Kitty girls, get ready. Netflix has finally dropped the trailer for RuPaul's new show, AJ And The Queen, and it looks *sickening*.
While we're used to seeing the 59-year-old drag queen play TV host as she steps into her role as Mama Ru on RuPaul's Drag Race, she's now taking centre stage in an acting role for the brand new series.

The heartwarming comedy show will focus on RuPaul's character Robert, who doubles as drag queen Ruby Red.
At first, his life looks pretty great: He's about to open his very own nightclub and he has big hopes for the future.
But then an angry ex boyfriend (Josh Segarra) steals all his money, leaving him with no choice but to perform a cross-country tour as Ruby Red to earn back what he lost.

To make matters all the more stressful, 10-year-old AJ (Izzy G) then decides to stow herself away in the back of Robert's RV.
And while at first Ru's character is less than happy to be dragging a child along for the ride, the unlikely double act soon go on to form a close family bond, and its not long before he's teaching the sassy little girl some important lessons about self-love and empowerment.
The series marks RuPaul's fist leading role in a scripted television project, and naturally, he's roped in some Drag Race royals to join him in the cast. Well, 22 to be exact...
