RuPaul doll launch featured RuPaul - out of drag

RuPaul doll launch featured RuPaul - out of drag You could practically hear the collective gasp at the launch of the RuPaul Doll at the Arcadia Gallery in New York when the legendary singer/actor RuPaul arrived - out of drag, showing up as RuPaul Andre Charles, the man beneath the make-up. While many were saddened he left his heels at home, the Mike Ruiz's larger-than-life doll photographs on the gallery walls were a great distraction. Billed as the first transvestite fashion doll you should be able to find the RuPaul Doll collection in stores later this month, with each doll's suggested retail price tag at $59.99. Expect the branding of RuPaul to continue. RuPaul greeting cards, wrapping paper and gift bags are apparently on the way.�
