RuPaul Can Drive Any Vehicle, Including A Rainbow Bus Full Of Banned Books

[@wideawake5630]

I love Ru. I could listen to him all night. Lovely, loving, and wise. A national treasure.

[@ericapoe]

I thought he was funny on SNL.

[@dinnyf]

What a couple of wonderful human beings! I love the book bus so much!

[@jniles]

Amen 🙏

[@Sindollx666x]

Me too!!! Lovely way to put it into words. ❤

I met Rupaul once, back around 1994, after Supermodel but before his VH-1 talk show. It was at a bar in South Beach, I was a young 20 something gay twink with my little entourage without a care in the world. We were a little star struck over Ru, but Ru made a big fuss over our group of young gays and made us feel like he saw us and we were something. He was so incredibly gracious to us, I’ll never forget it. Will always be a huge fan. ☮️❤️🌈

[@batgurrl]

I adore RuPaul and his wit and wisdom. Knowledge is power is so very true. Thanks for the reminder.❤️

[@ML-xh6rd]

Now that's a t-shirt...Knowledge is Power on the front, Read a Banned Book on the back. It would sell out.

[@eleanormay729]

I just love RuPaul, he is so happy and he makes everyone else happy! He is amazing.

[@Vejur9000]

Run is so lovable. Just a positive energetic soul, destined for fame.

[@rosealee9367]

Ru adds light to every room he is in! Quite the entertainer for his audience, but also the direct eye contact with Stephen at the very end when he expresses his thanks and I love you so Stephen knows the true sincerity of his words directed to him specifically.

[@florencedelvalle8145]

I noticed that too. It was so heartfelt and genuine when he looked at Stephen and said I love you.

[@sandra-jones]

Came here to make that comment. That was A-1 Sincerity...

[@maryanndixon4365]

In a time where so many seek to hate; you've filled my soul with your love and respect for each other. Thx, I needed that.

[@sue7777]

We all should have a person in our lives like RuPaul, he brings me such a feeling of being loved for who I am. I think I need a hug!!

[@tracythayer9434]

A truly authentic person. So honest. He is so full of life and joy, it fairly shines out from him.

[@gailjacobson7088]

What strikes me from this interview is that very few guests make it to the point where they get two segments. In two segments we can really learn and appreciate the guest, and it shows their status. So happy that RuPaul has attained the status in our culture for a two segment visit.

[@ItashaSimon]

great observation. and i agree

I LOVE their chemistry. They're so excellent, bouncing off each other and stuff. Just love watching them.

“Read a book!” I would like a T-shirt with that on it

The 'Stiftung lesen' (nonprofit foundation reading) here in germany had T-shirts with 'Schock Deine Eltern, lies ein Buch'. (Shock your parents, read a book).

As a 57 year old straight white male, I have to say, you gotta love RuPaul!

[@kilmer009]

Same here. Watch RuPaul's Drag Race with my girl. He's great because he's an intelligent, creative, emphatic person. Also hilarious. MAGA are just scared of fabulous, and fear comes from lack of knowledge, so RuPaul is right as usual. Read a book!

[@Rash23215]

The fact that u feel the need to emphasize that u r straight and white means there's still a little bit insecurity left..... hope that goes away....

[@kilmer009]

@@Rash23215 Not really?? It's showing that RuPaul is for all audiences, not just the LGBTQ crowd.

Two of some of the most highly respected and revered men in their fields of either late night television or gay and drag culture, amazing we get to see these two interact even so briefly!

RuPaul and Stephen have fabulous chemistry. I just love the banned book bus idea. How positive and joyful is that?!!

OMG. I freaking love the book bus idea!! Yes!

[@karenshurley2333]

I love me some RuPaul! He is a total sweetheart, and man can he speak some knowledge to folks! I’m so glad he’s promoting his book and also meeting up with his book van; every kid needs someone cool to look to and share their passion with, Ru is going to have a lot of young people looking to gain some knowledge!

[@paulevideo]

Both #RuPaul and #StephenColbert very smart people. Knowledge IS power. So glad they’re friends! ❤️

Ru is simply amazing and inspiring for anyone who wishes to live free and bring joy into the world. And might I say it’s wonderful watching these two great hosts and entertainers, both being at the top of their game. U can see their mutual admiration while they were talking. Great interview 👍

I enjoy Mr Colbert’s ability to give us little tasty morsels of his guests. If he ever tires of his show, I would love to watch him converse with people in their comfort zones. Much like his interview with Ms Streisand only longer. Imagine an unscripted afternoon with Mr. Paul…. A treat!

If knowledge is power and people are banning books does that mean those who are banning books want those around them stupid? If the masses are stupid, they won't know to question those in charge.
