"Boy Is a Bottom" is a song by American singer and drag queen Willam Belli, featuring Detox and Vicky Vox (DWV). The song was released to coincide with the fifth season premiere of RuPaul's Drag Race. The original music video went viral. As of July 2014, the clip has been viewed over 19 million times since uploaded to YouTube on 28 January 2013.
On 13 January 2015, Willam released a Spanish version of the song, called "Es Una Pasiva".
"Boy Is a Bottom" is a parody of "Girl on Fire" by Alicia Keys and also features an altered version of the "breakdown" from "My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It)" by En Vogue. Willam had previously collaborated with Detox and Vicky Vox on "Chow Down", a parody of "Hold On" by Wilson Phillips. The song was written by Willam Belli, Detox, and Vicky Vox and was produced by Markaholic.
Andrew Villagomez, writing for Out, described the song as a "juicy and fantastic musical number".
"Boy Is a Bottom" debuted at number six on Billboard's Comedy Digital Songs, selling 3,000 downloads in its first week. Willam has had two previous songs on the chart but neither cracked the top ten.
Willam, Detox, and Vicky Vox performed the song as part of the 2013 White Party in Palm Springs, California. Willam performed the song as part of Gay Pride Parade 2014. After the group split, Belli released a Spanish version called "Es Una Pasiva." This version is the one he now performs stating he can no longer perform Boy is a Bottom as a solo in English.
