A definitive history and celebration of the ground breaking show RuPaul's Drag Race in its first decade,from a Burbank basement set all the way to the Emmy's,and every weave in-between,as told by its stars,producers and fans.Told over the first ten years of a television mainstay,And Don't F&%k It Up tells a cultural history through the stories of the people who lived it: the creators of the RuPaul's Drag Race, the contestants,the crew,the judges,and even some key (famous) fans. It begins with RuPaul's decades-long friendship and business relationship with World of Wonder Productions,the entertainment company that helped launch him into superstardom,and later talked him into giving a drag reality show a chance. From there,it follows the growth and evolution of the show-and its queens-through a decade of gag-worthy seasons,serving up all kinds of behind-the-scenes realness. With a history as shady and funny as it is dramatic and inspiring,And Don't F&%k It Up shows how RuPaul's Drag Race is a mirror reflecting the cultural and political mores of our time. Its meteoric rise to becoming a once-in-a-generation success story is explored here as never before,in intimate,exuberant,unfettered detail.
