Willam spills the tea about his time on RuPaul’s Drag Race

By Fabio Crispim

Willam may have shot to notoriety when he was booted off season four of RuPaul’s Drag Race, but the 34-year-old drag queen, singer and actor has well and truly transcended that initial controversy.

Still for all, he’s more than happy to dish the dirt on some of the less than sportsman like things that went on on the show.

When he asked if he could re-do his entrance to the cult show, Willam claims the producers refused. But it seems as if there were double standards.

“Sharon [needles] filmed her entrance twice and won, wow!” he says in Attitude’s August issue – available to download now.

The ‘Boy Is A Bottom‘ singer also claims that a ‘Lipsync For Your Life’ was changed last minute to ensure a particular contestant was saved over another.
