Drag Race UK winner Ginger Johnson talks ‘bizarre, ridiculous and cartoony’ new series

Ginger Johnson says her new BBC series is a perfect encapsulation of what resides in her “great big head”. Following her win on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK last year, the Northern comedian has unleashed a camp six-part series, Ginger’s House, in which she invites familiar faces over to kiki and – as an “incredibly lazy” person – assist her with household chores. Featuring appearances from queens such as Tia Kofi, Kate Butch, Cara Melle, Danny Beard and Miss Naomi Carter, Ginger describes the series as “half-sitcom, half-chat show” due to its hybrid scripted…

Drag Race’s Sasha Colby says drag daughter Chappell Roan ‘could be the next Gaga or Madonna’

Sasha Colby is celebrating the rise of her drag daughter, Chappell Roan. The legendary entertainer, who memorably conquered the 15th season of RuPaul’s Drag Race, recently made the Midwest Princess a member of her drag family. The initiation came to be following numerous instances of Roan expressing her love and adoration for Colby and offering her own spin on her classic quote, “I’m your favourite drag queen’s favourite drag queen” (swapping out “queen” for “artist”). She paid homage to Colby at Coachella, and later explained her reverence for the queen during…

‘The queerness in Kaos was groundbreaking – its cancellation is a huge loss for LGBTQIA+ representation’

“Netflix’s decision to end Kaos after a single season does more than cancel a promising show; it halts the progression toward an inclusive media landscape that reflects the true diversity of human identities,” writes Scout Dragon. WORDS BY SCOUT DRAGON Queer representation in the media is more important than ever. Yet, while visibility has improved, the way LGBTQIA+ characters are portrayed often falls into a troubling pattern: it feels forced. Too often, queerness is treated as a plot point rather than a natural part of a character’s identity, making representation…
