essence174 Looooooved Rupaul since supermodel and now even more for the opportunities he's given to so many queens. He is an American Icon and the most successful club kid to come out and brand himself like no other👑
Lol i know right. Shes up there fighting for her scene and having (some) people tell her its not right or they shouldnt do it. Meanwhile, 25 yrs or so later shes more successful than any of them including the Host! She was always the cream of the crop though. She was in NY since the mid 80's dressing like her superstar self and singing and dancing and doing her thing. It was only a matter of time before she made it big. In fact, there are several former club kids who people may not even realise who became rich famous. My personal favorite is Lisa Edelstein. James St. James is very popular as well, Lady Kier from Dee Lite, DJ Dimitri, Richie Rich, Randy Pop and Fenton Bailey. I could name lots more who became very well known and famous, but those are some.
but Ru really went out in drag, not the club stuff like this. I think he wanted to go with the theme or something that day because Ru never looked like that at the clubs. Ru looked fabulous, just like nowadays. LIVING LEGEND!!!
I was a teenager/young adult in the 90's and lived for the talk shows when the club kids were on. Being a shy introvert, I admired their freedom to be whoever they wanted to be. Live and let live, as long as they aren't hurting anyone.
Don't count on it. Everytime I say that, I find her doing it in an older video. But this is the first time the audience actually denied her an "Amen." Twice.
I find it funny that these “club kids” are still very relevant in the present world today and sometimes make much much more money than the sheeple in the audience, and ALSO how these shows hosts that feature the club kids to diminish their character and try to tell them their lives are wrong are no longer famous or relevant themselves 😂
i remember wen i was 4 years old watchin and older watchin richard bey no 1991 this says, i was almost 7.....so i got to see all this cool shit, and was glad that i was able to a 16 get into clubs in nyc and get to go to lime lite (then soon changed to avalon) but there the roxy exit ,tunnel and RIP copas ...I went there for the last time a few years ago like 2008 when they closed for good.. and then after that , they opened another small place that sucked . but at least i got to go one last time b4 it closed.
I’ve never heard of this show but I see so many comments dissing the host but he stood up for them several times and even questioned his audience several times questioning their insane nonsense anger and hostility towards them. So how is he so horrible? Ppl are ridiculous and just bc RuPaul makes a ton of money isn’t a form of karma for this dude. His show is promoting them it was a stepping stone for Ru
AMAZING, look at them full of life and color and you can actually differentiate between them. but when you look at the audience.... they're black and white and look exactly the same
MrSodaBelly. What do you mean, "So?" It's basic and boring. All people who fit the mainstream and meet the status quo. You like that shit? The fuck outta here...
fergilcious ya, some people don't like to stand out. Some people do. To each their own. It's only sad if they are going against what they want to be doing. If they are drab and boring because they don't have the courage to be who they really want. But that's no reason to hate on people. Who cares? Let people be. Unless they are hurting people, who cares? The shame is hating others because they are 'normal'. I used to be a wild crazy party girl in my 20's. I became a mom at 30, and now I love to just be home and spend time with my family and not call attention to myself. Do I deserve to be hated because I'm `basic`?
Lilimay Some Of them most certainly are hiding something..Go and watch Nelson’s Videos from that time period.. Most of these people were drug addicted, shallow people that lied about most everything. It was the fakest crowd around. This community is full of backstabbers and actors. They have a hard time telling the truth.
Damn some people are so closed minded. By the club kids dressing that way and partying, how the hell does that affect you?!? Or is it hurting anyone else? It's one thing to be judgmental or against becoming a club kid yourself but to actually become ANGRY because of how other folks dress is just sad and ridiculous. Saying that they are mentally sick is like saying that eccentric people are all sick, artists are all sick, comedians are all sick. For what? Being a little more out there, liking neon colors, not exhibiting rigid sexual definitions but that are ultimately keeping to themselves? I think the sick, immoral bad people are the ones that let the arbitrary things others do to make them feel angry or upset.
Did anyone else notice Shari Headley ( Lisa from Coming to America) in the background of the host she the second girl in and is wearing a multicolored shirt
RuPaul has always displayed a natural star power that was even magnetic before he became the multi-million dollar celebrity. Like RuPaul said, "You're born naked, everything else is drag". I don't think the majority of this audience, especially the host, understood the context of that sentence.
Weird looking back,as long as an individual does not have responsibilities ( children ) etc.live and let live.this is not a new idea,I,be always known this.
not yet, he was still starting out here, practically a baby, but not too long after, he was starting to make music so he definitely had the last laugh on this one
Ru always said he had bigs things in life planned. It’s not for me to judge what someone chooses to dress up as, or even identify as. It’s none of mine to know what they do behind closed doors. I’ve meet some of the best ppl in drag or trans…. But they all know who they are to themselves… they don’t press delusional speeches… they are who they are and they are comfortable in their own skin however they express themselves. It’s not for me to judge.
Those audience members are so closed minded, self-righteous and smug- cut to the future when the club kids are today's artists, entertainers and producers- today's freaks are tomorrow's leaders.
A lot of people lowered themself to hang out with Michael Alig and James St. James. Michael Musto would hang onto a flea to get ahead but RuPaul REALLY lowered himself by associating with the Club Kids and Michael Alig (who was a homicidal maniac).
Why do people keep emphasizing on “Freeze” actually did the killing. Michael fucking DISMEMBERED the body! WTF! That’s just.........🤯🤯🤯😶😶😶😶 I have NO WORDS. ILY Michael and I’m glad you’ve admitted to what you’ve done, apologized, and done your time/paid your debt to society. Yes, what happened was wrong but I was a heroin addict for 5 years and I’ve been sober for 5 (almost 6) years now and I could NEVER even imagine on my most FUCKED UP of days, killing someone. Let alone dismembering someone’s body. God bless.
Almost every single one is still makong money off this club kid era. Ru paul the most famous. Emmys and.millions. tv.shows. ernie and michael with pee eww. TH-cam show. Michael musto still doing the same thing... James st james still making money off this.
Thoughtful people: “Here is art! I love it! Want some?” The world: “I haaaaaatee you! Be like me! This story changes only slightly STILL. Thank god for club kids.
The only reason Michael posted this video on this channel is to try and ride the coattail of RuPaul. It's a pathetic attempt to regain some sort of popularity for what happened years ago. It was cool the first time, it's just lame now... Let it go Michael and move on to something real!
Actually, the reason we posted this video is because we had a videotape of it that we digitized and it wasn't already on TH-cam as far as we could tell. So, we decided to share it with our subscribers who we thought might like to see it. We can barely ride the subway, much less RuPaul's coattails!
RuPaul sitting right next to Amanda Lepore is all the legendary you ever need in life.
mpstudies and James just chairs away, and there a killer and more colors
At least ru paul admits hes a man and amanda just lies says shes female. Terrible. Just tell the truth.
Totally
@@dannydavideos8106 lol your trying to insult her while still calling her she you all are so contradictory
So Rupaul what will you be doing at 40, 50, etc? RuPaul: Just slaying, making millions and winning emmys!!!!!!
essence174 Looooooved Rupaul since supermodel and now even more for the opportunities he's given to so many queens. He is an American Icon and the most successful club kid to come out and brand himself like no other👑
Amanda has done really well for herself and still looks sensational
Lol i know right. Shes up there fighting for her scene and having (some) people tell her its not right or they shouldnt do it.

