"Who wouldn't want to be a drag queen? Isn't it all about overdressing and flouncing around being bitchy with gay men and belting out pop tunes and hits from the shows? Is that so different from a decent girls' night out? Feather boas, fishnets, leopard-print and false eyelashes have all been staples of my party look since my teens, so why not simply take it up a notch, wear them all at once, throw in some falsies and do drag?"
| My inner Drag Queen started with Fifi Trixibelle, an alter-ego I developed while working at The Comedy Box in Bristol. I was the hostess of a gameshow called Win Some Beer with compere Kev F, where the grand prize was - some beer. I wore a blonde bouffant wig, false eyelashes, minis, kinky boots and ditzed my way around the stage, removing the wig at the end to reveal a bleached blonde skin head. From Drag Girl to Tank Girl in one smooth move. We also used to do this countdown bit to the theme of the cheesy TV show Countdown and for years people kept coming up to me and doing it in Bristol clubs! | ![]() |
Here's a clip of Kev F's show Rude Heath
