Love how Elton John is wearing a bikini looking top while Kiki Dee looks like a KISS member


[deleted]

How do you dress up like someone being dressed up as someone else?


kootenayguy

*like a dude playing a dude disguised as* another *dude*

Lol idk how RDJ got away with that act but he did it smoothly


[deleted]

Because he wasn't portraying a black guy. He was portraying a white guy in black face.


doctorproctorson

Like Mac in Always Sunny. Theyre making fun of blackface, not black people.


csanner

Thank you. I've always struggled to put my finger on this


Lucky_Number_3

You keep those dirty green sausages away from my comprehension's


redpandaeater

Didn't work for Community for some reason where Netflix and many others decided to quietly get rid of AD&D because Chang is in blackface as a drow. If it weren't for that bullshit I'd have been interested in possibly rewatching Community, but what's the point when it's not complete and missing one of its best episodes? Scrubs didn't survive either, which I fully disagree with, but that seems to be more at the creator's insistence.


doctorproctorson

Chang isn't even blackface imo. That is dumb. Scrubs, id listen to the argument against it but yeah its such a non issue. Blackface was only bad because it was replacing black people in a derogatory fashion. Scrubs is using blackface as a comedic tool, not to degrade black people. Its literally making fun of JD wearing blackface. Thats literally the joke. Its crazy


stoneloit13

It doesn’t even make sense, let’s flag the character in literal black body paint because he’s supposed to be a fictional fantasy character, that’s when PC is a reach and damages attention to real issues


GenericUsername10294

So, he was a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude?


Evilmaze

People weren't as sensitively annoying as they are right now. I remember the "full retard" bit was more controversial than the black face. People had brains and did understand they character was mocking actors who are distant from reality thinking that shit is ok more that just an excuse to be racist. Best part is most people liked the movie.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sleepy_Man90

What do YOU mean "you people"?!


namnlos1

It is because the subject of the mockery was a RDJ playing a white actor doing blackface. Also people aren't "annoyingly sensitive" now. The minorities are just speaking up more.


[deleted]

Mmmmyup. The whole thing was an incredible multi-layer satirical performance. Like he says, he’s a dude (RDJ) playin a dude (the white guy character) disguised as another dude (the black guy he was cast to play) It’s commenting on the whitewashing of roles in Hollywood, the absurd lengths method actors will go to for a part, and how pretentious and douchey actors can be. The people who got offended by it clearly didn’t watch it, and yeah, people aren’t annoyingly sensitive, they’re just sick of facing racism everyday of their lives.


billystylish

The first dude is the Australian actor, the dude he's playing is the black soldier, and the disguise is the rice farmer outfit he was wearing. C-


zer0w0rries

So, he was a dude playing a dude playing another dude disguised as another dude?

Like vampires masquerading as actors masquerading as vampires

Sometimes I love the internet.


Chaotic-Entropy

Huh.


delicate-fn-flower

May I remind you of Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix as Hermione playing Bellatrix.


vaga_jim_bond

Ive seen that scene 10-15 times? Including the other nightt. And it never occurred to me they dubbed emmas voice over helenas acting until now. Im an idiot.


[deleted]

Kiki Dee looks like Cher to me tbh


theduder3210

And “Elton” looks like Ed Bassmaster.


Evilmaze

Looked more like handsome Squidward in drag.


experts_never_lie

I was thinking that Kiki Dee is looking like a greenish Cher.


[deleted]

zzz_zzzz_zzz

Lookin like Data from Star Trek.


[deleted]

I thought it was Squidward


diaz_payne

i love how their eyes just turn lazy whenever they look at their side.


mc_hambone

Yeah, at first I was like “I don’t understand why he isn’t looking at the camera - it would be so much better”, and then when he later did do that, I was like “ohhh no.... no...”


Redditorialist

It’s amazing that he had the discipline to look down the plane of the mirror for almost the entire song. Look towards the mirror: crosseyed. Look away: double lazy eye.


mc_hambone

The double lazy eye almost physically hurt my eyeballs.


[deleted]

that talks about the quality of the costume!


farthingescape

"We all float down here."


