Drag queen RuPaul has left soap fans stunned after lip syncing to a Coronation Street scene.
The performer took to TikTok to deliver an acting masterclass as she lip synced to an iconic scene between soap legends Audrey Roberts (Sue Nicholls) and Blanche Hunt.
The Drag Race star donned costumes and even used a floral wallpaper backdrop to really immerse viewers in the hilarious scene, which saw Audrey offer Blanche a drink.
When Audrey asked if she’d prefer tea or coffee, Blanche replied ‘vodka’, in her hilarious deadpan fashion.
UK fans were ecstatic to see Ru embracing the iconic soap, which has been a staple of British television for over 64 years.
‘The RuPaul and Corrie crossover I am here for it,’ one fan wrote in the comments, while another added: ‘Mama Ru is slowly understanding UK hun culture and I’m here for it.’
‘RuPaul knowing Blanche Hunt. I’m utterly obsessed. Queens admiring queens,’ another said.
‘RuPaul has discovered Blanche. I am deceased. Wait until you get into the deep cuts with Phyllis and her blue rinse or Maud and her flowery hat,’ a fourth mused.
Ru’s Corrie tribute comes after stars of the ITV soap spoke out against rumours that the show was ‘in crisis’.
Kirk Sutherland star Andrew Whyment took to Instagram to share his thoughts, revealing that ‘the show is not on its knees’ and that he is very happy working there.
Countless co-stars took to the comments to share his sentiments and their love for each other and the show.
This comes amid announcements that numerous cast members are set to leave in the coming months, with Yasmeen Nazir star Shelley King being the latest to announce her departure.
Charlotte Jordan, who plays Daisy Midgeley, is also set to depart, as well as Craig Tinker star Colson Smith and Eileen Grimshaw actress Sue Cleaver.
