Entertainment Film RuPaul's Drag Race The Substance TikTok

People think an iconic Drag Race queen is behind this viral TikTok The Substance impersonator

This actually makes so much sense

Over the weekend, there has been a new character dominating my TikTok For You Page – and it is an utterly iconic impersonator of Elisabeth Sparkles from The Substance. This person is running around Los Angeles in full on old Elisabeth Sparkles geish, once Sue has started abusing the substance in question and started ruining her life – but nobody knows who this TikTok impersonator is. However, there is one major theory that the TikTok impersonator is a certain massive fan of The Substance – a very famous and beloved RuPaul’s Drag Race queen.

The person in question has been posting videos like crazy over the weekend and is honestly giving the film a run for its money because it’s UNCLOCKABLE. You can’t tell me that’s not THEE Demi Moore legging it around being iconic.

Except, obviously it’s not the booked and busy Demi Moore. But who is it? Particularly enthralled by this TikTok of the impersonator doing the Wicked What Is This Feeling choreography. And eating it down.

Well, who is it? The theories are saying The Substance impersonator on TikTok is actually one of the most iconic queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race ever – Katya. And whilst we have no official confirmation on this and it’s all just speculation, there is loads of evidence that points that it might be Katya doing the TikTok chaos.

Firstly, Katya has been a huge fan of The Substance since it dropped in cinemas.

I’ve been such an annoying little nerdy bitch when I watch or read anything about The Substance. Demi Moore’s character is named Elisabeth with an S and the director’s last name Fargeat is pronounced Far-JA or (Far-ZHA) thank you for coming to my Ted talk

This tweet in particular of Katya being a stickler for the spelling of Elisabeth stands out to me – because I feel like this account spelt it wrong on purpose to put people off the scent.

The account of the TikTok The Substance impersonator has also been liking and replying to the many, many comments of people guessing that Drag Race icon Katya is the one behind the account, too. Either the person is hinting at it being Katya or they’re playing along. Either way, it’s completely something Katya would do – so her humour and her vibe.

We need a Katya statement on the matter NOW.
