I'll be honest, this particular one didn't really seem like drag appropriation to me. I kinda like the fact that yes, he was wearing feminine clothing, but he was really commiting to the performance, he was being sexy without necessarily making those tipical exagerated "girly" moves. He didn't just make it funny, it was super amazing.
Exactly!! I am a straight woman and i have never been attracted to Tom Holland..... untill this happened. I mean the moment he turned into Rihanna he had this raw sex appeal. And I am going to screenshot your comment to send to my boyfriend because I have been trying to explain for so long why this performance was so much more appealing compared to all other lip sync battles and this is exactly what i was subconsciouslythinking but was unable to put into words. Somehow he nailed that perfect balance in this performance that drove people of all genders and sexual orientations crazy.
Ruby Gillett 😂😂😂😂😂 I know right? I'm weirdly more attracted to him now than I was before I saw this lip sync battle. Haha. I never thought that a man dressed as a woman could turn me on. Haha.
Sassy Brad Hi! TOM=Hilarious, like his British comedian dad, then his *Training for Spiderman* shows his gymnastic/ bboy/boxing/free running-like Parkour/rock climbing/can't sit still for long, etc, side!..Watch his awesome, funny: *Interview with Sway* !!...He's adorable & cuuute!! lol! :)
Tom treated this like a theatre performance (coz those Brits get proper coaching lol) and he totally brought the house down. His gymnastics and Billy Elliot training shines through in spades! 🙌👏🎊
Tom Holland played Billy Elliot in Billy Elliot the musical in London when he was 11-13 years old. So he can dance, yeah, really are a professional one. And I think he knows how to dance like a girl 😂 Your reaction is great. Thanks for sharing
Tom Holland is from England, right? Isn't there a long history and tradition in Britain for drag? Like in traditional Christmas pantomine the woman is always played by a man and every year for comic relief they always have those drag dances.
Agreed. The 'Pantomime dame' is a traditional thing in Britain. Also, in the times of Shakespeare women weren't allowed to act so men would play the female characters which still happens in posh/private all boys school e.g Eddie Redmayne played Juliet etc.
naandaka l Yes, us Brits have zero issues by not taking ourselves too seriously and just let loose and have fun. I would hazard a confident guess and say EVERY Brit male has dressed up in women's clothing (including lingerie) put on makeup and gone for a night out drinking at least once in their life (obviously with other similar dressed friends, not on their own) It's almost like a right of passage into adulthood. You hear all the time among groups of guy friends familiar anecdotes of: remember when we went out in skirts and heels? This occurs whether they're gay, bi or straight, it's never about sexuality it's about having a ton of fun. I'm so proud to be British!!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
The hubby and I had a chance encounter with Tom when we were in NYC. He's a sweet young man who is definitely secure in his sexuality. We were with friends and he came over because we were just being ever so sassy and he joined in the fun. Boy can put away the beer too. Alas, he's straight and is currently dating Ella Purnell...that said, he's so cute and short, he'd make the perfect pocket gay.
Well, he was awhile ago, I believe it's Zendaya now, at least that's the rumour. Regardless, the fact remains, the boy is straight. FYI, our encounter with him was awhile ago so, take that for what it is.
Nella J look people, i am aro ace, this started like "aw what a cutie when he was singing dancing in the rain and the it just went... i was just very confused by the end xD
That's why I love lip sync battle. They dress up in whatever the please just for fun and kill it on the dance floor while lipping. Tom definitely won! 💯 All the Men that do this battle wear some type of costume when they perform. That's the fun of it.
You are so fuckin' adorable! Got such a kick watching you 'fall in love' w/ Tom... that moment when you stopped to google his age I nearly fell out of my chair laughing. (I did the same thing when I first discovered him) :P But I am MUCH older than you so I can only dream. *sighs*
Yet another person who doesn't know the true meaning of "appropriation". Plus the interesting fact that he's basically saying that straight people need to stay with straight stuff. It's no different than people saying that men/women should dress according to gender that the LGBTQ always struggles against. Drag shows are meant to entertain people. People not dressing their gender doesn't 100% mean drag. There's impersonators. Then there's the entertainment business. Acting, plays, dramas. A character creation. Cosplay. There are TONS of performances on this show that they're performing a same gender's song. This guy is just choosing what's convenient to be a righteous fighter with. My guess is this guy has problems with transgenders. After all, they ARE dressing the opposite of their given birth gender...or are you going to conveniently say "it's not the same thing." Funny thing, that bit irritated the hell out of me, but what got me pi$$ed off was your comment of how he's a closet gay. He's looking fine, working the moves, giving a damn awesome performance and you equal it to he's gay. You are diminishing his talent and hard work. He's a professional dancer and gymnast. Of which you obviously have no appreciation for. Oh, he does ballet. They wear tights. Guess that's gay? You are a disrespectful ignorant snot. You are the type that give the community a bad name. You should be ashamed of yourself. Sincerely, A TRANSGENDER
Seu comentário é perfeito. Tom não é uma drag queen, ele se vestiu como uma mulher para uma performance, já tinha habilidades antes e quis usá-la para fazer o bom trabalho que fez. Ele foi muito respeitoso com o trabalho de Rihanna levando muito a sério o desafio. No teatro britânico isso é comum, na época de Shakespeare mulheres não podiam atuar, eram sempre homens.
Comment was a bit harsh, but completely agree..LGBTQ don't own the idea of cross dressing..its been going in different cultures for different reasons for ever. Also agree, that the comment that hes gay just because he took his performance seriously, and did well, can dance and all that, has literally nothing to do with his sexuality..this is the reason many straight men are not comfortable with expressing themselves genuinely and artistically for the fear of being labeled.
Ho boy we should be besties you are totally cool. And if you wanna dig in dig in some ships like Spideypool ;) WadexPeter all the way no hate other people! You get one sub!
"How old is he before I make any sexual comments?"
*Cue Agressive Typing* 😂😂
Fucking lolz
That bitch typing hard af! LOL
“How old is he before….”
If a man said that comment about a young woman or child…
Talk about hypocrisy. This idk - and not in a good way.
I'll be honest, this particular one didn't really seem like drag appropriation to me. I kinda like the fact that yes, he was wearing feminine clothing, but he was really commiting to the performance, he was being sexy without necessarily making those tipical exagerated "girly" moves.

