All-Nighter at RuPaul's Midtown Atlanta Apartment in 1986

[@ryan.s5945]

Ru was always so classy and elegant in all of Nelsons videos. You can tell she was going places even back then

[@johnmcquilkin]

So glad this video exists... Thank you Nelson Sullivan. RuPaul always a class act!

[@misapropyl9269]

omg around 4:25 ru is telling the story of how "she done already done had hers's" came to be

[@bryxxleria603]

omggg trueeee

[@fluffyhead6377]

I can’t quite hear it with the music I can’t find my headphones what does Ru say?

[@Matheussandree]

Ikr i’m so shook Nelson got to record just the moment when ru talks about it right after it actually happened

[@trailahead]

It's crazy I can't believe it actually

[@auntemmyd1604]

All of this is thanks to Nelly Nells Nelson Sullivan! Thank you from the bottom of my heart❤ wherever you are in this universe now❤. I will I could have a spec of what Ru has! It’s something special! ❤❤❤❤

[@ZMAN_420]

More Nelson on a different channel NICE! LONG LIVE THE 80s👍🏻

[@Musistics]

I can't see Ru and it's driving me nuts. Well done Nelson. Love the Cuban music too.

5:39 RuPaul's old apartment looks COMPLETELY different these days; that tree on the sidewalk and on the side of the house is still there!! Google map, Juniper St NE and 11th St NE and go to street view, purple house on the corner.. It's crazy how different it looks..

[@mariaager1924]

Looks like chiropractic office now lol

[@theblackboxclub]

Amazing what you can do with some UPvc cladding and some paint. I bet much of the good /old timber slats are stills there...! Well done finding it, btw ..thank you! - Marcus

[@francescaa8331]

Nelson, thank you, RIP.

[@allthatjazzspaz95]

I got instant flashbacks hearing ru talk about forgetting to get papers and that they’ll manage somehow… how many nights in my early 20s was i in this predicament lol

[@theblackboxclub]

Starts with an amazing rhythm, of Ru's plastic carry bags, full of the night's wigs, costume maybe.. hit against his thighs as he walks. Nelson and Ru, great combo and visuals! - Marcus

[@royblack7305]

WoW I love that Ru had a picture of Lily White on her wall . Lily was everything back then .

[@Heramitep]

Wonderful video!

[@Divinely_ProtectedAse]

It takes sleepless days and nights and hard work to become successful. I know I will make it through.

[@neldahyde]

Rupaul wearing tom's shoes before tom's were a thing , lol

[@josejesusgarcia1131]

At mark 3:50 Wilfrido Vargas - El Jardinero Music Dominican Merengue

[@enorme72]

[@mentallymorbid]

love that they were playing Spanish music!

[@robs6983]

If rupaul had INSTAGRAM LIVE back then before the age of the cell phones lol

[@skinnyvinny]

Allison Wonderland!!!

[@antlawa]

[@Itbmurr1]

Are they playing Hector Labor’s music?

[@dennybenz5846]

Thank goodness a video by Nelson sullivan this channel is all about rupaul whom I am not interested in. Nelson sullivan if he was alive would be bigger then rupaul.

[@enorme72]

Absolutely

[@evolution1013]

Wow... they loved each other... there was no issues

[@Pussy_SoCunt]

It’s like saying Nelson would have been big without filming any of these people.. it’s because of who he’s filming at a certain point in their lives ..that there is a following.. so they helped each other.

[@theblackboxclub]

@@Pussy_SoCunt I wonder if Nelson had survived, if he would have been part of the World of Wonder team... then moved onto bigger things. He had the talent and imagination, for sure...

[@valleygirltotallyforsure]

Did he pass away from the thing that took so many of our community back then?
