to disarm and connect. She embraces her love for alcohol openly (which is part of her persona) but seems to do so with a self-aware, lighthearted attitude. She is seen as someone who carries the weight of representing “undiscovered” drag, not just herself.
