Drag supergroup DWV announce split

Drag supergroup DWV have announced that they are splitting up.

The group – made up of drag queens Willam Belli, Detox Icunt and Vicky Vox – came together in 2012 and became known for their tongue in cheek covers of pop songs, such as Wilson Phillips’ Hold On and Robin Thicke’s Blurred Lines.

A series of messages posted by the trio on social media have suggested that their split may be acrimonious, with Vox describing Icunt as “family”, but failing to mention Belli.

Discussing the split on Tumblr, Belli explained: “We never planned stuff really and we just don’t have anything coming up. We were just friends putting songs out who then turned into DWV. I would think of something and then we’d round up and do it (exception- Chow Down we all thought of and Gaycation was De’s idea but we all wrote).

“We no longer have time to make stuff happen like we once did. That’s the reality of it.”

She went on to describe the last two years as a “whirlwind of unexpectedness”, but complained that the group became less fun when they began being paid to promote other peoples products.
