‘I’m obsessed with the drama’: DeDeLicious addresses Drag Race UK controversies
The DeDe Smasher reflects on her Drag Race UK experience, including her status as a lip-sync assassin and “bulls***t” conflict with Vicki Vivacious.

In their semi-final challenge, the top four queens flexed their stand-up chops in a Gladiators-inspired roast in front of the eliminated queens (bar Cara Melle, who didn’t appear due to sickness).