He's 60 now!
Ru was always so strong and sure of what his goals in life are. Such an inspiration!
RuPaul always stood out in the early years...Can I get an AMEN?!
yeah
weatherlicious AMEN!!!
Right. He’s so pretty too. For real
but Ru really went out in drag, not the club stuff like this. I think he wanted to go with the theme or something that day because Ru never looked like that at the clubs. Ru looked fabulous, just like nowadays. LIVING LEGEND!!!
And now RuPaul is richer than anyone in that close-minded, judgmental audience. Karma.
I was a teenager/young adult in the 90's and lived for the talk shows when the club kids were on. Being a shy introvert, I admired their freedom to be whoever they wanted to be. Live and let live, as long as they aren't hurting anyone.
Laura G I agree, I wish I had half the confidence they had.
Lol not hurting, just killing... TF
This was a hostile audience. And there’s Ru, being a joyful warrior.
why is the audience so angry? these people don't affect them in any way.
Rupaul had the last laugh $$$$$$
5:36 "Can I get an amen about that?" - RuPaul -...here is where all started...
Don't count on it. Everytime I say that, I find her doing it in an older video. But this is the first time the audience actually denied her an "Amen." Twice.
We could be killers!!!! LOL!
lol took the words outta my mouth
loved the 90s talk shows, used to watch Richard Bey all the time.
Ru always wins people over with grace, beauty and a kind heart! Whereas Michael Alig loses people by being bratty, hostile and flippant. Peace 💜
awkward moment when they said, some people grow up to be killers, and we grew up to be colorful people... well not exactly
Clous von actually Freeze did the killing part.
Invincible Beauty but Michael dismembered Angel’s body. IMO that’s just as gruesome if not WORSE.
Susie Synth no freeze knocked him out and Michael asphyxiated him.
Regardless the weird thing is that this is Micheals own channel and he chose to post it even after hearing it...
I find it funny that these “club kids” are still very relevant in the present world today and sometimes make much much more money than the sheeple in the audience, and ALSO how these shows hosts that feature the club kids to diminish their character and try to tell them their lives are wrong are no longer famous or relevant themselves 😂
Richard Bey, wow I used to watch him. RuPaul could buy this audience today.
I LOVE JAMES
Emmy ? Right. He cracks me up
i remember wen i was 4 years old watchin and older watchin richard bey no 1991 this says, i was almost 7.....so i got to see all this cool shit, and was glad that i was able to a 16 get into clubs in nyc and get to go to lime lite (then soon changed to avalon) but there the roxy exit ,tunnel and RIP copas ...I went there for the last time a few years ago like 2008 when they closed for good.. and then after that , they opened another small place that sucked . but at least i got to go one last time b4 it closed.
NNJCUB im so upset i was born in 1999😭😭😭😭😭 i wish i could've grew up in this era😭😭😭😭

Hating people because they AREN`T loud and colorful is the same as hating someone FOR being thay way.
The audience really thinks they're hiding something? LOL What a laugh...