he destroyed it with raw talent

@@harshitabhuyan8892 yes!!!!! Yes!!!!
I too became ridiculously attracted to Holland after watching this performance, it's those hips!
This rose above all sexual spectrum norms, straight men were questioning, and the gays and women were all snaps! Mad skillz!!! 🥰🔥🔥🔥
thats how peter parker struggles to help aunt may with the rent
E true hollywood story
@@BradAllen that show would be a hit
"Zendaya, stay away.... He's mine." lol
Hahahahaha "this is bullshit" 😂 why does he look better in that outfit then any girl I know???
+Ruby Gillett cause life is not fair
Ruby Gillett 😂😂😂😂😂 I know right? I'm weirdly more attracted to him now than I was before I saw this lip sync battle. Haha. I never thought that a man dressed as a woman could turn me on. Haha.

Annemay Seyfried yes💯
He's fit. Have you seen fit women in that outfit?
@1:45 Don't worry, I'm not coming for your man
@2:40 Stay away, he's mine 😂😂😂
Tom Holland SLAYED !!!! He lip sync'd to one of my favourite songs of all time. Not only is hot as hell but he has serious dance skills!!!
He said in an interview that his one regret was that they wouldn't let him do it in heels. (water + insurance) 😂
"Oh my goood, Im so horny" IM CRYIIIINGGGGGGGGGGG
true story
Tom was actually in Billy Elliot (as one of the four Billys) on the West End for almost 2 years, and before that he danced in a local hip-hop group.
well ill be damned, i knew something had to be up
Sassy Brad U had me HOLLERING!!! Tom's performance was excellent. Such talent!!!
qween with them body rolls? those small dancing techniques in there? any man that can dance...
Tom treated this like a theatre performance (coz those Brits get proper coaching lol) and he totally brought the house down. His gymnastics and Billy Elliot training shines through in spades! 🙌👏🎊
Tom Holland played Billy Elliot in Billy Elliot the musical in London when he was 11-13 years old.

3 years later and this is still my favorite reaction video to anything EVER.
The hubby and I had a chance encounter with Tom when we were in NYC. He's a sweet young man who is definitely secure in his sexuality. We were with friends and he came over because we were just being ever so sassy and he joined in the fun. Boy can put away the beer too. Alas, he's straight and is currently dating Ella Purnell...that said, he's so cute and short, he'd make the perfect pocket gay.
i thought this story was going somewhere else for a second, but still a beautiful story
Jon in Canada Lol he's not dating Ella Purnell
Well, he was awhile ago, I believe it's Zendaya now, at least that's the rumour. Regardless, the fact remains, the boy is straight. FYI, our encounter with him was awhile ago so, take that for what it is.
Jon in Canada Believe me he was never dating her. It's quite clear that you've read an article from the sun or the like alleging to it.
@@JonInCanada1 We can't know his sexuality. Only he knows. Let's not assume
If I was straight, this would've been very sexually confusing to watch.
Anthony James lol. Haha. U are right. As a straight woman, I'm weirdly attracted to Tom. I'm more attracted to him more now than I ever was. 😂😂😂
Nella J look people, i am aro ace, this started like "aw what a cutie when he was singing dancing in the rain and the it just went... i was just very confused by the end xD
PolliitoAle lol. Haha. I was confused but in a good way. 😂😂😂
think of the boys who sex up pies and you think this is confusing.
Trust me this turned many people on even the straight and the lesbians lol
lol there ARE straight people who can "bring it like that", they're mostly women.
Barley any women are actually straight now tbh lol
I am straight guy , but I might be gay for this one 😂
I DONT CARE IF HES STRAIGHT I NEED TO MARRY HIM
That's why I love lip sync battle. They dress up in whatever the please just for fun and kill it on the dance floor while lipping. Tom definitely won! 💯 All the Men that do this battle wear some type of costume when they perform. That's the fun of it.
THIs was a fantastic reaction, just subbed
