BEVERLY HILLS: RuPaul looks slender but when she transforms into her drag queen persona, she stands out among the other queens, towering at an impressive 6 feet 4 inches (approximately 1.93 meters or 193 cm) even before donning her heels.

RuPaul Andre Charles is a multifaceted American sensation, excelling as a singer, actor, songwriter, model, and stage performer. Born in San Diego, California in 1960, RuPaul is a beloved and widely recognized drag queen, renowned for hosting her very own reality TV show.

RuPaul once shared with Rolling Stone, “I haven’t found a heel that’s been too high for me yet. The highest I’ve found are eight inches. Now if you have pumps that are closed, that can be painful. But if you have open-toed shoes, it’s no problem.”

RuPaul is noted for his utter indifference towards the gender-specific pronouns used to address him—both "he" and "she" have been deemed acceptable.

RuPaul or Tempest DuJour: Who is the tallest drag queen?

RuPaul is generally considered one of the tallest drag queens in the industry but what makes his height even more striking is his slender physique.

RuPaul's weight is 78 kg, which makes him far lighter than many celebs who are in his height category.

Fans have referred to the drag queen RuPaul as a "giant mama," often humorously exclaiming that "she's through the damn roof" in reference to RuPaul's notably tall stature.

One user wrote, "Ru in full drag in person is incredibly intimidating. That's a giant, mama." while the other user wrote, "Honey, with hair, heels and attitude, she's through the damn roof."
