When she put that eye lash on with nails right on beat and gave a side eye directly to the camera I died and came back to life
That is serious genius. Dena is THE performer.
@Jackson Tremaine Round 2:09
she glue he eye shut
hahaha same
Same Same SAME
This is DRAG!!! No splits no dramatic tear away of wigs or costumes. Just subtle reveals and dramatic lip syncing 🙌🏻👏🏻
Yes!!!!
Certainly drag at its best
High DRAG
I love how she's putting perfume at the end - true lady!
I think that's why the crowd went up
Yess!!! Perfume completes the look, finishes any outfit.
My 97yo grandma wears Lair du Temps to this day lol She sprays it all over her clothes, its so strong and loud and a bit tacky, just like her lmao
@@src3360 you're grandma sounds like a legend 💜
her placing that lash perfectly and then posing right on time to the music; that is what we call a "cultural reset"
Perfection
she glued her eye shut
@@BilliePosters lol
yeah
@@BilliePosters shut up!!
this remains one of my favorite drag performances of all time. this is what drag and femininity is all about.
The fact she spent the whole performance doing her makeup and was still able to perform so natural and keep us invested shows something
She is a god given talent to the world!!!! A wonderful performer!!!!
A true performer is able to take something simple and turn it into something extraordinary. Dena, giiiiirrrrrlll you did that.
I cannot believe she got those lashes on so effortlessly with those nails!! That's true magic.
I can't believe she even opened the package with those!
I can’t even put on lashes without nails 😂. Shit I can’t put them on period
Her right lash was never on right. It was drooping the whole number.
@@DavidLee-gn3ui 😶🙄
@@DavidLee-gn3ui yet she still turned the party.
I HAVE BEEN IN THIS BUSINESS SINCE I WAS 16 AND I AM 60 NOW, AND HANDS DOWN IF YOU TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE VISUAL, MENTAL, AND AUDIBLE ANGLE OF THIS PERFORMANCE...ONE OF THE GREATEST PERFORMANCES IN A PAGEANT HISTORY. ONE MUST TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HOW MANY TIMES DENA HAD TO PERFORM THIS TO GET IT CORRECT, AND THEN ADD IN NERVES WHILE PERFORMING LIVE...MY GOD. BEST TALENT
The fact that she never missed a single word while drawing on the perfect brows won me over! Yassssss!!!!
This brings back so many memories when I was a teenager I would sneak in the bar and watch her get ready trying to learn!
WOW JOSH YOU SAW THIS ON A NIGHTLY BASIS I AM SO ENVIOUS MY FRIEND X
Lucky you. It must be wonderful to have such lovely memories of your younger days. Cherish them. They are so important to our well-being. ✌🇨🇦❤❤🥰
this is the epitomy of a certain kind of o.g. drag, the terrific dignity of those old school queens, their proud defiance of all the norms! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree. Old school drag before drag was cool. The best!
THE GREATEST DRAG PERFORMANCE EVER! FIGHT ME IF YOU DISAGREE!!
I really hope that nobody tries to recreate it and fck it up. I want this to be IT periodt.
Wigs across the world were snatched!
......and snatched tight!!
Tore my lace front to pieces!
@@TheDragLover Absolutely!
My wig flew to mars
Baby when she put on that one eyelash and looked up like “you see it bitch” I wanted to shout, my god 🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏿👏🏿. She ATE this
Now that is a lipsync! Her timing was perfect! Each lash...the lipstick when the singing stopped...it was just brilliant!
Just watched this for like the 38th time..it makes me happy..I've seen Dame Shirley in concert..now I'm dying to see Dena on stage..
I’ve seen Dena so many times, and I’m so lucky.
@@llcooljay520 YOU SURE ARE MY FRIEND
Thanks for showing this to me, Willam.
Me too dude 🌈👏
This is better than anything I have seen on RuPaul's drag race!!!!!!!! Go Dena!!!!!!
Some of the best drag queens in the world you will never see on Drag Race... And they don't need it!
edro51188 so very true
@Marcelo u
Sorry that was a mistake
Sure Jan...
Fenomenal
This was one of my favorite moments of the entire pagaent !
Did she win or where did she finish?
I agree most of the the prelims we're kind of boring this was good
I stood up and clapped even after watching the video. I can tell I'm going to watch this a few more times.. Go Dena!
I never tire of watching this. So creative. This is HER LIFE.
I've worked with Dena over the years. I've seen queens take off their face on stage, but never put one on. Love her.
i am obsessed with this performance tbh !! perfect in every way!!
But applying makeup as part of the performance though . Pure genius 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💋
I just keep coming back.... she is PERFECTION!!!! 💓💓💜💜
Everytime I come back to watch this the chills start instantly.
back again. 💕🥹
I just live my entire life watching this performance. It never gets old and always lifts your spirits.
I just discovered her! Comments say she has covered this before; but you fail to acknowledge there was no social media 3 or 4 decades ago. This is for us newbies. Incredible!
I don’t have words for this level of magnificence. Drag really is a high art form.
This performance brought me to drag church it was spiritual to me and this song is helping me through hard times
I could watch this over and over, Fabulous!
