On May 1st, sightseers visiting Sydney Harbor experienced street entertainment at its finest. The Sydney Harbor dance-off flash mob headed by Australia’s most popular drag queens—Joyce Maynge and Decoda Secret—rocked tourist’s worlds.
The fabulous queens were dressed head-to-toe in iconic Lady Gaga gear and backed up by at least 150 dancers as they danced-off against each other. With catchy beats of Lady Gaga and a couple familiar gay anthems, this was one dance-off of epic proportions!
I really wish I was there to see the Sydney Harbor dance-off flash mob in person!
