RuPaul honoured with Hollywood Walk of Fame star by idol Jane Fonda

Jane Fonda stunned transgender icon Rupaul by presenting him with his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Friday (16Mar18).
The RuPaul’s Drag Race host told fans gathered on Hollywood Boulevard he felt like he was being “knighted” as “Queen Jane” saluted him.
“It is the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to me,” the star told talk show host Ellen DeGeneres before the ceremony. “I’ve done a lot of great things, a lot of great things have happened to me. This is the most exciting thing of all.
“About 50 years ago this week, (classic Fonda film character) Barbarella showed up at my house in the mailbox on the cover of Life magazine, and my career path was decided in that moment. I was going to become Barbarella. And here it is, she’s giving me the star.”
RuPaul becomes the first drag act to land a star on the Walk of Fame.
