Fenton Bailey
Katie Razzall meets one of the pioneers of reality TV, Fenton Bailey, to discuss an extraordinary career and why reality TV has always been camp.
One of the pioneers of reality TV, Fenton Bailey hung out with Andy Warhol in the 80s, launched RuPaul's pop career in the 90s, and made what might be reality TV's most successful show: RuPaul's Drag Race. His company, World of Wonder, has also made films about Monica Lewinsky, Britney Spears and the TV evangelist Tammy Faye. Fenton and the 大象传媒's Culture and Media editor, Katie Razzall, discuss an extraordinary career, how drag provides the perfect parody of celebrity, and why reality TV has always been camp.
