RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 15 cast member, Princess Poppy, showed up to the reunion special wearing none other than Rebecca Glasscock’s infamous season 1 entrance look. I say bring back the casual jeans and t-shirt entrance looks. We’ve strayed so far from our roots.

SeriesFest is presenting the Impact in Television Award to RuPaul’s Drag Race and its producers, Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey of World of Wonder. With the ongoing backlash against drag performers, it’s wonderful to see the show get the credit it deserves.
