She’s back after receiving an open invitation from Mama Ru to return after dropping out of series two with COVID. <\/p>
The twelve glittering queens ready to dazzle on RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK<\/a>\u00a0with their series three debut have been revealed \u2013 including a familiar face preparing for her comeback.<\/p>\n Veronica Green will be returning to the show after dropping out of series two when she tested positive for COVID.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a big blow, BUT thankfully I received an open invitation from Mama Ru to come back for series three \u2013 and I wasn\u2019t gonna turn that down!\u201d she told the BBC. \u201cI\u2019m hoping that as I\u2019m not a newbie, the second time around will give me an advantage. I\u2019m having the time of my life all over again. I love it!\u201d<\/p>\n The GIFs are here already. Now patiently waiting for someone to make a meme of me featuring Loki & Variants ???????????? @dragraceukbbc<\/a> #DragRaceUK<\/a> @WorldOfWonder<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/tL1WYIiAjO<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Veronica Green (@veronicaqween) August 18, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote> She thinks she has what it takes to be crowned the UK\u2019s Next Drag Race Superstar, having proved she\u2019s \u201ca heavy weight contender\u201d with the judges describing her as a triple threat and the fact she\u2019s already won herself a badge.<\/p>\n \u201cI was SUPPOSED to win Drag Race UK season two,\u201d she continued. \u201cAnd if you don\u2019t crown me this time Ru, I\u2019m going to come back again. Another variant of Veronica Green\u2026 I\u2019m not joking. Just keep bringing me back.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n But will Veronica be able to beat the competition that lies in wait from the other Drag Race UK contestants<\/a>? Here\u2019s everything you need to know below.<\/p>\n Age:<\/strong> 35<\/p>\n From: <\/strong>London (Via Rochdale)<\/p>\n Instagram:<\/strong> veronicaqween<\/a><\/p>\n Twitter:<\/strong>\u00a0@veronicaqween<\/a><\/p>\n Strengths: <\/strong>Describing herself as a quadruple threat, Veronica could be one to watch this series. \u201cI put a lot of effort into looking beautiful, and I can sing, dance and act. And I\u2019m a quadruple threat, as I am really good at sewing too. My mum\u2019s a professional seamstress, and she\u2019s taught me a few techniques, so should any design challenge that comes my way. I\u2019m feeling confident. I\u2019m pretty much confident in everything! Also, I cope well in high-pressure environments. Get the job done! That\u2019s my motto for life.\u201d<\/p>\n Weaknesses:\u00a0<\/strong>Like others, there is one game that she is a tad nervous about. \u201cWell actually, I\u2019m nervous for Snatch Game. I don\u2019t do celebrity impressions! I\u2019m terrible at accents and I\u2019m not very good at thinking on my feet, so I\u2019m worried about challenges\u201d<\/p>\n What led Veronica to drag? <\/strong>\u201cMy background is musical theatre, I\u2019ve been in Joseph and The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat for about five years out of the past 10, but ultimately, I found musical theatre too restrictive for my hopes and aspirations.\u201d<\/p> Veronica has a background in musical theatre and has been a professional singer and actor for the past fifteen years. After struggling with an improv challenge in series two, she\u2019s been working on her comedy and improv, saying: \u201cI will not be taken by surprise by an improv challenge again! I am multi-talented, it\u2019s just a case of getting it right on the day. There\u2019s lots of things I can do. I hesitate to use the phrase, Jack and Jill of all trades, master of none. Because I trained to be on this show. I knew was going to come, so I learned to sew for the show. And so putting those skills to the test in situ is exciting but terrifying at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI love my sister \u2013 I stole her name, she is the inspiration for me and my outfits, and she\u2019s had to fend off all of her work colleagues, asking for my autograph and video messages. Veronica\u2019s had a bit of second-hand fame too, which she loves. My whole family has been so supportive, I couldn\u2019t ask for more of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n You can watch RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK on BBC Three via\u00a0BBC iPlayer<\/a> from 23rd September 2021.<\/p>\n If you missed seasons one and two, fear not \u2013 they\u2019re available to stream on BBC iPlayer right now.<\/p>\n RuPaul\u2019s Drag Race UK season 3 starts on Thursday 23rd September.
