@@tristanwells1790 that they're literally both winners? I don't expect him to remember every girl's name, but it's the WINNERS we're talking about. Winners. Of his show. The most memorable ones.
Boobalopbop me too... realizing it’s kind of a problem but I just love the feeling of being a bit intoxicated when I’m around people because I loosen up so much.
I completely get where Ru is coming from. Customer service seminars helped me learn how to fake my "party face", and before i had kids i could put a party face on and work a crowd great, but it is exhausting because it isnt real.
Wow RuPaul is a very fascinating person to me. He and my brother are both scorpios and he too is introverted but will become the life of the party as long as he’s getting paid.
He looked amazing and I'm a little sick of people saying he should have worn drag, he looked fabulous and I love that he just does Ru as he always looks fabulous 💜💋🎉💯
Ru looked amazing on the Met Gala and was one of the few who was in theme. She already had her dress made by Zaldy, inspired by the movie Fashions from 1934 and decided not to wear it 2 weeks before. I think Vogue wanted to parade her around like a trophy wife and Ru didn't like that, not when she's not getting paid to do so, as she should, she's not a fucking toy. Anna Wintour has never been known for being particularly inclusive except when it benefits her, and it is a known fact that she did not want to use RuPaul's M•A•C Viva Glam's Ad in the 90s on American Vogue even though Ru was featured on Vogue all over the world, they used a different ad, suddenly she wants Ru now? So to me that was a giant "Fuck You" to all that people who now "accept her" just for the clout. A fucking legend is what he is.
For her to keep harping on "I'm not getting paid" is so tired and annoying though. she's a millionaire already. Sometimes you just do things for the huge moment that it's gonna be. Miss supermodel of the world should have been paired with a French fashion house for a true haute couture outfit. Imagine RuPaul in Dior or Chanel haute couture! The gag of the century!
@@icemeoutlikeelsa And sometimes you want to be comfortable and enjoy an event that you are attending. Ru was not there as the featured guest or anything like that.
I've never related more to a celebrity in my life. When he brought up faking being social 😂 I felt that in my bones. Because that's something I've been considering because I'm introverted and one of my friends told me I'm going to die alone.
Give him a break. He's old already. He already did drag for many years. And good things, he do drag just for the money. Thats someone who know business well.
Ppl either keep asking or wondering why Ru wasn’t in drag. Well no offense but if they were TRUE RuPaul fans they’d already know that if he ain’t getting paid he ain’t dressing in drag. He made that statement back in the 90s/00s...
I understand it's his job and he wasn't getting paid but he is the biggest drag queen right now he should have represent! also the theme was camp, what would have been more camp than RuPaul in drag
Anyones who knows RuPaul a little bit knew he will never will go in drag that night. In his book "Working It" he says clearly he just do drag when the people pay him, it's his job, and I understand it, his drag it's worthy 40.000 dollars. Could be it wasn't the prettier outfit he can choose, that depends of your fashion parameters, but it was his choice. And he doesn´t feel comfortable in social as he made it pretty clear. I admire her, I admire him. Mamma Ru, hugs and kisses wherever you are and good luck with AJ and the Queen.
Lots of artists are actually introverted. It is ironic being in a business where you have to be very public but that seems to be the norm for many artists.
Introverts socialize in increments. They can be the life of the party and then you won't hear or see them for weeks. It's just that they like their solitude. That's the time when creative minds get going uninterupted. It's not being anti social or fake, it's just being a homebody. I'm an introvert but I'm no wallflower.
I don't. Getting paid for work IS important but seeing everything as 'transactional' in life can be problematic. I just really hoped that RuPaul cared/enjoyed/was passionate enough about drag and the overall scene to take this oppurtunity to gag the world and make a statement, again for the world not just the LGBTQ+ scene. I honestly saw a bigger picture here. Clearly I was wrong tho. He pretends to care waaaaay more about drag and queens on his show, kinda fake.
Jesus, I can relate to that introvert thing so much. Not long ago we did an experiment in my psychology class where you were supposed to describe 10 of your classmates and most people said I am an extrovert so I was so confused because I am 100% introvert. 😢🙃
"Most people didn't understand what camp meant" THIS thank you Ru, camp isn't dressing "weird" and bam you're done. anyways I WISH he had dressed as Divine, holy cow THAT would have been ICONIC.
I totally think these points valid I think it’s a smart and wise choice too To let her girls shine Also do the hard work And it’s such a powerful statement where RuPaul doesn’t need to be in Drag all time anymore
I get where everyone is coming from and I applaud RuPaul for sticking to his guns about getting paid to get in drag BUT it’s the met gala. Ru showing up in drag for such a iconic event would’ve been monumental. Yes Violet and Aquaria showed up and did a hell of a good job but Ru would’ve made it so much worth wild.
“I ain’t getting paid.” End of chat
This beyond tired though. And he basically was paid, he got a free ticket that would cost people $35,000 dollars. And he was paid to DJ.
@@icemeoutlikeelsa paid to dj, not get into drag - if you're good at it, why do it for free?
@@XeroQT Who tf do you think they paid to DJ? RUPAUL! There's an expectation of the glamazon being the DJ. And why do it for free? For the gag and attention! You're already a millionaire!
I heard he doesn't even like getting into Drag. Surprise to me. That's what he's krown for but maybe he says that just to get money.

