RuPaul is starting a new project: a daytime talk show.

The host of RuPaul’s Drag Race is reportedly filming a pilot for Telepictures, the subsidiary of Warner Bros. Television that’s also behind The Ellen Degeneres Show.

The show will involve interviewing celebrities, discussing beauty tips, and playing games. It will be filmed in front of a live audience and have a “positive” point of view.

And Michelle Visage is going to have a role in the show, Variety reports.

This isn’t the first talk show Ru will be hosting. In the 90’s, The RuPaul Show aired 100 episodes on VH1 and involved celebrity interviews, including one with Diana Ross, RuPaul’s favorite diva.

No word yet on whether he will appear in drag on the talk show.
