Pangina & Kameron Take IRL Flirtations to the Altar in Ava Max Music Video
Watch the dragged up version of "The Motto" here.
Maxinistas, rise up! Popstar Ava Max has released a dragged up music video for her dance song with Tiësto, "The Motto."
The video features RuPaul's Drag Race stars Pangina Heals, Kameron Michaels, Jaida Essence Hall, and Derrick Berry. Still reeling from her loss on U.K. vs the World, a distraught Heals run into the hunky arms of Michaels.
"I have always wanted to be married in Vegas and why not do it to the ultimate trade of the Drag Race franchise, Kameron Michaels," Heals tells PRIDE. "I mean who in their right mind can pass up that opportunity?"
The chemistry wasn't hard to fake since the two have been publicly flirting on each other's Instagrams. "One of my favorite things is playing into rumors and watching the reaction," says Michaels. "Plus, Pan Pan is hot anyways. So maybe we aren’t playing at all…"
The flirtation was easy for Heals to play up on camera, "no method acting needed. And let me say, he smelled amazing," she says. "Not if, but when we do an Onlyfans collab, I would subscribe to my own account (besides being able to put my whole fist in my mouth)."
Michaels appears out of drag in the music video, even hopping in the dance break with the guys. "I enjoy playing with my masculine persona, especially considering I’m constantly portraying my feminine side with my drag," he explains. "I naturally fall somewhere in the middle, so it was fun to play with that side of me."
The video also features a slew of U.K. vs The World references, the all-stars season Heals just competed in alongside Jimbo, who makes a few subtle cameos in the video.
"Since I love Jimbo, we wanted to shout her out for attending my wedding. She flew all the way from Canada and spent money organizing the chapel. She showed up and showed out as my bridesmaid. Even helped me throw the bachelorette party. What a doll. What a legend."
Can you spot all three easter eggs?
