Von B. revealed her identity as the performer behind the Evil Queen in December 2025, which fueled rumors that she was no longer employed by Disneyland. Those rumors began circulating in October 2025, when fans noticed her apparent absence from the park and social media posts suggested a change. She has now confirmed that she was let go, bringing clarity to the situation.

Speaking to PEOPLE, Von B. said playing the Evil Queen was a dream opportunity, particularly because she was able to put her own spin on a character she felt had not been especially popular before her videos gained traction online. She described it as an honor to portray a Disney villain with a more comedic edge, balancing wickedness with humor to entertain guests.

According to Von B., her time at Disneyland spanned ages 18 to 26, during which she also portrayed characters including Maleficent, Agatha Harkness, and Lady Tremaine. While she expressed gratitude for the experience and the recognition it brought, she noted that the role also came with challenges, detailing some of the personal and professional struggles she faced during her tenure, as reported by PEOPLE.
