Rupaul’s Drag Race
The reality competition to end all reality competitions, this subversive glitter bomb turns the genre on its head while basking in its spotlight. While the cat fights and catwalks are center stage, it’s Rupaul himself that truly reigns. That Mr. Charles has built himself a legitimate empire out of wigs and sequins is a beautiful miracle in and of itself. But it’s the fact that he has blossomed into such a captivating force for positive change that really astounds me. Sure, hunty can still throw as much shade as Mama June at sunset – but his overarching message of love, acceptance, and self-actualization is stronger than his eyelash glue.
