Two totally loser wannabe singing
divas (Collette and Vardalos) get into trouble with the mob, flee to LA and hide
out as male drag queens pretending to be female and making a big hit doing
classic Broadway numbers.
It’s embarrassingly bad and I cringe
for Collette being shrill and asinine. But wow, can she sing. And I do like
those Broadway numbers and she and her partner (I never did figure out which
one is Connie and which one is Carla) can sure belt them out.
The story picks up a bit. Quite a lot, actually. My goodness, I even like it.
