    RuPaul, looks absolutely fabulous for 56 years old. Never would have thought he was that age.

  • @MilieNopeNotHere
    @MilieNopeNotHere 8 лет назад +761

    The crazy thing is; he looks so manly just walking down the street with a beanie and sunglasses and he is damn classy in a suit and tie, and then he wears a dress and a wig and his whole presence changes into the most elegant, majestic, Beyoncé like fierce woman! It's crazy, RuPaul is one amazing person who seems to have found just the right balance in life!

      NIK MOR It may have come across to you as disingenuous, because he was trying to maintain his composure when saying something very emotional, at that moment. I know a lot of these popular phrases seem "cliche", but there's a reason why they're said so often; because there's truth to them.

    I've been watching Ru on Nelson Sullivan's home videos. Look up Nelson Sullivan on YT. He's known as the first vlogger of the 80's.
