What Miss Fame Really Thinks About The RuPaul And Pearl Controversy
David Mccullough The moment in question is the interaction between none other than RuPaul herself and Season 7 contestant Pearl. While speaking with Pearl, RuPaul wasn't happy with her attitude, and it led to an awkward moment that ended with Pearl asking if she had something on her face because of the way Ru was looking at her. In the end, she spoke out about how comments made off-camera also played a role in their strained relationship, citing that RuPaul was disrespectful to her (via Attitude UK).
Miss Fame, who was on the show the same season, told Gay Times UK that stress likely played a major role in the moment between Ru and Pearl. "Everyone's allowed to express their feelings, and being on the show is psychological," Fame explained. "You're literally put under a magnifying glass, you're not hearing what you wanna hear, I was always feeling like they weren't seeing me, and I got very insecure on the show."
Miss Fame continued that she understands where Pearl was coming from because she experienced similar feelings of self-doubt. "So when they push you, and they pressure cook you, part of it is for good television," Fame continued. "It only makes it stronger to see you hit a wall and bypass the wall. And if you can't get past the wall, you don't stay on the show."
Ultimately, Miss Fame sympathizes with Pearl's situation, and we don't blame her.
