TRIBUTES poured in for RuPaul’s Drag Race star The Vivienne today after it was announced that they had died.

Welsh-born drag queen James Lee Williams won the first series of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK and came third in last year’s Dancing On Ice.

They performed in the The Wizard Of Oz musical on tour, and were due to perform in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang next month.
