Poll question: Favorite Male Actor In Drag...
Edited on Fri Mar-12-04 11:15 PM by arwalden
If there had been more room, I would have included Nathan Lane, Gene Hackman, Michel Serrault, Harvey Fierstein, Rupaul, Divine, Tim Curry, Tom Hanks, Robin Williams...

-- Allen    <--- not pretty in drag.


edit: added other names too good not to at least MENTION even if they didn't get a slot in the poll. Thanks for the reminders.

16. John. Cameron. Mitchell!
God, so great in "Hedwig and the Angry Inch." Before I saw that movie I'd have picked Tim Curry, but now my heart, however spurned it is destined to be, belongs to JCM.

21. Weren't there some great guys in drag on the "Carol Burnett Show"?
Edited on Sat Mar-13-04 12:21 AM by PartyPooper
Tim Conway? And, the other two guys. I remember seeing one in Playgirl in the 1970's. (Sorry, I can't remember their names.) Not to mention...all of the other terrific guest stars.

:swoon:

:loveya:

on edit: I just remembered...Lyle Wagoner a regular on the CB Show was in Playgirl. What a hunk! And, I believe I still have the issue. :-)

22. HOW DARE YOU FORGET JOHN CLEESE!
The man was absolutely hilarious in Monty Python as a woman!

Dan Aykroyd as Julia Child, a close second.

Or maybe the "waitress" from the Monty Python "Spam" skit . . .

27. What about Dame Edna?
I like her TV series where she had Madge go into women's homes and pry through everything the best of all. It is on DVD and it is hilarious.

31. Does John Lithgow's part as a transsexual ex-pro football player count?
I believe he bagged an Oscar for his preformance as Roberta in The World According to Garp didn't he? He was hysterical. the scenes with he and Robin Willaims discussing things and playing football were great.
