BuzzJack Music Forum _ RuPaul's Drag Race _ RuPaul's Drag Race UK 🇬🇧 SPOILERS & TEA THREAD
Posted by: Davidson 24th March 2019, 10:38 PM
So here are some updated rumours.
The previous rumour that all the queens are London based doesn't seem to be true. Michelle said today in a podcast that queens from around the country, including Blackpool and Manchester would be represented. Also many of the queens who have already 'gone missing' seem to suggest that it will be UK wide.
So this is a list of some of the rumoured queens so far:
Blu Hydrangea (Belfast queen - works at make-up counter but has taken 'a few months off')
Baga Chipz (London queen - regular judge on 'Porn Idol' at Heaven who is being replaced by Lauren Harries for 3 weeks)
The Vivienne (Drag Race UK Ambassador - gone off social media and cancelled gigs)
Ginny Lemon (Birmingham queen who appeared on X Factor - cancelled large charity gig)
Reba Martel (Glasgow queen - apparently someone else taken over social media, claiming they are refunding previously bought gig tickets)
Bruise (Glasgow queen - has been offline for 3 days and at the same time removed her location from her snapchat)
Lydia Scabbies (Brighton queen - apparently cancelled all gigs for next month)
Amanda Bang (Kent queen - not been active on social media)
Divina Da Campo (Stoke-on-Trent queen who appeared on The Voice - missing from social media & Crystal Lubrikunt apparently let it slip she was on)
Cara Melle (London queen - not been active on social media)
Vicki Vivacious (London queen - not really sure where the T comes from here but some sources claiming she has been cast)
Obviously some of those will not end up on. They have already confirmed that there will only be 10 queens, and if Michelle is confirming Blackpool and Manchester representation then there is also none of that on the list. I would also imagine they would cast more than Cara Melle as the only ethnic diverse queen.
However, I would imagine that many of the names above will defo be on the cast. I am sure more will become clear from filming starting tomorrow!

Can we not put this in the tea thread? I use mobile and it’s annoying going through loads of blanked out text?
Posted by: Theonix 24th March 2019, 11:00 PM
Press quote post?
Posted by: 365 24th March 2019, 11:04 PM
I know that. But I’m just saying that’s what the spoilers thread was made for
Posted by: Theonix 24th March 2019, 11:06 PM
No I agree with you! I just think quote post is a viable alternative until the posts are moved - I assume Liam reads spoilers and is therefore happy to move them?
Posted by: RobBob 25th March 2019, 01:15 AM
Well I’ll certainly be able to let you know if that Ginny Lemon rumour is true cos she has a weekly Tuesday gig here.
EDIT: she posted on her Facebook like 7 hours ago and afaik filming has already begun.

First boot / someone else covering the account?

I wasn't sure about putting this in the tea thread if people just wanted to know about this but not spoil S11 
Posted by: 365 25th March 2019, 09:32 AM
Maybe we’ll need a separate DRUK tea thread.
Posted by: 365 25th March 2019, 09:33 AM
Just in case people know stuff / want to know about DRUK but don’t want spoiling for the other seasons.
Posted by: 365 25th March 2019, 09:35 AM
The London queens mentioned I’ve seen/ know of some of them. And...none of them are that great. This coupled with the regional queens that’ll be cast... the season is probably going to be a delicious mess. They won’t be finding any Violet or Valentina’s in the UK I don’t think..?
Posted by: Cucumberella 25th March 2019, 10:16 AM
The rumors for the Glasgow choices are a bit..... ech. Was really hoping to see Laurence Chaney make it. Bruise seems okay but a bit style over substance.
Posted by: Liаm 25th March 2019, 01:13 PM
I'll move the posts over when I'm on my computers later!
Posted by: Liаm 25th March 2019, 01:15 PM
Baga Chipz is one I know and really like style wise, recognise a couple of other names too but unsure what to think of how they may be on the show. It's going to be very different to the usual Drag Race tbf so I'll keep an open mind and see how it goes but with the queens I know, the vibe is definitely going to seem odd
You do soon get used to same format, different vibe though, I got that with Thai Drag Race and at least I'll understand the language in this one
Posted by: LexC 25th March 2019, 07:22 PM
IDK if anyone saw the short lived reality show “Drag Queens Of London” but Baga Chipz/Vicki Vivacious we’re both in that and will probs be bringing the “pre-established drama” of the season. Baga’s also an out and proud Tory voter and Katie Hopkins Stan.
