Jade Jolie is the stage name of Joshua Green, an American drag queen and Taylor Swift impersonator
known for competing in the fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race and the fourth season of The Boulet Brothers' Dragula.
Jolie is featured in Swift’s “You Need to Calm Down” music video and performed alongside Taylor Swift
during the opening act of the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards and received two awards with Swift, including Video of the Year. After Swift won the Video of the Year Award, presenter John Travolta confused Jolie for Swift herself and attempted to hand her the award.
Green was born on November 2, 1986 and raised in Ft. Myers, Florida. He started doing drag at the University Club in Gainesville, Florida. His drag mom is Dana Douglas and her drag father is Bob Taylor. The name Jade Jolie is a combination of the Mortal Kombat character Jade and Angelina Jolie.
