This is from an old Video Tape so quality is grainy. We do not own this material and post for library and entertainment purposes. This video is NOT monetized.
This made my world as a sixteen year old boy!!! I recorded it on VHS and watched it over and over and over again. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever scene!
It IS!
I like your avatar. Jeff S?
Ah! And when may we expect the upload?
Why hasn't she been a guest judge on Dragrace yet?!?
+MovieBitches Lypie and Ru = Not Friends.:(
+patnstephen2 dang it! She would be such an epic guest.
MovieBitches Agreed!
+patnstephen2 are you sure? Ru mentioned her on drag race recently and spoke about her in a positive way and as a potential influence for the queens on this season for one of the challenges
+Lewis Andrews Grapevine talk is Ru once made a remark about how she writes and performs her music and they have not really ever gotten along. BUT neither can deny the other's contribution to the art and perhaps they have cooled a bit. BUT Ru is the sort to point out someone's accomplishments regardless of personal "rivalry" Mutual friends have often told me they just can't share a stage.
A truly legendary lipsyncer. She is incredibly articulate, and is on queue with every single syllable. Coco Montrese has nothing on her.
+Queen Kirlia Best in the business!
Lipsynka didn't have to point at her own mouth for you to know...
@@PrecociousFriand pointing at her mouth is a technique to focus the audience just like answering an imaginary phone.
WHAT a performance! I've heard of the legend, but never seen the legend.
86-years-young-next-week Marilyn Maye still performs this smokin' arrangement of "Get Me to the Church on Time," and still NAILS it every time.
Who the hell is Marilyn Maye?
The vocalist on the recording Lypsinka is performing to.
Flawless. And fantastically funny. This is why RUclips can be a treasure trove-- it serves an archive of rarities and gems like this.
Incredible talent!
Sing,act,lip sync,etc.
The phone rings and the craziness begins!
Kudos to boffo ability!
Now, that's what I call a lipsync! o_o
I love lypsinka. What an amazing, creative, and talented performer.
Yeah - John's a wonderfully talented performer and a sweet heart
She was absolutely the most fabulous drag queen that ever lived. She took drag to a whole different level of performance art that I haven’t seen anyone else ever go near.
Legends children legends.
Indeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!
Love this and love seeing Joan having more fun than anyone
I saw her in NYC on the mid 90's. So fun! So memorable. I still tell people about her show even today! Thanks for the memory!
Saw her do this act at Wigstock 1992, Thompkins Square Park NYC. Brilliant!
+Diana Rosa Lyppie is amazing. Always puts on a great show. Recently saw her play Queen Aggravain in the Off-Bway production of Once Upon A Mattress and she was wonderful. HILARIOUS!
patnstephen2 that sounds amazing.
+Diana Rosa: YAAASSSSS (...I, Too)...!!!
Utterly sublime!!
Bravo Bravo 🤩❤️💋💋 thank you for sharing
Such excellent work! I saw that John Epperson would be starring in a new play coming up in New York City, and then it popped into my mind, "Isn't he Lypsinka?" Turns out he is. Don't know why that little factoid stuck in my head, but there it is. Fun to go through some of her great performances.
Yes Indeed. John is a wonderful actor and Lypsinka is a terrific vehicle he has created. We saw him play the evil queen (As Lypie) in Once Upon A Mattress off Broadway and it was so hilarious.
Just off the charts!!!!
O my god this is one of the most Hilarious clips o ever seen 😂the way the voice accent is..very melodramatic old hollywood 😬😬😬😬😆😂
LOVE John Epperson!!
We all do - What a talent!
@@patnstephen2 💕😁

Omg, that was just perfection.
Lypie is AWESOME!
LEGEND
+JPlovesmusic Indeed!
Woooooow , woooow and wooooow
Bloody hell this is brilliant
God Bless Joan Rivers
Hear Hear!
Having so much fun looking for Lypsinka videos. She's sooo amazing!! Can't get enough! 😻
Legend
TOTALLY! We saw her in Once Upon A Mattress Off Broadway playing Queen Agravaigne AWESOME!
That was awesome!!
Lypsinka and RuPaul should have a contest.
+tyler cromwell That would be a total THROW DOWN!! LOL
+patnstephen2 LOOOOL
Afraid that wouln't necessarily go well for Rusie-Q tho..........
Have to admit, I've stanned Lypsinka waaaayyyyyy before it was a thing, lol.
The most Brilliant
Daqui 93 anos, tomara que ouçamos bastante, ainda. (Ano 2021)
This is amazing! Why am I just now finding out about her!
thanks for putting this up, so cute. lypsinka is a deelite.
For me the highlight was Marilyn Maye's terrific version of Get me to the church on time.
Yep... So Awesome and Lippie performs it wonderfully. We went to see Liz Callaway at 54 this past week and Marilyn was in the audience one table over from ours.
patnstephen2 In 1969 I saw Marilyn Maye perform in San Juan and she was great years later I saw her again at Town Hall and she was great as usual.
Lipsinka, you're a winner, baby!
Hey! This dude was on Greed (the first of the five Super Greed episodes)! He was dressed as a guy on his Super Greed appearance but i came here just to see my favorite Greed contestant, nice to see that he was doing this before his Super Greed appearance though.
Knowing that this kind of drag is slowly disappearing makes me really sad D':
Jay IU -You're %100 correct there if that's true,and what little i see(a couple of shows at fund raisers each year),the "classics" are giving way to... Ah,well,time moves on,i think that's the way it has to be looked at.
I've seen Bob the drag Queen doing something similar.
Just like our idol Jasmine Masters said, "RuPaul's Drag Race have fucked up them drag"
I agree! This drag is amazing
I wanted to be like her one day
Flawless
The first drag queen who ever made me laugh. Saw him on (or off) Broadway and just laughed my ass off... the Joan Crawford bit still cracks me up.
If someone would know all the quotes that would be amazing!! Ofcourse there's mommy dearest, but I would love to know the Get out of my life get out of my dressing room quote!
+Pete Randy: could THAT have been something from Susan Hayward, i Wonder...???
Shantay you better stay!
I couldn't really tell for sure, but...Joan MUST have Been GAAAAAGGING (...with Deeelight)!!!
Does anyone know where the " get out of my life get out of the theater.." quote is from?
Yes, it comes from Dolores Gray's Night club act. It is her lead-up to singing ROSE'S TURN from Gypsy.
SHe played Mama Rose in '73 In London
Does anyone have the rest of this sho? I haven't seen this in ages! What fun lol
We don't have the whole thing I'm afraid :(
inspired!
