Drag Race UK Season 7: Bones Takes Home The Crown and Sets Sights on All Stars Glory
Bones has been crowned as Drag Race UK Season 7's newest superstar, and she's already dreaming about joining an All Stars All Winners season.
Heads up: Spoilers ahead from RuPaul's Drag Race UK Season 7!
The finale aired on a thrilling Thursday night, November 27, packed with unexpected twists, electrifying performances, and jaw-dropping fashion. Bones stole everyone's hearts and took home not only £25,000 but also bragged about becoming UK's Next Drag Superstar.
Finalists Catrina Feelings, Elle Vosque, Bones, and Silllex Diction put on a show with their song "Money Shot," showcasing lyrics penned by themselves. Meanwhile, eliminated queens came back, and Chai T Grande proudly snagged Miss Congeniality.
In a nail-biting finish, RuPaul narrowed it down between Bones and Elle Vosque. Their showdown featured an intense lip-sync battle belted out over Jimmy Somerville's "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)," where Bones clinched her triumphant win.
"This experience has been out-of-this-world amazing! Once you chuck away all nonsense, it just leaves you with... me!" Bones exclaimed in her post-win speech.
After nabbing her victory, Bones shared her dreams and aspirations, including her desire, perhaps, a bit cheekily, hoping she'd join an All Stars All Winners edition.
A momentous victory reflection
Big congrats on snaggin' that crown, Bones! How are you feeling right now?
Bones: I'm honestly over-the-moon! This whole journey's been unreal, a perfect fairy tale ending. I'm still pinching myself, but it's like a dream come true.
How was celebrating with your fellow queens?
Bones: Magical! Having a chance, albeit rare, with my season seven sisters was precious. We don't get such moments often, so celebrating together was really something special.
Future dreams and aspirations
What's up with your plans now that you've got that £25,000 and new spotlight?
Bones: Expanding my reach in queer nightlife and entertainment's a given! Traveling's top on my list. And yeah, Elle [Vosque] and I are thinking about a holiday, naturally at my expense!
How vital do you reckon it still stands, performing drag amid today's social challenges?
Bones: Oh, it's more critical than ever. As places like Soho struggle, keeping drag lively and inspiring's essential. It's always been a beacon, and it needs its light now more than ever.
The personal journey with Drag Race
How did being on Drag Race UK change how you see yourself?
Bones: It was such a confidence booster! Hearing RuPaul's encouragement was like turning on a light within me. I've always had faith in myself, but having validation on such a platform was what I needed.
And what about your drag family? How's their support been?
Bones: Oh, it's been overwhelming. My phone's been constantly pinging, filled with love from everyone, including my drag family like Krystal Versace and DeDeLicious. It's been incredibly touching.
Eyeing an All Stars All Winners season
Would you dive headfirst back in if they had an All Winners season?
Bones: Absolutely, I'd leap at it! Especially with some ka-ching. It'd be a dream competing with champs from different Drag Race franchises around our globe.
Got a wish list on who you'd love in your dream cast?
Bones: Oh, definitely Venus from Canada's Drag Race and Spankie Jackzon from Drag Race Down Under. With that array, it'd make one heckuva epic showdown!