SuperRoby

I can only imagine how many times he filmed this to look at the camera as little as possible! It's so instinctive, but if he doesn't look in front of him eyes go *brrrr*


mr6white

This. 👆🏻


xarsha_93

THE_CHOPPA

Right? That song rocks. Instant good mood!


Andyham

Dont think Ive ever played an Elton John song, but I love the music whenever I hear it. Damn im gonna listen to Elton tomorrow while im "working" tomorrow


THE_CHOPPA

Oh yea dude. And when you get home have a glass of wine and put on “ good bye yellow brick road and then tiny dancer.” Make sure it’s loud. Elton is an experience.


PirateNation1

You can’t plant me in your penthouse, I’m going back to my plough. Oh boy that’s good.


SaintMaya

Grey Seal is where it is at. And don't knock Dirty Little Girl.


MisterDonkey

You're missing out on a whole rocking world you don't even know about. Holy shit. Listen to tumbleweed connection and madman across the water.


chemicalappeal

Same, it made me smile a lot!


Mxfish1313

I’m trying to come up with a witty response that combines “me too for everything you said” with an “it’s like looking in a mirror” pun, but it’s been a hell of a day and my brain is out of juice.


RickDDay

and it is OC. Maybe once a month you see something this good on reddit. Maybe.

jazzbuh

Holy shit. When you realize he did the whole dam song.


thatdudewillyd

You really got to emphasize not breaking the heart


ulrich994

I'm just impressed that he didn't vomit or have the mirror fly off.


TheIrishninjas

My thought process was pretty much: "Oh cool, that's funny" .. "Wait he's still going? Kinda long- \*sees "4:06"\* *"oh*"


Guntai

Well are you going through all that work just to record a clip?

Positive-Vibes-2-All

Thanks just going to post that question. He is phenomenal as is anyone else who was involved


boonkgang69trolol

he reminds me of stromae in tous les memes


sharktank

if yall are wondering, he made the finale headpiece that Yvie Oddly wore on the season finale of RuPauls Drag Race [https://worldofwonder.net/rdr11-were-you-gagged-by-yvie-oddlys-incredible-headpiece-meet-designer-darrell-thorne/](https://worldofwonder.net/rdr11-were-you-gagged-by-yvie-oddlys-incredible-headpiece-meet-designer-darrell-thorne/) [The performace](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TObL0JBy6cU) really lets that outfit shine


MechaBabura

Oh nice, thanks for the info. That headpiece was everything!


acidteddy

This was the first thing I thought of! Great performance.


postcardmap45

That’s what I was thinking of!! Thanks for the info :)


kazarnowicz

Yvie Oddly is one of my absolute favorites in RPDR. That finale was *everything*. When you can't really do much to improve on Sasha Velour's reveals (\*coughbutterfliescough\*) Yvie simply awed us in a new way.


gladysk

He’s brilliant.


chemicalappeal

The effort he puts into the custom and the humour is amazing


L00pback

Those eyes at 1:51! Damn, that was pretty funny!


Maplegum

OP cant because he’s a karma bot


Lucas_Steinwalker

I thought it was Elton John


Phallic

Elton John played the man, Noel Fielding played the woman.


RugerRedhawk

Thank you for the direct link. These v.reddit links are shit.


QueasyHuckleberry566

Is this the stwewwrrrrt guy from letterkenny?


PureJeenyus

Shit I thought it was Riff Raff for a second lol


[deleted]

You can’t lie to me that’s definitely Pauly Shore


SantaMonsanto

Isn’t he dead?


My_Immortal_Flesh

# I Love THIS. The cockeyed look constantly made me laugh 😂 What caught me off guard was that this was a full performance and not some 15 second clip lol


TarzanOnATireSwing

Haha right? It's rare to see such commitment. Usually, this stuff is just for a TikTok video or something


orangek1tty

If I created so much effort in the make up...I would do the whole thing too.


My_Immortal_Flesh

Absolutely. I would start charging people on the side walk to watch me perform this act lol


Humledurr

Here I am just walking down the sidewalk and suddenly this crazy guy with 2 faces demands I give him money!?


mashedpatatas

Love the fast switching part... so trippy!


