SPECIAL THANKS TO JO SEAR AT THE BBC

“I love [being on] TV, but I don’t like listening to other people’s rules,” says a defiant Tynomi Banks. After placing ninth on the first season of Canada’s Drag Race, a position that left fans aghast – yes, aghast! – as a result of her legendary reputation within the drag community, the entertainer made her inevitable return to the franchise this year on their second vs the World season, where she was immediately touted as a frontrunner. Sadly, her journey to the crown was once again cut short by a sewing machine, with her concoction for episode three’s AI ball landing her in the bottom for the second consecutive week.
