These Gay Icons Have Declined Appearing on 'RuPaul's Drag Race'

Michelle Visage revealed a few of the icons who've turned down 'RuPaul's Drag Race' over the years.

RuPaul's Drag Race, the beloved reality drag competition series, has featured a slew of beloved A-D list celebrities over the years — but there are a few stars who are still out of their grasp. 

In a new interview with HuffPost, longtime Drag Race judge Michelle Visage revealed a handful of women that have turned down appearances on the show, mostly due to scheduling conflicts. But even though they couldn't secure these A-Listers, they've scored some major wins over the years like Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, and Mother Monster herself Lady Gaga. "It took years to get Gaga, but we got her," Visage explained.

Dolly Parton

"Just to let everybody know we have asked Dolly Parton for 11, 12, 13 years," Michelle shared. "At the end of the day it’s scheduling, and it’s a very long day for these people."

Madonna

The Material Girl herself, who has inspired multiple runway challenges, has yet to appear on Drag Race.

Liza Minnelli

The legendary Cabaret star, who Alexis Michelle channeled for Snatch Game in season 9, also hasn't yet graced the Drag Race stage with her presence.

Cher

"We do ask Cher, we do ask Madonna, we do ask Liza, we do ask Dolly, we ask everybody, and scheduling is always the conflict," Visage said about the stars.
