RuPaul dedicated the nomination in July "to outsiders everywhere" and to "brave souls who, against all odd, stick to their dreams and make the world a more colorful place."

The Drag Race host beat out American Idol's Ryan Seacrest, Hollywood Game Night's Jane Lynch, and Project Runway's Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn, among others.
