*SPOILER ALERT AHEAD... but if you're a true fan of the always outrageous RuPaul's Drag Race, then you should have seen last night's nerve-wracking episode by now. If not... get the hell outta here.
New York City starlet Miss Fame may have sadly sashayed away from the main stage of RuPaul's Drag Race last night after a fierce lip-sync battle with fellow queen Pearl... the girls performed to Demi Lovato's "Really Don't Care"... but the elegant beauty is not done using those precious 15 minutes of fame to her utmost advantage. Drag is, after all, half hot couture, half successful marketing.
Almost immediately as her reality competition show fate was decided, Miss Fame announced the future release of her debut album, supported by lead single "Rubber Doll", an electro-pop track with lyrics ripped straight from the artist's personal journals.
"Rubber Doll", produced by the same team who worked on Adore Delano's acclaimed debut album, is an uptempo, dance-tailored effort which does more to divert attention to the insanely catchy, earworm of a beat as it supports Fame's robotic, but not in a bad way, vocal performance. The interesting delivery works as the fabulous queen sings of her transition from an ordinary farmboy to a latex fantasy fashionista.
"Say please, I have you on your knees, submissive to my femme fatale stare," the artist sings on one of the many hypnotic and suggestive verses, before the Drag Race season seven queen goes into a higher pitch during the intoxicating chorus. It's a delicious, not-to-be-taken-too-seriously, dance-pop offering that should definitely get her devoted fans excited for the upcoming full length album.
To support her first single, Miss Fame has released a polished, sharp and expensive-looking music video which highlights the queen's amazing make-up abilities as she parades around in a grocery store, a dish washing session and a dog walking adventure while wearing some exquisite, yet slightly uncomfortable looking, latex garments. Dominatrix Barbie realness! This is the side of Miss Fame I was hoping to see while she was still competing to be America's Next Drag Superstar.
As a whole, "Rubber Doll" works. The track itself is simple and intriguing, but it is carried to a respectable high by a clean visual that stays true to Miss Fame's style and perfectionist aesthetic. Does the porcelain queen have a career in music?
