RuPaul's Photo Session with Paula Gately Tillman in Atlanta in 1986

Photo sessions require a lot of work as evidenced by RuPaul's all-out effort in this photo shoot outside his apartment in Midtown Atlanta in 1986. Paula Gately captured many unique looks that day including her famous "bad ass" portrait of Ru that became the first photograph of RuPaul to appear in a European magazine. Video shot at the corner of 11th Street and Juniper by Mister Richardson.

Amazing how we look good for 1 decade, but can turn around and look good for another.
