RuPaul won for outstanding host for a reality or competition program at Saturday's Creative Arts Emmys, breaking Jeff Probst's previous record for wins in the category with a fifth straight Emmy.
In a pre-recorded video speech, RuPaul appeared in drag from the set of his show, and thanked the Academy, adding, "every time I bat my false eyelashes I'm making a political statement.
Tonight, the only political statement I want to make is this: love. Love for our LGBTQ brothers and sisters, love for Black queens and brown queens and love for the United States of America where a little gay boy with nothing more than a pussycat wig and a dream can build an international platform that celebrates sweet sensitive souls everywhere." RuPaul also.
