Sexy Former Denverite Makes Splash, Shakes A$$, With Queens of RuPaul's Drag Race

Do you know Ross Milam? He's the former Denverite who moved to Los Angeles and became the face (and body) of Scruff - a dating/hookup app you may be familiar with. Anyway, if you blinked you may have missed Ross’ appearance in the new video from RuPaul’s Drag Race alum Alaska. He’s right there at 1:23, shakin' his stuff. 

“Alaska and I kind of hit it off at a party in Portland," says Ross. "She said she was going to be making a video and wanted me to be in it. She flew me down and I was in the video for like two seconds. It was insane."

But what's she like in real life? "She’s really fun and professional. I’ve worked with 10 or 20 of the (RuPaul's Drag Race) queens and she’s as funny as any of them. She’s the most professional, the most approachable of them all."


If that tiny taste of Ross left you hungry for more, you'll be happy to know that he'll be getting more screen time on the upcoming season of RuPaul's Drag Race.



“I am, in fact, on this season," says Ross. "Well, I make an appearance. You've just got to watch, it's going to be the scruffiest season yet. It was really cool. The talent pool this season is just crazy, it's going to be the biggest yet. And I got to meet RuPaul. She's a legend and really lives up to that designation. No queen has shit on her. No matter how badass they think they are, they ain’t got shit on Ru. There’s just something about her."

You can see Ross and the new crop of Ru’s girls when RuPaul’s Drag Race season six premieres Monday, February 24.


And here’s a little blast from the not-too-distant past; Ross and friends at the first-ever Denver Bearracuda from back in 2011:

The World Premier of 'Pure Camp' with Sharon Needles and Alaska!

Hiiieeee!! America's favorite drag-couple, Sharon Needles and Alaska are taking their relationship to the next level, the Great Outdoors!

"When Sharon and Alaska suggested we film them camping, we were in! Everyone needs more Sharon and Alaska. Period!" said Randy Barbato. "What's more campy then two queens... well... camping!!" added Sharon Needles.

Watch as the queens fiddle with their equipment to try and pitch a tent, rubbing sticks to build a fire, and beating a bushy thicket to clear a trail. All puns aside, these two vampy camp tramps butch-it-up in the wilderness, with cat walks and impromptu dance parties to boot!

"I thought getting some fresh air would give us an opportunity to conquer the great outdoors and demonstrate our strength and ruggedness by facing the rugged wild... I was wrong," chimed Alaska.

Can these two gay city-boys survive the forest? Will hungry bears (animal or man) attack and pillage base-camp?

Make sure to watch PURE CAMP every Thursday on WOW Presents!

Anti-trans cartoon ads hit Anchorage airwaves


The owner of a day care could be jailed for refusing to hire a man wearing a dress, according to a new cartoon advertisement that aims to persuade voters in Anchorage, Alaska, to oppose Proposition 5, which would add sexual orientation and gender identity to the city’s non-discrimination ordinance. The Yes on Proposition 5 -- One Anchorage Campaign said the ads were offensive, and called for their removal from the air.
