I think he was acting shady must be from Belinda's attitude back stage with people like Michelle Viage. Michelle says that she was very cold and mean. Maybe that's why he put her on the spot

[@JDhappy81]

I saw the interview with Michelle where she described Belinda as 'Cold', not mean. It sounded like Belinda just didn't engage in conversation with her, she could have been having a really bad day, or gotten some bad news but had to carry on with her promotion. Its life. Doesn't mean she was being a cunt.

[@zakkxx1]

Who the shade!! Ahaha she didn’t write b nothing lol!! Ru got her lol! I came here after I watched the episode of Michelle on hey qween lol

[@foul-mouthfarrah1158]

Oh Please! That didn't bother Belinda one bit LOL. She was the creative mind behind starting the Go-Go's and now they are entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. She wasn't bothered.

[@anon1325]

Michelle never wrote the songs she sang. She was in a girl group and never wrote any of the songs on the album. RuPaul wouldn't put anyone down for not writing a song if his best friend doesn't. You all are very dramatic, I tell ya. Sad. Belinda did say she wrote two songs on the album when RuPaul asked her. How many songs did Michelle write?

[@MrStevensacc]

ru is soo shady..she knew belinda didn't write most of her songs and she chose to put her on the spot like that

[@AnimatingDreams]

she did it because Belinda have been acting very unpolitely towards the cast backstage, especially Michelle Visage

[@anon1325]

Yea whatever, Michelle never wrote the songs she sang either. Ru just being himself. Just another drama queen here making something out of nothing. Ru seemed nice to me. Belinda did say she wrote 2 songs on the album when asked. So where's the shade? Michelle didn't write any songs.

[@anon1325]

Wouldnt you go and sit next to the Host? Like wouldn't you head over to them and then can present you with a seat? She was either blind or being stupid for sure.

Michelle never wrote her songs when she sang for her group Seduction. Every song she sang, she never wrote them. I doubt RuPaul was picking on Belinda. I mean, Belinda did say she wrote 2 songs on the album when asked. So where's the shade? Michelle didn't write any songs.

[@mirsey93]

Michelle saying Belinda acted "c*nty" on set for this interview I can TOTALLY see it. She seemed very low energy, like she didn't really care to be there. I can only imagine what she was like backstage.

[@JDhappy81]

Michelle described Belinda as 'cold', like she disengaged in conversation with her. Perhaps she was having a really bad day and didn't feel like talking. Perhaps she found Michelle annoying if she was being to over the top with adoration? Belinda seems pretty low key. I can't see her being mean, if anything maybe quiet. She didn't record Pop songs again after this even 25 years later... maybe she was just sick of the whole promotional thing. Who knows x

[@foul-mouthfarrah1158]

Well Belinda was on coke at the time. That stuff doesn't really make you the nicest. If you follow Belinda on Facebook and Instagram she comes off very down to Earth now. Asking Belinda if she writes her own songs is not something I am sure she cares about being asked. She was the creative mind behind starting the Go-Go's and now they are entering the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

[@anon1325]

Belinda was on coke at the time. Probably came rolling in from an all night binge.

[@JonnyWatch]

Actually Belinda wasn’t on coke at this point - according to her memoir, she wasn’t passionate about this record because she wanted to work with Rick Nowels and her label head wouldn’t let him produce, so she was forced to work with other producers and songwriters. The album had also already tanked in Europe and she wasn’t happy coming back to the U.S. - she openly admits that she was miserable during this era and wasn’t upbeat/positive. I could see how that could read as being bitchy, but I don’t think she was malicious to anyone.

[@Mntguy-nr9vl]

Belinda was doing so many drugs at this point it's sad. She was a hardcore drug user for a good 20 years.

[@josephirizarry5195]

LOL RuPaul's volcanic laughter during the interview; he's just waiting to shiv Belinda

[@AgentF84s]

How can Virgin america not release this album in 1996 when it was a big hit in Europé

[@elijahcambry3319]

She didn’t have a contract with virgin. She had a one album deal with them in the United States and that album was a flop and they dropped her. American audiences weren’t interested in that kind of music anymore and even less in the type of music that appeared on the “a woman and a man” record Which wasn’t even up to Belinda’s standards because it was released without her permission before it was finished

[@anon1325]

So RuPaul admitting he couldn't sing a song is in return a shade to Belinda? OK, That makes no sense. Do you know what "Butchered" means? It means he tried to sing the song right but his vocals came out wrong. Really can't comprehend how that is a shade to Belinda.

