Ladies, start your engines \u201d\u201c because we are going to break down the reality TV phenomenon that is RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race<\/em>! For starters, if you aren\u2019t familiar with RuPaul Charles, he is considered to be the most commercially successful drag queen of all time. He has gained popularity for his club tracks too, like Cover Girl<\/em>, Jealous of My Boogie<\/em> and Main Event<\/em>.<\/p>\n

What is RuPaul’s Drag Race<\/em>?<\/h3>\n

So, the show sees glamazon drag royalty RuPaul judging a batch of drag hopefuls as they seek to be America\u2019s Next Drag Superstar. They\u2019ll be judged on their creativity skills, their comedy, how polished their look is and each week presents a new challenge. It’s kind of like Project Runway<\/em>, a comedy roast and a make-up challenge all rolled into one beautiful package.<\/p>\n

The contestants have access to a workroom where they can perfect their art. Ru will give out advice and will check in to see what his girls are planning on showcasing. When it comes to the runway, RuPaul judges the execution of looks alongside Michelle Visage, Carson Kressley, Ross Mathews and a special guest in the most recent seasons of the show. Previous guest judges have included Debbie Harry of Blondie, Khloe Kardashian and La Toya Jackson.<\/p>\n
