On RuPaul's Drag Race, all queen personas are referred to with feminine pronouns, which is the norm. Pronouns generally always match gender presentation unless specified otherwise. RuPaul's name, in contrast, applies to RuPaul both when she is in drag and when he is dressed in men's clothing; therefore, "RuPaul" isn't used strictly for a feminine persona. If one watches the show, or reads most news articles (non-open source) about the queens on the show, one will find that feminine pronouns are used when referring to feminine drag personas. Masculine pronouns are appropriate for the performers when out of drag, of course. It's really important that we get this right.