Not sure what everyone is yammering on about this being a bad interview and Ru being shady. seemed fine to me. But i do remember Michelle talking about this on a podcast once or something saying how Belinda was rude and cold to her backstage and Michelle was a huge fan of hers. I can understand how that would upset her. I am saying this as a huge Go Go's/Belinda fan BTW. Wasn't Belinda still battling the drug demons back then?

@@foul-mouthfarrah1158 Ru CONTINUOUSLY put her rude ass on blast & made the situation awkward af for her look at her face, the way her voice shakes & that nervous giggle she does. Michelle and Ru are still relevant 20+ years later, CURRENTLY on one of the biggest reality tv shows in the world Winning Emmy’s meanwhile Belinda is old and washed up and the only people checking for her are other old white people 💀

[@foul-mouthfarrah1158]

@@GringoTearz Nope. You're wrong. Fame comes and goes and Michelle will only have reruns of the RuPaul show to stay relevant. Belinda is forever in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. You're not very good at reading human behavior. AND! If you're saying Belinda's music sucks then you're saying Michelle's taste in music sucks because Belinda was her idol... 🤷 Not to mention Belinda is very active in supporting gay rights too. Her son is gay and very relevant in the gay community and had Nine West on his channel - a RuPaul alum. Belinda still teams up with her son, James Duke Mason, and talks about raising her gay son, he talks about coming out, it's all love and support. You sound more bitter than she does. And she's old, so you say. You shouldn't be more bitter than old people. That's sad. Belinda did say she wrote two songs on the album when RuPaul asked her. How many songs did Michelle write?

[@anon1325]

@@GringoTearz First of all, Michelle never wrote her songs either when she sang for her group Seduction. All the songs she sang, she never wrote them, so if you say Belinda sucks for not writing songs, then Michelle does too. Find me a video with Michelle Visage in it that has 20+ million views like Belinda's "Heaven is a Place on Earth" - Talk about being "dead" 💀 Oh wait! I bet you can find views that are close to that many (15 million) if you search RUPAUL!!! The name she coat-tailed off of. 'Seduction' the group Michelle was in, their music video with the most views is 1 million and posted the same year Belinda's was. Belinda's 23 million views vs. Seduction's 1 million views 🤣🤣🤣 Yea Seduction might had a 1 hit too but that song had to coat-tail off of 4 others songs they sampled from. Same for when she sang for The S.O.U.L. S.Y.S.T.E.M. 's "It's Gonna Be a Lovely Day - another song that had to coat-tail of another song for a sample. All these songs are just one hit wonders unlike Belinda. Michelle couldn't even come up with her own style. Madonna had to send her a cease and desist. Belinda was her own style, was a sex symbol of her time. And she's a gay icon. I understand Michelle is too, I will give her credit. I think she deserves to be one for all her support in the gay community. There's a reason why Belinda was Michelle's icon because Belinda is an icon. Michelle was not relevant 20+ years ago. She was a nobody even when she was a singer. Belinda was the GUEST STAR on RuPaul's show not Michelle. So if Michelle was relevant 20+ years ago then why was Belinda the GUEST STAR and not Michelle? Find me as many interviews with Michelle as a guest star as there were with Belinda in that time frame you're talking about (20+ years ago). You must not have style or you would know a lot of young people listen to old music, too. Even young singers today who write new music listen to old music. Watch a Taylor Swift interview or a Miley Cyrus interview or a Cardi B interview or any of those young artist and learn who inspires them. You want to know who, they're artist you say only old white people are following. Michelle was in a one-hit-wonder girl group and Belinda was in a successful all girl band and a successful solo singer. Michelle tried and never gained success like Belinda, so she had to coat-tail off of RuPaul's fame. Belinda created her own fame without help from anyone. When Michelle starts to get old, well, RuPaul really (who's only 2 years younger than Belinda) and he's ready to retire, then Michelle will be a has been too, and Belinda's music will out live a reality show. Belinda Carlisle at least had top ten hits, number 1 hit, along with The Go-Go's had number one hit, the album went number one (no other all-female band has accomplished this except The Go-Go's, a band Belinda started). And Belinda will be going into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. Michelle never had a hit as a solo artist. Yea Michelle is a Emmy award winner but again, if it wasn't for RuPaul, she wouldn't have that job. And being a judge on Drag Race is a one trick pony act. The show will have it's end someday and reruns of reality shows are not as fun as listening to music, music is more timeless than a reality show.
