That Wasn’t Jack Nicholson at Paris Fashion Week—It Was A Drag Queen
When it comes to Jack Nicholson impersonations, Alexis Stone’s is as good as it gets.
After all, the drag queen stepped out at Balenciaga’s Paris Fashion Week show Sept. 30 in a full-on recreation of The Shining actor’s physique.
Stone—who has also recently impersonated Meryl Streep’s The Devil Wears Prada character Miranda Priestly and Shrek—appeared outside the Balenciaga show in a robe by the brand, as well as with some of Jack’s signature accessories: gin and a cigar.
The performance artist sat down at the show alongside a list of real celebrities including Nicole Kidman, Katy Perry, Salma Hayek and Lindsay Lohan. Stone’s transformation—which included prosthetics that covered his entire face and neck and custom fake teeth—took over six hours to complete and signified Jack in his prime 1990s and early 2000s aesthetic.
Stone’s transformation was so specific that he even sourced a fragrance that resembled what he imagined the 87-year-old to smell like. As he told The New York Times, “He smelled like a wet ashtray.”
