Rue McClanahan packing them in at Chelsea’s Blu

The New York Daily News reports that the Chelsea club Blu has added Rue McClanahan to its weekly spoof of Family Feud. The club has been running the off-color production for predominantly gay audiences each Wednesday for the past two years, but this is the first time a celebrity has been attached to the project. McClanahan purrs, “I get so much love from all of these sweet people. Plus, I get to dress up in fun outfits—including as a dominatrix.” Club manager Michael Gilman says, “She’s funny as hell.... She’s a big supporter of the gay community. We are so happy to have her here.” McClanahan will be appearing on Broadway this fall in a new production of the gay-popular bitchfest The Women.
