She's usually in the middle of all the drama.

Thalia constantly says that she is the best makeup artist at the salon, which definitely rubbed some of her co-workers the wrong way. "I would like to think I get along with everyone at the salon, but I know I don’t, I know deep down," she revealed in an interview with VH1. "There’s a lot of people that hate on me, but what can I do? I'm not a 100 dollar bill, not everyone's gonna love me."

She first earned fame as a Kim Kardashian lookalike.

In a 2015 interview with the Mirror, Thalia revealed that she is transgender and she had spent about $100,000 in plastic surgery in order to transform herself into the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star. She admitted that she had gotten a boob job and a fat transfer to her butt so that she could copy off of Kim's enviable curves.

"I also get collagen in my lips every six months — it makes me feel better about myself. I love being mistaken for Kim," she said. "I’d like to be famous for who I am, but why not?" Well, now she's making a name for herself as a makeup artist and as a reality star!

Be sure to catch Thalia on the next episode of Beauty Bar, airing Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on VH1.
