Kitty Scott-Claus
Kitty Scott-Claus is a drag performer, actor and television personality who shot to stardom after cementing her place as a fan favourite on BBC’s Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK.
The lovechild of Elaine Paige, Gemma Collins and Jennifer Coolidge- Kitty Scott Claus is the all- singing, all- dancing finalist of Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK Season three, delivered a performance that smacked with equal measures of cheek, brilliance and genuine tenderness. Synonymous with their eccentric stage name, Kitty understood the assignment when it came to creating her identity as a drag queen- “I have a large array of catch phrases and funny voices- and I realised that whenever someone was being catty I would say ‘Oooh saucer of milk.. this kitty’s got claws!!’ And so that’s how Kitty Scott- Claus was born!""
A native from Birmingham, Kitty trained in musical theatre at the prestigious Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, London and began performing in drag as a member of the all drag Girls Aloud tribute band Gals Aloud, which toured the country and even the West End with a daft and loving tribute to the girl band.
Since her time on Drag Race, Kitty has appeared on shows such as BBC One's Celebrity Mastermind, ITV’s Queens For The Night, ITV2’s Love Island Aftersun and even placed as a finalist on BBC One's Celebrity Masterchef to name a few. She’s appeared in pantomimes up and down the country including ‘The Spirit of Soho’ in Dick Whittington at the Phoenix Theatre in Londons West End and has played ‘Shazza’ in the drag murder mystery Death Drop at the Criterion Theatre and as ‘Sis Titus’ in the sequel Death Drop: Back in the Habit touring across the UK. With a still growing fan base that has expanded beyond aficionados of the series, Kitty has a penchant for putting on a show that isn’t wavering anytime soon.
