- Join Supermodel-of-the-World RuPaul, "Blossom" star Joey Lawrence, and comedian Gilbert Gottfried as they crown the King and Queen of MTV's Spring Break 1993. Yes, it's the long-lost "Beauty & The Beach," as hosted by Ed Lover and Vanessa A. Williams.
Took balls of steel to do this in front of that deadbeat audience. And those balls were hidden in one incredible tuck! Respect!
Well he certainly has those
Owwwwwkay Preach🙌
Who says stuff like that ? Disrespectful
@@ucffechvdb1627 it's called a joke
Because no one care
Just think how wild the crowd would be if she did that today
+Debbie Bunzl They'd love it. But only because of the trailblazing activism and hard-fought persistence of personalities like RuPaul, and Boy George before him. As someone of Gen-X, it's refreshing to realize how far we've evolved within the last 20 years. Just imagine the cast of "Prancing Elites" performing on that stage, in 1993, instead.
I was only a few months old when this performance happened but I remember loving this song as a kid. Ru even guest starred on a few shows I watched in the 90's. I didn't know what drag was at the time but I thought she was stunning and I was drawn to her for having the courage to be different. Such an inspiration.
I think Gen X was the perfect time to come out with that!!! We had already seen Boy George and Michael Jackson and glam groups like The Fixx and Pet shop boys as kids so by the time we were in our late teens early 20s this was not as shocking for us!!! I remember being 18 when this came out and was not at all shocked, it was actually kind of fun and as a member of Gen x felt like we were superior for loving this with such ease!!!
Mike M Gen X was the most cool Generation.
Literally everyone wotgo crazy. Shit Ru could show her leg, and everyone would die
not gonna lie, it's so weird seeing the audience not taking pictures with any smartphones...
Ha! That's funny!
Ikr! I thought I was the only one that forgot this was from the 90's 😂
+Ivan Luza Those are the good years when people actually paid attention !
To be honest makes more weird to see that audience dead....
rupaul's (who had a lot of guts) is performing in front of a straight audience. not surprised they aren't that into it. they might be trying to figure out where he put his penis.
the crowd was not into it. But Ru pressed and laugh on.
+Jasmina Cortez That MTV/Spring Break crowd catered to the "frat boy/alpha male" demographic. They were completely threatened by someone being "different" and OWNING it ALL.
+lee a I know. and I'm sure Ru knew. and she still performed well.
+Jasmina Cortez It kinda seems like they managed to edit the crowd sound out a bit?? If you watch closely, the audience looks a lot more animated and into it than they sound. There was definitely a few guys singing along lol
I noticed the guys singing along too and the people up front seemed to be enjoying it. At least everyone cheered/clapped for her :)
To be fair. He not a great performer. But he make bops n a great artist.
I love how he laughs every time he sings "Sashay! Shantay!"
AWlpsSHOW36 yeah but now them words Instil fear into hearts of queens.
I DIDN'T EVEN EXIST WHEN THIS HAPPENED OMG
SAME
I was 1 so I can almost relate 😭😭
I was already in my mid 30’s. It does not seem that long ago. Time speeding by!
I was 2. Glad this was in my generation ❤️
Same bitch
The fact that she could move around that much AND sing with a corset cinched that tight......
*applause and adoration*
KellyDemonoid you know that every drag queen does the same right?? They are amazingly strong people
She did way better job Britney spears no offense
Elisa Alonso except Adore ☕
Oh my God. What Ru has done for the community. I love her.
I love this!! Back in 1993, people did not know what to make of this. It was very new to the mainstream and RuPaul blazed that road in ways no one could ever foresee. I remember watching this on tv and thought it was so awesome!!
Yes! People were baffled!
I remember it too! I didn’t know what I was watching but it woke something up in me!
It do take nerve.
charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent
That body is SNATCHED!!!
I was 13 and watched MTV spring break. Mt dad saw it and said rupaul had nice legs. My mom and I told him..... He thought we were lying!
LOL that's so funny. And so true! :)
M. Bax I was still in the womb
I thought Rupaul was just a beautiful black woman who sang as a kid lol so I can't blame him
My dad thought the same thing he thought he was a woman to I told him RuPaul is a man not a woman and my dad's eyes popped out of his head
@@mariaperez-cuatzilo7864 Did they ever go back in?
Great vocal control from her tbh. You can tell she was a wee bit nervous, especially at the beginning, but she kept her cool throughout and held out her guns. love you Ru!
I remember Laganja came off as over the top to the judges and Ru said she understood her cuz she used to be over the top in her youth...now I get it (that laughter).
Ru was 33 here. Hardly ‘youth’ lol
@@RockinDaBoombox this is a joke right?? 33 is still young 😂
I love how Ru dosen't even care of the crowd being dead sh'es just having fun.
why is the crowd so salty? I'd give my left foot to see rupaul perform
bc it was 1993 and ppl were not familiar with rupaul nor drag
It was a different time
Because homophobia.
yandrsupreme Number 45 is impressive especially with Mariah, Whitney, MJ, Madonna, Celine and Boys II Men dominating the charts at the time. And being gay was still illegal in some states.
