Most popularly known for 'RuPaul's Drag Race', RuPaul comes to Netflix with a comedy that he described as having dark themes. The drag star told Vanity Fair, “This show isn’t about a drag queen in a kid's show. This is about a kid in a drag queen’s show. It’s edgy, and it has some dark themes in there. It was something I was eager to explore. To prove to myself that I’m not dead inside. I proved to myself that I could pull those emotions up. It’s intoxicating.”
RuPaul said the idea for the show arose from Drag Race’s increasing audience of “13-year-old suburban white girls.” RuPaul leads the series as Robert Lee, a performing artist known by his drag name, Ruby Red, who has dreams of opening a club of his own before a hustler scams him out of his life savings, forcing him to hit the road to make extra cash at clubs around the country — all with a stowaway 10-year-old girl (Izzy G.) in tow.
Don't miss the Queen's contribution to the comedy entertainment industry, from stage to performance, fans, as are we are looking forward to RuPaul giving us another gem.
