RuPaul Is Going On A Netflix Series Road Trip & Getting Animated With Drag Queen Babies

May 14, 2018 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

RuPaul is busy! Alongside the continuing & growing success of Drag Race, two new series featuring the drag superstar are in the works. The first is coming soon via Drag Race producer World Of Wonder’s new streaming platform, WOW Presents Plus. It sees RuPaul as an animated unicorn alonhside a bevy of drag queen toddlers. Those youngsters are voiced by Drag Race alums such as Bianca Del Rio as Dina Saur, Adore Delano as Roxy Moron, Latrice Royale as Lady Liber T, Detox as Donatella Mewhattodoo, and Valentina as Arugula.

The trailer for the show has arrived, which you can take a look at below. Drag Tots starts streaming on WOW Presents Plus on June 28th.

More Ru will also be coming soon, with a 10-part show that’s just been ordered by Netflix. This is a live-action outing, which comes with some other illustrious talent involved, as Sex & The City showrunner Michael Patrick King is helping brings the series to life.

According to THR the series, currently titled AJ and the Queen, ‘will follow RuPaul as Ruby Red, a bigger-than-life but down-on-her-luck drag queen who travels across America from club to club in a rundown 1990s RV with her unlikely sidekick, AJ, a recently orphaned, tough-talking, scrappy 11-year-old stowaway. As these two misfits, one tall, one small, travel from city to city, Ruby’s message of love and acceptance winds up touching people and changing their lives for the better. Oh, and RuPaul performs a killer musical number in every drag club.’

Netflix has ordered 10 hour-long episodes of the show. RuPaul and King will co-write and produce the series, although there’s no news on exactly when we’ll get to see it.

If all that weren’t enough, the drag legend is also involved in the previously announced Queen over at Hulu, loosely based on his rise from club kid to drag queen superstar.

Take a look at the announcement Tweet for AJ & The Queen, as well as the Drag Tots trailer below. [Read more…]

Hurricane Bianca Trailer – Bianca Del Rio goes a little bit Tootise in the gay-themed film

August 24, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Hurricane-Bianca-slideBianca Del Rio has used her status as a winner of Rupaul’s Drag Race to go on to bigger and better things, and that includes starring in her own star-studded movie, Hurricane Bianca. Now the trailer has arrived, having debuted over at Buzzfeed.

Things are a little bit Tootsie, with Bianca’s non-drag persona Roy Haylock starring as a teacher in Texas, who gets fired when it’s discovered he has a gay dating profile. It’s then time for a bit of revenge, with Roy returning to the school as the outrageous Bianca, who’s out to wreak a little havoc.

The great cast also includes Rachel Dratch, Alan Cumming, RuPaul, Margaret Cho, and Drag Race’s Willam Belli, Shangela, and Alyssa Edwards. There’ll be three special US cinemas screenings of the film in New York on Sept. 19th, San Fransisco on Sept. 20th , and LA on Sept. 21, followed by a Q&A with Bianca and director Matt Kugelman. It’ll then receive a worldwide digital release via Wolfe On Demand on September 23rd, and a US DVD release in October.

Watch the trailer below. [Read more…]

Starring: Natasha Lyonne, Clea DuVall, Michelle Williams, RuPaul
Director: Jamie Babbit
Running Time: 85 mins
Certificate: 15

There is nothing that seems so strange and insidious to British viewers of American culture as summer camps.  They are a phenomenon that would not be tolerated by British youth – yet the Americans seem to love them and they are commonly seen in American films and television.

But I’m a Cheerleader tells the story of Megan (Natasha Lyonne), a naïve teenager who is sent to a gay rehabilitation camp due to her seemingly deviant behavior – the joke being that she thinks that due to her being a cheerleader, she can’t be anything but ‘normal’.  However her friends and family all read the signs and decide that she’s a lesbian who needs help to be straightened out.