It's not "homophobia". Rupaul's music had a niche audience. These fans probably listen to alternative or hip hop stuff
All legs
no dairy
Necrotoria noice.
Dude.. She legit just keeps getting hotter with age. I can't get over it.. This bitch cemented a drag queens place on the runway and cleared a path for everyone else to try and be as fabulous. Unfortunately no one will ever replace this queen, she is one in a million!! 💜💙💚
Absolutely! A living legend.
Wonder how many str8 boys went home confused...and curious haha
They all were not str8
Bhagwant Singh straight people attend this kinda stuff too
It took absolute courage and balls to work that venue. Good for Rupaul for at that time to pave the way for the queens to be out today and earning that coin all the around the world.
Get those coins!
RuPaul is the very definition of Pioneer!! Amongst other wonderful things of course. Nerves of steel I will always idolise this amazing creature.
4:02 "YOUR COUNTRY BREAKFAST IS READY." IT WAS GREAT IN '93 AND IT'S WONDERFUL IN '15 ON SEASON 7
The girl on the microphone reading the winner girl lol
As plain as the nose on her face! LOL
Lol yes sooooo shady, she through the whole tree
Thats my girl, actress Vanessa A. Williams from New Jack City and Soul Food The Series. Loved the shade.
she was on melrose place
I wanna go back to the 90's :(
Rupaul's vocals are on point
The bravery on Black women never ceases to amaze me!! You better WORK 👯🏾
It's so weird that I turned the TV to MTV to see Ru for the very first time! I thought she was so beautiful, and those legs are so long!! All these years later now that she's such an amazing star, it's fun to go back and see how far she's come! Love you Ru!! 😍😍
Time travel.
@@PopLunchTV So many great memories!! 😍😍
This proves that Rupaul can sing why lip sync when you can really sing.
Here we can see the RuPaul in her natural habitat. Longtime studies and research on this majestic creature have yet to identify any single flaw and have yet to answer the question of HOW THE FAWK DID SHE GET THOSE LEGS MY GAWWWWWDDDD
He dumbass
I had this on tape in the 90s and used to rewind 8:20 over and over again. Rupaul tripping over one of the swimsuit girls LOL.
I'm a 27 year old woman and after all these years I've finally decided to sit down and binge watch RuPaul's Drag Race. I knew he was a big deal but I had NO idea it was this serious!!! I've heard this song so many times and didn't know it was RuPaul lol Giving pioneer realness! YOU BETTA WORK! 💖
Game-changer.
omg. the SHADE from everyone.
Like a supermodel ❤
Lord, these was some good times. I was 17 watching this in 93. Omg. The good and the best times
This is so painful to watch. That crowd.
Dresden219 right., they didn’t know what to do....
I remember watching this performance by Rupaul. I was twelve years old at the time. Wow , time flies.
Those were the days...
"The winner was as clear as the nose on her face" shade lol
Ikr I was looking for this comment
Aw how nice of Ru to fix the girl's sash for her. It was bothering me that it was upside down lol.
I stayed till the end just to watch that 😄 Thanks!
Haha no problem. It was a cute moment.
Legs for days; the woman that won know she was jealous of them long, beautiful legs.
93' bitches, Ru was performing at spring breaks, before drag was a 'thing' she was doing her things, so don't EVER come for her or you will be slaughtered! She is the Queen of Drag, don't ever forget it either.
@The_Terror 6 years ago; 6 whole fucking years ago dude….seriously are you that butt hurt?
I love the 90´s...Ever!!!!
the crowd was shook!!!!!!!
Those legs.
I love this song til this very day. My line name when I crossed into my sorority is Shashay Shante! 1993. Ru changed the game.
The sound at this for 93' is incredible
Every time I listen to old RuPaul I am taking back in Time. Thank you RU
OMG I can't believe this is on here! I remember watching it live, and it's when I became a Ru fan! Went RIGHT out and bought her cassette tape! Those pigtails sold it.
On cassette. Respect.
Massive respect to the trailblazer who broke all the thorns on the path, with his body so that we can walk without pain today.
Thank you Sir.
YASSSSSS MAMA RU THE THINGS SHE DID FOR THIS COMMUNITY I SWEAR :)
I actually remember watching this as a kid when it debuted in 1993. I felt like then I saw it differently. I thought because Ru had this surprisingly big dance hit, everybody was feeling it. But watching it as an adult I see that only some of the audience was feeling it and the mainstream still had a ways to go with accepting a drag performer's ascent to success. But look a Ru now. A bona fide superstar with a hit TV series and mass acceptance, especially among the younger LGBT audience.
i was thirteen when this was on, loved it then, love it now.