I saw Lydia L’Scabies a few times in Brighton and she’s fierce so her to win if she’s on please!
Posted by: Liаm 25th March 2019, 07:35 PM
oh good christ i retract my last post
Posted by: Cameron 25th March 2019, 10:41 PM
Laurence really should have been on it.
Posted by: Davidson 26th March 2019, 12:03 AM
Some other names that are now being thrown around:
Cheryl Hole (Essex Queen - some sources claiming she is definitely on but still has gigs scheduled, will have to look to see if she cancels)
Sum Ting Wong (London queen - gone off social media)
A’whora (London Queen - did post cryptically that it was her ‘last post’ on Instagram on her latest picture but she follows me and I have chatted to her and it’s coming up that she was active 1 hour ago when I click on our DM’s, so I don’t know if I’m debunking her myself unless someone else is on her account )
Posted by: Doug 26th March 2019, 03:17 AM
Sum Ting Wong is supposed to be hosting a quiz that I’m going to in a few weeks, would be thrilled if she’s taking part as she’s fantastic but if she’s really the host of the quiz then it looks unlikely.
Posted by: Lee_J11 27th March 2019, 10:11 AM
A friend has told me that a drag queen from Leeds called Jake McManus is on, but I’m not sure how reliable that is?
Posted by: 365 27th March 2019, 11:17 AM
I love Cheryl Hole. She's from Essex, but is largely a London-centric Queen, who does a lot of her gigs here.
Posted by: 365 27th March 2019, 06:13 PM
A friend of mine at BBC said this is scheduled for September!
Posted by: RobBob 27th March 2019, 11:57 PM
Ginny Lemon hosted her show here last night so I'd say she's a definite no. September is sooner than I expected but I'm really excited!
Posted by: Jack 28th March 2019, 08:20 AM
I heard Ellis Atlantis was on it? Her looks are pretty good but I don't know about her stage presence.
Posted by: 365 28th March 2019, 08:30 AM
Not tea but Rupaul has joined my gym while he’s here
Posted by: 365 1st April 2019, 10:35 AM
Guest judge tea:
Found out via a friend that Jade is a guest judge this season, and the lip sync is (album version) of Power.
Cheryl is also a guest judge and they do either Something New or Call My Name (I assume it's the latter as Cheryl doesn't like the former).
Posted by: Liаm 1st April 2019, 12:00 PM
Omg at both of those!! *.*
Something New can rot, I'd have thought it was CMN too though
Posted by: Jack 1st April 2019, 02:08 PM
'Call My Name' and 'Power' as lip syncs could be such a moment.
Posted by: Davidson 1st April 2019, 06:52 PM
So these 8 are said to be by far the most likely to be on, with all of them having others fill in for their gigs or having friends spilled that they were on. I wouldn't want to claim they were almost certain, but I would honestly be very surprised at this point if any of them aren't in the final cast:
Blu Hydrangea (Belfast)
Sum Ting Wong (London)
Gothy Kendoll (Manchester)
Baga Chipz (London)
The Vivienne (Liverpool)
Divina Da Campo (Manchester)
Cheryl Hole (Essex)
Vinegar Strokes (London)
Posted by: RobBob 2nd April 2019, 12:57 AM
Yeah, I've seen the first 7 of those brought up a few times by drag queens and bookers in the area.
Posted by: Davidson 14th April 2019, 11:21 PM
So these are the latest rumours about the cast. It is said that the cast is indeed said to be 10 queens and they are looking like:
Blu Hydrangea
Crystal Beth
Gothy Kendoll
Cheryl Hole
Sum Ting Wong
Divina Da Campo
Vinegar Strokes
Baga Chipz
The Vivienne
Mystery queen (apparently a queen who has only undertaken drag in her bedroom, has never performed, but managed to wow with their bedroom audition tape).
This is also rumoured to be the elimination order:
10th place - Gothy Kendoll
9th place - Mystery Queen
8th place - Crystal Beth
7th place - Sum Ting Wong
6th place - Vinegar Strokes
5th place - Cheryl Hole/Blu Hydrangea (conflicting T)
TOP 4: Divina Da Campo, Baga Chipz, The Vivienne and either Cheryl Hole or Blu Hydrangea
Posted by: Doug 14th April 2019, 11:38 PM
Sad STW doesn't seem to make it any further than that 
still looking forward to seeing her on Thursday and even moreso on the show!
Posted by: 365 16th April 2019, 12:48 PM
Apparently Geri is also a guest judge.
