RuPaul BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
RuPaul has remained front and center in pop culture these past few days with the upcoming premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Series 7 on September 25, a date which has already stirred buzz among fans and the wider entertainment press according to Attitude Magazine. This next season will showcase 12 new queens as they vie for the coveted UK’s next drag superstar title, with RuPaul, as ever, presiding alongside regular judges Michelle Visage, Alan Carr, and Graham Norton, plus a lineup of celebrity guest judges including Nadine Coyle and Jane Horrocks. Applications for Drag Race UK Series 8 have officially opened, and producers emphasize the search for bold, creative new talent—a mainstay of RuPaul’s brand and, judging by the volume of social chatter, a perennial headline-grabber in the queer and entertainment press.
Stateside, the Drag Race juggernaut powers on with the Werq the World Tour and regular show dates in major venues like the Flamingo Showroom in Las Vegas and a cross-country slate of dates just announced into fall 2025 per American Arenas and AXS. While RuPaul himself isn’t headlining each live appearance, his signature is unmistakable in every set, costume, and sassy ad-lib, and his official social media accounts continue to amplify clips, memes, and previews from both the UK series and the US-based tours.
For business watchers, RuPaul’s estimated net worth now sits at a cool $60 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth via AOL, thanks not only to Drag Race but to expanding product lines like his House of Love canned cocktails, real estate, and ongoing music royalties. The cocktail line, launched with World of Wonder and Svedka, pops up frequently in RuPaul’s posts, especially tied to DragCon events and pride celebrations in major cities.
Emmy whispers and drag-adjacent headlines keep adding to RuPaul’s considerable media presence, particularly as Drag Race alums make waves—like Utica’s recent triumph on Project Runway, lauded in Entertainment Weekly online. And over in the UK theatre scene, Jan Sport, a Drag Race favorite, just announced her debut in the glam-punk spectacle Oscar at the Crown, as reported by Matinee Musicals, bringing more RuPaul alumni front and center in West End discourse.
Amid the ongoing tour, the launch of a new Drag Race UK season, and continuous business expansions, RuPaul’s status as a global drag icon and entertainment mogul is as unshakable as ever—with every tweet, ticket drop, and headline reinforcing his staying power on the world stage. No significant controversies or unconfirmed rumors have surfaced in the past several days; the focus remains on new creative ventures and RuPaul’s enduring rule over the world of drag and reality TV.
