Andrew Garfield showed off his mad lip sync skills in London.
The Spiderman star is currently getting rave reviews for playing Prior Walter in the London revival Angels in America, where he appears half in drag in one scene.
Last night (30 May) Garfield showed he could definitely lip sync for his life, should he ever have to, even in his street clothes.

He appeared on stage at London’s Troxy, where RuPaul’s Drag Race queens stopped for their Werq the World tour.
During the Wig in a Box game, host Michelle Visage looked for four contestants – one lesbian, one person over 40, a bottom, and ‘someone camp’.
Cue Garfield, who filled the last slot much to the crowd’s surprise and delight.

He was promptly handed – or rather drew – a wig, and minutes later impersonated Whitney Houston.
And he slayed.
The lesbian performed as Cher, the proclaimed bottom was Katy Perry and the oldest contestant took on Dolly Parton.
While the audience loved Garfield the win, however, did go to another contestant.
The ‘older gay’, as we will lovingly call him, was just that little bit better.