Posted by: linds 16th April 2019, 01:26 PM
awww I'm sad that there's no Glasgow rep in there but I did hear it was gonna be London centric
Posted by: Liаm 16th April 2019, 04:00 PM
Other guest judges apparently include Louie Spence (:/), Kylie, Matt Lucas and Duncan James, and challenges include James Bond, Peaky Blinders, Eastenders, Downton Abbey and Snatch Game plus a Royal Mother To Be runway. Lipsync songs apparently include Shirley Bassey's Goldfinger and Kylie's Get Outta My Way.
Posted by: Liаm 20th May 2019, 09:14 AM
Maisie Williams is confirmed as a guest judge!
Posted by: Cucumberella 20th May 2019, 09:21 AM
i saw!! a good score
Posted by: 365 20th May 2019, 09:34 AM
She'll be real fun on the show for sure. I want Sophie Turner too!
Posted by: SAD + FURIOUS 21st May 2019, 04:51 PM
Any idea when this could air?
Posted by: Liаm 21st May 2019, 05:02 PM
I've heard September
Posted by: 365 21st May 2019, 05:18 PM
Yeah it's September. My friend at BBC told me it was blocked out on the schedule for then.
Posted by: HarryEzra 3rd July 2019, 12:46 PM
Jade Thirwall and Geri Horner confirmed as guest judges
Posted by: Liаm 3rd July 2019, 06:24 PM
Apparently Kerry Katona, The Queen and Margaret Thatcher are all in Snatch Game and it's supposed to be the best in herstory !!
Posted by: Lukuzz 6th July 2019, 08:36 AM
Hope we get the official announcement soon, I've heard rumours it will be revealed partly at London Pride and Manchester Pride
Posted by: HarryEzra 17th July 2019, 01:57 PM
Cheryl also confirmed!

As well as Twiggy, Andrew Garfield and Michaela Coel
Posted by: Lukuzz 17th July 2019, 05:11 PM
That's the last 3 Wednesdays in a row they've revealed judges. Hopefully the cast and start date announcement aren't too far away now
Posted by: lewistgreen 24th July 2019, 10:57 AM
MNEK announced as vocal coach, AJ and Curtis Pritchard are on board to help with dances
Posted by: Lukuzz 31st July 2019, 11:21 AM
Lorraine Kelly and Stacey Dooley are the guests on Snatch Game.
Now they need to announce the start date, it's August tomorrow and if the rumours are right it's starting in 4 weeks time, gonna be a very last minute announcement if that start date is correct
Posted by: Liаm 31st July 2019, 06:32 PM
Stacey *.* *.* *.*
Both of them would be iconic choices of character actually lmao
Posted by: Liаm 5th October 2019, 02:25 PM
Omg apparently Cheryl does Gemma Collins for Snatch Game and Blu does Mary Berry 
Posted by: Liаm 16th October 2019, 12:00 AM
Apparently this week's lipsync is Get Out Of My Way by Kylie *.*
Posted by: Liаm 18th October 2019, 09:32 AM
Snatch Game characters are apparently:
Blu - Mary Berry
Baga - Margaret Thatcher
Vivienne - Donald Trump
Sum - David Attenborough
Crystal - Blanche from Golden Girls
Cheryl - Gemma Collins
Divina - Julia Childs
Posted by: Oliver 18th October 2019, 12:56 PM
Donald Trump, really? 
Posted by: cantthinkofaname 18th October 2019, 01:15 PM
So which one do you guys think is the "best snatch game performance ever" from the preview?
Posted by: Liаm 18th October 2019, 02:31 PM
I think Margaret Thatcher is such a genius character so Baga fingers crossed, hopefully not Vivienne given her head as it is but if it's as good as her Kim Woodburn but a fully realised performance I feel like it might be It's a joint win between Baga and Vivienne so it'll be one of them
Posted by: f 18th October 2019, 05:34 PM
funnily enough I think The Vivienne can make herself look like Trump (they have similarities without any makeup already) so at least she'll have the look down. I don't know about the British queens' ability to master American accents though oops
Posted by: linds 20th October 2019, 12:58 PM
David Attenborough??? :') I'm disappointed at the Vivienne doing Trump tbh, going by her Kim Woodburn impression, she could have done a much better one surely? Cheryl and Baga are the two I'm most excited for!
Posted by: Liаm 17th November 2019, 01:55 AM
There's a final elimination in the finale, Baga goes and it's Divina vs Viv for the crown in a final lipsync!
