RuPaul wins the Emmy!

RuPaul Charles, who once famously said ‘I’d rather have an enema than have an Emmy,’ is now an Emmy winner.

The drag legend won the prize in the category of Outstanding Host For A Reality Or Reality-Competition Program for his work as host of RuPaul’s Drag Race.

RuPaul had hosted the show for eight seasons before getting his first Emmy nod in July.

The category also included two other openly gay nominees who are past winners: Jane Lynch (Hollywood Game Night) and Tim Gunn (Project Runway). Rounding out the category were Ryan Seacrest (American Idol), Tom Bergeron (Dancing With The Stars), Steve Harvey (Little Big Shots starring Steve Harvey) and Heidi Klum (Project Runway).
