Epic. Win.

I've only watched a couple episodes of Torchwood, I can't give a shit about Doctor Who no matter how hard I try, and I know John Barrowman mostly by reputation... but goddamn if this isn't the best thing I've seen all week.

I hate that song so fucking much that I will literally leave the room if it's playing; the gender inversion not only makes it palatable, it skewers the whole premise so much better than words ever could. Barrowman prancing about in high heels and barely-there shorts being camper than a row of tents (with gay-inducing tent pegs!) is just the icing on the cake.

LOL This is the GREATEST thing I've ever seen.. ever. Not to mention the fact that John's about to play the part of Albin in La Cage Aux Folles on West End... he'll be wearin' heels every night for at least 2 weeks.

Too bad it wasn't the Jill Sobule "I kissed a Girl" now that would have been something.

Oh, god, ahaha! That is comedy gold.

I have such a fondness for him even though I absolutely can't stand Torchwood.

AMAZING. Thanks for that!! I feel the same way about the song but I am kind of in love with this version.

Oh, Barrowman! ♥

I share your loathing of the original song and agree that this is just the most perfect response to it.

Even better: if he had practiced and could have just smirked the whole time. But this is pretty fucking great. \o/
