Bonnie Ann Clyde finished in 6th place on her series, well remembered for her Cher Snatch Game. Dubbing herself the “robbed” queen, she reflects as she gears up to travel the UK with her sisters.

Speaking to Attitude, she said: “Season 7 tour feels different to other bookings because it’s a self-started show for our fans. Off the back of the series, we really felt we, and the fans alike, deserved to have an opportunity to have us all in one place for a big celebration.”

Grateful for the opportunities she has had since the season, she reflects on the bittersweet aftermath of the series amid the current political landscape on minority rights.

“We have to show loudly and proudly that we are human beings” – Bonnie Ann Clyde on visibility through the Drag Race UK season 7 tour

“Being visible in drag is really important in this day and age because of the tactics used by the people who want to see us gone,” she said.

“Fear of the unknown is actively being used to scare people into pointing the finger at those who are ‘othered’ in society, whether it’s immigrants, gay people, trans people, drag queens. We have to show loudly and proudly that we are human beings who are deserving of, and demand, respect,” Bonnie concluded.

Speaking exclusively to Attitude, De Campo opens up about her personal drive to create a safe space for artists and drag creatives to perform without the fear of the legal challenges she herself has faced.

How have you seen drag change over the years, both artistically and politically?

Honestly, it is wild how different the scene is now from when I started way back in 2005, and even more different still from before that. When you think of the shift from Danny La Rue (a bit of a hero of mine), Lily Savage, through to Drag With No Name, Son of a Tutu, Sandra London, then me, The Vivienne, Baga Chipz, to now the new girlies, it’s a completely different art form. Luckily, there is space for everyone, whether you’re cack-ca-ca-cacking or telling wisecracks or making political work.

When did you first realise the drag community was entering a particularly challenging period?

About five years ago or maybe a little more. There were fringe conversations from bad faith actors… we know who they are, demonising drag queens and queer people in the media. Coupled with the economic slow down and stagnant wages, it has meant people are looking for an easy enemy. Queer folks have almost always faced the brunt of that but we rise! 

How have you personally been affected by the instability facing drag bookings in the UK?

The main issue has been getting paid. I’ve unfortunately had multiple instances of having to take legal action to get my money and here’s a pro-tip. The threat of a winding up court order is almost as good as the real thing. Don’t be scared of taking them to court. 

What unique hurdles do the new Ru queens from Drag Race UK Season 7 face that queens before them didn’t?

It’s really tough out there economically, and let’s face it, you can hardly move for drag queens at the moment. So you have got to werk bitch! Britney [Spears] was right! Hone your craft and keep hustling! This bunch are super talented, so they’ll be fine.

How is the Drag Race UK Season 7 tour helping to combat the current challenges facing the drag community?

My self and my business partner Stefan Evans set up Kiki Entertainment to bring drag tours back, with the understanding that the girls are going to get paid. There’s nothing more disappointing as a fan than paying for your ticket, showing up to support your favourite star, and then them not being able to pay their rent or bills because the promoter doesn’t pay them. That’s why i’m here!

Why is it important not just for Drag Race fans, but for the wider community, including promoters, Pride organisers, and clubs, to show up in support of drag artists?

Well we have seen the way the big corporate prides have dissolved through mismanagement and the same with many drag promoters. Drag is a source of joy community and expression for so many of us, and it has a huge part to play culturally. Go see the girls! 

Tickets are available to order now via the official Kiki Entertainment website.
