Executive producer David Steven Simon opened up in a new book excerpt for “Freaks, Gleeks, and Dawson’s Creek: How Seven Teen Shows Transformed Television” by Thea Glassman (via Entertainment Weekly), and shared that since Will got to approve every story for the show, the suggestion of RuPaul was rejected.
David added that Will actually “didn’t often reject ideas”, but “I remember him saying that would be a really bad idea, and I said, ‘No, listen, hear my story —.’”
He added that while he tried to convince Will that it would be a great appearance, Will still “refused” and “kept repeating that it was a bad idea.”
“The reason he would say no is because of his image. Period. The End,” David added.
