There’s quite a few RuPaul’s Drag Race queen impersonators out there, so when Alaska was swimmingly collecting her money during a recent performance, her scream-worthy reaction to bumping into a Trixie Mattel impersonator genuinely had me on the floor.
Thanks to a drag queen called Lyric, who is known as the number one Trixie impersonator out there, we got to see her surprise Alaska on a Precinct night out. While Alaska held a mic, she genuinely screamed in shock when she came across Lyric wearing a huge blonde wig.
Downtown LA’s largest queer bar was basically filled with icons on August 7th, as Lyric headed down to the crowd to show off her transformation. It seriously paid off, because by the looks of the video, Alaska helped Lyric “make it on Reddit again”.
Something about this clip of Alaska running into that Trixie impersonator at Precinct is so funny to me

Lyric is pretty pally with a lot of the Drag Race queens already, as she recently went out with Bianca Del Rio, as well as Latrice Royale, who told her, “B****, you got me!” during a premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race Live Untucked season two premiere party.
People are even joking that the real Trixie Mattel should just send her impersonator in to cover her whenever she loses her voice, with loads of hilarious comments going round that the real queen should be pretending to be Lyric, at this point.
Lyric “has her mannerisms down to a tea” and one person even said that she “has reached new levels of impersonation” because “this may be the most Trixie you have ever looked.” Um, Trixie who, where is the real queen please?!
Don’t worry, because Lyric, whose real name is Lanndon, is impersonating Trixie with her permission. And even Mattel herself has plugged her impersonator, as Lyric featured on her YouTube channel to show everyone how to do her make-up look.
