News broke yesterday that the top House Democrat, Nancy Pelosi, is slated to appear as a guest judge on the upcoming third season of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars.
Previous judges on Drag Race have run the gamut, but a top-seated member from the House of Representatives is definitely an all-time high for the show.
The many, many notable past guest judges have included: Paula Abdul, Pamela Anderson, Eve, Ariana Grande, Neil Patrick Harris, Kathy Griffin, Debbie Harry, Khloé Kardashian, La Toya Jackson, Adam Lambert, Demi Lovato, Bob Mackie, Rose McGowan, Olivia Newton-John, Rebecca Romijn, Gigi Hadid, Sharon Osbourne, Dan Savage, John Waters, Michelle Williams, Candis Cayne, Martha Wash, Natalie Cole, Dita Von Teese, Niecy Nash, Debbie Reynolds, Vanessa Williams, Wilmer Valderrama, The Pointer Sisters, Trina, Leah Remini, Paula Abdul, The B-52's, Kesha, and Lady Gaga.
Seeing those names all together helps you realize how long the show has been on, and what talent they’ve had judging all those men in wigs.
While Pelosi might seem like a bizarre choice to be a guest judge, the congresswoman, whose district includes San Francisco, has been a longtime supporter of the LGBT community. Besides, she also knows a thing or two about wearing heels. (You’d be hard-pressed to find any footage of her without wearing a lovely pair of pumps.)
All we can say, is we are ready for All Star season!
