Dita Garbo speaks with GAY TIMES about her emotional final episode, why she doesn’t agree with the judges’ critiques and who should’ve lip-synced in her place. “Surely not, oh bollocks!” is a fitting way to begin this intro because, sigh, D-D-D-Dita Garbo’s time on Drag Race UK has come to an e-e-e-end (too much?).
For their third maxi-challenge, the queens of season six were tasked with over-acting in British rom-com trailers, before showcasing their ‘New Romantics’ runways on the main stage.
While she breathed power (as per) on the runway, Dita’s acting chops and delivery of the aforementioned line landed her in the bottom two, where she was defeated by lip-sync assassin Kiki Snatch.
Although Dita, icon and mother, admits that she had trouble in the challenge and won’t be vying for an Academy Award anytime soon, her bottom two status didn’t… align with her fantasy. “Sometimes the runway saves you, right?” says Dita.
