ALEC WELCOMES RUPAUL AND THE PRIME MINISTER OF NORWAY, ERNA SOLBERG, FOR A CONVERSATION ON ABC'S 'THE ALEC BALDWIN SHOW,' SATURDAY, DEC. 22

"RuPaul, Prime Minister Erna Solberg" - Entertainer RuPaul and the prime minister of Norway, Erna Solberg, join Alec Baldwin for candid and engaging conversations on "The Alec Baldwin Show," SATURDAY, DEC. 22 (10:00-11:00 p.m. EST), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand.

First, multitalented performer RuPaul, who revels in life's "pleasure and fun and joy," and in using all of the colors in the crayon box to push back against the establishment, sits down with Alec. He talks about pushing through his fears and going for it, which transformed him from the dance floors of New York City clubs to a world famous glamazon. Celebrating 10 years of his uber-popular, "RuPaul's Drag Race," he talks about how being gay was never really a driving force in his decision-making and why he is not defined by representing change. He shares his complex relationship with his father and his struggles with addiction to his new book "GuRu" and upcoming series, "AJ and the Queen."

From a political activist in her teens to becoming the second female prime minister in the history of Norway, Erna Solberg joins Alec to talk about her country's leadership role in providing developmental aid and environmental protection around the world. She believes that being a part of the decision-making power to make society better is the most interesting thing one can do and also shares what she feels is the hardest part of being prime minister. She talks about the global environmental movement in her country, its strict immigration policy and generous social system, the differences between Norway and the United States, her passion for education and mental health among the youth, as well as her husband's improved culinary skills.
