Tumblr artist Christopher McParlan has digitally reimagined what some of your favorite male celebrities would look like as drag queens, and the results are hilariously AWESOME. Check out the newly BEAUTIFUL (Kanye! Bruno Mars! Joseph Gordon-Levitt!), the tragically BOOGER (Jonah Hill! Channing Tatum!) and the jaw-droppingly freakish (Justin Bieber!) (Seriously, he looks like Helen Reddy on steroids) (HEYOOOOH! Anybody? Anybody?). I think my favorite, though, is Rupert Grint. He’s FAAAAAAAABULOUS! (via HuffPo)
Says Christopher:
“I originally got bored one day (while watch ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’) and, for some reason, I just thought it would be interesting to see how famous people would look if they were in drag. So I began to just find images off the Internet and editing them in Photoshop.”
“I then realized after a few weeks/months of doing one image every so often, I has amassed a fairly sizable number. So, I decided to just start uploading them to Tumblr and see what kind of reaction they got.”
“The images are made by taking an image found on Google Images and taking it into Photoshop, getting rid of the eyebrows and stubble, adding eye makeup and contouring the face — in the way that drag queens do.”
“I still do it now, as it has only just recently taken off. I can’t see myself stopping anytime soon, although it can be fairly time consuming. It’s just something I occasionally do in my spare time.”
