PAPER's AskMrMickey remembers the 'fabulous downtown' star.
Wooden was born in Brooklyn and started doing drag in 1989. His alter ego, Mona Foot, became a superstar, known for squeezing his muscle-bound physique into sexy dresses and lip synching to songs like"I'm Every Woman." Mona's signature Wonder Woman number always brought the house down at Wigstock, the long-running seminal yearly drag festival hosted by Lady Bunny.
Wooden would perform to the '70s TV show theme song in a strapless superhero ensemble, decades ahead of Gal Gadot's current Wonder Woman franchise., Wooden told journalist Michael Musto,"I really became intoxicated once I did Wonder Woman at Union Square Park. I could see the power of it. No one saw that coming. To be not only a superhero, to be Black and a man. I didn't realize at the time I was feminine.
