Divina De Campo: Exposed (The Full Interview)

[@le_bry]

I'm not going to say that Divina was the true winner of series one, because the Vivienne was great as well. But Divina was definitely MY winner. Such an amazing, real personality. And red cow stunning.

[@derekaitken]

I assumed she was winning until she didn't. I am surprised she knew she wasn't going to. She seemed to be able to do everything everyone else in the whole series could do just as well as they could. But EVERYTHING.

[@Dalsemien]

I always assumed that The Vivienne would win, because she slayed that season more than anyone else. But Divina was great as well.

[@le_bry]

Like AS2, it felt like season one was kind of tailored for a certain someone to win. I think Divina's talent took everyone by surprise. It wasn't expected for anyone else to be that good. If there is an All Stars of UK, Divina will be the one to look out for. I personally hope there is an International All Stars, so they can fly Divina to the USA and let her win $100,000.

[@notmyselfusee]

I feel like Vivienne was kinda set to win because she was already linked as the UKs rep for Rupauls Drag Race.

[@scottmilligan108]

@@le_bry great comment. the thumbs up wasn't doing it enough justice for me lol. also, Rupaul winning Emmys non-stop, bitch needs to up that grand prize. I know there's cash tips now, but, c'mon sis, it's been 100,000 for years now, prior to VH1, and the Emmys. She has a proven bankable television show. Mawmas makin' the bacon. I'm hoping for the All-winners season, which people say they'd never do, until she tells them it's a million dollar prize. Wanna get them winning queens back? Dangle a million bucks in their faces. lol

[@jvillan94]

This is why I love drag race, not only does it introduce me to talented queens, it also introduces me to wonderful, beautiful people.

[@Lunatiqua]

I frocking loved when you said "and then The Vivienne won" after she explained her podcast record with Ru and Michelle

[@arielmargaret18]

The silent laughter from both of them was everything 🤣

[@lothlorienbgd]

She may not have won Drag Race (should've) but she won my heart.

[@EyeDigress]

I just want to listen to her talk forever. She's intelligent, witty, and goes on. But I'm there for the ride.

[@joaniec6178]

The mention of the men’s underwear section of the Kay’s catalogue is spot on 😂

[@TrulyNemo]

I wanted her to win so bad, even though I got the feeling Viv was going to win. So relatable and approachable.

[@markymark91286]

She loves a chat. Joe barely said a word.

[@Scott-qz7hz]

That's exactly why I love these interviews - we want the queens to talk as much as possible :D

[@shiroi201]

Yeah he really seemed extra quiet

[@StephenLatimerWoody]

as it should be

[@cheshiregaylad]

Well the video is all about her lol! Xx

[@mizstories9646]

That's why Joe is so awesome. He's for real one of the best interviewers I've ever seen. This time he just kinda let her talk, cause she really only needed a very small amount of prompting. Other times, like when a particular episode's queen wasn't a big talker. He asked more frequent and specific questions. I've watched him run interviews both ways and a bunch in between. He adjusts how he needs to approach each interview based off of each queens personality and whatnot. Very impressive!!!

[@antoniobroccoliporto4774]

Divina is just an all around sweet star...I find her demeanor so relaxing as if I’m talking to a best friend or family...one of you best and interesting interviews...KUDOS💖

[@rockymtranger]

My favorite moment was both of you silently laughing at the same time. I was doing the same thing sitting here watching. Thanks for this!

[@gia4296]

I loved the whole interview!! Love the way you interview the queens letting them speak. My fave part is every part when divina laughs lmao

[@MetteWuns]

I loved the whole thing! But her laugh makes me happy, joyful and hopeful. When I'm down I find a video with her laughing and then my day is instantly better. So my favourite part(s) was her laughing

[@atorwlf]

ombré red wig and a plaid dress? i do think 😌❤️

[@romanvgotti1340]

Such a well versed, down to earth and talented Queen. Really one of my favourite queens of the UK. I hope WOW do a All Stars UK after 4-5 seasons. She is a worthy winner. She can do it all!

[@Clink2000]

I’m ALL FOR EUROVISION!!!! LOVE this interview, and you both were so fun!

