WATCH: Derrick Barry Recreates Britney Spears’ Iconic VMA Snake Performance

During a recent performance at Oasis Nightclub in San Francisco, RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 8 star Derrick Barry recreated Britney Spears‘ iconic VMA performance. Yeah, the one where she wrapped an Albino Burmese Python around her neck as she sang “I’m A Slave 4 U”…

Snakes are known to become agitated by loud noises, so we’re glad that everything went off without a hitch, otherwise the headline of this article might have been very different.

Enjoy a clip of the epic performance below.
