Last week on RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars, the queens had to compete in an elaborate, Divas Live lip sync showcase, wherein each performed a drag version of an iconic singer. A medley of RuPaul tracks were covered in the style of Dolly Parton, Celine Dion, Amy Winehouse, Stevie Nicks and more. And many of those soundalike performances came from a diva in her own right, Christina Bianco.

The actress/singer/impressionist is a Two-Time Drama Desk Award nominee who has appeared on The Ellen Degeneres Show, The Meredith Vieira Show, The Queen Latifah Show, and The Today Show. But she’s probably best-known for going viral with her jaw-dropping performance of “Total Eclipse of the Heart,” in which she pulls off impressions of Cher, Patti Lupone, Kristin Chenoweth, Bette Midler, Liza Minnelli, and many, many more.
Then there was her “Let It Go,” done in the style of Idina Menzel, but then Demi Lovato, Britney Spears, and Alanis Morissette!
Need a break? Bianco’s rabbit hole will lead you down a path that has theater kids and drag queens gagging. Girl is sickening.
What if #LizaMinnelli sang Baby Got Back? (I don't know how @brianjnash & I get any real work done at rehearsals) #unlikelyinterpretation pic.twitter.com/JpU7oqEL5D
