Baga Chipz

View source

Baga Chipz is an English drag performer and one of the contestants of the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.

Baga later returned to compete on RuPaul's Drag Race UK vs The World.

Drag Name Origin

"I was having a drink in a pub in Birmingham and this fella came up and started flirting with me and my mate. I said: "Look, why do you want burger when you can have me, prime steak on a plate?" And he was like: "Prime steak? more like a bag a chips."

I thought you can’t get more British than a bag of chips can you?! You’ve got your Crystals and your Sandras, but I’m unique. I stand out. If anyone else has my name, then they’ve copied it!"[4]
