Heee-larious, plus all kinds of fierce. Much better than Tyra's Michelle O. impersonation from this fall. And RuPaul beats her down from both sides, working that dress we all hated! But then, I'm biased. I love me some RuPaul. You betta work!
The only down side to this will be the lazy "Michelle is a man" jokes that will develop from this. Lame! Can't we simply enjoy some crazy RuPaul without the rudeness? He, and his fabulous drag persona, would NOT approve. (TMZ)

I know Michelle has the natural look down but darn...Ru has the makeup thing on lock - they should get his artist for Michelle.
You. Better. Work.
ha. brilliant. I agree with Skywalker...who does his makeup?
I saw RuPaul once at L'ermitage in L.A. He is v. tall, I think 6'5
I LOVE THIS!
Work Ru...
Nobody can work it like Ru, not even Michelle! Drag queens always flaunt great makeup but I don't think Michelle would ever wear this much.
fabulous!
Yeah. I love me some RuPaul. I'm serenading Mama Snob with several verses of "Supermodel" right now. I'm shocked I still remember the words.
And he looks GREAT! (As always!) And the makeup is OUT of CONTROL. (As always!) And it's too cabaret for Michelle, but yes, he's got the makeup game down pat.
Indeed, about the make-up lessons. Shoot- I could stand to learn a thing or two. RuPaul needs to host a makeup work shop.
Hi Snob,
I'm not really a fan of men dressing in drag and mocking Black women (Eddie Murphy, Tyler Perry, etc.) but mostly I'm not a fan RuPaul because of his defence of a White drag queen (Shirley Q.Liquor) that mocks Black women with the most backward stereotypes.

Oh Monie, I was thinking about that mess that RuPaul defends but you beat me to the punch. Ru gets no pass for that. I used to listen to the morning show in NYC and the VH1 show but you know we all have our self-hate/racial issues to work on. He is definitely not an ally for defending such a virulent racist - but I do like his Michelle Obama.
this is so wrong.
hilarious.
but wrong.
I hate, loathe, when black men dress up as black women. It is always a disservice to black women who constantly are battling the stereotype of not being feminine enough.
I think Ru is just trying to gain some shine by usurping the Obama popularity.
...This is freaky looking. I did a double take when I saw this.
I got nothing to say on this but damn!
D I S G R A C E F U L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did I miss this? I love it! He makes a fabulous Michelle, but his Barack does suffer from a slight case of gay face.
Not a fan of this at all. There are already PLENTY of people out there saying Michelle Obama looks like a man or a drag queen.
I blame it on the UNFLATTERING Newsweek cover of her sometime last year. Even I, who think Michelle is fairly attractive thought at first glance that pic was an image of a drag queen and cringed when I realized it was Michelle Obama.
It's just unfortunate because his hair and make up is better and he does really look like her! BUT HE SHOULDN'T HAVE WENT THERE!!!
