| Info | Born Aug. 2, 1959 in Miami, Florida, Victoria was raised in a Bible-believing, piano-playing, gymnastic home with no TV. Her dad was a gym coach, so she competed in gymnastics from ages 5-18.
She attended Florida Bible College; received a gymnastic scholarship to Furman University, and then attended Auburn University for one year. She ended up in Hollywood, CA via summer stock in Birmingham, where she met Johnny Crawford (from the T.V. show The Rifleman) who promptly put her in his night club act and sent her a “one-way ticket to the show-biz capital of Hollywood.”
Supporting herself as a cigarette girl, a typist at the American Cancer Society, and a waitress at a retirement hotel, Victoria performed standup comedy for 2 years until The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson put her act–which consisted of her doing a handstand while reciting poetry–on national TV.
Following her 20 appearances with Johnny, she starred in many movies and TV shows, most notably six seasons on Saturday Night Live.
In 1991 Victoria re-united with her high school sweetheart, Paul, who’s a police helicopter pilot.
These days Victoria is immensely busy fighting for America. She first ‘came out of the Christian Conservative closet’ when she created an instantly-viral video with her singing and playing ukulele to “There’s a Communist Living in the White House!” Some of the lyrics are:
“Why aren’t people shocked or something, why aren’t people up in arms?
Does anyone read history or see red flags or hear alarms?
The streets are filled with deaf and dumb as I squeak like a mouse,
‘There’s a communist living in the White House!’”
Victoria has written articles for several online websites including World Net Daily and Patriot Update. She is also becoming well known for her impromptu “flip camera videos”.
“My boss at Vision to America said, ‘Victoria, we want videos. People don’t want to read all the time,’” Victoria says. “I’m thinking, do you know how hard it is to come up with a funny, interesting video every week? I mean, I’m a human being. On SNL, I’d write two things a year! But he said ‘just do videos, man-on-the-street type stuff’—so I’m having a lot of fun with it.”
One of Victoria’s recent videos from Occupy Wall Street went viral, appearing on The Blaze, Breitbart and other media sources.
In addition to speaking at Tea Party events and her work with the PolitiChicks, Victoria still appears on-stage and on-camera occasionally, “in between driving my teenager Aubrey to school and cheer practice and playing with my first grandchild, Ever Grace who was born to my daughter Scarlet and son-in-law Brandon last Christmas. Brandon is a musician and a pastor,” Victoria says, all in one breath.
