Dakota Schiffer
You know Dakota Schiffer...
She's the one from Ru Paul's Drag Race UK with the classic 1960's chic, the lilac and peppermint green fur trimmed outfit, the one who did that spectacular Pete Burns impersonation?
She's also the first openly trans woman to have been cast on the UK series of RuPaul's Drag Race.
DIVA magazine's Eleanor Noyce spoke to Dakota just after she was eliminated from the competition, about representing the trans community, her queer twin Harry and what drag means to her.
