Rihanna 777 Tour - Day 4, Oh F*ck!
I overslept! At 9am I got a call from the front desk. I was supposed to be on the bus at 8:30am. YIKES! Last night was fun though, after having a few drinks (and shots) with the good folks at MTV News and VH1, I somehow pulled a sneaky exit, and don't clearly remember getting home. The only clues I have about the blurry hours are a receipt for a cab and two photos of ladies with #CardboardRuPaul outside of the venue on the way home. The sad thing is, I missed Rihanna during those lost hours. She showed up at the bar at 4:30am!

Besides that, Stockholm was just as beautiful as their people. Everyone looked like they just stepped out of an H&M catalog. I'm not sure if it was because it was a Friday, but Stockholm seemed to be the most enthusiastic audience. No time to enjoy the afterglow though because we were back on the plane and now…
We've just arrived in (wait for it) Gay Paris!
At the baggage claim, I met Mel Ottenberg, Rihanna's stylist and Adam Selman, her costume designer. I just about died when he told me that he used to be the designer for RuPaul's Drag Race seasons 1 - 3! He was telling me how much he loved working with Ru and now he adores Rihanna!

And now, #CardboardRuPaul is ready for a pic with the Eiffel Tower.
