Legendary composer Alan Menken spoke exclusively to Gay Times Magazine here in the UK, and has revealed that he would like to see the character of Ursula in the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid played by someone in drag.

"I've wanted Harvey Fierstein to play Ursula. I would kill for that!"

Certainly a very fun idea. After all, Ursula's original design was drastically changed inspired by infamous drag act Divine. Now, to have the live-action film feature a fabulous drag queen as the villain would be a lot of fun.

Might I make a suggestion? How about RuPaul's Drag Race star Ginger Minj? She's totally nail that gig.
