      +patnstephen2 are you sure? Ru mentioned her on drag race recently and spoke about her in a positive way and as a potential influence for the queens on this season for one of the challenges

      +Lewis Andrews Grapevine talk is Ru once made a remark about how she writes and performs her music and they have not really ever gotten along. BUT neither can deny the other's contribution to the art and perhaps they have cooled a bit. BUT Ru is the sort to point out someone's accomplishments regardless of personal "rivalry" Mutual friends have often told me they just can't share a stage.

    Such excellent work! I saw that John Epperson would be starring in a new play coming up in New York City, and then it popped into my mind, "Isn't he Lypsinka?" Turns out he is. Don't know why that little factoid stuck in my head, but there it is. Fun to go through some of her great performances.

    • @patnstephen2
      @patnstephen2  Před 7 lety +2

      Yes Indeed. John is a wonderful actor and Lypsinka is a terrific vehicle he has created. We saw him play the evil queen (As Lypie) in Once Upon A Mattress off Broadway and it was so hilarious.

      Lypsinka (John Epperson) is a Lip Sync drag artist who has been working in NYC for over 30 years. The voices in the comedy bit are various Movie Stars clipped from a variety of films. The singing voice is the great Marilyn Maye. 89 years old and still keeping a full calendar of performances across the nation.