HOLY SHIT!!! Rupaul tucked that shit real good,CHANTE,CHANTE..Go girl🤩🤩🤩
Today is the first time ever that I watch this clip and I am GAGGED. If I were part of that crowd I'd be going CRAZY throughout Ru's performance.
The fact she was 50 years old here and looks amazing is a testament to all dinosaurs around the world. #SaveADragQueen.
So I'm not the only one that noticed how awkward the crowd was when this first aired. It was painful, but have to commend the crowd of teens and 20 year olds being on their best behavior lol
This is a truly amazing video. Such a different time.
SUCH AN ICON IT MAKES ME HAPPY
Moments before this I was sitting inside of the Marriott in a quiet spot reading the newspaper. Ru came up to me and asked if I happened to have a giant lollipop. I didn't and I felt so bad that I couldn't help. He was so nervous.
I don't know if I'm more amazed at how different Gilbert looks now or at how Ru hasn't even ages since then
love her laugh
She was the best thing to come out of the 90s, by far.
She is absolutely fabulous..that body is just perfect..a goddess.. Only a diva could walk smiling and not giving a toss about the dead crowd!!! God bless you Ru ❤️🙏🏻💪🏻
The winner was almost naked, she couldn't even move
I don't think most of audience was feeling it at that time .. if he did that now he would get a standing ovation!!
Awesome performer
She is Sso DIVA!!!
When I listen the the song, I receive much power!!! ^^
Killer legs, amazing performance! Wow!
Rupaul is suchhhh an icon!!!!!!!♡
The song still sounds great in 2020. Much admiration for RuPaul who has managed to look better than 90% of women while entertaining us throughout the years. I just wonder what the man eats to remain so thin?
Some credit goes to Eric Kupper, producer of the song.
Trailblazer burnin it HOT!!!! Culture shock!!!
Yes, those kids partying at the beach had no idea what was about to hit 'em!
When life was free and Fun!!!
I'd like to see how those guys and girls competing look like now!
now we know where chachki got the waist and naomi smalls her legs
I still remember this outfit from 93
Omg Ru Paul the Performer... This is priceless!!!!
His legs are so looong 🤩
I remember this when I was a kid and it’s a performance that will always stick in my mind for some reason
The MTV Spring Break was always so OTT silly. Total Guilty Pleasure viewing.
She was fierce.
Why am I just seeing this video now!? Omg! 😮😮😮 Rupaul is such an inspiration!!! ❤️❤️❤️
#werk!!!
I was one year old when this video was made.. WOW!!
The crowd was not ready!
I’m in love😍 yaaaassss Rupaul!!!!!! If this was today I bet everybody would be dancing and jumping( still great♥️♥️♥️♥️
i love you Rupaul.....
I performed in drag once (so much money and time involved that I just don't have spare) AND I SWEAR. If my crowd was even HALF as dead, I'd have ran off. She rocked it. My crowd loved the music I was lip-syncing so were giving me all the love.
Fair play to her. Would she even make it past the first Maxi-challenge that RuGirls face? prolly not - that's not everything though.
What a difference between audience then and now
Imagine if that performance was today 😳 my god ppl would go crazy…
Rupaul was letting them have it......... lov it even back then ..
The audience just couldn't get into this at all.
Simply uncomfortable. Different times but as others pointed out, it,d be a different energy and even that is debatable simply because people are head first in their phone's at concerts
That crowd was lame, but they used to be like that with all the singers/groups on stage. There's one with TLC singing _Hat 2 the Back_ and _What about your friends_ and the crowd was DEAD, even tho those songs were upbeat as upbeat can be.
@@EzequielFerrari22 omg i read the words hat 2 the back and now the song is stuck in my head
@@laker_12 LOL! Yes, that song is awesome! I'm gonna listen to it right now!
I love you RuPaul. I was in first grade watching you on television.
everytime i watch this omg, THE SHADE @ QUEEN OF ThE BEACh
People talks about RuPaul but the real star is that beautiful winner in flag suit
Wow! Ru was so ahead of her time!! Fierce and work bitch are as natural now as peanut butter and jelly! Respect!
UNDISPUTED ICON
ESSENTIAL REFERENCE
CREATOR OF A 'BRAND'
love her cute giggles
im cry because im have 2 years and Ru Paul shining to the worl. My boyfrient dont born OMG kkkk !
"The mystery around RuPaul will remain unsolved." "Don't ovulate, RuPaul." I am really curious where that guy is now.
I had heard Troy Taylor was a homosexual
Ed Lover is still doing interviews and stuff. Think he was on Verzuz recently. Interesting.
Amazing how far Rupaul has come. He deserves everything he has gotten he's worked very hard for many years, and he has helped start other careers. If that isn't spreading wealth, I don't know what is!
I just LOVRE Rupaul’s giggle, so adorable 🥰
I love this guy!
this is so ahead of its time
I remember I was so young watching and loving every second of this. MTV used to be so much fun to watch during Spring Break. Gecko gear on Doritos and big gulp in hand watching Mtv Spring Break ❤
