Minority House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be a guest judge on an upcoming episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars.”

Pelosi has already completed taping for the show, which will air on VH1 sometime after the Jan. 25 premiere of the new season, according to The Washington Post.

The Democrat politician, whose district includes San Francisco, tweeted she had a “fabulous” time doing the show.

The show is a reality competition series in which a series of drag queens compete in different challenges culminating in the top two lip-syncing, with the winner getting to send one of the other contestants home.

Other celebrity guest judges this season include actors Vanessa Hudgens of “High School Musical” fame, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” star Tituss Burgess, and Broadway’s Kristin Chenoweth, the Post reported. 

According to The Washington Post, Pelosi said she agreed to appear on the show to support the LGBT community, especially in light of attacks on it by President Donald Trump.

The House minority leader would not reveal any details about her time on the show, but show producer Randy Barbato said he invited Pelosi to appear and that she was “absolutely delightful” on the show, CNN reported

Twitter wasn't too happy about Pelosi's guest appearance.
