Wednesday, July 27, 2005 Hello Rupaul,I am a new drag queen & you are one of my biggest Role model i look up to you soo much & i was woundering if you could give me any tips or advice about Drag queening. thanks SOOO much!!!!!! Rhinestone Days and gold dust nights, Trinity Primadonna trinity, you're very kind to say such lovely things, thank you. i wish there was a crash course in glamazon, but there isn't. it just takes practice, practice, practice! take pictures and learn from them. be willing to make mistakes, (and trust me, there will be some) but don't beat yourself up over them... have fun! it's about celebrating life with a sense of humor and savior faire. here are just a few tips: 1. choose a name that flows and rolls off the tongue. something clever, but not too complicated. 2. never wear your own hair. if you have a nice hairline (one that is not receding), you can pump a hairpiece or a fall. 3. never wear mens attire while in drags...ie, your daytime glasses, an overcoat, slacks (unless you are padded) or sneakers or flat shoes. 4. always feature false eye lashes. 5. always serve a full coverage foundation set with powder. 6. never be clocked eating food while in drags. 7. never respond to someone who yells "hey slim!" out of a passing car. 8. never lip-sync slow ballads unless you have at least 3 years of "showgurl" experience. 9. shave your eyebrows off completely and paint them on properly! 10. most importantly, be kind. there are enough "bitchy queens". you better work, rupaul . | Permalink 2009 RuCo, Inc.—All Rights Reserved |
