La Voix becomes the first drag queen to take part in the main series of Strictly Come Dancing. Fellow RuPaul’s Drag Race UK contestant Tayce appeared on the BBC programme’s Christmas<\/a> special in 2024.<\/p>\n

Discussing her decision to join Strictly with the BBC, La Voix commented: “I’ve performed for royalty, RuPaul and Simon Cowell, but nothing fills me with more excitement, and quite a bit of terror, than the thought of dancing in front of millions on live Saturday night TV.<\/p>\n

“Strictly is a national institution, and I can’t wait to get started. All that’s left to say is: good luck to my partner! Here’s hoping they can help me go from La Voix into La Danse.”<\/p>\n
