Sharon Needles releases ‘This Club Is a Haunted House’

How weird is it that, a year ago, Sharon Needles was an underground indie darling, roughing it with her fellow freaks and geeks in Pittsburgh, and now she’s an international gay icon with a music career and her own TV show? That’s what happens when RuPaul gives you her blessing: you slowly but surely take over the world.

Since tonight is the premiere of the fifth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race (featuring Needles’ ladyboyfriend, Alaska Thunderfuck), Sharon decided to release the music video for her new single, “This Club Is a Haunted House,” off her upcoming album, PG-13. Check out the video below, and check back tomorrow for another run of Drag Race RuCaps.
