RuPaul’s Drag Race star Shangela death drops into the Spirit Awards with fierce musical number

A star was born at the Independent Spirit Awards.

Shangela, superstar of RuPaul’s Drag Race and of the Lady Gaga-Bradley Cooper film, surprised the ceremony on Saturday with a musical routine about some of the works being honored that afternoon. “Here are the nominees for best original songs that aren’t actually even in these films,” she prefaced.

RuPaul may want to have some words with her protégé about forgetting those words for a beat, but Shangela still managed to bring the house down, starting with a gag about Barry Jenkins’ If Beale Street Could Talk.

“If Beale Street Could Talk, what would she say? ‘Step aside, b—, I’ve the right away,’” Shangela sang.

For Bo Burnham’s Eighth Grade, the queen gave us a “chicken nugget dinner” bop: “If you want more sauce, baby, you can have mine.”

Shangela also spoofed Leave No Trace and You Were Never Really Here, but her next big club hit came in the big finale. Chances are even Ethan Hawke couldn’t hear the name of his Spirit Award-nominated movie without going, “I will be your First Reformed. Bless me, father.”

Watch the performance that had everyone gagging above.

The Walking Dead finale recap: A flicker of hope predicts big things ahead

The storm is here. The Kingdom is barren as snow begins to fall on the once thriving settlement. The fair is over, but the promised trade didn’t bring what many hoped. Their pipes still burst, the rot still spread, and this home, this beacon for so many who sought shelter from the cold apocalyptic wasteland, became untenable. So now, the King and Queen, still carrying the grief of losing their son, must now carry their people to Hilltop as a harsh blizzard descends upon them and the Whisperers still lurk in their periphery. But, once the storm passes and their friends on the hill open up their gates, it all seems like a blip on the timeline. We’re left with both hope and a promise of much bigger things to come. In the final moments before the credits roll, that radio Eugene, Rosita, and Gabriel have been tinkering with since the time jump, their initial mission that first put everyone on the warpath with the Whisperers, finally fulfilled its purpose. When the blizzard came, the power
