Drag performer Meatball brought the house down with a routine where she tranformed from the GOP Rep. into his drag alter ego, Kitara Ravache.

Listen, there's art, and then there's *art*, and this article is about the latter.

The internet is losing its collective mind, in a good way, over drag performer and Boulet Brother's Dragula alum Meatball's latest performance.


But this was no glitz-and-glamor fashionista posing drag performance. This was an impersonation.

Of who, you ask? Dolly Parton? Diana Ross? Cher? Judy Garland?

Great guesses all, but nowhere near as great as the actual answer.

Put your hands together for none other than the current king of lies Republican New York Congressman George Santos!

In the first half that is, because halfway through Meatball transforms into Santos' drag alter ego—allegedly!—Kitara Ravache.

Name a more instantly iconic drag performance.

And the performance couldn't have been more perfectly timed—Meatball took to the stage at New York's Nightgowns just as some members of Santos' beloved Republican Party are trying to outlaw drag performances in certain states.

Drag him, Meatball!

Meatball has the internet in absolute hysterics with the brilliant performance, which opened with a clip of Santos himself denying his drag queen when asked about it by a TikToker, despite the fact there is photographic and video evidence of him doing drag.

From there, Meatball, dressed as Santos in his usual dress pants and sweater combo, lip syncs to "This Is Me" from the musical film The Greatest Showman.

As the song reaches its apex, Meatball-as-Santos hits the apogee of his performance too, tearing away his Capitol-approved business casual togs to reveal the red sequined gown Kitara Ravache wore for her now notorious performance in Brazil that Santos insists never happened.

Of course, he also insists he's the descendant of Jewish Holocaust survivors and was the captain of the Hunter College volleyball team, both of which are verifiably false, so...

Anyway, the internet is absolutely in love with Meatball for dragging Santos to filth.









It almost makes the whole sordid Santos affair worth it.

Hats off, Meatball!

'Young Sheldon' Star Explains Why She Asked For An Intimacy Coordinator On The Show—And It Makes Sense

Entertainment journalist and Glamour magazine Senior West Coast Editor Jessica Radloff's new book, Young Sheldon: The (Juicier-Than-Meemaw’s-Brisket) Inside Story of the Hit Comedy, shared a story about actor Emily Osment joining the show in its fifth season that's drawing praise for her consideration for her fellow child star, Montana Jordan.

Osment, who began acting at age five, is one of a rare breed in Hollywood—a child star turned successful adult actor. It's a journey many kids have infamously stumbled on, but that Jordan has also successfully navigated perhaps in part thanks to Osment.

Texas GOP's Bizarre Text Warning Voters About 'Weirdo Furry Socialists' Sparks Mockery

A Texas political action committee sparked online mockery after multiple people independently told the San Antonio Current they received a text message urging Texans to vote Republican to keep so-called "furry Socialists" from choosing their leaders.

The message was sent Saturday alongside a photo purportedly showing a man wearing a fox-tail accessory as he left a polling location in Collin County. The message identified its sender as Texans for Common Sense, a political action committee funded entirely by Texans United for a Conservative Majority PAC, a far-right organization backed by West Texas oil billionaire Tim Dunn.
