RuPaul becomes our guru sharing the life philosophies Mama Ru lives by.   Sage advice from a self-proclaimed shape-shifter.   RuPaul has reinvented herself many, many times over the years and doesn’t plan on stopping till she drops.     She shares her daily rituals that ease her into each day always giving thanks and showing gratitude for the blessings bestowed on her life.   She delivers witticisms to live by, “You’re born naked and the rest is drag.”   She discusses how she loves to dress well whether as a woman or a man, and shares some fashion and make-up tips along with humorous comments, “extra points for applying false eyelashes on the bottom lashes!”   Telling how she pads her derriere ,“there’s nothing better that a big fat booty!”   RuPaul talks about her influences for her many personnas, first it was Diana Ross, then Cher, Dolly Parton, I would have thought Tina Turner, too, but she didn’t mentiooooooooooooooooooooooooooonetc.   Still fabulous whoever inspired her look – she makes it RuPaul.   Sometimes speaking from a Shamanic place RuPaul guides the reader into meditative states, with a voice so soft she ought to offer classes, she could lull the readers and fans into a spa like place as she speaks of talking to your soul – who we are mentally, physically and spiritually, the essence, the power that created the universe that most people aren’t willing to hear about nor accept but Is so real and tangible in her life.   She reaches out to comfort the sensitive soul with her teachings and spiritual awareness she wears like a fine perfume.   Drag allows her the space to shoot for the stars and what an excellent job she does.  Image maker, fashionista now GuRu, RuPaul does it all.   I would recommend this book, to all the souls out there searching for a fierce Warrior Princess  to lead the charge.   Always entertaining.   Always honest to a tee.  Always true to herself, that is RuPaul.
