The Truth About RuPaul And Michelle Visage's Friendship

As RuPaul told Cosmopolitan, Michelle Visage simply kept appearing everywhere and making him laugh until the drag icon couldn't ignore her anymore. Describing his lifelong BFF as "a good egg" and "super smart," the "Drag Race" host noted, "Over the years she popped up in different situations and I thought, 'My goodness, this is someone who I really need to get to know.' I like her a lot. She makes me laugh." After bumping into her so often, RuPaul realized they were meant to be, even reasoning the universe was clearly trying to tell him something. 

ET Canada notes the duo met all the way back in 1988, in the legendary New York City nightclub scene, and have been inseparable ever since — even though they didn't join forces work-wise until 1996, initially hosting a radio show together. "We can complete each other's sentences, we get exactly what each other are saying," Visage said. "Everybody has that one friend where you look at them and they know what you're thinking."
