Bumpa Love bid farewell to RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under on episode six. However, she’s revealed that there was more to her elimination than what appeared in the show.
During an exclusive interview with Chattr, Bumpa Love said that she was left scrambling after she wasn’t able to obtain the right to perform her intended song in the final challenge where she faced off against Gabriella Labucci.
“I f**king sucked in that challenge! It’s not what I had planned. I actually had a track that I recorded in Melbourne, and it got cleared in Melbourne. But then I had to reapply for the license in New Zealand and it came the day after we filmed so I had to come up with that s**t in two hours,” she said.
“So I’m not proud of that [performance]. But, yeah I deserved to go because it wasn’t my best work,” she added.
So what was Bumpa Love’s intended performance? The queen revealed that it was a track that she’d written called Bumpa’s Away. “It has an R&B feel,” she explained.
What’s next for Bumpa Love?
Now that Bumpa Love’s time is officially over on RuPaul’s Drag Race Down Under, the popular drag queen has big plans in sight.
“I really want to work in TV and film and on stage now because I’ve been working in drag, clubs, my own venue and doing gigs for such a long time now that I’d really love now to concentrate on TV and film.
While Bumpa Love is interested in diving into acting roles, she’d also love to appear in some more reality TV shows.
“I think they need to get me on The Block. I love The Block!” She said. “Or Love Island. I can give some loving advice – just one episode, I can light it up in there!”
