Lawd have mercy Vain Baby. The impact of seeing poorly done drag by Westley Snipes stays with you. Trust me, I know b/c I saw the drag movie he did again while turning through the channels on cable and it turned my stomach ill. Some people didn't recognize or appreciate the true genius of Rupaul.


nod RuPaul was the shit to me! sexy


yeah but Snipes deserves props...rupaul isnt really "drag" to me....well, he can be..but he has always come off "too much woman" to be drag....well, when he is in "supermodel" mode...i've seen pre-supermodel rupaul and that was draq....


i think all three, patrick swayze, john l and wesley snipes did a wondeful job of embodying draq queens..sure, snipes ripped body made him look freakish..but his mannerisms, his voice, his acting said, "draq"...he (they) were great...

Draq - falloff now that's funny! Your right I do commend them for having the courage and the acting ability - but it is very hard for a man to pull off being a woman! John Leguizamo looked great though!

Oh God!!! Since I opened this thread, that horrible song, I think it's called "Bedtime Stories", is playing in my head and I can't get it out. I see visons of a 6 foot tall drag queen in a beaded gown, with huge hands and size 14 pumps on a stage lipsyncing that song. Oh, the horror!!!!!

I was referring to the dragons down at the local club that have absolutely worn that song out. lol

I like Anita's voice... She's like Sarash Vaughn reborn... But I was very disappointed when I saw her live... Quite dull... She sang exactly like on the albums... No changes or improv whatsoever

Actually, her music bores me more than Whitney Houston's music. I can't stand Whitney for opening the floodgates for "adult contemporary" R&B music to take over R&B radio in the late 1980s but at least Whitney had a nice voice.....it's just the type of music she does that I can't stand. Anita's music bores me more and I can't stand her voice either.



I agree. Though whitney did do some nice uptempos. They may be cheese, but they are good fun.

Anita sucks. My mum likes her.
