    I recently started watching Drag Race within the past three years and I’m hooked. The comedy, the elegance, and the heart of the show is amazing.

    Whenever I watch RuPaul I always feel much better! He’s a human ray of sunshine!❤ ☀️

    Ru has never lost his humble outlook, he’s still so grateful to be working and always remembers where he started. I wish all celebrities could be that way.

      Well, it’s all down to one’s childhood, upbringing, and struggles while "making it", I think. Also, some people sleep their way to the top. Others are incredibly talented and get recognized OVERNIGHT. I feel like Ru had a slightly more 'organic' rise to fame, which brings perspective. Something he was big on as a person, anyway. If you’re trying to come up in showbiz & somehow meet all the right people who give you everything (such as some of these actors, actresses who fall off, or random singers & one-hit wonders), you’ll ultimately lack the experiences & the hard work needed to appreciate what you have. Maybe not everyone… but Ru went from San Diego to Atlanta & back again, Tennessee with Lady Bunny to New York & back again, etc. before appearing in “To Wong Foo”. He did his own brand of "genderf*ck", androgynous drag in the early 80s & gradually became more femme & glam by the 90s, released music and had the VH1 show with Michelle… and the rest is history!

      ​@@troyhuddleston7854 they interviewed him about drag race. you can watch it on UA-cam. they just clearly didn't know anything about drag or rupaul, and they were more interested in Ariana grande and celebrity stuff than being cognizant of the great show itself or the horrible hatred and oppression that drag queens are facing from conservatives.

    No matter what people might think of RuPaul, and i heard a few stuff, we still agree that putting drag mainstream by doing Drag Race like RuPaul did, helped a lot of people struggling with who they are

    My biggest hero for the message to scared kids to hang on! There will be those who will be a new family, to love, respect and support you, you just have to find them. Some of those kids have been on Drag Race recently! Brazil, Germany and Mexico coming soon to join the 10 countries with DR franchises. He's saved so many kids.

    Like Jane Elliot said : " We tried love for more than 400 years and it didn't work ". We need stronger laws to protect minorities and all LGBTQ+. Being hatefull is not an opinion and freedom of speech. It has to be punished in society and on the digital world. I can't beleive we still put in the heteronormative hands our basic human rights to be voted. We are one and must take care of each other.

    Rupaul has had a hand in breaking barriers between the LGBTQ+ community and the rest of the world. Perfect example: straight men who would have never had anything to do with the LGBTQ+ community now watch this show, alone or with their wives or friends. That speaks to the power Drag Race holds, and it’s ability to unite. Everybody say LOVE!

      I would thank others for their work. RuPaul would have me a blubbering, sobbing mess barely able to stand. Just so grateful for/to him. I get really emotional when I think of all the scared and alone kids that have heard his message and held on and made it out in one piece to go live the best, most authentic lives ever. He gives hope. Sometimes a little hope is all you need to keep going.
