Katie Price’s Reaction To Drag Race UK Star’s Impression Of Her Is Gloriously Katie Price

Bimini Bon Boulash’s performance as Katie Price has been one of the undoubted highlights of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK so far, and now we’ve finally got to hear what the woman herself makes of it all. 

Katie has uploaded a YouTube video of herself reacting to the queen’s impression of her during the Snatch Game episode last month, and the whole thing is gloriously Pricey. 

In the video, Katie is seen sat in front of her laptop with daughter Bunny and son Jett as they watch Bimini’s Bafta-approved performance on the hit BBC Three series. 

She then tries to get Bunny and Jett to do impressions of her, repeating her famous catchphrase, “Never underestimate the Pricey.”

And it turns out her six-year-old daughter has got her mum down to a tee as well, perfectly capturing her KP’s mannerisms. 

Katie then says of Bimini: “I think that was fantastic. And [Bimini] is right, I can take the piss out of myself and I do. But I think [they have] done a good job. I’d love to go on that show.

“Like you say, if you can’t take the piss out of yourself, who can you take the piss out of? So I think that’s really good, and it’s quite iconic to know that someone wanted to dress up as me. 

“I’d love to meet them and do a dress up, [them] do me and me give [them] tips and stuff. So thank you so much, I loved it, loved it, loved it.”

Bunny then interjects, saying: “Guys, if mum was on the show, I know who she’d dress up as,” before naming Katie’s boyfriend Carl Woods

“That could be interesting, a woman dressing up as a man,” Katie agrees, before Bunny starts impersonating them both. 

“Are you taking the mick? Right you’re getting in the bath,” she teases. 

Bimini was made up to see Katie’s video, sharing a link to it on Twitter. 

“Ahhhh I love you @KatiePrice!!!!” they tweeted. 

After the show aired, Bimini was sure to reiterate that the impression was done with a lot of love. 

They tweeted: “I also ADORE AND LOVE @KatiePrice and I always have. She’s an absolute icon and I hope I did her proud.”

RuPaul’s Drag Race continues on Thursday, with the new episode available to stream on BBC Three from 7pm.

RuPaul’s Drag Race UK: Bimini Bon Boulash’s Katie Price Impression Was So Good Even Bafta Has Endorsed It

We were left “clapping for the UK Hun” Bimini Bon Boulash after the latest episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, and it seems we were not the only ones bowled over by her Katie Price impression on Snatch Game. 

In fact, so good was her send up of Pricey that Bafta has officially endorsed it. 

The latest episode of the hit BBC Three reality show saw the remaining queens tasked with impersonating a host of celebrities in the iconic Snatch Game challenge.  

After the show debuted on Thursday night, the meme account Love Of Huns posted a clip of Bimini’s performance on Instagram, along with the caption: “Bimini’s Katie Price is truly BAFTA worthy.”

It soon caught the attention of the official Bafta account, who very much agreed, commenting with a trophy emoji. 

With the TV Baftas scheduled to happen later in the year, we’re on tenterhooks to find out if Bimini bags a nomination. 

Drag Race fans are still waiting to hear what the woman herself thought of the performance, as Katie is yet to comment. 

However, after the show aired, Bimini was sure to reiterate that her impression was done with a lot of love. 

She tweeted: “I also ADORE AND LOVE @KatiePrice and I always have. She’s an absolute icon and I hope I did her proud.”

The internet was lapping up Bimini’s Snatch Game, and she was trending on Twitter thanks to all the praise she was receiving. 

And while Ellie Diamond didn’t receive a top placing from the judges after taking off Matt LucasLittle Britain character Vicky Pollard, the comedian was apparently very impressed. 

He tweeted: “Thank you @elliediamond101 for smashing Vicky Pollard! I’m flattered, humbled and still laughing xxx.”

RuPaul’s Drag Race continues next Thursday, with the new episode available to stream on BBC Three from 7pm.
