Former RuPaul's Drag Race winner Tyra Sanchez has savagely swiped at RuPaul after the programme's host slammed the season 2 star over horrific tweets posted following the tragic death of The Vivienne. Tyra first sparked outrage shortly after the tragic news that the Drag Race star, real name James Lee William, had died aged 32 on January 5. After the tragic news broke, Tyra re-shared tweets posted from The Vivienne five years ago.
In the tweet, posted in 2020, The Vivienne penned: "Bet Tyra was fuming when she Realised Netflix Spoiled the win Too. Sorry gal. You Tried though." Responding this week, Tyra wrote: "Yet it doesn’t compare to the fumes of the crematorium." The horrific and distasteful tweets promoted fans to call on RuPaul to strip Tyra of her crown, after the drag artist won season two of Ru Paul's Drag Race.
Yesterday, the host hit back by posting a throwback video from the show during Tyra’s season in 2010. The clip, which included no caption showcased the host appearing to 'slap' Tyra across the face in a scene that was part of an acting challenge during the finale of her season.
It wasn’t long before Tyra was back on X, formerly known as Twitter, and in response shared an illustration of RuPaul, depicted as a puppet and penned: "Right back at ya. Puppet. @RuPaul". In the illustrations, people could be seen holding signs. One read: "Not my RuPaul," while another had the words: "Justice 4 Queen Tyra!".
Tyra then issued a lengthy message via an Instagram story, which read: "I am immensely thankful to everyone visiting my page this week. Whether showing love or showing your a**, you increased my page's reach TREMENDOUSLY. Welcome to all new followers! Two fingers in the sky to those who have left us. Special shoutouts to the ones who truly hate me yet hang around watching my every move. With you hanging around here you've increased the reach by 95%. Silly rabbits. You work for me. It is because of you that my name LIVES on.".
