The iconic drag queen’s talk show is on the final leg of a three-week test run with Fox. But the world needs this show, produced by World of Wonder, even after pride month. This isn’t Charles’ first time at the talk show rodeo. He hosted The RuPaul Show on VH1 from 1996 to 1998. Donned in full drag, he and best Judy, Michelle Visage, were changing the face of television long before RuPaul’s Drag Race. “For me, the talk show has never...

Ellen kicked off Pride Month today with a really gay episode. The episode was so gay it didn’t even make sense, but it didn’t have to. First, she introduced a segment about parents sending kids to camp. Whitney Houston’s “Greatest Love of All” – a song that RuPaul once referred to as a “drag queen classic” – started to play to introduce the segment, and Ellen started lipsyncing. Then a drag queen came out from backstage and lipsynced with Ellen. The segment...

Sasha Velour, season 9’s winner, set the tone with her iconic glove-and-wig reveal that left her showered in flower petals. The...
