The cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Season 1!
Divina De Campo “When you come to a Divina show, you know, there’ll be some comedy, a bit of opera, there’ll be some pop tunes, there’ll be some show tunes, there’ll be some...blue tunes in there!”
Baga Chipz “Baga Chipz is the kind of drag queen that gets her tits out for the lads, flashes her tuppence, gives someone a Jimmy Krankie on the bus for a pack of fags - d’you know what I mean?”
Crystal “I’m called Crystal because we’re both glamorous and sparkly...but ultimately worthless. [...] I’m not a cookie cutter drag queen. I’m bringing much more of an East London fashion, creative element to it.”
The Vivienne “My style of drag, I always say, is like a Scouse wife who’s come into money, she moved to LA, she blew it all and then she’s had to move back to Bootle.”
Cheryl Hole “My style of drag is that Essex glamour with a touch of showgirl. My drag name comes from a pun of the Geordie princess, Miss Cheryl Cole.”
Blu Hydrangea “My drag name comes from the blue hydrangea bush that is in my garden. My nanny told me that you have to plant it with a rusty nail so that it turns into a beautiful blue hydrangea. I love that story of like, something coming from a rusty, dirty nail into something beautiful, which is kinda like me.”
Scaredy Kat “I came up with my drag name because, I’m just a bit of a pussy, really. My persona and style in drag is cute, pink and scared, like a nervous flamingo.”
Vinegar Strokes “I think viewers are gonna describe me as maybe, the heart of the competition? [...] I am a straight up comedy queen. I tell jokes, I tell stories, I sing songs, kind of in my own style, like Lily Allen meets Kat Slater.”
Gothy Kendoll “When I first did drag, I was actually halfway through a project on drag. I was really interested in the art, the metamorphosis, all that kind of stuff. I actually wrote a dissertation on it.”
Sum Ting Wong “Trying to find my own drag name, I go on Facebook and scroll up, and within 30 seconds I see this little story of this joke flight that went missing that got sent to American TV. The pilot’s name was Sum Ting Wong and I was like, you know what? That’s mine now. Do you know what I call that? Reclamation!”
