Was there anything that didn’t air that you wish fans could’ve seen? She hasn’t a clue what a gif is, but she is one. And my mum is now an official gif! She is a diamond. Well at least some of your shady comments became memes such as, “Who put 50p in Cheryl?” I think a couple of queens, mainly Divina sat there and said they were better than anyone else yet I’m the villain? But hey ho!

When you look at the US version, our series was tame as hell. It was so tame and I was the villain, yet I was never the one that sat there and said I’m better than anyone else. They hailed you as a villain but everyone in the UK has shady, deadpan humour? I think people can cast you as a villain because you’re confident in what you do, but surely if you’re going into a competition, confidence is key? I went into that werkroom to get a crown, do the best that I can do and show the country that I deserved it. I know Divina has called me out for playing mind games or something like that, but I wasn’t playing mind games with anyone. I said everything that I said on that camera. If you’re going to come out of Drag Race and blame the edit, that’s your decision. How does it feel being labelled the ‘villain’ of Drag Race UK? It got back to being a competition and a talent show, rather than a reality show. There were some good looks on that season!Īlso, it didn’t feel forced. The humour, the comedy and looks as well, which I don’t think a lot of people were expecting. It’s gotten down to the nitty gritty of raw, British drag. Oh, it’s proved everyone wrong! It’s just amazing. Well, it’s proven to be one of the best seasons ever… fact. Come to watch one of our shows and I bet you will have just as good a night, if not better than if you go and watch the American queens.’ Drag queens aren’t as polished over here.’ I’m here to say, ‘Listen. When the UK Drag Race was announced, there was a lot of talk, ‘It’s not going to be as good as the US one. I just want to show the rest of the world that the UK has just as good a drag as the US. Yeah I know! Let’s just put it all in one year. We’re both deserving winners, but what happened happened…Īnd you’re getting married next month! You must be loving 2019? Yeah, definitely! It could’ve gone either way. In my opinion, it was the closest top two since Manila Luzon and Raja in season 3. I was squeezing Divina’s hand and we both looked at each other and burst into tears. I couldn’t have called it when we were watching it until Ru said my name. Yeah, we always film two crownings and I genuinely couldn’t have called it. The past 12 years of my drag career have come to this and it’s just the cherry on top of the cake.ĭid you know you were going to win? Or did you and Divina film separate crownings? Thank you very much! Absolutely amazing, just a dream come true. In celebration of her win, we spoke with The Vivienne about her time on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, how she feels with being labelled the show’s “villain”, and why the lack of prizes shouldn’t deter queens auditioning for season 2.Ĭondragulations The Vivienne! How does it feel to be the first winner of Drag Race UK? However, don’t be surprised to see The Vivienne battling an Indominus Rex alongside Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard in Jurassic World 3… (It’ll make sense later.)

The second will be her own adventure, details of which are yet to be announced. The first, a collaboration with Baga, will see the stars reprise their iconic Snatch Game characters as Trump and Thatcher for a “spoof of Good Morning Britain”. Now, The Vivienne is set to conquer Hollywood with two incredible projects. “I was squeezing Divina’s hand and we both looked at each other and burst into tears. “I couldn’t have called it when we were watching it until Ru said my name,” The Vivienne tells us shortly after her historic win. The Liverpudlian beat out her fellow competitors Divina De Campo and Baga Chipz after writing their own lyrics and recording a verse for a performance of RuPaul’s classic dance-pop anthem, Rock It (To The Moon) – now available on iTunes. The winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK spills all the T in our exclusive cover interview.Īfter eight weeks of serving jaw-dropping lewks and Academy Award-winner realness with her impressions of Kim Woodburn and Donald Trump, The Vivienne deservedly won the coveted title of the UK’s First Drag Race Superstar last week.