[@StephenLatimerWoody]

This person gives a great interview. Her humanity, honesty and humor just *shines*. She looks great of course but i watched this whole thing not knowing who this person is, but I sure do like her. If you are ever on the west coast of Canada I'll come and see you, but what I'd really love is have you over for a visit on my deck and we could have some laughs with me and my husband. You are awesome! Keep it real it looks great on you and I wish you every success.

[@probablyjoeyy]

Great comment.

[@mrcemoss]

Great interview. Love Divina and hearing her talk about drag race and the Voice. Remember bumping into Divina on Canal Street during Manchester Pride. She was lovely and so polite.

[@LightningNotes]

Pure Joy! Miss Decampo is everything politics, beauty, delight, talent, music, honesty. Love her so much more after this interview!

[@markdarmody2760]

my life would be complete if the frock destroyers and courtney act are in the eurovision competing against each other

[@martanazwisko3747]

She's gorgeous and such a joy to listen to. I'm like 20 minutes in and already love that interview.

[@rycariad]

Hello from Wales! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇬🇧 AWESOME interview! Absolutely loved Divina’s showing on RPDRUK, and really excited to see what’s next! Such an inspirational, positive personality… LOVE! ❤️

[@shiroi201]

Divina looks so gooood here 😍😍 also she's truly a class act on how she handled the situation with vivienne here. No bad mouthing or anything and she even said that she still thinks that viv is a great entertainer. Also i agree on the frockdestroyers being ICONIC!! And that the movements weren't as sharp at dragcon 😝 I wanna see them at eurovision so baaaaad!!

[@lauradominguez2160]

My favorite part was Divina talking about her first time performing in drag, with the piece she created and improvised with the pianist at the last minute, you could feel her passion and pride, and I lived just picturing in my head, while she was talking.

[@cooktheant]

Hearing Divina talk about Nina Williams from Tekken is iconic! I'd love to see her deliver that look!

[@stygianrakshasa6643]

At what part does she mention Nina Williams? Timestamp, please!

[@cmortensen]

I loved when Divina talked about why it would make perfect sense for the Frock Destroyers to do Eurovision, it was a really good point and I truly hope they get to represent the UK 👏

[@allthatbex]

[@billyb7852]

Divina De Campo is the Queen of my heart! 🇬🇧 💕 Genuinely felt like she didn’t win Season 1 UK Drag Race because she too British and so the judges didn’t “get” her, and so went for a more Americanised queen with The Vivienne! 💄👄💋 Divina is a legend and a superstar! So hyped for this interview!!! 🧨🧨🧨🎆

[@razmataz13drums]

i dont really agree with you there. I agree that a lot of the queens were not quite 'got' by the judges. Divina was someone that wasnt quite got because of her personality a bit, which is a shame- but as a tv show, its good to have an arc, and she has a good one! But i dont particularly see The Vivienne as American... not sure where you're coming from there. Confidence and polish aren't necessarily purely American traits!! The classic American one wa Cheryl, cause she was emulating more of what you'd expect from an American drag queen- but with british humour.

[@lisamac1986]

@@razmataz13drums I agree

[@Sean-ch6wu]

@@razmataz13drums The Vivienne’s drag definitely borrowed a lot more from American drag than anyone except Cheryl. Of the final three she was easily the least representative of British drag

I love how a queen does her season on drag race and next time you see them they've had bits of work done. Fuller lips, porcelin skin etc.

[@joaniec6178]

As much as I love Viv, Divina was more consistent. She was almost always high or safe when she wasn’t winning whereas Viv had a few lows (and even had to lip sync for her life which Davina didn’t have to do).

[@Dalsemien]

Untrue. The Vivenne had ONE bttm 2 and NO lows. She was top 2-3 or won in every other episode, just look at the official statistics. Divina was safe the first episode, and the 2nd (although she could have been top if she was in the winning team, but she wasn't) and bttm 3 in Snatch Game, the hardest challenge which she failed at. On top of that, The Vivienne did better in the final performance and outperformed Divina on the runway overall. Divina is good, but The Vivienne clearly outperformed her.

[@Zaliiks]

yh this is false lol divina was safe and low more whereas viv only had one bad episode therefore she was winning or in the top every other time + viv did better in the finale so it was deserved
