Full house at opening of Tao nightclub

Looking good, feeling gorgeous

It was a full house at Ottawa’s newest upscale nightclub, Tao, Jun 26. RuPaul (above) ripped through some of her club favourites. The event was to promote Tao’s gay night, Cliché Thursdays. $1,400 of proceeds from the night were donated to Capital Pride. Although Tao, at Rideau and Dalhousie, is a member’s only club on Friday and Saturday, Thursdays is open to the general public — and hot homos are the main clientele.