He's an introvert masquerading as an extrovert. Wow, if that is not my whole life story, I don't know what is.
Boobalopbop 😂😂😂yep
I feel him ❤️
Right I can so relate to that
Leyla Sekyi THIS!
Same!!! That explains so much to me
"Everytime you see me out socializing, I'm faking it." The story of my life.
Listen, drag is his job, plus if he ain’t getting paid, he ain’t showing up in full glam, periods
i find it hard to believe he wasnt paid to DJ
Juciy Lynn I mean to show up, it’s just an invitation
Partly but I still feel after doing drag after so many decades he is tired of it. He even told Joan Rivers that when he films Drag Race at judging table visible part is in drag, but below is not.
Yeah, but he was paid to DJ.
Juciy Lynn He wasn't, plus his fee as DJ is nothing like his fee for drag, as it should be, y'all think a Zaldy gown costs 3K?

HylianCrown that’s easy to remember
Ouuuuuuuu the shade! The shade of it alllll lmaoooooooo
If you're good at something, never do it for free.
Cedric Mathew Hudson I guess the 1000s of people getting paid $20 in tips to do what they love should just go fuck themselves?
Andrew Shearin sounds to me like they’re not doing it for free! They’re just not getting paid much for it.
Should I charge for blowjobs then?
What a dumb consumerist zombie comment.
that is absolutely irrelevant to this situation
I was holding my breath when he tried remembering Violet's name.
He is old... brain don't lie
@Darnelly Daniels Y'all expect waaay too much from this old man.
He knows who he’s talking about, that’s what matters
not holding your breath lmaooo
"an introvert masquerading as an extrovert" damn that would take a lot of alcohol for me to pull off
That is SO me in a nutshell, and pretty much why I have a drinking problem, lol.
Same. Loads of caffeine for morning extroversion, loads of liquor for evening extroversion. Sorry not sorry.
same, lol
Boobalopbop me too... realizing it’s kind of a problem but I just love the feeling of being a bit intoxicated when I’m around people because I loosen up so much.
he's been saying this for years though
He’s said it before THEY DID NOT PAY him 💅🏽💁🏽♂️
"Most people didn't understand what Camp meant" THANK YOU!!!
He fakes it well. I'm an introvert and I couldn't do what he does. He's great.
Name Change. STFU hater
Same here, I never would've guessed. Wish I could fake it just as well
I completely get where Ru is coming from. Customer service seminars helped me learn how to fake my "party face", and before i had kids i could put a party face on and work a crowd great, but it is exhausting because it isnt real.

Onarse lmao did you see his Met look? Was NOT camp.
Andrew Shearin true, you right, you right.... it didn’t show much charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent... but in general, Rupaul’s got camp
Andrew Shearin his whole existence is camp lol stop hating

I get exhausted around most people. It’s tiring. I need more alone time or I get angry.
Haha same 😂🙃

very intelligent answer 🤘🏼🙏🏽💙❤️
remember now, every time mother Ru is nice to you... she's faking it!
That's how I am too Ru! I'm amaze to know we share the same birthday or should I say I was born on your birthday😍😍❤
I am an introvert. And I understand. More power to you Ru.
Everybody knows that RuPaul doesn't do drag unless He's getting paid lol 😉
so is he faking being social rn? lol
aren't we all?
Clearly , it’s very exhausting being social
Hes doing a job right now lol this is press for him.

"I'm an introvert masqueranding like an extrovert" me too, that was deep....
I know what he means by being an introvert and turning on that switch when its time. That's how I go through life each day.
“I’m faking it” LITERALLY ME AT ANY FAMILY EVENT
I love rupaul no matter what people say about him
"I am an introvert masquerading as an extrovert" How do I do that because I'm just an introvert on the struggle of making friends... Lol

If he thought everyone was gonna show up a certain way, he shoulda took it up the next level and showed everyone how it’s done. This is his legacy!
The term is shy extrovert and girl.... Same 😂😂😂
YUP I would've had more respect for him had he said:, "IM NOT GETTING PAID!" DONE 😂
I like that line. "It takes a lot of battery power to do it" I'm an introverted extrovert to I totally get that
I felt him when he said I'm an introvert playing an extrovert.
I love what he said about being introvert, that’s me..
"Most people didn't understand what camp meant"

i'm an introvert masked as an introvert, like i cant even talk to the cashier
Ru's introvert side 💞💞 Das my queen
Met Gala carpet doesn’t do lighting for herses 🤩
Camp is 100% open to interpretation. I don't think you can necessarily assign a definition other than it's your authentically over-the-top self.
Omg i love Anjelica Huston ❤️ and you mama ru
Kickstarter to pay Ru to be up in drags next Met Gala when the theme is just SHUT THIS MUTHA DOWWWN!!!
It does take so much energy
Two ICONS ❤️❤️❤️
Andy was like um Chile anyways so
I totally think these points valid
I think it’s a smart and wise choice too
To let her girls shine
Also do the hard work
And it’s such a powerful statement where RuPaul doesn’t need to be in Drag all time anymore
Rupual and Anjelica 😍😍😍😍
I saw him at the monster by himself 15 years ago. He thought he could hide being 7 feet tall. Lol. He was alone.
