What, we often wonder, happens to the winners of reality shows after the cameras stop rolling? If you're Adam Lambert, it's an easy answer: mega-fame! But if you're BeBe Zahara Benet, winner of RuPaul's Drag Race? Benet might not be tailed by the paparazzi just yet, but she's taking her crown and running with it to launch the "I'm The Shit" tour on New Year's Eve. But first? An eponymous music video. It debuts next week, so in the meantime, there's this "making of" clip. And you know there's gonna be some runway divadom.

Looks like she's workin' it, and bless her heart, but I thought it was the bald guy that won that thing. I only did drive-bys. The only fun part was seeing Ru filmed through linoleum.
I've seen some of them perform and I have to say, in real life Shannel, or Channel just knocks it out of the park performancewise.
As for what #1 Romeo said. I KNOW! When RuPaul would be on Camera all I saw ere two eyes with lots of liner, all the rest had been blurred away by that Joan Collins lens they were filming her through!
OMG – Love it!
BeBe looks wonderful in glamorous dresses, but when it comes to body suits and short skirts, she doesn't cut it. The only time I thought she looked terrible was in the girl band challenge on "Drag Race". And I have to say this, and I do it out of love, but Miss BeBe needs a diet.
"What, we often wonder, happens to the winners of reality shows after the cameras stop rolling? If you're Adam Lambert, it's an easy answer: mega-fame!"
uhhh Adam is not a "winner". Yes, he Fagalicious but he is a runner-up. Cutie Pie Kris Allen was the winner.
Now we shall see if BeBe is the next Ru. Those are some big pumps to fill. Ru is my Heroine. I will not be easily won over BeBe. You better work it!
t.
She's a "Reverse RACIST!!!" RuPaul accepts everyone!
LMAO Kris Allen a "winner." Have you seen his charts, Tom D Frog? Puhleeeze. American Idol was just a footnote in Adam's mega-stardom.
