Liz Taylor is famous. So is Pepper LaBeija. In a sense, so am I. But a very much different quantity. No magazine's gonna run up to cover me if I go to a premiere. But it's still a fame. It's a small fame. But you absorb it, you take it. And you like it. You like the adulation, the applause. The people cheering you on, the winning. It's like a physical high, you know? It's a good high."

At the end of the 21st Century, Dorian Corey said those words in the film "Paris is Burning".

This past Monday, Monday, May 6, 2019, stars of RuPaul's Drag Race got to walk the pink carpet and attend the Met Gala in New York City while magazines and media outlets ran up to cover them.

Such a momentous and historic occasion.

Here's some of that coverage:
