The Drag Race host faced backlash over the weekend when he answered a question about whether or not contestants who were transitioning were welcome on the show.
The host then went on to explain that the contestants that have been on Drag Race haven’t actually transitioned.
Another commenter pointed out that, “RuPaul’s comments on trans contestants competing on Drag Race further reveals how gay men can be viciously exclusive and transphobic in a community that we share.”
The 57-year-old LGBTQ advocate posted a second tweet saying that Drag Race has only looked for “charisma uniqueness nerve and talent,” which would “never change.”
