The ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ star dresses up in drag costume as he receives a dramatic makeover from the ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ judge on ‘Saturday Night Live’.

AceShowbiz – Pete Davidson was given a complete drag makeover by “Saturday Night Live” host RuPaul during this weekend’s February 8, 2020 instalment.
As the “RuPaul’s Drag Race” judge took on presenting duties, show regular Davidson returned in his role as Chad – a lovable idiot who’s very agreeable and down for anything.
In the pre-taped segment, RuPaul appeared as himself, and was seen posing for a photoshoot for the cover of Drag magazine as he lamented that the world of drag needs a new star.
“Everyone take five!” RuPaul declares to the crew, turning to Chad. “Leave me, with the future of drag.”
He tells Davidson’s character, “There’s something dynamic about you, boy! Have you ever done drag?”
“Naw, just weed and pills,” Chad says with a shrug and a blank expression, before RuPaul begins the makeover.
“Step one: The Tuck!” RuPaul explains, teaching him to disguise his bulge, before presenting Chad with a dress, fake breasts, and finally applying his make-up.
Eventually, the “Skin Wars” host completes the full look, but Chad ends up walking away because he finds being a drag queen too much hard work.
