'Drag Race' Just Got Its First-Ever Cis Woman Competitor
| 08/18/21
Meet the queens of 'Drag Race UK' season 3!
All hail the queens of Drag Race UK season 3!
The cast of the third season of the UK version of the Emmy-winning reality drag competition was just announced, and besides being a fierce batch of competitors, this season is making all sorts of herstory with the inclusion of Victoria Scone, the first cisgender woman to compete in any Drag Race franchise ever!
"My name is Victoria Scone, and I am a camp, Cardiff, cabaret, disco diva, with a lot of spunk," the 27-year-old, Cardiff-based queen said, introducing herself to fans.
"It feels right!" she said in a Q&A when asked about what it's like being the first cis woman to compete on the show. "I definitely didn't invent the art of drag for women. I am not the first and I certainly won't be the last. But I feel very capable and proud to have made it through the application process and be the first on Drag Race UK. Me being here is political but you can just have fun with it. That's why I started. I just wanted to entertain people and that's what we're going to do! Drag can just be fun!"
