In other Jamie musical news: Bianca Del Rio puts theatregoer on blast for filming during show!
Last month, a UK theatregoer had Jamie cast members captured on her video phone and Bianca Del Rio was having none of it! The winner of the sixth season of Rupaul's Drag Race took to Twitter to slam the culprit in a tweet that has since garnered over 10,000 likes and 500 retweets:
"Dear blonde b***h with glasses, Thanks for distracting the ENTIRE CAST and SEVERAL PEOPLE AROUND YOU as you filmed during all of ACT ONE with your phone in your hand. This is not a concert, theme park, or even a cruise ship...... it’s THE THEATRE! RESPECT IT!" 🙄 @JamieMusical
This wouldn't be the first time an ETAJ cast member addressed rude audience members during the show. Hayley Tamaddon, who took over the role of Miss Hedge last year from Michelle Visage, was taken aback when a female theatregoer yelled "F**k you!" at her. Tamaddon later commented on the incident saying its never okay to verbally abuse a performer. Given the latest rude episode last month, perhaps a refresher in theatre etiquette is in order.
