Lushious Massacr

Lushious Massacr (born 1 October 1988) is a Mexican-American drag queen, professional makeup artist, and social media personality. She won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction or Reality Program in 2022 for her work on the reality television series We're Here.

Life and career Born Martin De Luna Jr., Massacr is the eldest of four brothers and a native of Brownsville, Texas, born to Mexican immigrant parents. Before pursuing her drag career, she worked in concessions at Cinemark movie theaters.

At age 19, she met drag mother Divina Garza, who helped her to develop confidence and begin exploring drag performance; the two made videos together around Brownsville.

Makeup artistry Massacr began her professional career working as a makeup artist for MAC Cosmetics. In 2019, she was selected as a member of the Sephora Squad, the beauty retailer's influencer program.

Her work on the HBO reality series We're Here, where she served as makeup artist for Shangela, earned her the Emmy Award for Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction or Reality Program in 2022. She shared this award with Jeremy Damion Austin and Tyler Devlin for the "Kona, Hawaii" episode. Shangela was sufficiently impressed by Massacr's work that she subsequently brought her on tour, where Massacr was present for engagements with figures including Vice President Kamala Harris and recording artist Bad Bunny.

In 2026, Massacr was featured on the cover of PAPER magazine. She received a standalone cover and was also included on a group cover with John Waters, Margaret Cho, Chrishell Stause, Symone, Grant Knoche, Eli (musician), Mad Tsai, Madison Bailey, and Alicia Creti.

Social media Massacr operates a YouTube channel and TikTok account featuring a series called "Dragvestigations", which she launched in 2024 with an inaugural video filmed at DD's Discounts in Brownsville.

Activism The topics of immigration and immigrant rights are frequent mentions of activism in Massacr's content. In 2019, Massacr created a political commentary video at the Mexico–United States border wall in Brownsville, using makeup application as a form of protest against the Trump administration's immigration policies and the declaration of a national emergency at the border.

LGBTQ rights, specifically trans rights, are a major focus of Massacr's advocacy. In 2019, she commented on the case of Camila Díaz Córdova, a Salvadoran trans woman who was murdered in her home country after being deported from the U.S. following a rejected asylum petition. In October 2025, Massacr was honored by the Los Angeles LGBT Center at its annual Queerceañera celebration. She has been recognized as part of the broader LGBTQ+ advocacy community in the Rio Grande Valley.

In May 2026, Massacr served as the keynote speaker at the 21st Annual Pride Grad Celebration at California State University, Los Angeles, hosted by the university's Gender & Sexuality Resource Center and the Cross Cultural Center. In June 2026, Masscar was a featured performer at the OUTLOUD Music Festival at WeHo Pride.

Personal life Massacr is the matriarch of the Haus of Massacr, a drag family in which she serves as drag mother to Mija Massacr and drag grandmother to Miz Tonz Massacr.
