In his acceptance speech Sunday night, RuPaul said, “Thanks to all of our lovely children on our show from around the world. They are so gracious to tell their stories of courage and how to navigate this difficult life, even more difficult today. This is for you, and for all you kids out there watching: you have a tribe that is waiting for you.”
“Come on to Mama Ru!” he concluded.
RuPaul will have plenty of opportunities to expand his record. Last month, VH1 announced that the network has greenlit “RuPaul’s Drag Race” Season 14, a new season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race: Untucked” and a second season of RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race.”
There are also international versions of the show, including in the U.K., Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Spain and the Philippines.
