6 THE TUCK NEWS

DRAG performer Lady Red Couture, who starred on the hit YouTube series Hey Qween, has reportedly died at the age of 43. Her friend and Hey Qween creator Jonny McGovern shared the sad news on Saturday.

Lady Red starred as Christina Allure in the 2011 musical dramedy Leave It on the Floor, which was set in the world of Los Angeles ball culture. She was also in over 150 episodes of Hey Qween which featured interviews with many different LGBTQ+ guests.

Jonny posted to Twi er that her health was declining earlier this week and she was taken to the ICU where doctors were working to stablize her. Many thought she was stabilising and returning to be er health but she took a turn for the worse on Saturday morning.

Many drag performers and people within the LGBTQ+ community have paid their respects to Lady Red. It’s a huge loss for the drag community and for her family. Support them via her Venmo: Lady Red Couture.

The money from her Venmo will go to her family and help support them during this troubled time.
