On Thursday 30th November, Ginger Johnson<\/strong> was crowned the winner of RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK season 5.<\/p>\n \u201cThank you for everything. I\u2019ve had the time of my life and I\u2019m not only leaving here with this shiny little stick but with the most amazing crowd of sisters I could ever dream of,\u201d Johnson said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not often lost for words but I am astounded. There is nothing bigger than this, and to win is just everything. This is the perfect end to the perfect dream.\u201d<\/p>\n For the grand finale, the three remaining queens Michael Marouli, Tomara Thomas and Ginger Johnson strutted in to the Werk Room one last time, with DeDeLicious narrowly missing out after losing last week\u2019s lip-sync challenge to Tomara Thomas.<\/p> For their final ever challenge, the Angels of the North were tasked with recording their own verse and starring in a music video to one of Mama Ru\u2019s hit songs, Spotlight, starring as cat burglars trying to get their claws on the crown!<\/p>\n Before their big performance, each queen met with RuPaul and Michelle Visage to reflect on their Drag Race journey, and, unbeknownst to the queens, Ru treated them to a surprise visit from a family member!<\/p>\n The finalists then delivered their epic performances to Mama Ru, who was joined by Michelle, Alan Carr and Graham Norton on the judging panel.<\/p>\n Michelle Visage said of Tomara Thomas: \u201cI fell in love with you the minute I saw you at Club Tickety-Boo. You are such a performer, just magnetic. You just have that personality that draws everybody in.\u201d<\/p>\n Graham Norton said of Michael Marouli: \u201cTonight on the runway\u2026 wow. You came around the corner and took our breath away.\u201d<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n RuPaul said of Ginger Johnson: \u201cThroughout this competition, you have tickled us, you have surprised us and you have shown us your aesthetic in ways we could not have imagined.\u201d<\/p>\n Three then became two, as the show said goodbye to Tomara Johnson, with Ru saying: \u201cTomara Thomas, you are a brilliant queen with a bright future. But, I\u2019m sorry my dear, this is not your time.\u201d<\/p>\n And after one final lip sync battle to A Little Respect by Erasure, it was revealed that Ginger was this year\u2019s winner, as the host awarded her the title of The UK\u2019s Next Drag Superstar, and the prize of creating their own digital series with the makers of RuPaul<\/span>\u2019s Drag Race.<\/p> ![\"Michael](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/09\/rupauls-drag-race-uk-season-5-d73b511.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"Michael")
