I see several trannies in that video, but... what the hell is that green thing? Is someone dressing up as a new gender AND a new species?

There were no pickles... I can't tell if I'm disappointed or not.

...saw this on youtube few years ago, but I couldn't get it out of my head for months. Yes that's Rupaul before the rest of the world knew him.
Around the same time, I was introduce to stairway to stardom and Precious Taft. You're welcome
