Sadly, the trans icon’s popularity with viewers sharply contrasted with her experience on the judges’ panel, landing in the bottom…

Katya confirms UNHhhh is over: ‘It was hard to do because there was no direction’

Katya has confirmed that UNHhhh has come to an end.

The series, which hilariously tackled inane topics such as “College,” “Pain” and “Straight People,” earned acclaim for its chaotic editing, the duo’s effortless chemistry, and their dark absurdist humour. Despite its success,…

Jan Sport delights in riotous new queer musical OSCAR at The Crown – review

We will heavily caveat this feature by advising we don’t think it would be fair to give OSCAR at The Crown a full review: we weren’t able to attend the show’s recent press night, so we attended a performance a few days later. Unfortunately, for our show, due to company illness the cast performed a reduced version of OSCAR at The Crown – more akin to a staged concert. We were still able to enjoy most of the songs and some of the choreography, but we know we weren’t getting…

Drag Race UK: Joel Dommett strips off for the season 7 premiere

RuPaul’s Drag Race UK is back for season seven — and Joel Dommett is baring all (quite literally) for the occasion. In a teaser for the upcoming episode, RuPaul welcomes the comedian and presenter “back by popular demand”, only for viewers to discover him on the judging panel alongside Michelle Visage and Alan Carr wearing – well, absolutely nothing. “Joel, what is going on here?” Ru asks, to which Dommett replies: “Uhh, Alan told me it was the naked episode. I’m livid! I look like an idiot.” Without missing a…