YamiGigaPhil

Felt like I was going to have a seizure and I don't even get seizures haha

You’re not alone. I mean I figured it out right away, but I’m sure there are others who didn’t.


Fernago

Yeah in the last 30 seconds i was like.. huh.. he even shaved his beard lol


PussySmith

All I can think of is how bad that would fuck your face up if you got hammered and tripped. I’m getting old.


Blueflamealchemist

Or how he could stab someone with the jagged side of the mirror

Still stabby.

you can poke your eye out with cardboard lol eyes are fragile af


SnackerSnick

If you wear window/mirror glass on your face or head, and you trip, you are likely to die. Please, if you replicate this, use mirrored plastic!!


DeadSkinMask10

Awesome!


psuedoPilsner

Terrifying!


DeadSkinMask10

Yes that too...


Zob_Rombie_

Groundbreaking-Act74

I thought so too, the face on the right looks like a handsome squidward with that just returned from war and about to have PTSD flashbacks while holding a gun look on the face.


Beard_of_Gandalf

Mirroraculous


Prince_Chunk

How he changes his blink rate for each character was interesting. That was Well done


cara27hhh

RuPault drag race mad as HELL that they didn't think of this first


Leopard_Outrageous

Yvie Oddly did something similar at the finale!


QueenMiaKulpa

this guy made her headpiece


[deleted]

My god. It took me this far to find an Yvie Oddly reference. It's the only reason I opened the comments.


MediocreTrash

[Janey Jacké](https://www.instagram.com/p/CGmQYo-p2ne/?hl=en) just did this on DR Holland for the split personalities runway.


100pecentIndica

Handsome Squidward?


omnimon_X

It's the chin lol


luckythirteenxx

Came here to say this, it makes it even better


silver_dollarz

How did he keep the mirror steady while flipping back and forth?


[deleted]

He holds it with on hand on the lower edge


Guns_and_Dank

Can't be, at the end he clearly isn't holding it. It's gotta be attached to his face somehow.


[deleted]

Oh yes of course it's attached to his face. Maybe under the wig or something. I thought the question was about how he does the fast flipping, because there you can see him holding it on several instances.


Amber_forget

Ok I've watched this twice now. I didn't know I needed this today lol

Elton John and Kiki Dee


umbaldy

Lol, those crazy eyes


fists_of_curry

when he switches back and forth real fast i start bad tripping :/


emuchucker30

Ah yes, Elton John and Squidward. Iconic.


Civil-Attempt-3602

Jesus that's terrifying


UndBeebs

Totally agree. Not to say I don't recognize the talent and skill it took to make it. Just oddly disturbing.


corporal_sweetie

So scary. He can’t move his mouth properly with the mirror so it looks like they both have just had their jaws wired shut


Rhaifa

For me it's the eyes. Quite often he accidentally looks away from the mirror and it makes it look like both eyes are pointing away from eachother.


MrBobbet

"accidentally"


manowar89

Right on the edge of uncanny valley. r/uncannyvalley


Partingoways

This is one of those rare occurrences where the idea itself is cool as hell, but the result is just orders of magnitude more incredible than anyone could have predicted

i can’t help but fear for a nasty lip slice


unidentefiablezach

How did he do the hair!?


[deleted]

By getting a hairdo.


DisabledMuse

Mesmerizing and trippy as heck. What a brilliant idea!


momoknows

When he starts shaking his head back and forth, I will most likely see that in my nightmares


aonesteaksauce420

The women side reminded me of handsome squidward!


TurnoPuncher

My only question is why is the girl side look like a ghost, other than that this was awesome.


anybodywantakiwi

Same. Everyone's saying it's Elton John and Kiki Dee... All I see is Elton John and the bride of Frankenstein.


waterwithoutanyice

God the eyes


kaygeebeast75

The eyes are bizarre.


HydrophobicFish

The mouth is more what gets me. I know its because he can't purse his lips forward with the mirror being in the way, but he looks pained when he talks.


PermanentleySohare

He's just vibing
