Born RuPaul Andre Charles, he got his start as a musician, dancer, actor and underground filmmaker in Atlanta. He also started doing drag, making a name for himself (going by only his first name) as a beautiful, blonde, 6'7" (plus heels!) queen in the south and, later, New York, where Rupaul became a regular fixture at the annual Wigstock festival. Then in 1993, she released her debut album on Tommy Boy. Surprising industry insiders, the album was a hit, spawning the Billboard-charting single "Supermodel (You Better Work)" and turning RuPaul into a household name. She parlayed that fame into a remake of "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" with Elton John, a MAC modeling contract, an autobiography and a long-running VH1 talk show. None of the six albums that followed (including a rerelease of the soundtrack to <I>Starrbooty</I>, an underground film from Ru's Atlanta days) did as well as her debut. But in 2009, the diva ascended into the pop cultural pantheon again with the hit show <I>RuPaul's Drag Race</I>, a Top Model-style reality contest for drag performers. - Rachel DevittDance Popen720Sun, 27 Dec 2009 07:01:47 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.1442&rws=%2Frupaul%2Fmusic-videos.rss You may know RuPaul as perhaps the world's most famous drag queen, but she's won a few more hats (and wigs) over the course of her career.
