Victoria Scone calls on Drag Race franchise to cast drag kings: “I would love to see it”
Canada vs the World star Victoria Scone has called on the Drag Race bosses to cast drag kings in future seasons. Since making her debut on the third season of Drag Race UK, the beloved talent has consistently been at the forefront of some of the franchise’s most herstoric moments.
From becoming the first cis female competitor to showcasing the first-ever drag king look on the runway, Victoria is no stranger to breaking boundaries.
While the Drag Race franchise has slowly started to feature a more diverse set of queens, the Cardiff-based talent recently told Digital Spy that there’s still room for more inclusivity, specifically regarding drag kings. “Diversity is just always going to be a plus in every sense.
It brings variety to performance as well as the fact that everyone deserves a seat at the table, regardless of what gender you happen to be assigned at birth,” she explained to the news outlet. “I did a drag king look on Canada Vs the World, so obviously that’s something I’m very passionate about – getting drag kings on Drag Race.” World Of Wonder Victoria went on to say that having drag king talent would bring in more viewers and highlight a “big chunk” of the LGBTQ+ community. “There’s absolutely, in my opinion, no reason why they couldn’t be.
