As Drag Race –and RuPaul as host– garnered 11 Emmy nominations today, Mama Ru knows what’s it’s REALLY all about…
On Instagram tonight she said,
As the basic human rights of LGBTQ+ people are being threatened once again, I want to thank our peers in the Television Academy for acknowledging the achievements of the beautiful and talented souls that work in front of and behind the cameras at RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Through the miracle of drag, our spectacular Season 14 queens have touched hearts and opened minds around the planet.
We will never take for granted the platform we’ve been given to tell authentic queer stories, and pledge to do everything in our power to continue to spread light, love, and laughter.
To our partners at World of Wonder, Paramount and VH1, thank you for having our backs every high-heeled step of the way.”
