We’ve all accidentally offered the incorrect response to a question, such as a responding to, “What’s up?” with a “Pretty good.” Most of us suffer some slight embarrassment and move on with our lives, but when you make a mental slip-up and are a hugely famous celebrity, however, everyone on the internet begins to make fun of you, as is the case with Tom Holland instinctively reacting to a question about RuPaul’s Drag Race by offering an answer about cars.

While a guest on Absolute Radio alongside Benedict Cumberbatch, Holland was tasked with deciding who would win RuPaul’s drag queen competitive series between Robert Downey Jr., Tom Hiddleston, or Bradley Cooper. Holland replied, “I think Downey would win at Drag Race because he has the fastest cars.” Luckily, Cumberbatch was able to get his co-star’s brain back on track, noting, “Aaah… it’s not that kind of Drag Race. RuPaul, man.” After realizing what show the host was actually talking about, Holland exclaimed, “Oh yes… I do know what that is!”
Sadly, it was too late for Holland, as the internet was quick to poke fun at the actor and his mental mix-up. Scroll down to see what fans are saying about the confusion!

I’m disowning Tom Holland because he thought RuPaul’s Drag Race was about cars. You’re no son of mine

@guydolbey
the only thing more disappointing than Tom Holland not even knowing what drag race is is the fact that Benedict Cumberbatch does

Now has distinct visual of Tom Holland going to a ‘Drag Race’ themed party in a little racing outfit, looking at all the wigs and high heels and going: “Where are the cars?”

I’ll watch drag race if any of the contestants are half as good as Tom Holland was in that Umbrella lip sync battle
