An oral history of 'Drag Race' offers devotees of the RuPaul show all of the blood, sweat, tears, breastplates, and duct tape tales that was fit to print.
RuPaul’s Drag Race
One such revelation comes in the book’s second chapter—each numbered chapter breaks down a different season of the show—when Season 2 contestant Jujubee admits to being blackout drunk during a famous “Lip Sync for Your Life” performance. Jujubee and the other queens on set started imbibing while cameras were rolling earlier in the day, asking for “a little liquid courage” before their episode’s main challenge: a live performance of a rock cover of one of RuPaul’s songs.
Season 2 judge Merle Ginsberg says in the book that both the judges and the producers were aware of Jujubee’s worsening condition as filming went on. Producer Chris McKim admitted to feeling terrible as they watched the effects of the alcohol provided to the contestants start to take effect. “It was a disaster and it was an awful day,” McKim remembers. “I was just sinking in my chair because I felt so awful and so responsible because I approved the drinking.
