Sister Sister (born Philip Doran) is a British drag queen from Liverpool, England.[1] They are best known for competing on the second series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.[2]
Career
Sister started pursuing their career as a drag performer in 2012, and cites British comedians Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders and Victoria Wood as huge influences for their drag persona, as well as infamous British drag queen Lily Savage.[1][3] In December 2020, Sister Sister was announced as one of twelve contestants competing on the second series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK,[2] where they place sixth overall. In February 2022, Sister Sister will embark on RuPaul's Drag Race UK: The Official Tour alongside the entire cast of series 2, in association with World of Wonder and promoter Voss Events.[4]
Personal life
Sister Sister currently resides in Liverpool, England.[citation needed] Sister Sister spoke out against online abuse they'd received whilst appearing on the second series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK. In an essay for The Guardian in February 2021, the Liverpool-based entertainer said "Without going into too much detail, one [post] that came from a blank profile described in graphic detail how they would like to see me die." and mentioned that their mental health "reached rock bottom" during the peak of the online abuse they were receiving.[5][6] Discussing their experience on BBC Radio 5 Live in March 2021, Sister Sister urged people to be more considerate online - particularly given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. "The new normal is that we're all talking online, so we have to really consider... how does this sound?," they told host of the programme Naga Munchetty.[7] They received support from a variety of Drag Race contestants including fellow series 2 contestants Bimini Bon Boulash, Tayce and Asttina Mandella.[7]
