Surviving a Disneyland Resort Ride in Drag

Sugar’s experience on the Incredicoaster garnered attention as many viewers pondered how her drag glam managed to withstand such intensity. From her well-secured wig to her perfectly placed eyelashes, the resilience of her cosmetics became a point of fascination. The ride’s extreme elements, including inversions and rapid speeds, typically pose a threat to anything loose or unsecured, yet Sugar’s makeup held up remarkably well throughout the adventure.
