AJ & The Queen Cast, Character, & Cameo Guide
Netflix Original series AJ and the Queen stars RuPaul Charles as Robert aka Ruby Red, a down-on-her-luck drag queen embarking on a cross-country tour. There’s just one problem: she has a young stow-away to contend with. Izzy G plays AJ, a street-wise 10-year-old with a bad attitude. Together, the unlikely duo travel to various clubs across America, meeting a number of colorful characters along the way.
Created by RuPaul Charles, of RuPaul’s Drag Race fame, and Michael Patrick King, best known for his work on Sex and the City, AJ and the Queen is a Netflix Original series that fuses sentimental drama with witty banter and camp humor. Season 1, released in January 2020, follows Ruby and AJ as they travel in an RV to Ruby’s drag queen gigs — which are filled with plenty of RuPaul’s Drag Race queens. As the odd couple spends time together, they gradually learn to appreciate, and even admire, each other.
AJ and Robert face a number of challenges on their journey: AJ’s on the run from the foster-care system, which she was placed in because of her mother’s struggles with drug addiction, and Robert is coping with a devastating breakup and the loss of his lifesavings. Along the way, the pair are helped by friends new and old, but they also encounter some less-than-friendly — and downright dangerous — characters.
RuPaul Charles as Robert/Ruby Red – An older drag queen from New York City who has spent her career saving-up to open her very own club. Having finally saved up the $100,000 she needs to launch her business, the would-be entrepreneur is devastated to learn she has been grifted by a con artist. Arguably, RuPaul is the most well-known and powerful drag queen in the entertainment industry today. She first rose to fame with her hit single „Supermodel (You Better Work),“ but today is best-known for her popular TV series RuPaul’s Drag Race.
Izzy G as AJ – The tough-talking child who lives in the apartment above Robert. AJ, desperate for money because her mother isn’t around, first tries to rob Robert, then stows away in Robert’s RV, wanting a ride to Texas. AJ is extremely antagonist with Robert and is frequently unruly and obnoxious; however, over time, AJ softens and learns to trust her road-trip companion. „Izzy G“ has appeared in a handful of other projects, billed as Isabella Gaspersz; the Netflix Original series may prove to be the child actor’s breakout role.
Michael-Leon Wooley as Louis/Cocoa Butter – Robert’s roommate and friend. Louis is a fellow drag queen who is a blind diabetic. Robert isn’t always very responsible — especially in regards to managing his diabetes — but he is a talented performer, an accomplished dressmaker, and a loving friend. Wooley is best known for his voice work, such as his role in Disney’s The Princess and the Frog.
Josh Segarra as Hector/Damian Sanchez – Hector is Robert’s too-good-to-be-true boyfriend and business partner. After Robert gives „Hector“ a credit card and access to his life savings, the latter disappears, taking all of the drag queen’s money with him. Hector doesn’t stay gone for long, however, and he acts as one of the series‘ main antagonists. Segarra has had a number of recurring roles in television, including a stint in Arrow as Adrian Chase.
Tia Carrere as Lady Danger – A former pageant queen herself and a fellow con artist working with Hector. Lady Danger wears an eye patch and has an infamous reputation among the drag queen community: she is a cheap source of cosmetic fillers, but has been known to occasionally slip in substances not suitable for use as a dermal injection. She is the series other primary antagonist. Carrere should be recognizable to viewers: in addition to playing Wayne’s love interest Cassandra in Wayne’s World, Carrere also starred in the beloved TV Series Relic Hunter.
