"Looking Good Feeling Gorgeous" is the first single from RuPaul's album Red Hot. The dance/house song is a self-affirming anthem of self-confidence, particularly in relation to one's appearance. It was released exclusively on a CD single on RuCo, Inc., RuPaul's own label.

The section during which RuPaul speaks contains numerous references to the movie Paris is Burning. Including a direct quote from one of the films main characters, Venus Xtravaganza: "Touch this skin, darling, touch this skin honey, touch all of this skin! You just can't take it! You're just an overgrown orangutan!"

The single's music video featured drag performer Shirley Q. Liquor getting cosmetic surgery and transforming from an overweight woman eating fried chicken into RuPaul. The video featured male fitness model Rusty Joiner as RuPaul's scantily-clad surgeon.

The music video was directed by fashion photographer Mike Ruiz, and produced for CAYA FILMWORKS by Jeff Beasley. The video is also a social criticism of the standards of beauty in our society.

It debuted on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart as the No. 1 breakout track peaking at number 2. It went to 56 on US Singles Chart and number 3 on Australia's Aria Charts.
