The RuPaul’s Drag Race UK series 3 tour strutted into Newcastle on Wednesday style to prove that drag talent never goes out of style, whatever the season.
On the same day that the cast for the next run of the massively successful home grown spin -off of the worldwide phenomenon was revealed, the queens from last time round showed they’re not ready to relinquish the spotlight quite yet with a show that had it all - from high fashion to high camp.
It was great to see each of the season 3 contestants given a opportunity to show what they can do and all of them grabbed the chance with gusto. It can often be hard for a queen, given the structure of Drag Race, with its tried and tested format and themed challenges, to really show what they’re all about, but the numbers in the tour were a great springboard for each and every one’s personality and undeniable talent.
