Courtney Act thought it was "poetic" when her skirt fell off in front of Anne Widdecombe.
The 36-year-old drag star has recalled the moment she entered the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house and her skirt was completely ripped off, saying it was somehow appropriate that the incident happened in front of the former politician.
Courtney – who has previously accused Anne of "bigotry" – told BuzzFeed: "I was otherwise distracted because my skirt had fallen off and I was trying to compose myself.
"It was kind of all puffed and rushy and then I was telling them, ‘Oh my god, my skirt had just fallen off.’
"And they were like ,’Oh I’m sure that nobody noticed, it’s fine,’ and I was like ‘No no no, my skirt had literally [Courtney imitates her skirt coming off].’
"And it fell off again in front of Ann Widdecombe, which is sort of poetic I think."
Courtney also went on to explain how she was "taken aback" on her first day on the reality TV show ‘Ru Paul’s Drag Race’.
She said: "I think the thing that you are really taken by is that you realise it is actually a set.
"I genuinely had always thought, this sounds dumb, I always thought that ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ was shot in the basement of RuPaul’s house.
"I always pictured him up upstairs in his sunken living room and he’s like, ‘Alright, time to go down and see the girls,’ and he trapes down the steps into the basement (a well-lit basement, but a basement nonetheless).
"And then I was like, ‘Wait a minute, these aren’t real bricks! These are just photographs of bricks printed on to fabric It’s all an illusion!’"
