ABOUT
DIET ZHUZH™️ is a queer, corporate satire, bi-monthly rave. Established in 2021 we mean every word of our company's hit slogan, “Serious Taste. Serious Business”. Our raves are the business meetups for the development of our very real, definitely available in stores, energy beverage: DIET ZHUZH™️. Our mission is to poke fun at corporate and brand America while uplifting our employees (party goers), mostly so they don’t try to unionize. We achieve this through immersive gags and multi-sensory experiences, such as hilarious joke visuals, merchandise, office decor, best uniform walk off, employee of the month awards, and various business-themed nights, including: Going Public, the IRS Audit, and Corporate Pride. Our many music seminars by both resident and acclaimed guest DJs are also no joke. Directed by our lead producer and She.E.O., BABES The DJ, let DIET ZHUZH™️ take you on the business journey you never asked for, definitely don't need, and are absolutely thirsting for, whether you knew it or not.

They began their musical journey by editing show tracks and MC’ing dance parties while touring Australia with Sydney’s premier drag agency. In 2017 BABES moved to Brooklyn and transitioned their heels to headphones, keeping their passion for camp and music alive. Starting with a weekly disco party in 2019 (Dirty Disco) after many years, they now have an agent, gigs in demand around the country and of course She.E.O for the NYC branch of Diet Zhuzh.

They have been the manager of "Funny Business" (or sometimes known as "the girl") for the Misfortune 500 company Diet Zhuzh for 12 years, plus or minus a decade.

TINY TIGER
DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY

Starting in DIY raves and film festivals, she has produced Brooklyn's hottest clubs since 2015, pioneered Lead Lighting Role at Elsewhere Brooklyn, and exhibited art in the one gay museum possible. As our staff photographer they have seen the Do's and oh no Don't You Dare Diva's of corporate business first hand and they can tell you: you're doing fine sweaty. When not snapping pictures in studio or at queer spaces, they are often found creating, breathing a lot for long periods of time, stretching and not taking anything too too seriously.You can also find them at Pheromone on the third Thursday of the month and various DIY parties in NYC and beyond!
WHO GIRL
CO-FOUNDER & ANGEL INVESTOR
Who is WHO GIRL? A Mom. A mom who only lets her children have DIET ZUZH. When WHO GIRL helped create this silly company, DIET ZHUZH cost just 30 cents a can. Now, with her extremely unhelpful support, DIET ZHUZH is costing the planet a lot more than that. When she takes herself seriously, WHO GIRL curates shit at Lincoln Centre (Cultivating Access Ecologies series, Summer for the City) is an actual artist (United States Artist Award 2022), and makes noise for artists’ economic security (Artist-Organizer at Creatives Rebuild New York).
