André Robert Lee Looks Back on RuPaul’s Starrbooty

One of our all-time favorite wacky and wild films is RuPaul’s Starrbooty. Created during a lull in her career, Starrbooty became the launchpad for RuPaul’s career resurgence as host of RuPaul’s Drag Race, a show that mainstreamed drag so successfully it has overshadowed many other styles and interpretations of the art form. Today, Starrbooty producer and acclaimed filmmaker André Robert Lee joins us to revisit this wonderfully twisted film and discuss the challenges and triumphs of being a queer Black creative. We also dive into his other fantastic projects, including Dirty Laundry (starring Jenifer Lewis and Loretta Devine) and The Prep School Negro, a documentary which follows young Black students adventures on their way to college.

The world feels like it’s teetering on the edge of an apocalypse, or maybe just a really dramatic season finale. Lately, we've witnessed a wave of significant deaths, or things barely clinging to life: TikTok, filmmaker David Lynch, anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant, bodybuilder Chris O’Donnell, PrEP, Marriage Equality, democracy, the U.S. dollar, the Golden Globes, The Village People and yes, even Snoop Dogg’s career. But, as Florence + The Machine wisely reminds us, it’s always darkest before the dawn. Today we look at death as we celebrate 21 seasons (20 years!) of Feast of Fun with comedian Dan Cass.
