Exclusive with Vanity Milan
Vanity, my love? Hello, how are you doing?
Hi, it's so good to see you again.
You can’t get rid of me, every time!
No, and do you know what? I don't wanna get rid of you! That’s what I like to hear. Because we are here Spilling the Tea, with Spill the Tea... that’s T! OKAY!
Now I must say, you're looking stunning. Literally incredible.
Thank you so much. I’m feeling it.
“I’m feeling my best, and I feel like this year is definitely going off to a great start.”

On a whole new level, literally.
Yeah, literally a whole new level. I'm leveled uuuppp.
How did it feel walking the pink carpet earlier in the look?
Oh my God, it was so incredible. I felt my most beautiful self, especially in drag. Last year was such like a roller coaster of emotions, and there's been so much going on that I just wanted to forget what happened in 2023 and like rebirth again. So that was me doing that, and also I'm a Libra, and there are many ups and downs in the Libra’s life. So I just want to represent that and also my new EP that comes out very soon.
[I let out a GAY GASP] Tell us all!
It's produced by Kieran Armitage and written by myself and Kieron. We've worked so hard on this project last year, hence the reason there have been so many ups and downs, and obviously, I'm indecisive as a Libra. So it's taken me a full year to kind of get this project out, but it's finally here. It's finally mastered, and it's going to be uploaded to iTunes and all of the streaming services quite soon.
Nice, describe it in three...
CNTY, Libra, and even more cntiness! Yeah, it's giving what it needs to be given, girl.
I cannot wait, cannot wait. I’m so excited about it. Have you been watching the Traitors at all?
I haven't because I've been planning Drag Con, and I want to make sure that everything's perfect, but I haven't had time to even, you know, eat properly.
But you've seen the last one?
Yes, of course! I lived for the cast of the first season. The fact that they were here last year and had their own booth with Tuckshop, that’s T.
OK, so if you went on to a Drag Version of the Traitors, pick one queen who you think would definitely be a traitor and one queen who would 100% be faithful.
Kitty Scott-Claus would be a traitor, and I think Ella Vaday would be 100% faithful.
Nice, thank you so much, my love. It is always lovely catching up with you.
You're more than welcome. It's always a pleasure.
I can’t wait to hear the EP!
Coming soon...
