A CELEBRITY from Worcester has deleted their Twitter account after getting into a row with fellow stars of Drag Race UK.
Ginny Lemon, who rose to fame after appearing in RuPaul's Drag Race UK, quit Twitter this week after receiving heavy backlash after using the word "addicts".
The Tweet said: "Some of your most beloved Drag Race queens are vile, bigoted, hate-filled addicts, oh and bullies! With big corporations supporting them."
Before the account was deleted the tweet got 144 likes and 15 retweets according to a screenshot.
TheVivienne, who won the first season of RuPaul's Drag Race in the UK, said: "Let's not use addicts as a slur."
He replied to the tweet and said: "Wow. Thought you were my friend.
"I'm not trying to start anything girl, but this isn't a great look."
Twitter users also reacted to the tweet and one said: "Ginny Lemon was the last person I thought would say something problematic."

While a third commenter reminded everyone to be kind with their words and said: "Ginny Lemon having a weird moment on twitter today could possibly be warning signs that they are struggling with MH issues.
"Don't forget she lost a friend recently. She said dumb stuff I will admit. But she should be checked on. #DragRace."
