This beautiful British drag queen is simply awesome at transforming himself into celebrities. And he has done 200 of them and is still going strong! He’s Alexis Stone, whose real name is Elliot Joseph Rentz.
Like a magician, Stone becomes anyone he wants. That’s because of his incredible makeup skills. His favorite is the famous movie characters and singing celebrities, such as Jessica Biel, Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, and others. And it’s not only the celebrities he imitates but scary characters too, such as Freddy Krueger from the movie ‘Nightmare on Elm Street’.
Stone is passionate about his makeup skills. He told Bored Panda, “I love the ability to transform myself into others. The ability to play dress-up every day whilst becoming someone else for a moment keeps me sane and inspires me and those around me. Studying someone’s face is what I do best and using makeup to alter mine to resemble them is part of the process.”
According to Stone, transforming and playing dress-up had always interested him, especially in his younger days watching Mrs. Doubtfire. He simply loves studying the human face and the spaces between each other’s features.
Putting on makeup and transforming himself into a celebrity is no great work for Stone. It takes only 80 minutes of makeup for him to become another character. And his favorite celebrity remains Angelina Jolie. Sometime back, he had a Botox job done on his nose and cheeks. This was not taken kindly by his followers, who called him a botch monster.
Just to get back at them, he shared a video showing his bruised and swollen post-op photo of a surgical makeover on his YouTube channel and explained the procedures he’d undergone. Of course, this was all fake, but it did fool his followers, who trolled him badly for undergoing such extensive plastic surgery. His aim was to provoke his detractors for comments and they didn’t disappoint. Despite the hate comments, he was thrilled to have befooled so many with his makeup skills.
He has an incredible fan following of over 875,000 on Instagram alone. He also offers makeup tutorials on YouTube.
