One of these was "The Library is Open," in which RuPaul and Visage read insulting, but hilarious, comments about each other and the guests from their cue cards. Another recurring segment was "Lip Sync for Your Lifeboat," a parody of the lip-sync battles that had become popular on social media at the time. In this game, the contestants had to choose a song and lip-sync to it, while also performing various physical challenges, such as spinning a hula hoop or blowing up a balloon. Throughout each episode, the hosts and the guests engaged in playful banter and jokes, making Gay For Play Game Show Starring RuPaul a fun and entertaining watch for fans of RuPaul and LGBT culture. Overall, Gay For Play Game Show Starring RuPaul was a light-hearted, irreverent take on the traditional game show format, featuring entertaining challenges, playful banter, and a focus on LGBT culture and humor.
