BenDeLaCreme was raised in Connecticut by his parents, but when he was 13 years old, his mother passed away from cancer, and he subsequently had a lot of problems with depression, and apparently started pursuing a career as a drag queen to overcome that. While he attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, from which he graduated with a BFA degree in Painting, he also began performing at local gay nightclubs.

So, his professional career began in 2002, when he made his drag debut appearance under his stage name BenDeLaCreme in drag revues at the nightclubs. He also began performing with the Chicago Kings troupe, all of which marked the beginning of his net worth.

Subsequently he started creating his own shows, in which he combined dancing, singing and burlesque performing, and became a part of The Atomic Bombshells burlesque troupe. In the mid-2000s, he also began working as a teacher at the Academy of Burlesque in Seattle. During that time, he collaborated with performers from the Seattle burlesque community, such as Jinkx Monsoon. Soon, he established his own theatrical production company called DeLouRue Presents, which creates various shows including his own show “Freedom Fantasia”, and another one entitled “Homo For The Holidays”, both of which added a considerable amount to his net worth.
