Over the years, there have been hundreds of Lip Syncs on RuPaul's Drag Race using a myriad of gay anthems. We're used to the Ariana, Britney, Cher, Whitney, Madonna, and Dua bops, but every now and again a song is used that doesn't fit the usual mold. Sometimes it ends up working perfectly and giving us some of the most unique lip syncs of the series. Other times...disaster occurs. Today we're breaking down some of the weirdest songs ever used for lip syncs and talking about which worked and which flopped.
Let me know in the comments below what your favorite weird lip sync song is and which songs they should use next!

    Uhm, where do you guys pirate it? I wanna watch ru Paul too but I haven't found any streaming service that provide it unless I have an American card - wich I have not as I'm a Norwegian. Please help a girl out 🥺 I haven't been able to watch the show since it was on Netflix 😭

    Girl that nina v silky was tragic really. Watching nina do that popping and locking was so cringe to watch and silky talked all her shit about how good of a lip syncer she is and saying shed send home yvie then gave that performance.

    speaking of lady gaga lipsync songs, i do think more songs off of artpop would be fun - very specifically, i think of manicure or donatella. sexxx dreams would also go insane i think. aura's a hard maybe leaning towards yes. swine is leaning more towards no but like. they could.

    I don't think upping the grand prize serves as an incentive. Most of the competitors are not going to win that, and they know it. They not only have to do an incredible job, they also have to be favored by production all the way through. Upping the stipends, getting rid of queens having to eliminate other queens, and letting the queens get more exposure before any eliminations provides an incentive. In order to balance the audience's need for eliminations with the queen's need to show their work, I think it might work well to have several episodes, semifinals (where half the cast gets cut), several episodes, finals (where all but final 2, 3, or 4 get cut), and then the finale where each queen can present a final look.

    I think one weird as hell choice was “Hey Mickie” the Spanish version from season 3. Carmen Carrera vs Yara Sofia. Imagine a bizzaro world where Raja vs Manila to the same song 👀

  • @ariadneleal8256
    @ariadneleal8256 Před dnem

    I totally disagree about "Uninvited". It made me look at the lyrics and it's an amazingly weird and haunting song (please, look it up). Venus gave a raw, tormented performance, and Kiki was poised and regal. Great, underestimated lip sync.

  • @LM11116

  • @AVIANADRAG
    @AVIANADRAG Před dnem

    Sorry I’m kinda responding as I’m watching but I get the consolidation of allstars as there are several different formats available now but I think it comes down to timing to book the queens, distance of travel in some instances (down under queens seem to not mind the long distance though) as well as potential right to work laws varying around the world-pay differences so I think there’s trying to help get the international queens more air time with platforms that can mold to their needs because honestly I think drag race USA will end after season 20 or 25 and at maximum s 30 so the push for more international queens to have a moment is WOWs main focus

  • @AVIANADRAG
    @AVIANADRAG Před dnem

    Well, they can’t send them home because they’re getting both a stipend and basically a massive booking fee to get amazing looks and fashion available to have on the runway so they can’t send them home to just post looks on insta but I get your points

    They should wait until 3 regular seasons pass before an all-stars.....and then get the best queens back, instead of every queen back.

  • @worstkiterchan9207
    @worstkiterchan9207 Před 2 dny

    I do dance a lot and I feel like the reason Meghan Trainor is less-lipsyncable is because to make the song energetic, you need to play with the half-beats and dance a LOT to give the energy of the song - so it ends up costing a LOT of energy to give the song justice. Add heels, tons of clothes and lipsync, I would die on that stage, I would run out of breath instantly. The song is very danceable but it would work more for a dance performance than lipsync due ot the energy needed. (Not saying queens dont have energy, saying I struggle to give it my all and I barefoot, no heels, no fancy clothes, no lipsync)

  • @auwanho
    @auwanho Před 2 dny

    Hot take: I think they should bring back the teams format, under these circumstances: 1. Non-elimination 2. Tell the queens they are in teams before they are in competition 3. Let the queens team up by themselves 4. Let the queens knows at which point of the competition they will be breaking off to individuals 5. No, and I repeat, no, double crowning
