That's not a fair comparison - lots of drag queens look totally different without the warpaint and wigs. Actually, I think he's a good looking bloke too. There was a rumour at APS that the famous distressedjeans was/is in fact RuPaul.

Yeah, he's not a bad looking fella.

I must say he looks a bit ill in the "Now" pic. I mean, he's only 45 and his cheeks look way too gaunt. He did make a great "she" though.

Does he still do drag? He is handsome both ways!!

Are you serious?

I remember when I was younger I use to watch Sabrina the teenage witch

and Ru Paul guest starred in an episode once as a man and a woman, he looked great as both but I think he looks awful in that now pic, he reminds me of Marc Anthony!!

And whats all this distressedjeans stuff about???

Handsome man, esp. with the facial hair. In the blonde wig, he looks like Joan Rivers after falling asleep in a tanning bed!

He looks great, man or woman (though not so much in that tabloid pic)

I agree with those who said he looks ill, the current face is very sunken and wrinkled and that is just not your black man of that age. I would not be shocked to hear that he has AIDS or some other disease.

**thrpschr** · January 10th, 2006, 10:14 AM

AIDS doesn't sound entirely unlikely, sadly. "After years of drug-fuelled clubbing...", and that'd be in the eighties, of course. I think he's gorgeous - and look at the way he matched the shirt and tie with his tweed jacket in the current pic! - but he does loook ill.

Not positive, but I think the pics at the top of the famous people site are her. I've also seen some headless pics of her as she modeled some t-shirts on one of the other sites. I'm with tiki, I'm thinking a mid 30's blonde with kids and a great sense of humor.
