RuPaul<\/a> may be the head of a hugely successful reality TV franchise and have the memory of a steel trap when it comes to pop culture, but he can\u2019t remember a name to save his life.<\/p>\n The iconic Drag Race<\/a> host is frequently guilty of spacing out and forgetting the names of even famous queens who have been on one of the franchise\u2019s many shows.<\/p>\n To be fair, RuPaul may have a hard time remembering names, but she is the host of a franchise that has grown to include 18 seasons of the main show, 10 seasons of All Stars, and an ever-growing list of international spin-offs, which is why Trixie Mattel called RuPaul an \u201cequal opportunity name forgetter.\u201d<\/p>\n In fact, RuPaul has forgotten so many names \u2014 regardless of how famous the person is \u2014 that it should be considered a badge of honor by now. Have you really been on Drag Race if RuPaul doesn\u2019t forget who you are at some point?<\/p>\n www.tiktok.com<\/a><\/p>\n RuPaul is never beating the forgetfulness allegations \ud83d\ude02 While introducing the director of his new movie, \u2018STOP! THAT! TRAIN!,\u2019 the #RuPaulsDragRace host hilariously struggled to remember longtime friend Adam Shankman\u2019s name. \u201cNow I know how all the rest of the queens on #DragRace feel,\u201d the filmmaker joked afterward.<\/p>\n At the premiere of RuPaul\u2019s film Stop!
