Speaking to RadioTimes.com in an exclusive interview, the long-time Drag Race judge said that the new BBC Three show is a "fresh" take on the franchise.

"All I can tell you is, the concept, the idea, the way they execute it is so exciting and so fresh and so new and so iconic. I mean, people are gonna freak out.

"I as a judge was so lucky to be able to see these talents from around the world that I otherwise don't get to judge. So having seen them on the telly and then seeing them in person, it's like, 'Yay, I get to judge you now.'

"So it's really, really exciting. It's just, I think people are gonna freak out. There's a lot of twists and turns in that one."
