As a blog that features a lot of GIFs, it goes without saying that we appreciate RuPaul’s Drag Race, arguably the most GIF-able thing on television (basically, contouring reduces human flesh to 250 colors or less, expressions are over-sized, the editing packs in tons of drama to every 30 seconds, and dithering just makes queens’ makeup blends look even more flawless).
Has there ever been a more made-for-GIF moment than Nina Bo’nina Brown’s sad single makeup tear slowly rolling down her face on Season 9, Episode 5? It’s literally the first thing I thought when watching it for the first time. Second thought: someone should design black eyedrops so everyone can do this without first adding a quarter inch of eyeliner.
And as fans of the visual artist, we’re of course #TeamNina. She’s basically a walking oil painting.
