RuPaul Opens Up on Hannah Montana In New Interview

Filed under: Around the Web

From NY Mag: The reality-TV genre almost defies parody (how do you invent a funnier version of Snooki than the real one, or outdo the already-outlandish America's Next Top Model?), and yet RuPaul's Drag Race nails all the jokes while still serving up a competition that's fun and gripping on its own.

And while there are a lot of skilled reality hosts on TV - and yes, we're giving American Idol's Ryan Seacrest his due - nobody can beat RuPaul's quicksilver tonal shifts: Whether he's got to gently prod one of his girls for an emotional backstory or nail her to the wall with an acerbic line reading, he always delivers. As the show heads into the home stretch of its third season, Ru rang up Vulture to discuss Drag Race's most frightening lip-syncs, the behind-the-scenes companion show Untucked, and his sympathy for The Kids Are All Right's Oscar-less Annette Bening.
