Kate Butch is an award-winning menace to society who is perhaps best known for competing on Series 5 of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, becoming one of its breakout stars. Before that, she made her professional debut at the age of 11, playing a sweetcorn-obsessed child in Green Giant’s ‘my mum says you are what you eat’ advertising campaign. She won Celebrity Mastermind in 2024 (her specialist subject was Shrek), and played a starring role in BBC One’s The Power of Parker in 2025.

She is also an experienced stand-up comedian, enjoying sold-out Edinburgh runs of her shows Kate if You Wanna Go Butcher and Wuthering Shites, as well as performing in Drag Queens vs Zombies and Drag Queens vs Vampires, the latter of which was one of the top 20 best-reviewed comedy shows of EdFringe 2023. That year she also made her West End debut in Sleeping Beauty at the Garrick Theatre, and returned to Panto at London’s Phoenix Theatre with Peter Pan in 2024. She co-hosts the podcast Queers Gone By, which the Guardian dubbed one of the world’s 50 funniest podcasts, and is frequently seen on London’s comedy circuit. 

She has also worked with one of the Cheeky Girls. Unfortunately she can’t remember which.
