Australian drag queen Minnie Cooper and her tap dancing backup dancers amazed the judges during the Tuesday night auditions for Australia’s Got Talent Season 8. All four judges, including former RuPaul’s Drag Race guest judge Kelly Osbourne, were astonish by Minnie’s “Priscilla Queen of the Desert meets Toddlers and Tiaras” show tune number.
Before the routine even began, Kelly declared, “I think I’m going to love this. Take it away!”
When the number was over and all four judges sat down from giving Minnie a standing ovation, Kelly proclaimed, “You are just fabulous. And it just got bigger and bigger and more sparkles. And even with the ugly tap shoes, it was everything!”
How many of the four judges do you think gave Minnie a pass to the next round? Watch the full clip below to find out!
How about we take this to the next level?

How lucky is it to be the child of somebody famous? I actually like Kelly Osborne but look at reality.
She was on a reality show because of her dad, tried and failed at music, never finished school, could a ford to buy expensive clothes so has lucrative jobs now as a talent and style judge with mo training and no effort of study.
Not bad work if you can get it.

No, actually I fat fingered my phone and it auto-corrected. But of course that would make my entire point irrelevant wouldn’t it?

Oh dear. I really don’t get it. It doesn’t matter how old or tired the drag is or the lines are (“ladies and gentlemen and those who are still undecided”), there’s always some who will find it “fabulous”. There’s just no accounting for taste.

@Sluggo2007:
In these days of auto correct and using phones to type with and the fact that for many people English is not their first language I think it is poor form to attack someone’s spelling or grammar.

Drag queens, drag queens, draq queens. Is that all that Australia’s gay community can offer the world? Is that all that straights will accept from Australia’s gay community?
Drag queens are being used to erase the male homosexual in Australia.
