In 2012, Icunt became one of the 14 drag queens to compete during the fifth season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” on Logo TV, which he won the children’s TV show-themed main challenge. He finished the competition in fourth place, and sang the “We Are the World”-inspired song entitled “Can I Get an Amen?”, the proceeds of which went to the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center. Four years later, he would become a part of the second season of “RuPaul’s All Stars Drag Race”, in which he was a runner-up position alongside Katya Zamolodchikova.

For his personal life, not much is known of Detox’s romantic relationships, if any. Matthew was in a car accident in 2009 that required him to have his forehead reconstructed.