Drugs are very bad... Nasty and dirty lifestyle...
We could be killers.
And then Michael Alig took it seriously and became one. :-O
Wow This Is Iconic. They should do a Update Now lmao
Rupaul was the star of the show even back then
I always loved rupaul 💕💕💕
Wow this is gold!
rupaul saying can i get an amen !!! lol everyone says it with her now
Nelson would have definitely been on this stage......
i wonder how michael n freeze rocked the prison garb
shannon campbell With thier pants sagging I'd think.
It's amazing how far we have come in as far as accepting people...Go RuPaul, work!
Larry Tee is so cool.
Did anyone else notice Shari Headley ( Lisa from Coming to America) in the background of the host she the second girl in and is wearing a multicolored shirt
the lady from coming to America is in the audience
Raquel i know right! and she looks like she stepped off the set.
Wow that is one hostile audience. How can people live being that angry and miserable? I like how the caller avoids places. That’s hilarious.
RuPaul has always displayed a natural star power that was even magnetic before he became the multi-million dollar celebrity. Like RuPaul said, "You're born naked, everything else is drag". I don't think the majority of this audience, especially the host, understood the context of that sentence.
OMG JAMES
Michael Musto hasn’t changed, he’s just older now
Richard bey! Wow I feel old. I remember watching his show, then Jerry became popular.
The woman at the end sums it up. God bless
Michael: "and then ya die" *with a crooked smile*
Its so funny to me how shocking this was to some people 30 years ago.
Where is Lahoma Van Zandt???
People grow up to be killers?? *crickets* ..ohh poor Michael Alig! Smh... lol
After seeing a Leigh Boughery documentary i get where Michael Alig got the polka dot face thing from
What is the Leigh boughery documentary? ✨
Shari Headley,the costar in the Coming to America movie with Eddie Murphy @0:16.
Weird looking back,as long as an individual does not have responsibilities ( children ) etc.live and let live.this is not a new idea,I,be always known this.
Interesting seeing Ru, who's pushing 60, being asked all this back then.😂
and by that time did Ru already have her first single super model that year?
+Kiki Carmita no
+The Pee-ew o ok
This was around a year or so before "Supermodel" dropped.
Supermodel dropped the year I was a senior in high school, 1992. I had it on cassette. 💖
not yet, he was still starting out here, practically a baby, but not too long after, he was starting to make music so he definitely had the last laugh on this one
Damn Michael is awfully quiet in this, not a problem just used to him being the most talky lol.
hey did anyone peep the female lead from coming to America sitting in the crowd? omg #awesome
the lady at the end though!!! 👏
99% of these club kids ended up losers, dead, or in prison. What, 3 of them actually made a real life from being extreme?
The fact that any of them did is Awesome!
@@mrs.Italy.D not really it is the agenda
What ever happened to Amanda?
She is so fabulous! Look her up now....she has been associated with many people in Hollywood lol Kanye West and her had something
where's Sushi?
KIds Club was the one of the first platform for Rupaul´s career!!
We could be killers... Man what a blow to michael.. Lol
Haters = a bunch of nobodies with no joy in their lives.
Ru (and his Amens) and James friends since almost 30 years ago. I don't know how people can be ok with a murderer there now
Why is the host trashy? He is intelligent, witty, charming, everything that most hosts are not.
RUPAULLLLLL!!!!
Seems like Musto just kind of leached off the current trend. Like the one old guy attempting to fit in at a party..
Kinda was 😂
RuPaul got the last laugh.
I love rupaul

Shari Headley @0:19
“We could be killers”. Awkward.
"We could be killers" --- Michael Alig- CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
This audience was mean.
No one cares what the neighbors think 💭
You should prob be afraid like Angel had to be when michael murdered him.?.
RuPaul is the most successful of them all
Those audience members are so closed minded, self-righteous and smug- cut to the future when the club kids are today's artists, entertainers and producers- today's freaks are tomorrow's leaders.

wait, I'm confused why are you posting this if you think its trashy? then your probably calling yourself trashy.
Oh yeah. We're trashy.

It's not monotized, I think they did it just to share content
Rick Taylor You are a lowlife.
Bey was THE biggest cokehead. If I wtf he's kidding.
3:20 can i get an amen in here?
