A worthwhile entry into the "California Gurls" parody collection comes from NYC's iconic drag superstar Lady Bunny. NSFW with skin, spunk and sordid scenes, which all make for a fun and irreverent viewing experience!

Update: Wednesday, July 7

All is well in California again. After contacting YouTube yesterday about the age restriction imposed after viewer flagging, the "California Gays" parody has been restored to general viewing!

Now anyone, 18 or otherwise, can watch these boys melt some popsicles!

Why, you ask? Well, we don't really know either.

No nudity. No obscene scenes. Unless of course you count gays frolicking on the beach as obscene...
