Music Time Warp That time Gloria Estefan hired a bunch of drag queens for a music video way before anyone else
In case you haven’t heard, Gloria Estefan dropped her twenty-ninth album today. Brazil305 features 14 of her biggest hits reimagined with Brazilian rhythms plus four all-new tracks.Listening to the new album got us thinking about that time in 1994 when she recorded a cover of the disco hit “Everlasting Love” for her album Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me. Nine months pregnant, Gloria couldn’t appear in the music video, so she hired a team of drag queens and club kids to impersonate her.Cast members included female impersonator Julian Viva, the Hollywood Super Club Kids, the Fabulous Wonder Twins, and drag performers/future RuPaul’s Drag Race contestants Venus D-Lite and Sutan Amrull.Each represented Gloria in a different stage in her iconic career.
