The mantle of glamour has been taken from the women and given to the men. The women toil in their shadows, plain and ordinary-looking. So that transition has left a void.

The only thing they have to do is work the runway, sweetie, and refuse to get out of bed for less than ten thousand dollars.
RuPaulWhat other people think of me is not my business. What I do is what I do. How people see me doesn't change what I decide to do. I don't choose projects so people don't see me as one thing or another. I choose projects that excite me.

RuPaulDon't take life too seriously and have fun. Don't waste your time on things that your ego will try and convince you are important.
