The cast of Logo's "RuPaul's Drag Race" are tearing their wigs over not being nominated for a GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) media award. After nominees for Outstanding Reality Program were announced the other week, we hear, drag queen RuPaul and cast members of "The A-List" -- who weren't nominated either -- screamed at GLAAD. "RuPaul thinks she deserves to be at the awards and she shouldn't have to share the spotlight with Heidi Klum, who was nominated for 'Project Runway,' because Heidi isn't gay," an insider said. One source said GLAAD didn't nominate "A-List" or "Drag Race" because they stereotype the gay community -- unlike Josh Kilmer-Purcell and Brent Ridge of "The Fabulous Beekman Boys," who were chosen for their positive representation. A GLAAD rep insisted, "No one from 'RuPaul's Drag Race' or 'The A-List' contacted GLAAD about the nominations."
