Drag Queen From Manchester Is So Good At Makeup, She Can Turn Into Literally Any Celebrity
Most of us probably wake up in the morning and wish we looked like celebrities now and then, but for British drag queen and makeup artist Elliot Joseph Rentz, AKA Alexis Stone, that dream becomes a reality whenever she pleases.
The Manchester-based, Brighton-born entertainer has the incredible ability to turn herself into any star one could think of, and her best makeup looks so well that it almost seems Photoshopped. It all started back in June when the already insta-famous Stone used strategic contouring and a whole lot of highlighting to appear as fellow 'MUA' NikkieTutorials, a body art stunt that racked up more than 32 thousand likes and confused pretty much the entire Internet. Since then, she's successfully portrayed everyone from Michael Jackson to Queen Elizabeth and shows no signs of slowing her makeup transformations deliveries.
Scroll down to be wowed, and be sure to vote for this drag queen's makeup that truly blew your mind.

Amazing work Elliot...you are a VERY TALENTED person. Cheers - Bill/Vancouver
Hi Elliotjust paged through your shots and I think you are probably one of the MOST TALENTED make-up artists in the world. Simply amazing. Cheers. Bill in Vancouver Canada
Jennifer Lawrence
CRAZY!! It's not just the makeup, either... it's the expression! Spot on!!
Ok, but where is the picture of him in the makeup? This is just a Jennifer Lawrence picture
It's a great transformation. What I find distracting, though, is the severe dark contouring around the face & under chin. Otherwise, it's amazing!
Yes, the contouring is at first distracting, but when you realize that he did it to "match" the shape of the person he's impersonating, then it helps with the effect.

A tad too much. Though this is a hard one because she does not wear (as much) make-up like the rest.
Queen Elizabeth II
Dita Von Teese
A lot of these really show just how much makeup the celebs themselves wear.
Donatella Versace
He looks better than Donatello. Her plastic surgery made her look like a freak.
Marvellous make up! But too soft for Donatella, she looks more like proscuitto in a wig.
Uh, yeah, cosplayers wear wigs. Is that a problem? Did you honestly think that he cut or magically grew his hair for each shot *rolls eyes*

Photoshop does amazing things, you can't increase your lip size with makeup alone. On another site he shows you his "editing".
Load More Replies...Just no. He makes a demented Dolly. I'm out. Nancy- I got your back here.
Leonardo Dicaprio
Awesome work, but he used some Photoshop to achieve this exact look... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQqgASULDH8
Jeremy Meeks
He even stippled on the guy's hair with incredible detail! This dude's a genius!
Madonna
A mix of the two of them. But I agree with others, the cheekbone is a little too much!

Marilyn Manson
Charlize Theron
He contours around the jawline to mimic their face shape. The larger the difference between his face shape and theirs, the larger the dark area. Charlize and Manson both have much narrower and smaller faces so it's more noticeable, but if you look all of them have the dark contouring around the jawline.

OK, looking at this I have to say he uses some photoshop as well. Those lips aren't his.
Nope, no photoshop. He's just an extremely talented artist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zTC-6qrzns

Tilda Swinton
Anna Wintour
Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke)
The jaw line is too visible there, but other than that tiny part, it's amazing!
I see that it is supposed to be shading, but it kinda looks like a beard
But it really is amazing!! I'm not trying to be rude I swear

The face is too round. And I would have loved to see some facial expression. I know Kat does not always use obvious facial expression, but I like those photo's better. Not to hate, because I do like it!
You can see in all these pictures where he used super dark foundation to create the shape of the face of the star he was transforming himself into. Right under abs around the jawbone. You can spot it in all the pictures.
Kylie Jenner
I would say no pouty lips and a little less highlight on the cheekbones and it'd look perfect
Justin Bieber
Kesha
Michael Jackson
I think you didn't spell your first name correctly. It should be "Moany Monika"

Paris Hilton
Ariana Grande
He exaggerated the eyebrows too much and the jawline is too hard. But other than that, well done.
I now understand why he doesn't use his full face XD Some people have smaller jawlines omg I can't believe I just now figured this out
Glenn Close
Kim Kardashian
Lady Gaga
The only critique I have is a little too much highlight. Other than that, it looks awesome!!
Cate Blanchett
Pete Burns
Meryl Streep
Jocelyn Wildenstein
Jocelyn Wildenstein in the 1990's, when her face was dammage but she still looked human....
He took her injudiciously exaggerated look and filed off the rough edges.
Cardi B
A little too light on the skin tone (I don't know much about her, I had to look her up lol) Looks great though!!
Probably trying to avoid people freaking out and crying blackface even though he’s doing it to honor her

This does look like him, but Jeffree Star usually wears SO MUCH eye makeup with huge false lashes, I think he'd be even more recognizable if the makeup were more extreme like that. Still, very impressive!
Okay, first of all, she never said, "That's terrible, I could do so much better." She said,"I don't really see it." She is entitled to her opinion, stop being a judgmental b***h and grow up.

First one...I really don't see... maybe needed the big wavy red hair?????
idk what she looks like but it looks like how i think she might look lol
If I could make myself look like this, I would wear this makeup everyday! *L*

Completely agree ... The bored panda comments section always makes me laugh , gives a good debate , or some information. Seeing some lame quarrel is making me bored now .

You have issues. You're taking this way too seriously. I've seen your comments on all of these pictures. So judgmental. Like you could do a better job.

This isnt scary if you didnt like it then why did you click on it if youre just going to bring shame. This why people like you shouldn't have Bored panda

Although - no - there's something not quite right about this and doesn't quite look like her - I love the fact he even made that little groove in her lip.
Pabllo Vittar
Nicole Kidman
The obvious jaw lines on most of these are bugging me from what other wise would be perfection! I wonder if he blended them just a little more if that would work or take away from the effects he is going from? I love his work!
Jaclyn Hill
Nikita Dragun
I wonder if it would have been better if you couldn't see the brown all around the jaw line? Beautiful make up though.
Blac Chyna
Sooooo negative for nothing. You make me so angry

I'd like to see you even try to do what he has done. Seriously.

Not the best, but still looks more like her than i could and i'm a young blonde girl lol
Rihanna
I really tried to see Rihanna in this but I just don't see it at all, fantastic make up though
I vote Photoshop. You can't change the folds on someone's eyelids or the way the eyes are shaped. It looks to me like some makeup was applied and then the defining characteristics of the person in question were added later. Some of the lighting isn't consistent across the entire face either- that's usually a dead giveaway.
Load More Replies...Okay there has been a lot of disputes over this article, such as whether or not it has been photoshopped or hate and rude comments towards his work and those who have commented on his work. Can we just appreciate how much time and effort it must have taken to transform into one of these celebrities? While it may not be perfect, he obviously worked very hard and the outcome is incredible, even if its not a precise image of the depicted celebrity.
While I appreciate the fact that this guy has mad skills, quite a few of them just don't look like who he is trying replicate. A few look like the blending wasn't completed and a few look like cartoon caricatures, and a few just don't resemble anyone famous. Thanks for reminding me that I don't know squat with how to apply makeup hahahaha.
Definitely photoshopped from an app! Even a photo specialist said so by certain edging.
Nope, no photoshop. You can see videos of all of these transformations on his YouTube channel. He's just incredibly talented! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzWTH7VgNLUvxnC-mFJwO8Q
