RuPaul to Get Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

· Updated on May 28, 2018

Our favorite kitty girl is about to get one of Hollywood’s top honors.

Originally announced in June, RuPaul’s entry into the Hollywood Walk of Fame will officially happen on March 16, when the queen and creator of RuPaul’s Drag Race will get her star.

The ceremony is set to take place one day after the Drag Race All Stars 3 finale and the premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 10.

RuPaul’s star will be near people like Star Trek stars Leonard Nimoy and George Takei, Hollywood legends Debbie Reynolds, Harrison Ford, and the Monkees. Other people given a star this year include Ryan Murphy, Jennifer Lawrence, Lynda Carter, Eric McCormack, Shonda Rhimes, and Snoop Dogg.

The star caps off a banner year for the drag queen. Drag Race won three Emmys in September, and since the New Year she’s had a sit down with Oprah and announced she’d produce and star in her own film.

Come thru, Mama!
