Into The Groove: RuPaul – Supermodel Of The World

RuPaul is more than just a legendary drag queen and host of TV phenomenon RuPaul’s Drag Race. On episode 3 on Into The Groove, Richard takes an in-depth look at Ru’s original passion, and the catalyst for her breakthrough: her music. The 1993 debut album Supermodel Of The World saw Ru burst onto the scene as a fully-formed and fabulous character, full of positivity and wisdom. Dance smashes like ‘Back To My Roots’ and ‘A Shady Shady (Now Prance)’ paid tribute to Ru’s background and influences, while ‘Supermodel (You Better Work)’ became an iconic anthem of confidence and acceptance. Ru may have seemed like an overnight sensation, but the road to success was long, and the impact of her stardom is still being felt after nearly 25 years – join Into The Groove as we delve into her incredible first few years at the top.
