Ep. 71 - Part 2 of James St. James' Interview With RuPaul

In Part 2 of James St. James' interview with RuPaul, they take a tour of RuPaul's most famous and iconic gowns, from the "Supermodel" dress to his Versace gown which he wore when performing with Elton John, to his Bob Mackie creation which he wore in his Vegas revue (also worn by Beyonce and Linda Carter!). They also discuss RuPaul's own personal blocks that he had to overcome before he could achieve fame and success, and the tragedy of losing his mother on the same day that he performed before millions during the LGBT March on Washington, DC in 1993.

"you're on the cover of vogue, and you're getting evicted" LOOLOLOLOL

[@ChemicalFire90]

Come on, it wasn't rude it was just James being James. He was making an analogy or trying to equate it with a similar situation. He was empathizing. This interview was fantastic. Ru is a beautiful soul and so is James. Both are treasures.

"Question those boundaries and where they come from".
RuPaul is a FUCKING legend.
