A contestant on the new series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK reportedly swore at RuPaul before storming off the show.
Series two of the drag contest begins this Thursday on BBC Three, with 12 new queens competing to succeed The Vivienne as the UK's next drag superstar.
According to the Daily Star, in one of the episodes, one contestant reacted very badly to the news that they were in the bottom two and went on to refuse to take part in the lip-sync.
The newspaper says that the mystery queen concerned then told RuPaul to "fuck off" before storming off set and quitting the show.
An insider is quoted as saying: "During filming for one episode, RuPaul announced which contestants were at risk of going home.
"One of them did not take it well at all. They completely lost it. They swore at RuPaul and said they weren't going to do the lip-sync.
"Then they stormed off. No-one could believe what they were seeing. It was incredibly disrespectful.
"Things ended very badly with this contestant. It is all very bitter indeed. It's a shame."
The first episode of the new series is released at 7pm on Thursday on BBC Three.