Fabulous 💖
One of the most fabulous queens in the industry. A living drag legend ♥️
Milwaukee here, I love this!!!!
Great job! She was exactly on time with the playback music & she did a great make up.
This is what talent looks like:
skill, showmanship, and creativity. Bravo. 🙌🏾
Magic! That on cue lash left me breathless. The costume and lip synch finale was perfection.
This will never fail to impress me....Pros do it like this
I’m a little sad, Erica, that’s what I remember when I listen to this song.
Omg her timing was perfect
I have seen this song performed many times throughout the years. Some get IN drag and some get OUT of drag on stage. Any way it is done, it is always touching and popular with the crowd.
Woops! I almost forgot to watch this today
Oh gosh. This really takes me back to the mid-late 00s LIVING for those nights in Studio where Dena would perform. Such an amazing performer! She always chooses music I love. She can dance the house DOWN. Love Dena so much!!!
I WAS there to witness her talent I scream and stand up and clap in end of talent
Damn! I was not trying to cry tonight. This was so AWESOME! LOVE,LOVE,LOVE!
Watching this again because this shit is amazing!!
This is exquisite, absolutely fabulous.
I’m sure she practiced this endlessly, but with this final product you’d never know! It feel like we just got a camera back stage, flawless!
she is my idol and what every showgirl wants to be.....LOVE YOU DENA !!!!
David Smith mines too
Simply Breathtaking! Fabulous performance!
This is easily the best drag performance of all time
The lyrics to this song is something I need to remind myself this my life to hell with the haters ❤️
I wish I could have saw this live it’s so inspiring!!
Such an Iconic performance
Dena Cass is a true GODDESS and DIVA !!!
Dena is fantastic! That number was everything!!💜💛❤💚💙💖🧡
This is BEYOND....FLAWLESS😍😍😍😍👌👌👌!!!!
Years and years of practice. This is the secret of perfection
Miss thing was giving cosmo queen makeup tutorial LIVE 😍
She did all that with a nail honey! 5 minute face WHO?!
The concept of how drag queen prepares was outstanding. Bravo.
This is my church music i feel powerful listening to this im always emotional listening to it too.. 🤣👏😢 let me live god bless these women
The real talent in all of this is doing all of that with those finger nails. Big love on you Dena
This is what you call a performance - a show - an artist at work! Wondrous - Divine - Expressive - 10s across the board!!!!
A true lady. A Touch of Class from beginning to end. Meticulous lip-syncing skills. Had I not known better I would have thought she was singing live. Bravo this is drag.
I just cannot stop replaying this video. I really love the song, but this gal is so incredible. I am like, "You Go Gurl!
...this is me...this is MY LIFE. You go GurL!
I have watched this many times. Love Dena..my favorite Continental number
if you can't do it like Dena Cass.. Just SIT DOWN! AMAZING!
She’s amazing live..seen her at the Speakeasy a couple times
the BEST I love her she got the Josephine Baker look
She must have seen the Late Paris Dupree do this in NYC 89-93. This was her signature act. I saw her do it @Sallly'sll,The Anvil and Edelweis respectively.
Few performers make me cry and you did it! I live for everything about this performance!
How 💯 absolutely fabulous is she! Bravo, Bravo, 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have watched this video a lot of times and I'm still amazed every time 💖
I stood up and Clapped and Hollered, What a Beautiful Talent, Rest Easy Diva 🥰❤️ !!!!
She’s not dead
@@nickib5088 LOL right I follow her on tiktok and she's very much alive 😂
i saw dave dale in birmingham in the 80's he wasn't booked he just turned up and did his
show on the dancefloor
i was feeling pretty down and it really lifted me up
this is pretty cool
i still don't understand what it is about this song that gets me
Wow! I’m in LOVE with you Dana! 💌
She was absolutely amazing I loved the whole show she brought me way back with this song I always loved this song from when I was younger when I use to hang out at the GG Barnum room in Manhattan when sherry use to open up the show how I miss those days as a transsexual beautiful woman that I am it's not the same anymore but again she looked gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
you know just CASUALL!!!! I ADORE HER.
I'm so happy I have a personal connection to her, she's so amazing.
Legend!
thank you briawna for showing me this treasure!
This reminds me of watching my mum getting ready for a night out when I was a kid 😂 ❤️
I've said this many times....Nobody like Legendary Florida's Own Miss Gloria Klein doing "This is my Life" and specially at Miss National 97 performance with the Mannequins! This particular performance was great though.
Who in the hell would thumbs down this video , don’t they know she is legend .. unhappy people will always hate other people who are happy in there lives .. anyways .. you go MS . Dens Cass we love you .. paint girl paint !
This popped up on my feed - WOW!
I will be looking for more on this talented and gorgeous dame 👏👏
Serious skills on display here, and this song just slaps
Glorious. This is drag perfection.
She hit the girls with something fresh for her talent 🙂
Dena!!!!!!! Just spectacular
Forever one of the best numbers EVER
This is amazing! Dena reminds me of Martha Wash when she's all done up! I wonder if she ever performed "Give It To You" or "Carry On"?
Talk about getting ready for the party at the party. Walked right off stage knowing they was ready ready okkkk
That was iconic !!
