FOREWORD BY JANE FONDA A timeless collection of philosophies from renaissance performer and the worlds most famous shape-shifter RuPaul, whose sage outlook has created an unprecedented career for more than thirty-five years. GuRu is packed with more than 80 beautiful photographs that illustrate the concept of building the life you want from the outside in and the inside out. "Youre born naked and the rest is drag." As someone who has deconstructed lifes hilarious facade, RuPaul has broken "the fourth wall" to expand on the concept of mind, body, and spirit. This unique perspective has allowed RuPaul to break the shackles of self-imposed limitations, but reader beware, this is a daily practice that requires diligence and touchstones to keep you walking in the sunshine of the spirit. Once youre willing to look beyond the identity that was given to you, a hidden world of possibilities will open its doors. Throughout the history of humans on this planet, thereve always been shaman, seers, and mediums who are able to interpret both high and low frequencies and remind humans to look beyond the surface for the truth of who we really are. And who we really are is an extension of the power that created the universe (aka: God in drag). FYI: most people are not willing to hear or accept that. That is RuPauls secret for success, not only in show business, but in all aspects of life, especially in navigating the emotional landmines that inhibit most sweet, sensitive souls. If you think this book is just about "doing drag," you are sorely mistaken because for RuPaul, drag is merely a device to deactivate the identity-based ego and allow space for the unlimited.

I stayed up much too late playing DnD last night (and by late I mean midnight 😅) and between that and Daylight Savings Time I feel useless and unmotivated today. Since I can't focus on reading I'm playing Animal Crossing and watching UK Drag Race.

DinoMom Love drag race UK 2y
GondorGirl @DinoMom We don't have cable TV, so I have to wait until I can find it online. I'm excited to finally see the third season! 2y
Texreader Sounds like an awesome weekend to me 2y
DinoMom @GondorGirl same here, I haven‘t seen third season yet. 2y

Absolutely love this book despite not being a proper book book, more of a photography/coffee table kind of thing. It‘s filled with page after page of gorgeous photos of the lovely RuPaul.
Filled with little insights in to her life and the humour some parts give, it‘s perfect for any time you need a little pick me up!

Loved this! Ru is fierce! This is more of what I would call a ‘coffee table book‘, full of inspirational quotes and quick short stories of her journey. It is also full of so many beautiful photos. For a quick read, I really enjoyed it! And as Ru says, If you can‘t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?‘

Can I get an Amen up in here?? 🙏❤️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

britt_brooke That cover is fabulous! 5y
StellaDz @britt_brooke it is full of images just like it! It is an amazing cover! ❤️❤️ 5y

Reading RuPaul's new book.

jmofo Is it weird I‘m always offering something to bring but I don‘t want to go to any parties? 5y
Maewyn @jmofo 😂 Nope, I like baking things but I rarely like parties. Would I enjoy it better than sitting at home with my book? No? Then I usually won't go. 😆 (edited) 5y
Maewyn A few pages over RuPaul says he is an introvert masquerading as an extrovert and that between shots he likes to conserve his energy for when the cameras are rolling. 5y

Sitting and practicing just being today. Thanks Ru. The kids germs have taken me out. I can‘t concentrate enough to focus on a book. So I‘m reading about books, in People magazine. There is no way I‘m always going to wear heels though. Lol
