@MaxxieWow Sometimes you just turn up RuPaul, let Jae serve intimidation, let Maxxie unleash some chaos & call it MOTHER. 👑

Call Me Mother is such fun. Every time I hear it, I want to strut thru the room like I own the place.

What song makes you feel like the fiercest person in the room?

[Anthony Hand @AnthonyHand]

I absolutely love seeing Jae and Claire get their pound cake on in this one! 😂

They’re two of the toughest women in Maxxie LaWow, so of course they can turn the Pink Unicorn Cafe into their own music video.

This whole parody was such stupid fun to make! 😂🎂

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

Claire & Jae are cooking up something… questionable. 🎂

Drag Race fans, IYKYN. Lil’ Poundcake would be proud.

Inspired by THOT SQUAD’s “Pound Cake” video. 🎵

@MaxxieWow @Alaska5000 @RuPaulsDragRace I absolutely love seeing Jae and Claire get their pound cake on in this one! 😂

Claire casually turning her beanie into a ski mask cracks me up every time.

This whole parody was such stupid fun to make! 😂🎂

@MaxxieWow At the heart of Maxxie LaWow is a simple idea: You don’t need superpowers to be a SHERO.

You need the courage to be yourself, the kindness to lift others up, and the confidence to let your own light shine.

That’s the message I hoped to share when we made this film. 💖✨

One of my favorite ideas at the heart of Maxxie LaWow is that Maxxie isn’t someone Simon turns into. She’s a part of him that has been there all along, waiting to come out & shine.

I love seeing that idea captured in one little sweep of the hand. ✨

Release YOUR inner shero. 💖

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

The best transformations don’t turn you into someone else. They reveal who was inside you all along. ✨

One sweep of Simon’s hand, a burst of sparkles, & hello, Maxxie! 💖🌟

@breanimator How about fabulous indie American animated films? Check out my queer musical fantasy:
Maxxie LaWow: Drag Super-shero!
🌈💖✨

[Anthony Hand @AnthonyHand]

When your shero literally embraces a giant star, sometimes the song chooses itself. 🌟

I love remixing moments from the film in creative new ways. Beneath all the camp, this scene captures the heart of Maxxie LaWow: the power was inside her all along.

Release YOUR inner shero.

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

Dyna tries to take star power for herself. Maxxie discovers that true power comes from embracing the star already inside her. 🌟

“Only shooting stars break the mold.”

Release your inner shero. 💖

I freaking LOVE the Punkey Doodles version of this meme, so seeing Maxxie and Dyna step into these roles makes me ridiculously happy. 😂

Of course these two would turn an epic wizard confrontation into a drag queen shade battle.
LOL

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

When two powerful queens face off, the most dangerous weapon isn’t magic. It’s SHADE. 🪄✨

“Wrinkly” was brutal. “Stinky” was the finishing move. 💀😂

Jae was inspired in part by my childhood best friend, Buffy. We were inseparable as kids, lost touch, then found our way back as adults. We still text and make time to see each other.
Some friendships really do last. 💖

#MaxxieLaWow #ChosenFamily

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

Best friends hype you up, invade your personal space, invent ridiculous secret handshakes, and always know when you need a hug. 💖
Simon + Jae = BFFs forever.
Who’s your Jae? ✨

@TailosiveEV It probably would've done well sold directly to consumers as a sporty coupe. C’est la vie.

[Anthony Hand @AnthonyHand]

Some people accept compliments gracefully.
Others apparently need to be grabbed by the shoulders & informed, YOU ARE WONDERFUL. NOW BELIEVE IT. 😂💖

Honestly, I support this approach. Sometimes the people we love need a gentle reminder. Or a full-scale positivity intervention.😸

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

If your bestie refuses to believe they’re fabulous, it’s time to STOP ASKING POLITELY. 😂💅

You are wonderful! You deserve love! NOW BELIEVE IT!

Send this to someone who needs a little AGGRESSIVE POSITIVITY. 💖🦋

Life is better with people who love you, support you, make you laugh, and occasionally encourage your questionable decisions. 😂❤️
Here's to chosen family. I wouldn't want to go through this crazy adventure without mine. 🌈

Family isn't always the one you're born into. Sometimes, it's the one you find along the way. 💜🌈
They're the people who show up, celebrate you, and love you exactly as you are.
Send this to YOUR chosen family and remind them how much they mean to you. ❤️

Laraine Newman is every bit as funny, warm & gracious as you'd hope. 💜
Watching her bring Claire to life in the recording booth was pure magic. She found the perfect balance of sass, heart & humor, and I couldn't imagine anyone else.
We all deserve a Grandma Claire in our lives.

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

Who else wishes Grandma Claire was real? 💜
Stand tall. Be proud of who you are. Stay fierce, my Glamchild.
Voiced by comedy legend Laraine Newman.

Rosé had only a few lines as the Cop & Legendary Queen in Maxxie LaWow, but gave us EVERYTHING.
Two distinct voices, fearless comic timing, and so many hilarious ad-libs that several made the final film.
A brilliant actor & an absolute joy to direct. 💖🎙️

#SameActorBTW #Rosé

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

A Scottish Cop. An over-the-top drag queen.
SAME ACTOR, BTW. 🤯💖

Rosé serves double-duty in Maxxie LaWow—from “The 12 Days of Gay Christmas” to Legendary Queen’s fabulous rants!

I've seen Jinkx & DeLa perform together in SF several times, including Drag Becomes Her with Peaches Christ.

It's surreal to go from being in the audience laughing... to directing them in my own animated film.

They're every bit as funny, talented, and generous as you'd hope.

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

✨ Fun fact!
Real-life besties Jinkx Monsoon & BenDeLaCreme play the hilariously dramatic duo Betty & Babs in "Maxxie LaWow: Drag Super-shero."

One of the joys of making Maxxie LaWow was watching our cast make these characters their own.
Rosé had an absolute blast voicing Legendary Queen, and so many of her improvised lines were just too good not to keep.
I hope she makes you smile as much as she makes me.

#MaxxieLaWow

She is fashion. She is grace. She is all up in your face. 💜

[Anthony Hand @AnthonyHand]

One of the themes of Maxxie LaWow is embracing your authentic self... even when things don't go exactly as planned.

So naturally, Legendary Queen had to put her own spin on this iconic viral moment, inspired by the fabulous Kyran Thrax (from Drag Race UK 6). 👑💖

[Maxxie LaWow @MaxxieWow]

Not every reveal goes according to plan... 😂

Take a lesson from the one & only Legendary Queen:
If you fall, strike a pose, own the moment, & keep shining.

Nobody can take away your sparkle. ✨
